[Intro] 
G  D  G  D 
 
 
[Verse 1] 
G               D 
It don't ever rain here 
 G             D 
The sun just always shines 
   G           D 
Did I wander here one morning 
  Em 
Or was I left behind? 
 
 
[Verse 2] 
 G              D 
The mist comes every dawnin' 
 G              D 
The heat comes every noon 
 G             D 
The dew comes every evening 
 Em 
But honey, where are you? 
G            D 
Honey, where are you? 
 
 
[Verse 3] 
   G             D 
I'm a blind man on the river 
G           D 
Rowing with the tide 
      G             D 
My skin's cold and my bones shiver 
  Em 
I need you by my side 
  G         D 
I need you by my side 
 
 
[Verse 4] 
 G            D 
The current never falters 
 G           D 
The river never bends 
  G               D 
I sleep here at your altar 
 Em 
And wait for my compense 
 
 
[Verse 5] 
  G             D 
I'm younger, now I'm older 
    G             D 
Than I was when I come here 
       G             D 
Each day I wake up in the darkness 
    Em 
Ready my boat and repeat my prayer 
 G             D 
My boat and repeat my prayer 
 
 
[Verse 6] 
    G            D 
I saw a shadow six days running 
    G        D 
In the shape of a man 
            G                 D 
It's just the shifting branches of the willow 
     Em 
As the wind crosses the bottom land 
 
 
[Verse 7] 
   G                    D 
Your eyes, they can play tricks on you 
       G             D 
Out of the water, the moon appears 
    G              D 
In the river's deep reflection 
  Em 
I see your face, my dear 
  G              D 
I see your face, my dear 
   G             D 
I'm a blind man on the river 
Em             D 
Rowing with the tide 
 
 
[Verse 8] 
       G             D 
I tie my boat up in the evening 
          G           D 
To the branches of a birch tree 
       G               D 
I woke to a shining angel above me 
      Em 
Her wings rustlin' in the eaves 
 
 
[Verse 9] 
G                    D 
Her voice had fell inside me 
       G             D 
Like the night upon my cheek 
 G              D 
The distant plains of Jordan 
         Em                  D 
Lie lit beneath the pale moon's peak 
 
 
[Verse 10] 
  G                    D 
I listen for the whippoorwill singing 
        G                     D 
It's just silence all night through 
            G            D 
Just the sound of my oars in the water 
Em 
Honey, where are you? 
   G             D 
I'm a blind man on the river 
G           D 
Rowing with the tide

G C D C G D 
G  C D  C  G D 
 
 
[Verse 1] 
G                 C       D 
I have a fair love to whom I'm not true 
  C                     G      D 
For this, I've no reason that'd satisfy you 
  G               C      D 
I thought myself a gentleman and kind 
         C                 G           D 
Yet, to her good soul and beauty, I've willed myself blind 
 
 
[Chorus] 
G  C      D 
You are my cutting knife 
 C             D 
You cut me through and through 
      G    C       D 
Darlin', you are my cutting knife 
   C              D 
Your blade is sharp and true, dear 
   C              D 
Your blade is sharp and true

[Verse 2] 
 G                C          D 
She visits me nightly in the dreamy deep 
   C                                D 
Where I walk from door to door with these secrets I keep 
 G                C        D 
Her sweet arms around me, I toss and I turn 
 C                        D 
Her reigns of mercy, holding me as I burn 
 
 
[Chorus] 
G  C      D 
You are my cutting knife 
 C             D 
You cut me through and through 
G  C      D 
You are my cutting knife 
   C              D 
Your blade is sharp and true, dear 
   C              D 
Your blade is sharp and true

[Verse 3] 
 G 
The truth in your eyes washes over me 
   C                 G        D 
As I measure my cruelty to the finest degree 
        G                  C       D 
I built a house for this love that tears us apart 
     C                           D 
There I sup on your trust and I dine on your heart 
 
 
[Chorus] 
G  C      D 
You are my cutting knife 
 C             D 
You cut me through and through 
      G    C       D 
Darlin', you are my cutting knife 
   C              D 
Your blade is sharp and true, dear 
   C              D 
Your blade is sharp and true 
G  C      D 
You are my cutting knife 
 C             D 
You cut me through and through 
      G    C       D 
Darlin', you are my cutting knife

Your blade is sharp and true

Your blade is sharp and true

Old buckskin jacket you always wore

Hangs on the back of my bedroom door

Still set on 10 to burn this house down

Where the sweet fruit falls off the trees

The honeysuckle bloom and the blossom perfume

The cool of the evening breeze

The cool of the evening breeze

The Spanish señoritas twirl

Where the sun spits into the deep blue sea

At the end of the day, with mother moon on its way

You can feel what it's like to be free

You can almost feel what it's like to be free

Had enough of heartbreak and pain 
                           Em 
I had a little sweet spot for the rain 
 
For the rain and skies of grey

But you can get a little too fond of the blues 
 
You walk too far, you walk away

Hello sunshine, won't you stay? 
 
[Verse 3]

You know I always loved a lonely town

Those empty streets, no one around 
D Dmaj7 Dsus2       Dmaj7                 Em 
You fall in love with lonely, you end up that way

Hello sunshine, won't you stay?

No place to be and miles to         Go

D  Hm  G  A 
 
 
[Verse 1] 
 
D              Hm 
There's a place on a blank stretch of road where 
G                A 
Nobody travels and nobody goes and the 
D           Hm 
Deskman says these days 'round here 
 G                              A 
Where two young folks could probably up and disappear into 
G                   D 
Rustlin' sheets, a sleepy corner room 
Hm       Hm/A      G 
Into the musty smell 
D                  Hm 
Of wilted flowers and lazy afternoon hours 
     G   A       D   Hm G A 
At the Moonlight Motel 
 
 
[Verse 2] 
 
    D                       Hm 
Now the pool's filled with empty, eight foot deep 
 G                                  A 
Got dandelions growin' up through the cracks in the concrete 
D               Hm 
Chain-link fence half-rusted away 
   G                                A 
Got a sign, says, "Children, be careful how you play" 
G                      D 
Your lipstick taste and your whispered secret 
  Hm       Hm/A         G 
I promised I'd never tell 
 D                 Hm 
A half-drunk beer and your breath in my ear 
     G   A       D   Hm G A 
At the Moonlight Motel 
 
 
[Chorus] 
 
             G                  D/F# 
Well then, it's bills and kids and kids and bills 
     Hm        Hm/A        G 
And the ringing of the bell 
        D                     Hm 
Across the valley floor through the dusty screen door 
     G    A     D    Hm G A 
Of the Moonlight Motel 
 
 
[Verse 3] 
 
D                 Hm 
Last night I dreamed of you, my lover 
     G                              A 
And the wind blew through the window and blew off the covers 
   D                 Hm 
Of my lonely bed, I woke to something you said 
        G                                      A 
That it's better to have loved, yeah, it's better to have loved 
G                  D 
As I drove, there was a chill in the breeze 
        Hm             Hm/A        G 
And leaves tumbled from the sky and fell 
  D            Hm 
On a road so black as I backtracked 
     G    A     D    Hm 
To the Moonlight Motel 
    G                    D 
She was boarded up and gone like an old summer song 
Hm         Hm/A       G 
Nothing but an empty shell 
  D                  Hm 
I pulled in and stopped into my old spot 
 
 
[Instrumental] 
 
G  A  Hm 
 
 
[Chorus] 
 
         G                   D 
I pulled a bottle of Jack out of a paper bag 
         Hm             Hm/A         G 
Poured one for me and one for you as well 
         D                      Hm 
Then it was one more shot poured out onto the parking lot 
     G    A     D    Hm G A D 
To the Moonlight Motel 
 


 
 Am                              C               G 
Woke last night to that same sound, first I thought it was you breathing 
F                                 C                G 
Got out of bed and went to the window, just as a cloud rushed 'cross the moon 
Am                       C           C             G 
Baby baby there's something in the well, there's something in the well 
 
    Am                           C                C             G 
Lately I've been watching that corner of the field, out where the old black willow fell 
F                             C           G 
Things can seem so safe and sure, but you can never really tell 
Am                       C            C         G     Am 
Baby baby there's something in the well, something waiting in the well 
 
   Am                        C             C             G 
Now I boarded it up myself back a lotta years, it's too long a story to tell 
      F                        C             G 
There was no more sadness, no more tears, and since, I guarded it well 
 
      Am                         C 
Oh there's some secrets that should never be told 
        C                  G 
There's some words that should never be said 
   F 
Now I know there's things in this world baby 
             C        G 
Should stay locked up forever inside our heads 
Am                       C           C             G   Am 
Baby baby there's something in the well, there's something in the well 
 
      F 
Folks in town forgot, now they don't much care 
           C                   Am 
See, quiet years passed but I could still feel it there 
      F 
Snow melted off the fields, summer crops came through 
              C            G 
Still it stayed silent then I met you 
 
 Am                           C                 G 
Well last night darling I did sleep, naked on the dark spring ground 
          F 
Leaves in the trees came alive and spoke to me 
              C                   G 
And I could feel the dirt 'neath me moving 'round 
 
    Am                                     C                G 
Hey the well was torn open and I stared down into the muddy darkness my black tears fell 
   F                                  C                 G 
Stars spread their false light on the earth, moon slipped from the sky and fell 
 
    Am                  C          C              G 
And my love for you came rushing forward, and my fear and hatred as well 
     F                               C         G 
Hell, things can seem so safe and sure, but you can never really tell 
                Am    C G F C G Am C G F 
There's something in the well

  Em            G        D             C 
I come from down in the valley   Where mister, when you're young 
  Em           G C           G 
They bring you up to     Do like your daddy done 
   C                   G       D  Em 
Me and Mary we met in high school  When she was just seventeen 
 Am                       G              C 
We'd drive out of this valley down to where the fields were green 
  
  
[Chorus] 
  
   Em       C       D           G 
We'd Go down to the river And into the river we'd dive

Oh down to the river we’d ride 
  
  
[Verse] 
  
 Em           G      D            C 
Then I got Mary pregnant  And man, that was all she wrote 
 Em        G             C            G 
And for my 19th birthday I got a union card and a wedding coat 
C                     G       D     Em 
We went down to the courthouse  And the judge put it all to rest 
 Am 
No wedding day smiles, no walk down the aisle 
  G            C 
No flowers, no wedding dress 
  
  
[Chorus]

I got a job working construction for the Johnstown Company

But lately there ain't been much work on account of the economy

Now all them things that seemed so important

Well mister they vanished right into the air

Now I just act like I don't remember   Mary acts like she don't care 
  
  
[Bridge]

But I remember us riding in my brother's car   Her body tan and wet down at

the reservoir    At night on them banks I'd lie awake 
       C              G 
And pull her close just to feel each breath she'd take 
    C 
Now those memories come back to haunt me 
  G     D    Em 
They haunt me like a curse 
     Am                        G          C 
Is a dream a lie if it don't come true    Or is it something worse 
  
  
[Chorus] 
  
       Em       C          D            G 
That sends me down to the river   Though I know the river is dry 
       Em       C    D  C 
That sends me down to the river tonight 
Em      C        D    G 
Down to the river my baby and I 
 Em        C    D C 
Oh down to the river we ride     Ooh..

[Verse 1] 
G 
I got so down and out in 'Frisco 
                     C 
Tired of the pills and the rain 
G 
I picked up, headed for the sunshine 
          C          G 
I left a good thing behind 
C                       G 
Seemed all of our love was in vain 
G                  D          G 
My baby's coming in on the Tucson train 
 
[Verse 2] 
G 
I come here looking for a new life 
                  C 
One I wouldn't have to explain 
G 
To that voice that keeps me awake at night 
     C                          G 
When a little peace would make everything right 
 C                      G 
If I could just turn off my brain 
G                   D          G 
Now my baby's coming in on the Tucson train 
 
[Bridge] 
C              G 
We fought hard over nothing 
C                  G 
We fought till nothing remained 
C                        G 
I've carried that nothing for a long time 
G 
Now I carry my operator's license 
                         D 
And spend my days just running this crane 
                         G 
My baby's coming in on the Tucson train 
 
G  G  G  C x2 
 
[Verse 3]

Hard work'll clear your mind and body 
                       C 
The hard sun will burn out the pain 
G 
If they're looking for me, tell 'em buddy 
C                G 
I'm waiting down at the station 
C                   G 
Just praying to the five-fifteen 
C                  G 
I'll wait all God's creation 
G                   D 
Just to show her a man can change 
                           G        G       G G 
Now my baby's coming in on the Tucson train

On the Tucson train

On the Tucson train

Waiting on the five-fifteen

Here she comes

Баста — лирический проект рэпера из города Ростов-на-Дону, Россия, Василия Вакуленко, созданный в 2006 году.Был 1996 год, он уже написал первую песню «Мой город» и собрал группу, которая называлась «Уличные звуки» — Street sound. Василий значился в ее составе под именем Баста Хрю. «Меня с детства называли Хрюшей, потому что разбрасывал все непонятно где», — объясняет Баста.Примерно в это же время рождалось знаменитое ростовское рэп-движение, которое в следующем десятилетии стало лидирующим в стране. Баста был непосредственным участником процесса. И даже поучаствовал с треком «Первый удар» в большом и шумном объединении молодых рэперов — ростовской Касте, впоследствии ставшим группой «Каста».Далее Баста двинулся в своем, более лиричном направлении. Трек «Моя игра» стал одним из главных в его биографии. Вася Вакуленко стал знаменитым на весь Ростов. «Звездная болезнь? Нет, не появилась. Появились наркотики и старшие друзья, реальные хулиганы» — вспоминает Вася. «Точно могу сказать, что эта песня не раз спасала меня. Бывало, хотели лишить жизни, а когда узнавали, что это я, оставляли в покое».Вся эта нелегкая и полная злоключений жизнь стала историей, которая теперь зарифмована в его альбомах. «В 2002 мой друг Жора вымутил у своей мамы денег и мы купили компьютер. Вадик QП сводил первое демо к будущему альбому». Эти самые треки случайно попали к Богдану Титомиру и он предложил ребятам уехать в Москву. Был 2004 год. А спустя 2 года вышел альбом «Баста 1» и на ТВ начали крутить клип «Осень». Московская жизнь Басты неразрывно связана с «Газгольдером». На тот момент клуб только открылся и носил статус самого закрытого заведения в Москве. Но Баста держался в стороне от местной рэп-тусовки. Первым новым знакомым — ее представителем — стал Смоки Мо, а позже Вася узнал Гуфа. «Однажды я подошел к Гуфу на концерте, тот вспомнил «Мою игру», мы с ним решили сделать кавер-версию, которая вышла на альбоме «Баста 2», — рассказывает Вася. Но настоящий взрыв случился сразу после этого, когда Баста поучаствовал в клипе группы Centr «Город дорог». После этого слава Басты вышла далеко за пределы родного Ростова и Москвы.Посыпались номинации, премии, награды и статусы. Второй альбом «Баста 2» вышел в 2007 и стал хитом продаж. Он звучал взрослее и разнообразнее. Выпустив в промежутке два релиза под псевдонимом Ноггано, третью пластинку Баста писал уже в статусе одного из ведущих рэп-артистов страны. Новый материал рассчитал на более широкую аудиторию, а подборка хитов «Урбан», «Ростов», «Солнца не видно» и «Калифорния» уже не в первый раз проверяет на прочность самые большие площадки Москвы.В октябре 2012 года, Баста записал несколько кавер-версий песен Михея, в частности трек «Мама», на который был снят видеоклип. Также Василий выступил на большом концерте, посвященном 10-летию памяти Михея, который прошел 1 ноября на площадке Arena Moscow.В конце 2012 года снялся в ролике, призванном привлечь внимание к дискриминации людей с ВИЧ-инфекцией.Дискография 2006 Баста 1 2007 Баста 2 2010 Баста 3 2010 Баста/Guf 2013 Баста 4 2016 Баста 5, Часть 1 2016 Баста 5, Часть 2

Макс Корж — молодой музыкант из Минска, который легко смешивает в своем творчестве электронную музыку, рэп, пение. 
Он родился ноября 1988 года, в городе Лунинец Брестской области. В раннем возрасте он с родителями переехал в Минск. Получил музыкальное образование по классу фортепиано и попутно научился играть на гитаре. В 16 лет он с друзьями создал музыкальную группу LunClan, которая просуществовала недолго. После этого было еще несколько проектов, но они тоже не имели большого успеха. 
После всех неудач Макс попробовал себя в роли битмейкера, сочиняя музыку для других исполнителей. Эта идея также не увенчалась успехом, после чего он начала петь свои песни сам. 
Во время учебы в Белорусском государственном университете Макс Корж записал свою первую сольную песню. Проучившись в БГУ до 3 курса, он понял, что учеба ему мешает и бросил университет и всерьез занялся музыкальной деятельностью. Он записал песню «Небо поможет нам» и выложил ее ВКонтакте. После чего Максима забрали в армию. Когда он вернулся домой, то узнал, что песня стала популярна в интернете. За это время песня собрала большую аудиторию, ее транслировали в эфире некоторые минские радиостанции. После он начал активно рассылать свои песни диджеям, чтобы они крутились в клубах. 
В мае 2012-го он выпустил в Беларуси первый сольный альбом, а через год уже собрал многотысячные залы. Его востребованность у концертных промоутеров стала ажиотажной, он дважды выступил в программе «Вечерний Ургант» на Первом канале, а презентация его второго альбома «Жить в кайф» вновь побила рекорды — так, в столице Беларуси она прошла в пятнадцатитысячной «Минск Арене».

Скриптонит (Адиль Жалелов, родился 3-го июня 1990-го года в Ленинском, Казахстан) — казахстанский русскоязычный рэпер и музыкальный продюсер.Начинал с создания инструменталов для других хип-хоп-исполнителей, попутно записывая в стол свои песни, оттачивая таким образом свои навыки по написанию текстов.Первую известность ему принёс видеоклип на песню «VBVVCTND», который получил хорошие отзывы и привёл исполнителя к контракту с творческим объединением Gazgolder.В 2015-ом году Адиль выпускает свой первый сольный альбом «Дом с нормальными явлениями», получивший восторженные отзывы слушателей и музыкальных критиков и моментально ставший классикой русского рэпа.Скриптонит работает в совершенно разных жанрах: начиная с южного звучания, он пришёл к более музыкальному и разноплановому подходу как к музыке, так и к вокалу.Весной 2017-го года вышел его второй альбом под названием «Праздник на улице 36». Как заявил сам Жалелов в июньском интервью у Юрия Дудя, «Праздник…» — это коммерческий релиз с очевидными хитами, а «тот самый альбом», или «Улица 36», название которого стало известно из небольшого июльского отчёта с Gazgolder Live от MTV и который слушатели ждали с момента выпуска «Дома…», был запланирован на осень этого же года.В итоге 16-го декабря 2017-го года вышел двойной альбом Скриптонита — «Уроборос: Улица 36» / «Уроборос: Зеркала». После выхода пластинки Жалелов заявил, что в связи с тем, что для него рэп как жанр себя исчерпал
