Here's some stuff by 10000_Maniacs. I'm not sure the chords are O.K.
but I tried my limited best. Corrections will be both welcome and
appreciated.

                         SONG: Cherry Tree
                                                                                       
                             A         D                 F#m      A
       		   Over your shoulder, please don't mind me if my eyes have
               D         A                 A                          
	fallen onto your magazine for I've been watching and wondering why
                                   D              A       F#m           
	your face is changing with every line you read.   All those  lines
            C#m       A       C#m         F#m               C#m       A        
	and circles,  to me,  a mystery.  Eve pull down the apple and give
        F#m            Bm              E           ?  ????????             
	taste to me.   If she would be wonderful,  but my pride is in  the
                                                                     
	way.  I cannot read to save my life, I'm so ashamed to say.
                                                                     
       		   I  live  in  silence,  afraid to speak  of  my  life  of
                                                                     
	darkness because I cannot read.   For all those lines and circles,
                                                                     
	to me,  a mystery.   Eve pull down the apple and give taste to me.
                                                                     
	If she could it would be wonderful.   Then I wouldn't need someone
                                                                     
	else's eyes to see what's in front of me.  No one guiding me.
                                                                     
       		   It makes me humble to be so green at what every kid  can
                                                                     
	do  when he learns A to Z,  but all those lines and  circles  just
                                                                     
	frighten  me and I fear that I'll be trampled if you  don't  reach
                                                                     
	for  me.   Before I run I'll have to take a fall.   And then  pick
                                                                     
	myself up,  so slowly I'll devour every one of those books in  the
                                                                     
	Tower of Knowledge.
                                                                     



@SONG: Don't Talk

                D             F#m              D           F#m
       	        Don't talk,   I will listen.   Don't talk, you keep your
                       G                    D              Em        
	distance  for  I'd rather hear some truth tonight  than  entertain
        Dadd9       G                  D                 Em                
	your lies,  so take you poison silently.  Let me be.  Let me close
           A                                                         
	my eyes.   Don't talk,  I'll beleive it.  Don't talk, listen to me
                                                                     
	instead, I know that if you think of it, both long enough and hard
                                                                     
	the drink you drown your troubles in is the trouble you're in now.
                Em             A          Em                    A    
	        Talk talk talk about it,  if you talk as if you care but
        Em                A              D             G     Em               
	when your talk is over tilt that bottle in the air,  tossing  back
                       A                                             
	more than your share.   Don't talk,  I can guess it.   Don't talk,
                                                                     
	well now your restless and you need somewhere to put the blame for
                                                                     
	how you feel inside.   You'll look for a close and easy mark  and
                                                                     
	you'll see me as fair game.

       		Talk  talk talk about it,  talk as if you care but  when
                                                                     
	your  talk is over tilt that bottle in the air tossing back  more
                                                                     
	than your share.   You talk talk talk about it, you talk as if you
                                                                     
	care.   I'm  marking every word and can tell this time  for  sure,
                                                                     
	your talk is the finest I have heard.  So don't talk, let me go on

	dreaming.   How  your eyes they glow so feircely I can  tell  your
                                                                     
	inspired by the name you chose for me.  Now what was it?  O, never
                                                                     
	mind  it.   We  will talk talk talk about this when your  head  is
                                                                     
	clear.   I'll discuss this in the morning,  but until then you may
                                                                     
	talk but I won't hear.
