Baby Come Back - Player (Video, Lyrics, Chords)

Esta fue una de las primeras canciones que escuché allá por el año 1977.

Hasta el día de hoy, cuando la escucho 30 años después me doy cuenta que la canción no ha envejecido sino que sigue igual de poderosa.

BABY COME BACK - Player

|2/4 NC |4/4 Ab/Bb                             |Gm             |
Spending     all my nights, all my money going out on the town
|Ab/Bb                                  |Gm      
Doing anything just to get you off of my mind
      |Ab/Bb                              |Gm             |
But when the morning comes, I'm right back where I started again
|Ab/Bb                                  |Cm7      
Trying to forget you is just a waste of time

Baby come back, any kind of fool could see
  |Fm7         Gm7                  |Cm7 Bb/D Cm7 Fm7 Cm7 Gm7|
There was something in everything about you

Baby come back, you can blame it all on me

I was wrong, and I just can't live without you

|Ab/Bb                          |Gm             |
All day long, wearing a mask of false bravado
|Ab/Bb                                  |Gm  
Trying to keep up the smile that hides a tear
   |Ab/Bb                          |Gm             |
But as the sun goes down, I get that empty feeling again
|Ab/Bb                         |Cm7      
How I wish to God that you were here

Baby come back.....

|Bb       |

Now that I put it all together
|Gbmaj7                       |Dbmaj7       |
Give me the chance to make you see
|Gbmaj7                  |Fm7         Bb        |
Have you used up all the love in your heart
|Bb                              |Bb                   |

Summer of 69 - Bryan Adams (Video, Lyrics & Chords)

Esta es una de la mejores canciones de rock de los ochentas, hasta el día de hoy sigue resonando en mis oídos.

Bryan Adams siguió haciendo canciones extraordinarias pero ninguna me sube la adrenalina como esta.

Summer Of '69

D-I got my first real six-string
A-Bought it at the five-and-dime
D- Played it till my fingers bled
A -It was the summer of '69

D-Me and some guys from school
A-Had a band and we tried real hard
D -Jimmy quit and Jody got married
A-I shoulda known we'd never get far

Bm -Oh when I
A- look back now
D - That summer seemed to
G-last forever
Bm - And if I
A-had the choice
D -Ya I'd always
G-wanna be there
Bm - Those were the best days of my life- D

D -Ain't no use in complainin'
A -When you got a job to do
D - Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in
A -And that's when I met you

Standin' on your Mama's porch
You told me that you'd wait forever
Oh and when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life
Back in the summer of '69

F-Man we were-Bm- killin' time
We were -C-young and restless
We -Bm- needed to unwind
F-I guess -Bm-nothin' can last
fore-C-ver - forever, no

And now the times are changin'
Look at everything that's come and gone
Sometimes when I play that old six-string
I think about ya wonder what went wrong

Standin' on your Mama's porch
You told me it would last forever
Oh the way you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life
Back in the summer of '69

Christopher Cross - Ride like the Wind (Video, Lyrics & Chords)

Era el año 1982 y yo estaba viviendo en San Antonio, Texas, ciudad de los Spurs; ese día estaba en el estadio viendolos jugar, cuando en el intermedio anunciaron que Chistopher Cross, que es de esa ciudad, estaba en el estadio, todas las personas se pusieron de pie y aplaudieron.

Veamos el video de Ride Like the Wind cantado a dúo con Michael McDonald

I was no where in sight when the church bells rang.

Celebrando los 30 años de Saturday Night Fever

Wow ya han pasado 30 años de Saturday Night Fever, la película que marcó mi generación.

Recuerdo que en las fiestas los jóvenes vestían sus ternos blancos y bailaban como John Travolta mientras que otros se la pasaban cantando las canciones de los Bee Gees.

De esa época les dejo la canción Stayin' Alive, con el video, la letra y los acordes de guitarra.

  STAYIN' ALIVE

Fm7                          Fm7
         Well, you can tell    by the way I use my walk,
                   Eb              Fm
         I'm a wom   an's man, no time to talk.
         Fm7
         Music loud and women warm,
                    Eb
         I've been kicked around
                 Fm
         since I   was born.

        
                      Bb7
         And now it's all right, it's OK.

         And you may look the other way.

         We can try to understand

         the New York Times' effect on man.

        

          Fm7
         Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother,

         you're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.

         Feel the city breaking and everybody shaking,

         and we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.

         Ah, ah, ah, ah, stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
                          Fm
         Ah, ah, ah, ah, stayin' alive.


        Eb/F         Fm            Cm7

        

Fm7                   Fm7
         Well now, I    get low and I get high,
                  Eb                     Fm
         and if I    can't get either, I really try.
                 Fm7
         Got the wings of heaven on my shoes.
                Eb                Fm
         I'm a dancing man and I just can't lose.
                       Bb7
         You know it's all right, it's OK.

         I'll live to see another day.

         We can try to understand

         the New York Times' effect on man.

        

          Fm7
         Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother,

         you're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.

         Feel the city breaking and everybody shaking,

         and we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.

         Ah, ah, ah, ah, stayin' alive, stayin' alive.

Barbra Streisand - Evergreen (Video, Lyrics, Chords)

Eran los años setenta cuando apareció esta extraordinaria película "Nace una estrella" (A Star is Born), protagonizada por Barbra Streisan y Kris Krisstoferson; las actuaciones y la música me impactaron tanto que vi la película tres días seguidos.

Ahí llegaron varias canciones increíbles, pero la mejor de todas Evergreen, cantada por Barbra Streisand y haciendo dúo con Kris Krisstoferson.

Bruce Springsteen - Dancing in the Dark (Video, Lyrics, Chords)

Corria el año 1984 cuando estaba de moda esta canción cuando de pronto corrió un rumor en la universidad.

¡Bruce Springsteen a muerto!

Veía a todos lo alumnos con cara triste y meláncolica, tratando de saber como había sido.

Uno dijo en la mañana escuchamos que "El Jefe" había muerto a la salida de un concierto en un accidente.

Más tarde nos enteramos que no había sido Bruce el que había muerto sino unos jóvenes que habían asistido a su concierto.

Recordando ese triste acontecimiento les dejo la canción "Dancing in the dark".

DANCING IN THE DARK
                  
G               Em            G         Em         G
I get up in the evening and I ain't got nothing to say
                Em       G           Em               C
I come home in the morning  I go to bed feeling the same way
                 Am     C                Am                   G
I ain't nothing but tired      Man I'm just tired and bored with myself
       Em   G         Em                 D
Hey there baby    I could use just a little help

(chorus):
D                                                        C
You can't start a fire, you can't start a fire without a spark
            Am  C                   Am             G
This gun's for hire  even if we're just dancing in the dark

Messages keep getting clearer, radio's on and I'm moving round the place
I check my look in the mirror I wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face
Man I ain't getting nowhere, I'm just living in a dump like this
There's something happening somewhere baby I just know there is

(repeat chorus)

Em                         G
 You sit around getting older
C                            D              Em
 There's a joke here somewhere and it's on me

 I'll shake the world off my shoulders
C                     D
 Come on baby the laugh's on me

Stay on the streets of this town and they'll be carving you up all right
They say you gotta stay hungry - hey baby I'm just about starving tonight
I'm dying for some action, I'm sick of sitting 'round here trying to
write this book
I need a love reaction.  Come on now baby gimme just one look

You can't start a fire sitting round crying over a broken heart
            Am    C                   Am               D
This gun's for hire   even if we're just dancing in the   dark
                                                              C
You can't start a fire worrying about your little world falling apart
            Am   C                     Am            G
This gun's for hire   even if we're just dancing in the dark
G
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
