She's got a smile that it seems to me

Reminds me of childhood memories

Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky

Now and then when I see her face

She takes me away to that special place

And if I stare too long, I'd probably break down and cry

Whoa, oh, oh

Sweet child o' mine

Whoa, oh, oh, oh

Sweet love of mine

She's got eyes of the bluest skies

As if they thought of rain

I'd hate to look into those eyes and see an ounce of pain

Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place

Where as a child I'd hide

And pray for the thunder and the rain to quietly pass me by

Whoa, oh, oh

Sweet child o' mine

Whoa whoa, oh, oh, oh

Sweet love of mine

Whoa, yeah

Whoa, oh, oh, oh

Sweet child o' mine

Whoa, oh, whoa, oh

Sweet love of mine

Whoa, oh, oh, oh

Sweet child o' mine

Ooh, yeah

Ooh, sweet love of mine

Where do we go?

Where do we go now?

Where do we go?

Ooh, oh, where do we go?

Where do we go now?

Oh, where do we go now?

Where do we go? (Sweet child)

Where do we go now?

Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay

Where do we go now?

Ah, ah

Where do we go?

Oh, where do we go now?

Oh, where do we go?

Oh, where do we go now?

Where do we go?

Oh, where do we go now?

Now, now, now, now, now, now, now

Sweet child

Sweet child of mine

When I look into your eyes

I can see a love restrained

But darlin' when I hold you

Don't you know I feel the same?

Nothin' lasts forever

And we both know hearts can change

And it's hard to hold a candle

In the cold November rain

We've been through this such a long long time

Just tryin' to kill the pain, ooh yeah

Love is always coming, love is always going

No one's really sure who's lettin' go today

Walking away

If we could take the time to lay it on the line

I could rest my head just knowin' that you were mine

All mine

So if you want to love me then darlin' don't refrain

Or I'll just end up walkin' in the cold November rain

Do you need some time on your own?

Do you need some time all alone?

Ooh, everybody needs some time on their own

Ooh, don't you know you need some time all alone

I know it's hard to keep an open heart

When even friends seem out to harm you

But if you could heal a broken heart

Wouldn't time be out to charm you?

Oh, oh, oh

Sometimes I need some time on my own

Sometimes I need some time all alone

Ooh, everybody needs some time on their own

Ooh, don't you know you need some time all alone

And when your fears subside

And shadows still remain, oh yeah

I know that you can love me when there's no one left to blame

So never mind the darkness, we still can find a way

Cause nothin' lasts forever, even cold November rain

Don't ya think that you need somebody?

Don't ya think that you need someone?

Everybody needs somebody

You're not the only one

You're not the only one

Don't ya think that you need somebody?

Don't ya think that you need someone?

Everybody needs somebody

You're not the only one

You're not the only one

Don't ya think that you need somebody?

Don't ya think that you need someone?

Everybody needs somebody

You're not the only one

You're not the only one

Don't ya think that you need somebody?

Don't ya think that you need someone?

Everybody needs somebody

Talk to me softly

There's something in your eyes

Don't hang your head in sorrow

And please don't cry

I know how you feel inside I've

I've been there before

Somethin's changin' inside you

And don't you know

Don't you cry tonight

I still love you, baby

Don't you cry tonight

Don't you cry tonight

There's a heaven above you, baby

And don't you cry tonight

Give me a whisper

And give me a sigh

Give me a kiss before you

Tell me goodbye

Don't you take it so hard now

And please don't take it so bad

I'll still be thinkin' of you

And the times we had, baby

And don't you cry tonight

Don't you cry tonight

Don't you cry tonight

There's a heaven above you, baby

And don't you cry tonight

And please remember

That I never lied

Oh and please remember

How I felt inside now, honey

You gotta make it your own way

But you'll be alright now, sugar

You'll feel better tomorrow

Come the morning light now, baby

And don't you cry tonight

And don't you cry tonight

And don't you cry tonight

There's a heaven above you, baby

And don't you cry

Don't you ever cry, cry, cry

Don't you cry tonight

Baby, maybe someday

Don't you cry

Don't you ever cry, cry cry

Don't you cry

Tonight

One, two, one, two, three, four

Shed a tear 'cause I'm missin' you

I'm still alright to smile

Girl, I think about you every day now

Was a time when I wasn't sure

But you set my mind at ease

There is no doubt you're in my heart now

Said "woman take it slow, and it'll work itself out fine"

All we need is just a little patience

Said "sugar make it slow and we'll come together fine"

All we need is just a little patience (Patience)

Mm, yeah

I sit here on the stairs

Cause I'd rather be alone

If I can't have you right now, I'll wait dear

Sometimes I get so tense but I can't speed up the time

But you know love there's one more thing to consider

Said "woman take it slow and things will be just fine"

You and I'll just use a little patience

Said "sugar take the time 'cause the lights are shining bright"

You and I've got what it takes to make it

We won't fake it, I'll never break it

Cause I can't take it

Little patience, mm yeah, mm yeah

Need a little patience, yeah

Just a little patience, yeah

Some more patience, yeah (I've been walking the streets at night)

Just trying to get it right (A little patience, yeah)

It's hard to see with so many around

You know I don't like being stuck in the crowd (Could use some patience, yeah)

And the streets don't change but maybe the names

I ain't got time for the game 'cause I need you (Gotta have more patience, yeah)

Yeah, yeah, yeah but I need you (All need more patience)

Oh, I need you (All need some patience)

Oh, I need you (Just a little patience)

Ooh this time (Is all you need)

Take me down to the paradise city

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Take me home (oh, won't you please take me home)

Take me down to the paradise city

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Take me home (oh, won't you please take me home)

Just a urchin livin' under the street

I'm a hard case that's tough to beat

I'm your charity case so buy me something to eat

I'll pay you at another time

Take it to the end of the line

Rags to riches or so they say

Ya gotta keep pushin' for the fortune and fame

You know it's all a gamble when it's just a game

Ya treat it like a capital crime

Everybody's doin' the time

Take me down to the paradise city

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Oh, won't you please take me home

Take me down to the paradise city

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Take me home

Strapped in the chair of the city's gas chamber

Why I'm here I can't quite remember

The surgeon general says it's hazardous to breathe

I'd have another cigarette but I can't see

Tell me who you're gonna believe

Take me down to the paradise city

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Take me home, yeah yeah

Take me down to the paradise city

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Oh, won't you please take me home, yeah yeah

So far away

So far away

So far away

So far away

Captain America's been torn apart

Now he's a court jester with a broken heart

He said "turn me around and take me back to the start"

I must be losing my mind "are you blind?"

I've seen it all a million times

Take me down to the paradise city

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Take me home, yeah yeah

Take me down to the paradise city

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Oh, won't you please take me home

Take me down to the paradise city

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Take me home, yeah yeah

Take me down to the paradise city

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Oh, won't you please take me home

I wanna go, I wanna go

Oh, won't you please take me home

I wanna see how good it can be

Oh, won't you please take me home

Take me down to the paradise city

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Take me home

Take me down to the paradise city

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Oh, won't you please take me home

Take me down, lead me 'round

Oh, won't you please take me home

I wanna see, what a woman can be

I want to take you home

Take me down to the paradise city

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Oh, won't you please take me home

I wanna go, I wanna know

Oh, won't you please take me home, yeah baby

Oh my god

Jump

Welcome to the jungle, we've got fun and games

We got everything you want honey, we know the names

We are the people that can find whatever you may need

If you got the money, honey, we got your disease

In the jungle, welcome to the jungle

Watch it bring you to your sha-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n knees, knees

Mwah, I, I wanna watch you bleed

Welcome to the jungle, we take it day by day

If you want it you're gonna bleed but it's the price to pay

And you're a very sexy girl who's very hard to please

You can taste the bright lights but you won't get there for free

In the jungle, welcome to the jungle

Feel my, my, my, my serpentine

Ooh, ah, I want to hear you scream

Welcome to the jungle, it gets worse here every day

You learn to live like an animal in the jungle where we play

If you got a hunger for what you see you'll take it eventually

You can have anything you want but you better not take it from me

In the jungle, welcome to the jungle

Watch it bring you to your sha-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-knees, knees

Mwah, I'm gonna watch you bleed

And when you're high, you never ever wanna come down

So down, so down, so down, yeah

You know where you are?

You're in the jungle, baby, you're gonna die

In the jungle, welcome to the jungle

Watch it bring you to your sha-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-knees, knees

In the jungle, welcome to the jungle

Feel my, my, my my, serpentine

Jungle, welcome to the jungle

Watch it bring you to your sha-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-knees, knees

Down In the jungle, welcome to the jungle

Watch it bring you to you

It's gonna bring you down, huh

When you're talkin' to yourself

And nobody's home

You can fool yourself

You came in this world alone

(Alone)

So nobody ever told you baby

How it was gonna be

So what'll happen to you baby

Guess we'll have to wait and see

One, two

Old at heart but I'm only twenty eight

And I'm much too young

To let love break my heart

Young at heart but it's getting much too late

To find ourselves so far apart

I don't know how you're s'posed to find me lately

An what more could you ask from me

How could you say that I never needed you

When you took everything

Said you took everything from me

Young at heart an it gets so hard to wait

When no one I know can seem to help me now

Old at heart but I musn't hesitate

If I'm to find my own way out

Still talkin' to myself

And nobody's home

(Alone)

So nobody ever told us baby

How it was gonna be

So what'll happen to us baby

Guess we'll have to wait and see

When I find out all the reasons

Maybe I'll find another way

Find another day

With all the changing seasons of my life

Maybe I'll get it right next time

An now that you've been broken down

Got your head out of the clouds

You're back down on the ground

And you don't talk so loud

An you don't walk so proud

Any more, and what for

Well I jumped into the river

Too many times to make it home

I'm out here on my own, an drifting all alone

If it doesn't show give it time

To read between the lines

Cause I see the storm getting closer

And the waves they get so high

Seems everything we've ever known's here

Why must it drift away and die

I'll never find anyone to replace you

Guess I'll have to make it through, this time - oh this time

Without you

I knew the storm was getting closer

And all my friends said I was high

But everything we've ever known's here

I never wanted it to die

Look at your young men fighting

Look at your women crying

Look at your young men dying

The way they've always done before

Look at the hate we're breeding

Look at the fear we're feeding

Look at the lives we're leading

The way we've always done before

My hands are tied

The billions shift from side to side

And the wars go on with brainwashed pride

For the love of God and our human rights

And all these things are swept aside

By bloody hands time can't deny

And are washed away by your genocide

And history hides the lies of our civil wars

D'you wear a black armband

When they shot the man

Who said "peace could last forever"

And in my first memories

They shot Kennedy

I went numb when I learned to see

So I never fell for Vietnam

We got the wall of D.C. to remind us all

That you can't trust freedom

When it's not in your hands

When everybody's fightin'

For their promised land

And

I don't need your civil war

It feeds the rich while it buries the poor

Your power hungry sellin' soldiers

In a human grocery store

Ain't that fresh

I don't need your civil war

Ow, oh no, no, no, no, no

Look at the shoes you're filling

Look at the blood we're spilling

Look at the world we're killing

The way we've always done before

Look in the doubt we've wallowed

Look at the leaders we've followed

Look at the lies we've swallowed

And I don't want to hear no more

My hands are tied

For all I've seen has changed my mind

But still the wars go on as the years go by

With no love of God or human rights

Cause all these dreams are swept aside

By bloody hands of the hypnotized

Who carry the cross of homicide

And history bears the scars of our civil wars

I don't need your civil war

It feeds the rich while it buries the poor

Your power hungry sellin' soldiers

In a human grocery store

Ain't that fresh

I don't need your civil war

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

I don't need your civil war

I don't need your civil war

Your power hungry sellin' soldiers

In a human grocery store

Ain't that fresh

I don't need your civil war

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no uh-oh-uh, no uh-oh, uh no

I don't need one more war

I don't need one more war

No, no, no, no uh-oh-uh, no uh-oh, uh no

Whaz so civil 'bout war anyway?

[Verse 1: Izzy Stradlin]

I try and feel the sunshine, you bring the rain

You try and hold me down with your complaints

You cry and moan and complain, you whine an tear

Up to my neck in sorrow the touch you bring

[Pre-Chorus: Izzy Stradlin]

You just don't step inside to, to 14 years

So hard to keep my own head, that's what I say and you know

I've been the beggar, I've played the thief

I was the dog they all tried to beat

[Chorus: Axl Rose with Izzy Stradlin]

But it's been 14 years of silence

It's been 14 years of pain

It's been 14 years that are gone forever and I'll never have again

[Verse 2: Izzy Stradlin]

Your stupid girlfriends tell you, that I'm to blame

Well, they're all used up has-beens out of the game

This time I'll have the last word, you hear what I say?

I tried to see it your way, it won't work today

[Pre-Chorus: Izzy Stradlin]

You just don't step inside to, to 14 years

So hard to keep my own head, that's what I say, you know

I've been the dealer hangin' on your street

I was the dog they all tried to beat

[Chorus: Axl Rose with Izzy Stradlin]

But it's been 14 years of silence

It's been 14 years of pain

It's been 14 years that are gone forever and I'll never have again

[Verse 3: Izzy Stradlin]

Bullshit and contemplation, gossip's their trade

If they knew half the real truth, what would they say?

Well I'm past the point of concern, it's time to play

These last four years of madness sure put me straight

[Outro: Izzy Stradlin]

You don't get back 14 years in just one day

So hard to keep my own head, just go away, you know

Just like a hooker, she said, "Nothin's for free"

Oh, I tried to see it your way

I tried to see it your way

I see your sister in her Sunday dress

She's out to please

She pouts her best

She's out to take

No need to try

She's ready to make

It's so easy, easy

When everybody's tryin' to please me baby

It's so easy, easy

When everybody's tryin' to please me

Cars are crashin' every night

I drink n' drive everything's in sight

I make the fire

But I miss the firefight

I hit the bull's eye every night

It's so easy, easy

When everybody's tryin' to please me baby

Yeah it's so easy, easy

When everybody's tryin' to please me

So easy

But nothin' seems to please me

It all fits so right

When I fade into the night

See me hit you

You fall down

I see standin' there

You think you're so cool

Why don't you just

Fuck off

Ya get nothin' for nothin'

If that's what ya do

Turn around bitch I got a use for you

Besides you ain't got nothin' better to do

And I'm bored

It's so easy, easy

When everybody's tryin' to please me baby

It's so easy, easy

When everybody's tryin' to please me

So easy

But nothin' seems to please me

It all fits so right

When I fade into the night

So come with me

Don't ask me where 'cause I don't know

I'll try ta please you

I ain't got no money but it goes to show

It's so easy

So fucking easy

It's so easy

So damn easy

It's so easy

So fucking easy

It's so easy

Oh, it's so easy

It's so easy

So fucking easy

It's so easy

When you were young and your heart

Was an open book

You used to say live and let live

(You know you did)

(You know you did)

(You know you did)

But if this ever changin' world

In which we're livin'

Makes you give in and cry

Say live and let die

Live and let die

What did it matter to ya

When you got a job to do you got to do it well

You got to give the other fella hell

You used to say live and let live

(You know you did)

(You know you did)

(You know you did)

But if this ever changin' world

In which we're livin'

Makes you give in and cry

Say live and let die

Live and let die

And now I don't know why

She wouldn't say goodbye

But then it seems that I

Had seen it in her eyes

And it might not be wise

I'd still have to try

With all the love I have inside

I can't deny

I just can't let it die

Cause her heart's just like mine

She holds her pain inside

So if you ask me why

She wouldn't say goodbye

I know somewhere inside

There is a special light

Still shining bright

And even on the darkest night

She can't deny

So if she's somewhere near me

I hope to God she hears me

There's no one else

Could ever make me feel

I'm so alive

I hoped she'd never leave me

Please God you must believe me

I've searched the universe

And found myself

Within' her eyes

No matter how I try

They say it's all a lie

So what's the use of my

Confessions to a crime

Of passions that won't die

In my heart

So if she's somewhere near me

I hope to God she hears me

There's no one else

Could ever make me feel

I'm so alive

I hoped she'd never leave me

Please God you must believe me

I've searched the universe

And found myself

Within' her eyes

So if she's somewhere near me

I hope to God she hears me

There's no one else

Could ever make me feel

I'm so alive

I hoped she'd never leave me

Please God you must believe me

I've searched the universe

And found myself

Within' her eyes

And now I don't know why

She wouldn't say goodbye

It just might be that I

Had seen it in her eyes

And now it seems that I

Gave up my ghost of pride

I'll never say goodbye

Yesterday, there was so many things

I was never told

Now that I'm startin' to learn

I feel I'm growin' old

Cause yesterday's got nothin' for me

Old pictures that I'll always see

Time just fades the pages

In my book of memories

Prayers in my pocket

And no hand in destiny

I'll keep on movin' along

With no time to plant my feet

Cause yesterday's got nothin' for me

Old pictures that I'll always see

Some things could be better

If we'd all just let them be

Yesterday's got nothin' for me

Yesterday's got nothin' for me

Got nothin' for me

Yesterday there were so many things

I was never shown

Suddenly this time I found

I'm on the streets and I'm all alone

Yesterday's got nothin' for me

Old pictures that I'll always see

I ain't got time to reminisce old novelties

Yesterday's got nothin' for me

Yesterday's got nothin' for me

Yesterday's got nothin' for me

Yesterday

Yesterday

Sick of this life

Not that you'd care

I'm not the only one

With whom these feelings I share

Nobody understands

Quite why we're here

We're searchin' for answers

That never appear

But maybe if I looked real hard I'd

I'd see your tryin' too

To understand this life

That we're all goin' through

(Then when she said she was gonna like wreck my car

I didn't know what to do)

Sometimes I feel like I'm beatin' a dead horse

And I don't know why you'd be bringin' me down

I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more

It may sound funny but you'd think by now

I'd be smilin'

I guess some things never change

Never change

I met an old cowboy

I saw the look in his eyes

Somethin' tells me he's been here before

Cause experience makes you wise

I was only a small child

When the thought first came to me

That I'm a son of a gun and the gun of a son

That brought back the devil in me

But sometimes I feel like I'm beatin' a dead horse

I don't know why you'd be bringin' me down

I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more

It may sound funny but you'd think by now

I'd be smilin'

I guess some things never change

Never change

I ain't quite what you'd call an old soul

Still wet behind the ears

I been around this track a couple o' times

But now the dust is startin' to clear

Oh yeah

Sometimes I feel like I'm beatin' a dead horse

I don't know why you'd be bringin' me down

I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more

It may sound funny but you'd think by now

I'd be smilin'

Ooh yeah, I'd be smilin'

No way I'd be smilin'

Ooh smilin'

Sick of this life

Not that you'd care

I'm not the only one

With whom these feelings I share

Your daddy works in porno

Now that mommy's not around

She used to love her heroin

But now she's underground

So you stay out late at night

And you do your dope for free

Drivin' your friends crazy

With your life's insanity

Well, well, well you just can't tell

Well, well, well my Michelle

Sowin' all your wild oats

In another's luxuries

Yesterday was Tuesday

Maybe Thursday you can sleep

But school starts much too early

And this hotel wasn't free

So party till your connection call

Honey I'll return the key

Well, well, well you just can't tell

Well, well, well my Michelle

Well, well, well you never can tell

Well, well, well my Michelle

Everyone needs love

You know that it's true

Someday you'll find someone

That'll fall in love with you

But oh the time it takes

When you're all alone

Someday you'll find someone

That you can call your own but till then ya better

Now you're clean and so discreet

I won't say a word

But most of all this song is true

Case you haven't heard

So c'mon and stop your cryin'

Cause we both know money burns

Honey don't stop tryin' and you'll get what you deserve

Well, well, well you just can't tell

Well, well, well my Michelle

Well, well, well you never can tell

Well, well, well my Michelle

My my my Michele

My my my Michele

My my my Michele

My my my Michele

Michelle

Wanna tell you a story

Bout a woman I know

When it comes to lovin'

Oh she steals the show

She ain't exactly pretty

Ain't exactly small

Forty-two, thirty-nine, fifty-six

You could say she's got it all

Never had a woman

Never had a woman like you

Doing all the things

Doing all the things you do

Ain't no fairy story

Ain't no skin and bone

But you give it all you got

Weighing in at nineteen stone

You're a whole lotta woman

A whole lotta woman

Whole lotta Rosie

And you're a whole lotta woman

Oh honey you can do it

Do it to me all night long

Only one to turn

Only one to turn me on

All through the night time

And right around the clock

To my surprise

Rosie never stops
