We Don't Run - Jon Bon Jovi, John Shanks - 3:17 https://youtu.be/t_PQvX5dUnE Take a look around you Yeah the sky is falling Sinners say your prayers This train is off the tracks Nothing is forever when Tomorrow's calling Dancing with the devil To get one day back! ah Not afraid of burning bridges 'cause I know they're gonna light my way Like a phoenix from the ashes Welcome to the future It's a new day "We don't run" I'm standing my ground "We don't run" And we don't back down There's fire in the sky There's thunder on the mountain Bless each tear and this dirt I was born in Run "We don't run" "We don't run" Take me to the banks of your muddy water Where the flesh and blood and the spirit meet Only takes your touch for me to find salvation You're the only reason that I still believe Not afraid of burning bridges 'cause I know they're gonna light my way Like a phoenix from the ashes Welcome to the future It's a new day "We don't run" I'm standing my ground "We don't run" And we don't back down There's fire in the sky There's thunder on the mountain Bless each tear and this dirt I was born in Run "We don't run" "We don't run" (Fire in the sky, there's thunder on the mountain) (Fire in the sky, there's thunder on the mountain) [Guitar solo] "We don't run" I'm standing my ground "We don't run" And we don't back down There's fire in the sky There's thunder on the mountain Bless each tear and this dirt I was born in Run "We don't run" "We don't run" "We don't run" (Fire in the sky, there's thunder on the mountain) ************************************************** 3. Saturday Night Gave Me Sunday Morning - Bon Jovi, Shanks, Richie Sambora - 3:23 https://youtu.be/gdGMhU24EAA I was living my life like a long-lost weekend Never felt nothing, jumping right into deep end I wasn’t missin’ nothin’ that was ever worth getting Never hung around enough to regret it You came walking in late but just in time You ended my excuses with a ten-cent rhyme Your shoes and attitude were stacked way up high I knew right then you were the story of my life. Saturday night gave me Sunday morning Opened my eyes now it’s a new day dawning Think I might have pushed my luck a time or two Everything about us is what gets me through I never thought I’d hear the church bells ringing I never learned the song this heart was singing No regrets I took that step and I’m still falling Saturday night gave me Sunday morning, yeah When you're driving down a street that’s only going one way Every day starts feeling like a month of Mondays You should know I still got something left to prove I know what it takes to get back to you Saturday night gave me Sunday morning Opened my eyes now it’s a new day dawning Think I might have pushed my luck a time or two Everything about us is what gets me through I never thought I’d hear the church bells ringing I never learned the song this heart was singing No regrets I took that step and I’m still falling Saturday night gave me Sunday morning, yeah Remember those nights staring out at the lights Making time with our feet in the sand Making up words to our favorite songs Laughin’ loud with those drinks in our hands And as that boy put his head on her shoulder She pulled him tight to get a bit closer And as the world just disappeared You whispered in my ear Saturday night gave me Sunday morning Opened my eyes now it’s a new day dawning Think I might have pushed my luck a time or two Everything about us is what gets me through I never thought I’d hear the church bells ringing I never learned the song this heart was singing No regrets I took that step and I’m still falling Saturday night gave me Sunday morning, yeah Sunday morning ************************************************** 5. Blind Love - Jon Bon Jovi - 4:48 https://youtu.be/xbJqBflyli4 Welcome to another hard night You made it through another day Sit at the counter counting tips Can't count on nothing else these days Don't wanna go home to the TV Dont' wanna go down to some bar You grab a blanket Pull the top down And go driving in your car Though your bed's as warm as January On this cold December's night Chorus Close your eyes, love Sleep safe and sound tonight 'cause blind love Is guiding every step I take It's one less I got to make Till I find my way home Try love Welcome to another morning The sun's still shining but it's grey Get out of bed now sleepy head You'd give an arm to hear him say Oh, and no one said that it'd be easy But no one said it'd be this hard Chorus To close your eyes, love Sleep safe and sound tonight 'cause blind love Is guiding every step I take It's one less I've got to make Till I find my way home Try love If there's a patron saint of blind love I hope he keeps me on your mind, love With every moment I'm away We're getting closer to the day We'll never have to say goodbye, love These days it's hard for me to feel the sand beneath my feet With this gunny sack and boots on, oh But no one said this would be easy And no one said it'd be this hard Chorus Close your eyes, love Sleep safe and sound tonight 'cause blind love Is guiding every step I take It's one less I got to make Till I find my way home Try love If there's a patron saint of blind love I hope he keeps me on your mind, love With every moment I'm away We're getting closer to the day We'll never have to say goodbye, love With our blind love Blind love Welcome to another hard night You made it through another day ************************************************** 9. I'm Your Man - Jon Bon Jovi, John Shanks - 3:44 https://youtu.be/YU2WxNUit2U When your heart is hungry, When you want a secret you can keep, You know that you can call me, Anytime for anything you need, No one asking questions, No need for alibis, No need for wasting words, I'm who I am, I'm your man, No job that I can't handle, There ain't much that I ain't done, I'll be that one call that you get, When you can't call no one, When the room is dark and empty, There's no need to explain, Baby I'll come running, here I am, I'm your man, We know not to ask questions, So no one has to lie, We both know without hello, There won't be no goodbyes, No promises that we won't keep, No more to understand, Tonight you're my woman and I'm your man, I'm your man, We both know we're lonely, When we hold each other tight, But we won't ask forgiveness, When we walk away at night, No one asking questions, No need for alibis, No need to say those words, Just take my hand, I'm your man. |

Wake up tangled in the sheets Still aching for my arms? The way you move it's almost holy Hoping you don't know you're only All I want is all of you and more The big bad wolf is knockin' at your door, Chorus Who would you die for? Who would you die for? I wanna know, your secrets and your sins, I wanna feel, your breathing out and in I wanna know, I wanna know Who would you die for? Who would you die for?

Aaah check the box
Yeah! Mark this date There's nothing more to say After 30 years of loyalty They let you dig the grave Now maybe you could learn to sing Or even strum along But I ('ll give/ give / gave?) you half the publishing You're why I wrote the song Wow... Jon said he had a lot of stuff he needed to get off his chest but I never knew Richie's departure had such an impact on him. I don't mean to go THERE again but... makes sense. This album's lyrics are some of the best Jon has ever wrote. I don't care if it's a 'fan album'. It's good and that's that. |

Just a detail: in A Teardrop To The Sea, in the last chorus, there's "no bitter goodbyes".
I'd love to know what the inspiration for this song was and how old is this. I really love this song, its dark mood, something we haven't heard for some time from this band. Has anyone already written down the lyrics of I'm Your Man? I don't wanna do it :) |

Yeah, I was a little behind, can't do it all on my own, transcribing is such a drag!
Thanks for your help! First post edited. |
Well , as you know the album has been leaked.

We All Fall Down
Don't be afraid to lose your way, Take that step, don't hesitate, Your time is now, aha Don't be afraid to scrape your knees, On the streets of shattered dreams, stand up and be proud I'm telling you now, yeah Chorus Climb every mountain, How high doesn't matter, Don't ever be afraid to fall, Walk out on that wire, Climb every ladder, Keep your back against the wall, And don't be scared to hit the ground, Cos we all (all), fall (fall), down, Down on your luck, you're feeling small, The little things seem ten feet tall, Watch your dreams fall apart at the seams, You wanna scream and shout out loud, When you sit up they knock you down, You're a long way from home, aha But you're never alone, yeah Chorus Climb every mountain, How high doesn't matter, Don't ever be afraid to fall, Walk out on that wire, Climb every ladder, Keep your back against the wall, And don't be scared to hit the ground, Cos we all (all), fall (fall), I won't dig it in this dirt, Won't leave hands and mouth/Won't even enter mouth, ??? (wth is he saying here?) Won't try and to fit in, Try to not chicken out, Guitar Solo Life doesn't wait, don't hesitate, Don't lose your faith, it's judgement day, I'm calling you out, aha, I'm calling you now Chorus Climb every mountain, How high doesn't matter, Don't ever be afraid to fall, Walk out on that wire, Climb every ladder, Keep your back against the wall, And don't be scared to hit the ground, Cos we all (all), fall (fall), down Cos we all (all), fall (fall), down Cos we all (all), fall (fall), down |
Thay should make some lyric videos for Who would you die for ? , Fingerprints ,
Life is beautiful and for Burning bridges. I think these are the lyrics that we haven't got |

Who Would You Die For? When you walked into the party The guests all disappeared. You dropped in with a group of friends. I didn’t notice they were there. Was it the way your fingers held that glass? The way your lips broke when you laughed? I don’t care if the devil’s keeping score. For just one look I'd crawl across the floor. Who would you die for? Who would you die for? Will you write me lipstick letters, And miss me when I'm gone? Wake up tangled in the sheets, Still aching for my arms? The way you move it's almost holy, Hoping you don't know you're only, All I want is all of you and more. The big bad wolf is knockin’ at your door, Who would you die for? Who would you die for?

You wanna scream and shout out loud. When you sit up they knock you down, You're a long way from home, uh-huh, But you're never alone, yeah Chorus Climb Every Mountain, How high doesn't matter, Don't ever be afraid to fall. Walk out on that wire, Climb every ladder, Keep your back against the wall. And don't be scared to hit the ground, Cos we all (all), fall (fall)… If we’re all digging in this dirt, We’re all livin’ hand-to-mouth. We’re all tryin to fit in, Tryin’ not to chicken out. Life doesn’t wait, don’t hesitate. Don’t lose your faith, it’s judgment day. I’m calling you out, uh-huh, I’m calling you now. Chorus Climb Every Mountain, How high doesn't matter, Don't ever be afraid to fall. Walk out on that wire, Climb every ladder, Keep your back against the wall. And don't be scared to hit the ground. Cos we all (all), fall (fall) down. Cos we all (all), fall (fall) down. Cos we all (all), fall (fall) down. Fingerprints I gave you my fingerprints, Left them all over you, Tangled up in your sheets This heartache’s the only proof. I gave you my fingerprints, Now just like you they're gone, The man invisible, I'll be him from now on. Chorus The last time that I saw them, They were running through your hair. You held one between your lips And brought another there. The last time that I saw them, I haven't seen them since. No matter who or what I touch I leave no evidence. I gave you my fingerprints. I said I'd give you everything, But who'd thought you'd take it all. Does a promise really break, If nobody sees it fall? A hard rain can't wash away The taste of your memory, Don't know what I would do, If you should stop haunting me. Chorus The last time that I saw them, They were running through your hair, You held one between your lips And brought another there, The last time that I saw them, Unbuttoning your dress, Those pretty pictures in my head Are the only thing you left. I gave you my fingerprints. That china box I gave to you Was all there was to me. All it was to you Was just a faded memory. I gave her my fingerprints Guilty or innocent I had to ask myself Would I do it all again? Would I? Chorus The last time that I saw them, They were running through your hair. You held one between your lips And brought another there, The last time that I saw them, I haven't seen them since, No matter who or what I touch, I leave no evidence I gave you my fingerprints. Life Is Beautiful Try to walk on water, You’ll sink just like a stone. Said you’d get home early But you always stay too long. You've got all the answers, But the answers are all wrong. Chorus I can't save you from my sins, Innocence, my long lost friend. No wind, no rain can wash away, These hallowed words my mouth won't pray. You fly, you fall, Life is beautiful. She's there to lift me up But I only let her down. A guilty king Wears a broken crown. She's sweet forgiveness In a lonesome lost and found, Chorus I can't save you from my sins, Innocence, my long lost friend. No wind, no rain can wash away, These hallow words my mouth won't pray, You fly, you fall. Life is beautiful. New gets old, the night gets cold. Sad good-bye, life is beautiful. The sky is cracked, we can’t go back, Dry your eyes. Life is beautiful. I can't save you from my sins, Innocence, my long lost friend. No wind, no rain can wash away, These hallowed words my mouth won't pray. New gets old, the night gets cold, Sad good bye, life is beautiful. The sky is cracked, we can’t go back. Dry your eyes. Life is beautiful. Life is beautiful. Take Back the Night (snippet) ... (We’re gonna) Take back the night Surrender to me and save my life Let’s start a fire, let’s start a fight We’re gonna take back the night. Do you wanna be another casualty? The one who stands his ground When everybody leaves? It’s time for taking sides, It’s time to face the truth. Too late for turning back, So what’cha gonna do? Listen, I need something different. There’s no time for reason. I’m tired of bleeding. Chorus We’re gonna take back the night Surrender to me and save my life Let’s start a fire, let’s start a fight We’re gonna take back the night. |

But both POVs are valid. :) Mine is: someone sent us packing because someone got fed up with the stories I could write, that's why I wrote this song. |
It could be "me" or "you". I heard it both ways and couldn't decide. I can also see two POVs, so I could go either way on "turn" vs. "turned". I was thinking it was a nod to Seger, as the inspiration for WDOA, since that's referenced, too.

Take Back The Night:
(Ooh ooh ooh) (Ooh ooh ooh) You're saving days and nights Are always blaming This soaked tragic life So where's the happy ending? Stucked at the traffic light It's just the same old song I'm humming all the words But I won't sing alone Listen, I need something different I'm tired of giving And time to start living We’re gonna take back the night Surrender to me and save my life Let’s start a fire, let’s start a fight We’re gonna take back the night Do you wanna be another casualty? The one who stands his ground When everybody leaves? It’s time for taking sides It’s time to face the truth Too late for turning back So what’cha gonna do? Listen, I need something different There’s no time for reason I’m tired of bleeding We’re gonna take back the night Surrender to me and save my life Let’s start a fire, let’s start a fight We’re gonna take back the night [Guitar solo] Listen, I need something different I'm tired of dreaming This time I'm screaming We’re gonna take back the night Surrender to me and save my life Let’s start a fire, let’s start a fight We’re gonna take back the night Take back the night We're gonna take back the night Could be some mistakes, specially in the first verse but that's what I hear. |
Not sure about the first lines. I guess it's "say that/saying", not "saving" though.
Stuck at the traffic light It's just the same old song I'm humming all the words But I won't sing alone |

Heard it again, pretty sure that is "i'm humming all the words". Will correct it. Still I'm not 100% sure about the other ones, I really can't hear well.

Burning Bridges
“Here’s the last song you can sell.” “After 30 years of loyalty, they let you dig your grave.” according to UCR: http://ultimateclassicrock.com/bon-j...ecord-company/ "After 30 years of loyalty, they let you dig the grave / Now maybe you can learn to sing or strum along / Well I'll give you half the publishing / You're why I wrote this song." http://www.billboard.com/articles/ne...-records-split |

'We All Fall Down' is such a 'The Circle/What About Now' era song. Definitely has to be from one of them albums.

We All Fall Down - Jon Bon Jovi, John Shanks - 4:05 http://open.spotify.com/track/1Mb1mxSQ3G5g8FvBgKbIkF Don’t be afraid to lose your way Take that step, don’t hesitate Your time is now Don’t be afraid to scrape your knees On these streets of shattered dreams Stand up and be proud I'm telling you now Climb every mountain How high doesn't matter Don't ever be afraid to fall Walk out on that wire Climb every ladder Keep your back against the wall And don't be scared to hit the ground Cause we all fall down Down on your luck, you're feeling small The little things seem 10 feet tall Watch your dreams fall apart at the seams You wanna scream and shout out loud When you sit up they knock you down You're a long way from home But you're never alone, yeah Climb every mountain How high doesn't matter Don't ever be afraid to fall Walk out on that wire Climb every ladder Keep your back against the wall And don't be scared to hit the ground Cause we all fall We’re all digging in this dirt We’re all livin’ hand-to-mouth We’re all trying to fit in Trying not to chicken out Life doesn’t wait, don’t hesitate Don’t lose your faith, it’s judgment day I’m calling you out, uh-huh I’m calling you now Climb every mountain How high doesn't matter Don't ever be afraid to fall Walk out on that wire Climb every ladder Keep your back against the wall And don't be scared to hit the ground Cause we all fall down Cause we all fall down Cause we all fall down ************************************************** 6. Who Would You Die For - Jon Bon Jovi, Billy Falcon - 3:54 http://open.spotify.com/track/4Iq8HiaPE4mv0QpZfeKAF1 When you walked into the party The guests all disappeared You dropped in with a group of friends I didn’t notice they were there Was it the way your fingers held that glass? The way your lips broke when you laughed? I don’t care if the devil’s keeping score For just one look I'd crawl across the floor Who would you die for? Who would you die for? Will you write me lipstick letters And miss me when I'm gone? Wake up tangled in the sheets Still aching for my arms? The way you move it's almost holy Hoping you don't know you own me All I want is all of you and more The big bad wolf is knocking at your door Who would you die for? Who would you die for? I wanna know your secrets and your sins I wanna feel your breathing out and in I wanna know, I wanna know Who would you die for? Who would you die for? [Guitar solo] I wanna know what makes you feel I wanna know love truly heals I wanna know what makes you feel I wanna know love truly heals I wanna know what makes you feel I wanna know love truly heals I wanna know what makes you feel I wanna know love truly heals. When you walked into the party It was like the guests all disappeared You dropped in with a group of friends I didn’t notice they were there Was it the way your fingers held that glass? The way your lips broke when you laughed? I don’t care if the devil’s keeping score. For just one kiss I'd crawl across the floor. Who would you die for? Who would you die for? I wanna know your secrets and your sins I wanna feel your breathing out and in I wanna know, I wanna know I wanna know Who would you die for? Who would you die for? I wanna know Who would you die for? I wanna know Who would you die for? I wanna know Who would you die for? I wanna know ************************************************** 7. Fingerprints - Jon Bon Jovi, Billy Falcon - 5:58 http://open.spotify.com/track/2AlPLJUMR6q5Ht2xfswfH4 I gave you my fingerprints Left them all over you Tangled up in your sheets This heartache’s the only proof I gave you my fingerprints Now just like you they're gone The man invisible I'll be him from now on The last time that I saw them They were running through your hair You held one between your lips And brought another there The last time that I saw them I haven't seen them since No matter who or what I touch I leave no evidence I gave you my fingerprints I said I'd give you everything But who'd thought you'd take it all Does a promise really break If nobody sees it fall? A hard rain can't wash away The taste of your memory Don't know what I would do If you should stop haunting me The last time that I saw them They were running through your hair You held one between your lips And brought another there The last time that I saw them Unbuttoning your dress Those pretty pictures in my head Are the only thing you left I gave you my fingerprints [Guitar solo] That shiny box I gave to you Was all there was to me All it was to you Was just a faded memory I gave her my fingerprints Guilty or innocent I had to ask myself Would I do it all again? Would I? The last time that I saw them They were running through your hair You held one between your lips And brought another there The last time that I saw them I haven't seen them since No matter who or what I touch I leave no evidence I gave you my fingerprints [Guitar solo] ************************************************** 7. Life Is Beautiful - Jon Bon Jovi, Billy Falcon, Chris DeStefano - 3:22 http://open.spotify.com/track/7lRZ8IxTPBz7QK6pLTQGFh Try to walk on water You’ll sink just like a stone Said you’d get home early But you always stay too long You've got all the answers But the answers are all wrong. I can't save me from my sins Innocence, my long lost friend No wind, no rain can wash away These hallowed words my mouth won't pray You fly, you fall Life is beautiful She's there to lift me up But I only let her down A guilty king Wears a broken crown She's sweet forgiveness In a lonesome lost and found I can't save me from my sins Innocence, my long lost friend No wind, no rain can wash away These hallow words my mouth won't pray You fly, you fall Life is beautiful [Guitar solo] New gets old The night gets cold The sad goodbye Life is beautiful. The sky is cracked We can’t go back Dry your eyes Life is beautiful I can't save me from my sins Innocence, my long lost friend. No wind, no rain can wash away These hallowed words my mouth won't pray New gets old The night gets cold The sad goodbye Life is beautiful. The sky is cracked We can’t go back Dry your eyes Life is beautiful Life is beautiful |

Take Back The Night - Jon Bon Jovi, John Shanks - 3:42 http://open.spotify.com/track/30WgqMihXaL6fTWlrBCDcV These seven days and nights Are always blending This so called tragic life So where’s the happy ending? Stucked at the traffic light It’s just the same old song I’m humming all the words But I won’t sing along Listen, I need something different I’m tired of giving in Time to start living We’re going to take back the night Surrender to me and save my life Let’s start a fire, let’s start a fight We’re gonna take back the night Do you wanna be Another casualty? Or the one who stands his ground When everybody leaves? It’s time for taking sides It’s time to face the truth Too late for turning back So whatcha gonna do? Listen, I need something different There’s no time for reason I’m tired of bleeding We’re going to take back the night Surrender to me and save my life Let’s start a fire, let’s start a fight We’re gonna take back the night [Guitar solo] Listen, I need something different I'm tired of dreaming This time I'm screaming We’re going to take back the night Surrender to me and save my life Let’s start a fire, let’s start a fight We’re gonna take back the night Take back the night We're gonna take back the night ************************************************** Also, here a .docx with all the lyrics. |

One typo I noticed, though: The "shinny" box is just "shiny". |
