Check out a "lyrics" section of a gnr site.   or type that request on google.

Thanks Jimb0...I just wasn't sure if they were listed on this site or not.  All the lyrics I saw elsewhere seem really off.

Catcher in the Rye

When all is said and done
We're not the only ones
Who look at life this way
That's what the old folks say
But every time I?d see them
Makes me wish I had a gun

If I thought that I was crazy
Well I guess I'd have more fun
Guess I'd have more fun

Ooh the Catcher in the Rye again
Ooh won't let ya get away from his gun
It's just another day like today

You decide
If I don't have to
Then they'll find
And I won't ask you
At anytime
Or long thereafter
If it's cold outside
As I?m imaging
How it?s gonna be
All alone

(Solo)

Ooh the Catcher in the Rye again
Ooh won't let ya get away from his gun
It's just another day like today

When all is said and done
We're not the only ones
Who look at life this way
That's what the young folks say
As if they'd ever change
That's not whom I to say
But every time I'd see them
Makes me wish I had a gun
If I thought that I was crazy
Well I guess I'd have more fun
It's what used to be's not there for me
And ought to find someone that belonged insane like I do


Oh no
Not at all (repeat)

On an ordinary day
Not in an ordinary way
All at once this song I heard
No longer would it play for anybody
Or anyone
That needed comfort from somebody
Needed comfort from someone who cared
To be
Not like you
Unlike me
And then the voices went away
From me
So many set the wheels in motion
Haunts our memories
You were the instrument ?
You were the one
How a body took the body
Gave that boy a gun
Took our innocence
Beyond our stares
Some type of moment
There we got it
All alone with her today


Guns N' Roses - Better


No one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better, better


No one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better, better




The hardest part
This troubled heart
Has never yet been through now
We've healed the scars
That got their start
Inside someone like you now

Well had I known
Or I'd been shown back when how long it?d take me
To break the challenge
That brought me home
And all that won't erase me

I never would
Know that I could
No matter what you'd pay me
Replay the part
You stole my heart
I should have known you're crazy

If all I knew was that with you
I'd want someone to save me
It'd be enough
But just my luck
I fell in love and baby all that I wanted was

Now I know you better
You know I'd know better
Now I, know you better

So bittersweet
This tragedy
Won't ask for absolution
This melody
Inside of me
Still searches for solution
A twist of fate
A change of heart
Kills my infatuation
A broken heart
Provides the spark for my determination

No one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better, better ohh
No one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better, better

All that I wanted was

I know you know you know better
You know I know you know better
Yeah you know me better

(Solo)




I never wanted you to be so full of anger
I never wanted you to be somebody else
I never wanted you to be someone afraid to know themselves
I only wanted you to see things for yourself

(Solo)

All that I wanted was

Now I know you better
Now we all know better
All that I wanted was



(Solo)

I know better (repeat) ?

If I were you
I?d manage to
Avoid the invitation
Of promised love
That can?t keep up
With your adoration
Just use your head
And in the end
You?ll find your inspiration
To choose your steps
And won't regret
This kind of aggravation

No one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better, better
No one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better, better

Twat (There Was A Time)

Broken glass and cigarettes
Writing on the wall
It was a bargain for the summer
And I thought I had it all
I was the one who gave you everything
The one who took the fall
You were the one who would do anything
One who can?t recall
Where she was while she was sleeping
In another?s women?s bed
Or the doctors or the lawyers or the stranger that she met
If there?s nothing that I can gain from this
Or anything at all
It'd be the knowledge that you gave me when I thought I'd heard it all

It was a long time for you
It was a long time for me
It?d be a long time for everyone but looks like it?s meant to be



Social class and registers
Cocaine in the hall
All the way from California
On the way beyond that stall
To those non-negotiations, to simulate a call
While the battle of mid-evils, and your ways around the laws
That'd keep you up and sitting pretty
On a pedestal of fear
And now you're sleeping like an angel
Near than man who reaped it
If there's something I can make of this
Or anything at all
It'd be the devil hates a loser and you thought you had it all

It was the wrong time for you
It was the wrong time for me
It was the wrong time for everyone
But it looks like I'm 'bout to see for myself

(YEP)

I could go back inside to the place in my soul
They?re all alone, lonely teardrops
Ooh, are calling you
But I don't want to know it now
Cuz knowing you it won't change a damn thing

But there was a time

[solo]

There was a time
Didn't want to know it all
Didn't want to know it all
And I don't wanna know it now
Don't want to know it now

Yeah, There was a time
Didn't want to know it all
Didn't want to know it all
And I don't wanna know it now







I would do anything for you
There was a time

I would do anything for you
There was a time

I would do anything for you
There was a time

[solo]

There was a time
I would do anything for you

There was a time
Didn't want to know it all
Didn't want to know it all
And I don't wanna know it now
Don't want to know it now

There was a time
Didn't want to know it all
Didn't want to know it all
And I don't wanna know it now
Don't want to know it now

There was a time
Didn't want to know it all
Didn't want to know it all





IRS

Love
Is it true?
What they say of you

Gonna call the President
Gonna call up the Private Eye
Gonna get the IRS
Gonna need the FBI

There?s not anymore that I can do
All the reasons that you gave
I'll follow you
To when you plead the fifth, that?d be the end of time, its true

Wouldn?t be the first time I've been wrong
Wouldn't be the last I should have known
Through all the rumors I can tell,
Some things didn't work so well

Well anyway, it feels the same

When you first told me you were gone
So long ago, but I've been here long
To all the luck getting outta the debt
That's the truth and here's the worst yet
Wouldn't even matter the things I say
You made your mind up ah hoc anyway
There's no use now in dragging it on
Could've seen it coming all along

Well it?s true...ooh...I had
My doubts of you

Gonna call the President
Gonna call myself a Private Eye
Gonna need the IRS
Gonna get the FBI

Gonna make this a federal case
Gonna wave it right down in your face (??)
Read it daily with your morning news
With a cheap hangover, and the headlines true now

[Finck Solo]

I feel your doing this all for my health
I should've looked again then at somebody else
Feel like I done way more than wrong
Feelin like I never gonna get ya outta this song
Feelin like I'm just too tired to care
Feelin like I done more than my share
Could it be the weight that I've carried on
Like a broken record for so long

And I do
Ooh, oh.
I'm Gonna call the President,
I'm gonna call a private eye
Gonna get the IRS,
Gonna need myself the FBI

Ooh, what shall I do
If I gave my heart to you
It's such a crime you know it?s true

[Bucket solo]

Gonna call the president
Gonna get myself a private eye
Gonna need the IRS
Gonna get the FBI

Gonna make it a federal case
Gonna wave it right down in your face(??)
Read it daily with your morning news
With a cheap hangover, and the headlines true

There's not anymore that I can do

Oh My God

IT'S NOT AS YOU'RE THINKING
AS YOU'VE IMAGINED
TO LIVE IN A SHADE OF
BELIEFS THAT WERE FASHIONED
LEAVE YOU IN SLAVERY AND DRAIN OUT YOUR SOUL
WHAT CAN I DO WHEN THERE'S SO MANY LIARS
THAT CRAWL THROUGH YOUR VEINS
LIKE MILLIONS OF SPIDERS
THAT SEEK OUT THEIR VICTIMS AND WHO IS THE WISER
WATCH OUT
GOTCHA ?

Oh my god
 I can't deny this
 I've been taught just to kill and fight this
 To bury it deeper where nobody can find it
 Like nobody wanted to know
 
 So give it away
 Like they're not gonna fuck you
 How long can you bend
 To come back and haunt you
 To burn past your feelings
 That cause you to suffer
 You're starting to bleed
 They don't discover
 Before its too late
 What will you offer
 In way of ?healing
 I'm so confused, abused, misused
 
 Oh my god
 I can't deny this
 I've been taught just to kill and fight this
 To bury it deeper where nobody can find it
 Cause nobody wanted to know
 
 Ooh, if it opens your eyes
 This is better than a strong compromise
 I was willing to be lost in the shuffle
 If only you had let me know
 Ooh, if it opens your eyes
 This is better than the last compromise
 I was willing to be lost in the shadows
 If only you had let me know
 
 And they wont give in
 Cause they know what they?ve got
 A kick in the face
 Like its all that would matter

 
 Oh my god
 I can't deny this
 I've been taught just to murder and fight this
 To bury it deeper where no one can find it
 Cuz nobody wanted know
 
 Ooh, if it opens your eyes
 This is better than a good compromise
 I was willing to be lost in the shuffle
 If only you had let me know
 
 Ooh, well it's on with the show
 Like the tides out on the ocean
 The waves already set in motion
 The only one in the game whose lost is you






Riyadh



Oh-Oh
Ohhhh
Oh, Oh-Oh
Ohhhh
Oh-Oh
Ohhhh
Oh, Oh-Oh

Riyadh and the Bedouins
Had a plan and thought they'd win
But I don?t give a fuck bout them
Cause I am crazy

All my salvation
And all my frustrations
Caught in the lies
No one I love is well Huh
Somewhere in time
Where only I can tell

Ohhhh

Ohhhh
Oh-Oh


Riyadh and the Bedouins
So that?s the world that you came in
I ain?t had enough of them
Who can blame me?

Half the time you never win
Nomads and barbarians
I won?t bend my will to them, you ag-gra-vate me
My salvation
And all my frustrations
Caught in the lie
No one I love is well??
Somewhere in time
Where only I can tell

My salvation
My frustrations
Caught in the lie
If you?re at home as well ??
Somewhere in time
And only I can tell

All my salvation
And all, my frustrations
Caught in the lies
If you?re at home as well
Somewhere in time
There only I can tell

Oh-Oh, Oh
Oh-Oh, Oh
Oh-Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh, Oh-Oh, Oh



Madagascar

I won't be told anymore
That I've been brought down in this storm
And left so far out from the shore
That I can't find my way back
My way anymore

No, I won't be told anymore
That I've been brought down in this storm
And left so far out from the shore
That I can't find my way back
My way anymore

No I?I

Forgive them that tear down my soul
Bless them that they might grow old
And free them so that they may know
That it's never too late

For the many times
What seemed like a memory
I've searched and found the ways you use to lure me in
I've found the ways, oh why it had to be
Mired in denial, and so afraid

If we ever find it true
That we had the strength to choose
I'm freed of all the chains
We held together
( I freed the ball and chains, we had together)

(solo)

I won't be told anymore
That I've been brought down in this storm
And left so far out from the shore
That I can't find my way back
My way anymore

No, I won't be told anymore
That I've been brought down in this storm
And left so far out from the shore
That I can't find my way back
My way anymore


The blues


 
 All the love in the world couldn't save you
 Or the innocence inside
 You know I tried so hard to make you
 To make you change your mind
 
 And it hurts too much to see you
 And how you left yourself behind
 You know I wouldn't wanna be you
 Now there's a hell I can't describe
 
 So now I wander through my daze
 Tried to find my ways
 To these feelings that I felt
 I saved for you and no one else
 
 And though as long as this road seems
 I know it?s called the street of dreams
 But that?s not stardust on my feet
 It leaves a change that?s bittersweet
 That's called the blues
 
 I don't know just what I should do
 Everywhere I go I see you
 Although it's what we planned
 This much is true
 What I thought was beautiful
 Don't live inside of you anymore
 
 I don't know just what I should do
 Everywhere I go I see you
 Although it's what we planned
 This much is true
 What I thought was beautiful
 Don't live inside of you anymore
 
 
 What this means to me
 Is more than I know you believe
 What I thought of you now
 Has cost more than it should for me
 
 What I thought was true before
 Were lies I couldn't see
 What I thought was beautiful
 Was only memories


Chinese Democracy

It don?t really matter
You're gonna find out for yourself
 No, it don't really matter
 You're gonna leave this thing to
 Somebody else
 
 If they were missionaries
 Real time visionaries
 Sitting in a Chinese stew (stoop)
 View my dis-infatu-ation
 I know that I'm a classic case
 Watch my disenchanted face
 Blame it on the Falun Gong
 They see the end and you can't hold on now
 
 Cause it would take a lot more hate than you
 To stop the fascination
 Even with an iron fist
 More than you got to rule the nation
 When all I got is precious time
 
 It don't really matter
 Guess Ill keep it to myself.
 No it don't really matter
 It's time I look around for
 Somebody else
 
 Cause it would take a lot more time than you
 Have got for masturbation
 Even with an iron fist
 More than you got to rule the nation
 When all I got is precious time
 More than you got to fool the nation
 When all I got is precious time
 
(solo)

 It don't really matter
 I guess you'll find out for yourself
 No it don't really matter
 So you can hear it now from somebody else
 
 You think you got it all locked up inside
 And if you beat them enough they?ll die
 It's like walk in the park from a cell
 And now you're keeping your own kind in hell
 And when your great wall rocks
 Blame yourself.
 While their arms reach up for your help
 And I?m outta time






 

Silkworms


 Listen mother fuckers to this song that should be heard
 Back down in the gutters, it?s more than you deserve
 Kneeling fucking banchee, you know that's what you are
 Pussy full of maggots, isn't that a shock
 ?
 What can I do
 With a bitch like you
 You know that it?s true
 All I have
 I ask you
 I'll be dammed with a bitch like you
 With a bitch like you
 ?
 Get your head down out of the stars
 Fucking little schemer got yourself a broken heart
 Syphilitic priestess, baby I know who you are
 Parasitic demon sucking acid through your heart

 
 What can I do
 With a bitch like you
 You know that it?s true
 All I have
 I ask you
 I'll be dammed with a bitch like you
 A bitch like you



a lot of different people have helped out on these lyrics from the gnr bar, htgth and the AMB

I think that line is "Sometimes we only think we got it all when no one else is there..."

Thanks for the lyrics, I actually wanted them too.

I always thought the Oh My God lyrics were-


It's not how you're thinking
Like you've been right
You've been living a trade-off
Believe your own version
Believe your enslavery and drain out your soul

Made a small change to what the lyrics really say at the point where they're bold, as I've read them from Axl's screens in Greece, I wasn't on stage, I was in the first row...  Grin

After listening the the bootleg from Newcastle, the last line of The Blues is as follows:

Quote
What this means to me is more than I know you believe
What I thought of you now, has cost more than it should for me
What I thought was true before, were lies I couldn't see
What I thought was beautiful, was only memories...

...of only you.

This is what I tried to tell people four years ago, but everyone was so full of that "freed of all the chains" crap that I couldn't get my voice through. I tried to explain how the lyrics continue with something that they have the strength to choose between, not only that they have the strength to choose in general, which would be quite pointless. I've been laying low since then, waiting for the official lyric sheet to appear and prove me right! Now if only someone had the strength to go through all the lyric sites on the web and get that senseless "three more to tame" version removed from their databases.

By the way, in Better it's still "....my infatuation of a broken heart to provide the spark..." In T.W.A.T. they simulate a cause and not a call. And in IRS I would still like that goddamn "when you plead the fifth" line replaced even with something like "inaudible". That's just as wrong and plain stupid as that "three more to tame" in Madagascar. The same with "And ought to find someone that belonged insane like I do" in CITR... what the hell does that mean? (Oh, someone already mentioned that.)

Yes, you're right.

I'm not so sure about this...

That's just as wrong and plain stupid as that "three more to tame" in Madagascar. The same with "And ought to find someone that belonged insane like I do" in CITR... what the hell does that mean? (Oh, someone already mentioned that.)

The "three more to tame" was fuckin lame... I never understood what the fuck it meant to the people who "transcribed" the song...

And I can't talk about the "plead the fifth" part, cause it's simply not clear what he says in the song.

I always thought the Oh My God lyrics were-


It's not how you're thinking
Like you've been right
You've been living a trade-off
Believe your own version
Believe your enslavery and drain out your soul


No those are wrong, the ones I have are correct
how do you know they are? please fill me in..... im curious.
