Dave Matthews Band Live In Chicago At The Lyrics
1.Intro


2.The Last Stop

Fire The sun is well asleep
Moon is high above
Fire grows from the east
How is this
Hate so deep
Lead us all so blindly killing killing
Fools we are
If hate's the gate to peace
This is the last stop
For raining tears
War
The only way to Peace
I don't fall for that
Raining tears
You're righteous, so righteous
You're always so right
Go ahead and dream
Go ahead believe that you are the chosen one
Raining tears
Oh no
Gracious even God
Bloodied the cross
Your sins are washed enough
Mother's cry
'Is hate so deep
Must a baby's bones
This hungry fire feed?'
As smoke clouds roll in
The symphony of death
This is the last stop
Scream
Right is wrong now
Shut up you big lie
This black and white lie
You comb your hair to hide
Your lying eyes
You're righteous, so righteous
You're always so right
But why your lie
Go ahead and dream
Go ahead believe that you are the chosen one
This is the last stop
Here there's more than is showing up
Hope that we can break it down
It's not so black and white
You're righteous
You're righteous
You're righteous
You're always so right
There you are nailing a good tree
Then say forgive me, forgive me
Why
Raining tears
This is the last stop
Here there is more than is showing up
Hope that we can break it down
It's not so black and white


3.Don't Drink The Water

Come out, come out, no use in hiding
Come now, come now, can you not see
There's no place here, what were you expecting?
No room for both, just room for me

So, you will lay your arms down
Yes, i will call this home

Here's the hitch your horse is leading
Don't miss your boat, it's leaving now
And as you go out, i'll spread my wings
Yes, i will call this home

For i have no time to justify to you
Fool, you're blind, so move aside for me
All i can say to you, men, you neighbors
You must move on, or i will bury you

Now as i rest my feet by this fire
Those hands once warmed here, but i have retired them
Well i can breathe my own air, and i can sleep more soundly
Upon these poor soles, crawled into
Heaven and called it home

And i live with no justice
And i live with my greed in me
Oh i live with no mercy
And i live with my frenzy feeding
i live with my hatred
And i live with my jealousy
Oh i live with the notion that i don't need anyone but me

Don't drink the water
There's blood in the water
Don't drink the water


4.# 41

Come and see
I swear by now I'm playing time
I against my troubles
I'm coming slow but speeding
Do you wish a dance and while I'm
in the front
the play on time is won
but the difficulty is coming here

I will go in this way
And find my own way out
I wont tell you to stay
But I'm coming to much more
Me
All at once the ghosts come back
Reeling in you now
What if they came down crushing
Remember when I used to play for
all of the loneliness that nobody
notice now
I'm begging slow I'm coming here
Only waiting I wanted to stay
I wanted to play
I wanted to love you

I'm only this far
And only tomorrow leads my way

I'm coming waltzing back and moving into your head
Please, I wouldnt pass this by
I would take any more than
What sort of man goes by
I will bring water
Why wont you ever be glad
It melts into wonder
I came in praying for you
why wont you run
in the rain and play
let the tears splash all over you


5.#40

Tables turned again
And you my friend
You and I face each other
Oh time and time out
I know it's sometimes hard
But knowing just oh
That we will get along
Til we're old and gray
And doubled up
We're doubled up, we'll sit
And think of times were hard
And laugh of times when we thought
All it would end, it was all over
Then again
And know that I'm yours 'less rain' - (if you can get this line
email me)
And to leave you out, I'll die
Oh my friend
It will be you until the end with me
Always
Always...


6.Lie In Our Graves

When I step into the light
My arms are open wide
When I step into the light
My eyes searching wildly
Would you not like to be
Sitting on top of the world with
your legs hanging free
Would you not like to be ok, ok, ok?

When I'm walking by the water
Splish splash me and you takin a bath
When I'm walking by the water
Come up through my toes
To my ankles
To my head
To my soul
And I'm blown away

When I'm walking by the water
Splish splash me and you takin a bath
When I'm walking by the water
Come up through my toes
To my ankles
To my head
To my soul
And I'm blown away
I can't believe that we would
lie in our graves
Wondering if we had
spent our living days well
I can't believe that we would
lie in our graves
Dreaming of things that we
might have been

I can't believe that we would
lie in our graves
Wondering if we had
spent our living days well
I can't believe that we would
lie in our graves
Dreaming of things that we
might have been

Would you not like to be
I can't believe that you
would not like to be
Would you not like to be
ok, ok, ok


7.What Would You Say

Up and down the puppies' hair
Fleas and ticks jump everywhere
'Cause of original sin
Down the hill fell Jack and Jill
And you came tumbling after
'Cause of original sin
Rip away the tears
Drink a hope for happy years
And you may find
A lifetime's passed you by
What would you say
If you a monkey on a string
If you a doggie on a chain
What would you say
I was there when the bear
Ate his head, thought it was a candy
Everyone goes in the end
Knock knock on the door
Who's it for, nobody in here
Look in the mirror my friend
I don't understand at best
I cannot speak for all the rest
But you may find a lifetime's passed you by
Every dog has its day every day has its way
Of being forgotten- 'Mom it's my birthday'
What would you say
(Dont' drop the big one)
If you a monkey on a string
(Don't cut my life line)
If you a doggie on a chain
(Don't bite the mailman)
What would you say


8.Pantala Intro


9.Pantala Naga Pampa

Come and relax now
Put your troubles down
No need to bear the weight of your worries
Just let them all fall away.


10.Rapunzel

Open Wide
Oh so good i'll eat you
Take me for a ride
in your sweet delicious
perfect little mouth
thereupon i linger
you will have no doubt
i'll do my best for you, i do
Love
Let's stop to get it going
lost myself just thinking
about the two of us
from each other drinking
begin with the lips
fingertips and kissing
turn me inside out

i do my best for you
Up and down we go
from the top you push me
this is such a thrill
lost in love and dancing
shake your tambourine
you blow my head open
of this there's no doubt
i do my best for you i do
For you i would crawl
through the darkest dungeon
climb the castle wall
if you are my Rapunzel
you let your hair down
right in through your window
good they locked the door

i do my best for you
i think the world of you
All of my heart i do
blood through my veins for you
you alone have all of me
i give my world to you
to you i will be true
too good to be real
smell of something cooking
my soul you're to steal
fool of love we're filling
what you've give n me
for it there is no measure
of one thing i am sure
i'll give my best for you
i think the world of you

All of my heart i do
Blood through my veins for you
you alone have all of me
from you my strength is full
to carry your burdens too
i give my world to you
hip lock so tight
you drive me crazy
crazy is all right
with you looking at me
you make me fell high
every single then you do to me is like i'm drunk
i do my best for you, i do


11.Stay(Wasting Time)

We were walking
Just the other day
It was so hot outside
You could fry an egg
Remember you were talking
I watched as sweat ran down your face
Reached up and caught it at your chin
Licked my fingertip
Wasting time
Let the hours roll by
Doing nothing for the fun
Little taste of the good life
Whether right or wrong
Makes us want to stay stay stay stay for awhile
Later on
The sun began to fade
Then the clouds rolled over our heads
And it began to rain
Oh we were dancing mouths open
Splashing tongue taste
For a moment this good time would never end
You and me you and me
Just wasting time
I was kissing you
You were kissing me love
From good day into a moonlight
Now a night so fine
Makes us wanna stay stay stay stay stay for awhile
Wasting time
I shall miss these things

When it all rolls by
What a day
Wanna stay stay stay stay stay for awhile
Hey love
Oh just groping you
Rolling in the mud
Stay a while
Come on love
Wanna stay stay stay stay stay for awhile


12.The Maker

Oh, Oh Deep water
Black, and cold like the night
I stand with arms wide open
I've run a twisted mile
I'm a stranger
in the eyes of the Maker

I could not see
for fog in my eyes
I could not feel
for the fear in my life
From across the great divide
In the distance i saw a light
John Baptist
walking to me with the Maker

My body is bent and broken
by long and dangerous sleep
I can work the fields of Abraham
and turn my head away
I'm not a stranger
in the hands of the Maker

Brother John
Have you seen the homeless daughters
standing there
with broken wings
I have seen the flaming swords
there over east of eden
burning in the eyes of the Maker
burning in the eyes of the Maker
burning in the eyes of the Maker
burning in the eyes of the Maker

oh river rise from your sleep....


13.Crash Into Me

You've got your ball
you've got your chain
Tied to me tight tie me up again
Who's got their claws
in you my friend
Into your heart I'll beat again
Sweet like candy to my soul
Sweet you rock
and sweet you roll
Lost for you I'm so lost for you
You come crash into me
And I come into you,
I come into you
In a boys dream
In a boys dream
Touch your lips just so I know
In your eyes, love, it glows so
I'm bare-boned and crazy for you
When you come crash
into me, baby
And I come into you
In a boys dream
In a boys dream
If I've gone overboard
Then I'm begging you
to forgive me
In my haste
When I'm holding you so girl...
close to me
Oh and you come crash
into me, baby
And I come into you
Hike up your skirt a little more
and show the world to me
Hike up your skirt a little more
and show your world to me
In a boys dream... In a boys dream
Oh I watch you there
through the window
And I stare at you
You wear nothing but you
wear it so well
Tied up and twisted,
the way I'd like to be
For you, for me, come crash
into me


14.Jimi Thing

Lately I've been feeling low
A remedy is what I'm seeking
Take a taste of what's below
Come away to something better
What I want is what I've not got
But what I need is all around me
Reaching searching never stop
And I'll say...

If you could keep me floating just for a while
'Til I get to the end of this tunnel...mummy
If you could keep me floating just for a while
I'll get back to you

Take a Jimi Thing
Just to keep me swingin'
I'd like to show you what's inside
I shouldn't care if you don't like it
Brother chaos rules all about
Sometimes I walk there
Sometimes, God knows, I take a bus there
I should't care I shouldn't care bereaved as
I'm feeling

Day is gone I'm on my back
Staring up at the ceiling
I take a drink sit back relax
Smoke my mind makes me feel
Better for a short time
What I want is what I've not got
What I need is all around me
Reaching searching never stop
And I'll say

If you could keep me floating just for a while
'Til I get to the end of this tunnel...mummy
If you could keep me floating just for a while
I'll get back to you


15.So Much To Say

I say my hell is the closet I'm stuck inside
Can't see the light
And my heaven is a nice house in the sky
Got central heating
and I'm alright
Yeah, yeah, yeah...can't see the light
Keep it locked up inside, don't talk about it
T-t-talk about the weather
Yeah, yeah, yeah...can't see the light
Open up my head and let me out, little baby
'Cause here we have been standing for a long, long time
Treadin' trodden trails for a long, long time
I say my hell is the closet I'm stuck inside
Can't see the light
And my heaven is a nice house in the sky
Got central heating
and I'm alright
'Cause here we have been standing for a long, long time
Treading trodden trails for a long, long time, time, time, time,
time, time, time

I find sometimes it's easy to be myself
Sometimes I find it's better to be somebody else

I see you young and soft, oh, little baby
Little feet (little hands), little feet (little feet), little
baby
One year of cryin' and the words creep up inside
Creep into your mind, yeah
So much to say, so much to say, so much to say
So much to say, so much to say, so much to say
'Cause here we have been standing for a long, long time
Treadin' trodden trails for a long, long time, time, time, time,
time, time, time

I find sometimes it's easy to be myself
Sometimes I find it's better to be somebody else

So much to say, so much to say, so much to say, so much to say

Open up my head and let me out, little baby


16.Too Much

Straight in, suck up and go,
cool it, swallow, swallow
Breathe deep, take it all
it comes cheap
Push it through the doors
because in between the lines
I'm gonna pack more lines
so I can get down in
Ooh traffic jam got more cars
than a beach got sand
Suck it up, suck it up, zip, suck it up,
fill it up until no more
I'm no crazy creep, I've got it coming to
me because I'm not satisfied
The hunger keeps on growing
I eat too much
I drink too much
I want too much
Too much
I've got to get it somewhere
I mean, you never know, maybe you're
dreaming
Who do you think you're watching
Who do you think you need
Play for me, play more,
ten times in the same day
I need more, I'm going
over my borders
I'm going to take more, more
from you, letter by letter
I eat too much
I drink too much
I want too much
Too much
I told, god, I'm coming
to your country
I'm going to eat up your cities,
your homes, you know
I've got a stomach full it's not
a chip on my shoulder
I've got this growl in my tummy
and I'm gonna stop it today
I eat too much
I drink too much
I want too much
Too much
Suck it up...


17.Christmas Song

She was his girl; he was her boyfriend
She be his wife; take him as her husband
A surprise on the way, any day, any day
One healthy little giggling dribbling baby boy
The wise men came three made their way
To shower him with love
While he lay in the hay
Shower him with love love love
Love love love
Love love is all around
Not very much of his childhood was known
Kept his mother Mary worried
Always out on his own
He met another Mary for a reasonable fee, less than
Reputable as known to be

His heart was full of love love love
Love love love
Love love is all around
When Jesus Christ was nailed to the his tree
Said 'oh, Daddy-o I can see how it all soon will be
I came to shed a little light on this darkening scene
Instead I fear I spill the blood of my children all around'

The blood of our children all around
The blood of our children all around
The blood of our children all around
So the story goes, so I'm told
The people he knew were
Less than golden hearted
Gamblers and robbers
Drinkers and jokers, all soul searchers
Like you and me

Rumors insisited he soon would be
For his deviations
Taken into custody by the authorities
Less informed than he.
Drinkers and jokers. all soul searchers
Searching for love love love
Love love love
Love love is all around

Preparations were made
For his celebration day
He said 'eat this bread and think of it as me
Drink this wine and dream it will be
The blood of our children all around
The blood of our children all around'
The blood of our children all around

Father up above, why in all this anger have you fill
Me up with love
Fill me love love love
Love love love
Love love
And the blood of our children all around


18.Watchtower Intro


19.All Along The Watchtower

'There must be some way out of here,' said the joker to the
thief,
'There's too much confusion, I can't get no relief.
Businessmen they drink my wine, plowman dig my earth,
None of them along the line know what any of it is worth.'

'No need to get excited,' the thief, he kindly spoke,
'There are many here among us who think that life is but a joke.
But you and I, we've been through that, and that is not our
fate,
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late.'

All along the watchtower, princes kept the view
While all the women came and went, barefoot servants, too.
Outside in the distance a wildcat did growl,
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl.
