How You Remind Me by Nickelback

Never made it as a wise man

I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing

Tired of livin' like a blind man

I'm sick of sight without a sense of feeling

And this is how you remind me

This is how you remind me of what I really am

This is how you remind me of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry

I was waitin' on a different story

This time I'm mistaken

For handing you a heart worth breakin'

And I've been wrong, I've been down

Been to the bottom of every bottle

These five words in my head

Scream, "Are we havin' fun yet?"

Yet, yet, yet, no, no

Yet, yet, yet, no, no

It's not like you didn't know that

I said, "I love you," and I swear I still do

And it must have been so bad

'Cause livin' with me must have damn near killed you

And this is how you remind me of what I really am

This is how you remind me of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry

I was waitin' on a different story

This time I'm mistaken

For handing you a heart worth breakin'

And I've been wrong, I've been down

Been to the bottom of every bottle

These five words in my head

Scream, "Are we havin' fun yet?"

Yet, yet, yet, no, no

Yet, yet, yet, no, no

Yet, yet, yet, no, no

Yet, yet, yet, no, no

Never made it as a wise man

I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealin'

And this is how you remind me

This is how you remind me

This is how you remind me of what I really am

This is how you remind me of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry

I was waitin' on a different story

This time I'm mistaken

For handing you a heart worth breakin'

And I've been wrong, I've been down

Been to the bottom of every bottle

These five words in my head

Scream, "Are we havin' fun yet?"

Yet, yet, are we havin' fun yet?

Yet, yet, are we havin' fun yet?

Yeah, yeah (These five words in my head scream)

Are we havin' fun yet?

Yeah, yeah (These five words in my head)

No, no

Far Away by Nickelback

This time, this place

Misused, mistakes

Too long, too late

Who was I to make you wait?

Just one chance, just one breath

Just in case there's just one left

'Cause you know

You know, you know

I love you

I loved you all along

And I miss you

Been far away for far too long

I keep dreaming you'll be with me

And you'll never go

Stop breathing

If I don't see you anymore

On my knees, I'll ask

Last chance for one last dance

'Cause with you, I'd withstand

All of Hell to hold your hand

I'd give it all, I'd give for us

Give anything, but I won't give up

'Cause you know

You know, you know

I love you

I loved you all along

And I miss you

Been far away for far too long

I keep dreaming you'll be with me

And you'll never go

Stop breathing

If I don't see you anymore

So far away (So far away)

Been far away for far too long

So far away (So far away)

Been far away for far too long

But you know

You know, you know

I wanted

I wanted you to stay

'Cause I needed

I need to hear you say

That I love you (I love you)

I loved you all along

And I forgive you (I forgive you)

For being away for far too long

So keep breathing

'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore

Believe it

Hold on to me, and never let me go

Keep breathing

'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore

Believe it

Hold on to me, never let me go

Keep breathing

Hold on to me, never let me go

Keep breathing

Hold on to me, never let me go

the Devil Went Down to Georgia by Nickelback

The Devil went down to Georgia. He was lookin' for a soul to steal.

He was in a bind the way behind and willing to make a deal.

When he came across this young man pickin' a guitar and playin' it hot.

The Devil jumped up on a hickory stump and said, "Boy, let me tell you what."

"I guess you didn't know it, but I'm a guitar player, too.

And if you'd care to take this dare I'll make a bet with you.

Now you a pretty damn good strummer, boy, but give the Devil his due.

I'll bet a guitar of gold against your soul that says I'm better than you."

But the boy said, "My name's Johnny, and it might be a sin,

But I'll take your bet; you're gonna regret, I'm the best there's ever been."

The Devil opened up his case and he said, "I'll start this show."

And fire flew from his fingertips as he tuned his axe down low.

And he pulled that pick across the strings and it made an evil hiss.

Then a band of demons all joined in and it sounded just like this.

When the Devil finished, Johnny said, "Well, you're pretty good, old son,

Well sit your old ass in that chair right there, let me show you how the fuck it's done."

The Devil bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beat.

And he laid that gold guitar down on the ground at Johnny's feet.

But Johnny said, "Devil, just come on back, if you ever wanna try again,

I done told you once, you son of a bitch, I'm the best that's ever been."

Animals by Nickelback

I'm through with standing in line

To clubs we'll never get in

It's like the bottom of the ninth

And I'm never gonna win

This life hasn't turned out quite the way I want it to be

(Tell me what you want)

I want a brand new house

On an episode of Cribs

And a bathroom I can play baseball in

And a king size tub big enough for ten plus me

(So what you need?)

I'll need a-a credit card that's got no limit

And a big black jet with a bedroom in it

Gonna join the mile high club at thirty-seven thousand feet

(Been there, done that)

I want a new tour bus full of old guitars

My own star on Hollywood Boulevard

Somewhere between Cher and James Dean is fine for me

(So how you gonna do it?)

I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame

I'd even cut my hair and change my name

'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars

And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars

The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap

We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat

And we'll hang out in the coolest bars

In the VIP with the movie stars

Every good gold digger's gonna wind up there

Every Playboy Bunny with her bleached blond hair

And, well

Hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar

Hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar

I wanna be great like Elvis without the tassels

Hire eight body guards that love to beat up assholes

Sign a couple autographs so I can eat my meals for free

(I'll have the quesadilla, ha, ha)

I'm gonna dress my ass with the latest fashion

Get a front door key to the Playboy mansion

Gonna date a centerfold that loves to blow my money for me

(So how you gonna do it?)

I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame

I'd even cut my hair and change my name

'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars

And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars

The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap

We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat

And we'll hang out in the coolest bars

In the VIP with the movie stars

Every good gold digger's gonna wind up there

Every Playboy Bunny with her bleached blond hair

And we'll hide out in the private rooms

With the latest dictionary and today's who's who

They'll get you anything with that evil smile

Everybody's got a drug dealer on speed dial

Well

Hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar

I'm gonna sing those songs that offend the censors

Gonna pop my pills from a pez dispenser

I'll get washed-up singers writing all my songs

Lip-sync 'em every night so I don't get 'em wrong

Well, we all just wanna be big rockstars

And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars

The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap

We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat

And we'll hang out in the coolest bars

In the VIP with the movie stars

Every good gold digger's gonna wind up there

Every Playboy Bunny with her bleached blond hair

And we'll hide out in the private rooms

With the latest dictionary and today's who's who

They'll get you anything with that evil smile

Everybody's got a drug dealer on speed dial

Well

Hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar

Hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar

I'd Come For You by Nickelback

Just one more moment, that's all that's needed

Like wounded soldiers in need of healing

Time to be honest, this time I'm pleading

Please don't dwell on it, cause I didn't mean it

I can't believe I said I'd lay our love on the ground

But it doesn't matter cause I've made it up forgive me now

Everyday I spend away my soul's inside out

Gotta be someway that I can make it up to you now, somehow

By now you'd know that I'd come for you

No one but you, yes I'd come for you

But only if you told me to

And I'd fight for you

I'd lie, it's true

Give my life for you

You know I'd always come for you

I was blindfolded, but now I'm seeing

My mind was closing, now I'm believing

I finally know just what it means to let someone in

To see the side of me that no one does or ever will

So if you're ever lost and find yourself all alone

I'd search forever just to bring you home

Here and now this I vow

By now you'd know that I'd come for you

No one but you, yes I'd come for you

But only if you told me to

And I'd fight for you

I'd lie, it's true

Give my life for you

You know I'd always come for you

You know I'd always come for you

No matter what gets in my way

As long as there's still life in me

No matter what, remember you know I'll always come for you

Yes I'd come for you, no one but you

Yes I'd come for you

But only if you told me to

And I'd fight for you

I'd lie, it's true

Give my life for you

You know I'd always come for you

No matter what gets in my way

As long as there's still life in me

No matter what, remember you know I'll always come for you

I'd crawl across this world for you

Do anything you want me to

No matter what, remember you know I'll always come for you

You know I'll always come for you

Feelin' Way Too Damn Good by Nickelback

I missed you so much

That I begged you to fly and see me

You must've broke down

Coz you finally said that you would

But now that you're here

I just feel like I'm constantly dreaming

Coz something's gotta go wrong

Coz I'm feelin' way too damn good

For 48 hours I don't think that we left my hotel room

Should show you the sights

Coz I'm sure that I said that I would

We gotta make love just one last time in the shower

Well something's gotta go wrong

Coz I'm feelin' way too damn good

And it's like, every time I turn around

I fall in love and find my heart face down and

Where it lands is where it should

This time it's like

The two of us should probably start to fight

Coz something's gotta go wrong

Coz I'm feeling way too damn good, oh

Feelin' way too damn good

Sometimes I think best if left in the memory

It's better kept inside than left for good

Lookin' back each time they tried to tell me

Well something's gotta go wrong

Coz I'm feelin' way too damn good

And it's like, every time I turn around

I fall in love and find my heart face down and

Where it lands is where it should

This time it's like

The two of us should probably start to fight

Coz something's gotta go wrong

Coz I'm feeling way too damn good, oh

Feelin' way too damn good

Oh, oh, feelin' way too damn good

I missed you so much

That I begged you to fly and see me

You must've broke down

Coz you finally said that you would

But now that you're here

I just feel like I'm constantly dreaming

Coz something's gotta go wrong

Coz I'm feelin' way too damn good

And it's like, every time I turn around

I fall in love and find my heart face down and

Where it lands is where it should

This time it's like

The two of us should probably start to fight

Coz something's gotta go wrong

Coz I'm feeling way too damn good, oh, oh

Feelin' way too damn good

(I missed you so much

That I begged you to fly and see me)

Feelin' way too damn good

(I missed you so much

That I begged you to fly and see me)

Song On Fire by Nickelback

The first words that come out

And I can see this song will be about you

I can't believe that I can breathe without you

But all I need to do is carry on

The next line I write down

And there's a tear that falls between the pages

I know that pain's supposed to heal in stages

But it depends which one I'm standing on

I write lines down, then rip them up

Describing love can't be this tough

I could set this song on fire, send it up in smoke

I could throw it in the river and watch it sink in slowly

Tie the pages to a plane and send it to the moon

Play it for the world, but it won't mean much

Unless I sing this song to you

I'm dying to show you

This could end happily ever after

There doesn't ever have to be disaster

And all you have to do is sing along

I write lines down, then rip them up

Impossible describing love

I could set this song on fire, send it up in smoke

I could throw it in the river and watch it sink in slowly

Tie the pages to a plane and send it to the moon

Play it for the world, but it won't mean much

Unless I sing this song to you

I could set this song on fire

Sing this song to you

I could set this song on fire

Light this old guitar on fire, I'd still hear the notes

Drown the melody in water, I'd still hear its ghost

Sing it with somebody else, but we'd be out of tune

Play it for the world, but it won't mean much

I could set this song on fire, send it up in smoke

I could throw it in the river and watch it sink in slowly

Tie the pages to a plane and send it to the moon

Play it for the world, but it won't mean much

Unless I sing this song to you

I could set this song on fire

Unless I sing this song to you

I could set this, I could set this

I want to sing this song to you

I could set this song on fire

Sing this song to you

I could set this, I could set this

When We Stand Together by Nickelback

I don't really know this song well. I do like Nickelback and I probably heard it and added it. I probably liked the lyrics more than anything when I heard it the first time.

One more depending on a prayer

And we all look away

People pretending everywhere

It's just another day

There's bullets flying through the air

And they still carry on

We watch it happen over there

And then just turn it off

Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah

We must stand together

Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah

There's no giving in

Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah

Hand in hand forever

Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah

That's when we all win

Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah

That's, that's, that's when we all win

That's, that's, that's when we all win

They tell us everything's alright

And we just go along

How can we fall asleep at night

When something's clearly wrong

When we could feed a starving world

With what we throw away

But all we serve are empty words

That always taste the same

Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah

We must stand together

Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah

There's no giving in

Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah

Hand in hand forever

Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah

That's when we all win

Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah

That's, that's, that's when we all win

That's, that's, that's when we all win

The right thing to guide us

Is right here inside us

No one can divide us

When the light is nearly gone

But just like a heartbeat

The drumbeat carries on

And the drumbeat carries on

Just like a heart beat

Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah

We must stand together

Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah

There's no giving in

Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah

Hand in hand forever

Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah

That's when we all win

Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah

That's, that's, that's when we all win

That's, that's, that's when we all win

Savin' Me

S.E.X.

Savin' Me by Nickelback

This is the 2nd song off this album and 4th song total off of 2 albums, so far. I have plenty of Nickelback on here though, don't you worry about that.

Prison gates won't open up for me

On these hands and knees I'm crawlin'

Oh, I reach for you

Well I'm terrified of these four walls

These iron bars can't hold my soul in

All I need is you

Come please I'm callin'

And all I scream for you

Hurry I'm fallin', I'm fallin'

Show me what it's like

To be the last one standing

And teach me wrong from right

And I'll show you what I can be

And say it for me

Say it to me

And I'll leave this life behind me

Say it if it's worth saving me

Heaven's gates won't open up for me

With these broken wings I'm fallin'

And all I see is you

These city walls ain't got no love for me

I'm on the ledge of the eighteenth story

And all I scream for you

Come please I'm callin'

And all I need from you

Hurry I'm fallin', I'm fallin'

Show me what it's like

To be the last one standing

And teach me wrong from right

And I'll show you what I can be

And say it for me

Say it to me

And I'll leave this life behind me

Say it if it's worth saving me

Hurry I'm fallin'

And all I need is you

Come please I'm callin'

And all I scream for you

Hurry I'm fallin', I'm fallin', I'm fallin'

Show me what it's like

To be the last one standing

And teach me wrong from right

And I'll show you what I can be

And say it for me

Say it to me

And I'll leave this life behind me

Say it if it's worth saving me

Hurry I'm fallin'

Say it for me

Say it to me

And I'll leave this life behind me

Say it if it's worth saving me

S.E.X.

S.E.X. by Nickelback

This song is relatively new to me, I've only heard it a few times. It was one of the songs that my daughter added to my playlists to see if I liked it. She does that for me because I pretty much only listen to Spotify, so I don't hardly ever hear new music so if she runs across something that I might like, she adds it to my playlists.

"No" is a dirty word,

Never gonna say it first,

"No" is just a thought that never crosses my mind.

Maybe in the parking lot,

Better bring your friend along,

Better off together than just one at a time.

S is for the simple need.

E is for the ecstasy.

X is just to mark the spot,

Because that's the one you really want.

(Yes!) Sex is always the answer, it's never a question,

'Cause the answer's yes, oh the answers (Yes)

Not just a suggestion, if you ask the question,

Then it's always yes. Yeah!

I'm loving what you wanna wear,

I wonder what's up under there?

Wonder if I'll ever have it under my tongue?

I'd love to try to set you free,

All of you all over me.

Love hearin' the sound you make the second you're done.

S is for the simple need.

E is for the ecstasy.

X is just to mark the spot,

Because that's the one you really want.

(Yes!) Sex is always the answer, it's never a question,

'Cause the answer's yes, oh the answers (Yes).

Burn it to the Ground by Nickelback

I know a lot of people make fun of Nickelback but I think that have some good songs, even a couple of great ones. I think this is one of their better ones but not the best. You'll definitely see more of their music here because I like what I like, I don't make my decisions off of what everybody else thinks.

Well it's midnight, damn right, we're wound up too tight

I've got a fist full of whiskey, the bottle just bit me

Oh

That shit makes me bat shit crazy

We've got no fear, no doubt, all in balls out

We're going off tonight

To kick out every light

Take anything we want

Drink everything in sight

We're going till the world stops turning

While we burn it to the ground tonight

Oh

We're screaming like demons, swinging from the ceiling

I got a fist full of fifties, tequila just hit me

Oh

We got no class, no taste, no shirt, and shit faced

We got it lined up, shot down, firing back straight crown

We're going off tonight

To kick out every light

Take anything we want

Drink everything in sight

We're going till the world stops turning

While we burn it to the ground tonight

Oh

Ticking like a time bomb, drinking till the nights gone

Well get you hands off of this glass, last call my ass

Well no chain, no lock, and this train won't stop

We got no fear, no doubt, all in balls out

We're going off tonight

To kick out every light

Take anything we want

Drink everything in sight

We're going till the world stops turning

While we burn it to the ground tonight

Oh

We're going off tonight

To kick out every light

Take anything we want

Drink everything in sight

We're going till the world stops turning

While we burn it to the ground tonight

Previous song - Paradise City by Guns 'N' Roses

Next song - Never Gonna Stop by Rob Zombie

You all can make fun of Nickelback but I like a lot of their music so this won't be the only song you see here. This song is probably one of my favorites by them so there's that at least.

Look at this photograph

Every time I do it makes me laugh

How did our eyes get so red?

And what the hell is on Joey's head?

And this is where I grew up

I think the present owner fixed it up

I never knew we'd ever went without

The second floor is hard for sneaking out

And this is where I went to school

Most of the time had better things to do

Criminal record says I broke in twice

I must have done it half a dozen times

I wonder if it's too late

Should I go back and try to graduate?

Life's better now than it was back then

If I was them I wouldn't let me in

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, god, I

Every memory of looking out the back door

I had the photo album spread out on my bedroom floor

It's hard to say it, time to say it

Goodbye, goodbye.

Every memory of walking out the front door

I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for

It's hard to say it, time to say it

Goodbye, goodbye.

Remember the old arcade

Blew every dollar that we ever made

The cops hated us hangin' out

They say somebody went and burned it down

We used to listen to the radio

And sing along with every song we know

We said someday we'd find out how it feels

To sing to more than just the steering wheel

Kim's the first girl I kissed

I was so nervous that I nearly missed

She's had a couple of kids since then

I haven't seen her since god knows when

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, god, I

Every memory of looking out the back door

I had the photo album spread out on my bedroom floor

It's hard to say it, time to say it

Goodbye, goodbye.

Every memory of walking out the front door

I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for

It's hard to say it, time to say it

Goodbye, goodbye.

I miss that town

I miss the faces

You can't erase

You can't replace it

I miss it now

I can't believe it

So hard to stay

Too hard to leave it

If I could I relive those days

I know the one thing that would never change

Every memory of looking out the back door

I had the photo album spread out on my bedroom floor

It's hard to say it, time to say it

Goodbye, goodbye.

Every memory of walking out the front door

I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for

It's hard to say it, time to say it

Goodbye, goodbye.

Look at this photograph

Every time I do it makes me laugh

Every time I do it makes me...
