The Blues

[outlawaxl]

its sang "I wouldnt want to be you"....ohhhh "Coz thats a hell i cant describe".......hahah(Never Mind)...

[jabba2]

Well another website says the lyric is "You know I didn't want to meet you". So that sounds much closer to what i am hearing. Im pretty sure he says "i didnt mean to beat you" in the live bootleg i got.

2 different websites. 2 different lyrics for the note in question. Everything else the same. Conspiracy?

[Malcolm]

I belive these are the official lyrics to 'The Blues"

The Blues

All the love in the world couldn't save you
All 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 only wanna be you
Now thats a hell I cant describe

So now I wander through my days
And try to find my ways
To the feelings that I felt
I saved for you and no one else

And though as long as this road seems
I know its called the street of dreams
But thats not stardust on my feet
it leaves a taste thats bittersweet
thats called the blues

I dont know
Just what I should do
Everywhere I go
I see you

Although its what we planned
this much is true, oh oh
What I thought was beautiful
Dont live inside of you
Anymore, oh oh

I dont know just what I should do
everywhere I go
I see you
Its what we planned
this much is true, oh oh
What I thought was beautiful
Dont live inside of you
Anymore

What this means to me is more
than I know you believe
What I thought was 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
Is only memories, oh oh oh

[dave-gnfnr2k]

there are no offical lyrics
and those lyrics are wrong

these are what I have for the lyrics


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 wouldnt want to be you
Now thats a hell I cant describe

So now I wander through my daze
And try to find my ways
To the feelings that I felt
I saved for you and no one else

And though as long as this road seems
I know its called the street of dreams
But thats not stardust on my feet
it leaves a taste thats bittersweet
thats called the blues

I dont know
Just what I should do
Everywhere I go I see you

Although its what we planned
this much is true
What I thought was beautiful
Dont live inside of you
Anymore

I dont know just what I should do
everywhere I go I see you
although Its what we planned
this much is true
What I thought was beautiful
Dont live inside of you
Anymore

What this means to me is more than I know you'll 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

[Fuckin' Gunner]

I dont know what was on the montior but that is just what i hear.
and i always thought it was Daze since it makes more sense than Days.

But either would fit.

Which one is it?  Can't have both.

[Mr Cowbell ?]

I listened to a bootleg of that songs a few years back and wow theres so much emotion in them lyrics. Now after relistening to it I can't wait to hear a studio cut.

[D]

u know i didnt wanna beat u


hahahahah thats hilarious!

it is definitely about stephanie seymour

he said most of the album was about that so her son could discover it and know what happened

he's a teenager by now

maybe axl was prolonging the cd till dylan is old enough to buy it and understand it

How can  you not have both?
Something cannot be offical, and it can be wrong.
So I dont understand what you are saying?

[Axl4Prez2004]

In Rock in Rio 3 he sang "You know I didn't wanna be you"...

  Malcolm is right...and Davegnfnr2k is right.  Axl changed it a little in Rio 3.  In every other show from 2002 it's, "You know I wouldn't want to be you..."  I have absolutely never heard a rendition with "beat you" in it.
Sorry Jabba.  Please don't freeze me in carbonite now.

hahahahah thats hilarious!

hahahahahahah this one was very funny...

u know i didnt wanna beat u

Yeah, that's about Stephanie Seymour...

[The Estranged MrFlashbax]

u know i didnt wanna beat u


hahahahah thats hilarious!

it is definitely about stephanie seymour

he said most of the album was about that so her son could discover it and know what happened

he's a teenager by now

maybe axl was prolonging the cd till dylan is old enough to buy it and understand it

didnt stephanie put up a restraint order against axl so axl cant see dylan? but i think dylan can remove the restraint order if he wants once he's 18.. so maybe axl's waiting til dylan's 18 to release the album?

-Axl4Prez

You disagreed with jabba?? Unwise foolish one!! lol. Well i have 2 different live versions of the Blues, and it very much sounds like hes saying "beat" instead of "be". To each his own oppinion, but "be" would make no sense at all in the lyrics when "beat" most definately would, since its a love song about Stephanie, and of course he used to beat her (but now we know he didnt want to).

How old is the damn kid today?  

[estranged.1098]

jabba2,

is English your first language?

and which versions of the song have you listened to?

[Axl4Prez2004]

Jabba,

  Please tell us where the 2 boots you heard of The Blues are from.  I hope one of them is not the Cantina on Tattooine.     I think your mind is elswhere...possibly staring at Princess Leia's gold breastplates.  

-Axl4Prez

[jabba2]

This one is Rock in Rio 3, i have 2 different bit rates, so it sounds different. Its the same concert though. At least i think so. And yes, English is my first language. You actually think Axl is saying the word "be"?  I dont think so.

[outlawaxl]

it sounds nothing like "beat you" ...nothing..

of course "i wouldnt want to be you" makes sense... there is NO WAY he would ever say anything about beating his chicks up in a song.. thats just common sense....
