Amy so far:

This is what I got so far. I have crappy built in speakers so some of the words are missing and I'm sure a few are wrong.

Haha, it'll be fair harder trying to work out the other two!

Amy-

ACHY HEARTS SINGING OUT OF TUNE

ONLY I'M JUST SINGING MY TRUTH

DIRTY RECORDS FROM ANOTHER TIME

AND BLOOD STAINS ON YOUR SHOES

NO-ONE REALLY KNOWS ABOUT YOU GIRL

AND I DIDN'T REALLY KNOW YOUR AIM

GETTING AWAY FROM YOUR COUNTRY LIFE

A BUNCH OF FOOLS DROWN IN SHAME

EVERYWHERE YOU GO, I WANT YOU AROUND

SINGING OH, PLEASE DON'T GO

DO YOU WANNA BE A FRIEND OF MINE?

DO YOU WANNA BE A FRIEND OF MINE?

DID YOU TELL IT TO YOUR LUCKY CHARM?

KEEP YOU OUT OF HARMS WAY

WELL THE AWFUL EVIL SIGNS

NEVER REALLY KEPT YOU SAFE

NOW YOU'RE TOO YOUNG FOR THE GOLDEN AGE

AS THE RECORD SPINS MEMORIES FADE

... TROUBLE, I WILL CALL ON...

AMY WALKED AWAY FROM HER DRINK

AMY DON'T YOU GO, I WANT YOU AROUND

SINGING OH, PLEASE DON'T GO

DO YOU WANNA BE A FRIEND OF MINE?

DO YOU WANNA BE A FRIEND OF MINE?

AMY, PLEASE DON'T GO

AMY, PLEASE DON'T GO

ACHY HEARTS SINGING OUT OF TUNE

ONLY I'M JUST SINGING MY TRUTH

DIRTY RECORDS FROM ANOTHER TIME

AND BLOOD STAINS ON YOUR SHOES

THEY ARE HAVING..... A CAN'T ...FAITH

CAN YOU ASK ... ANOTHER GUY

SO WE CAN SING, BEAUTY QUEEN

AMY DON'T YOU GO

I WANT YOU AROUND

SINGING OH, PLEASE DON'T GO

DO YOU WANNA BE A FRIEND OF MINE?

DO YOU WANNA BE A FRIEND OF MINE?

DO YOU WANNA BE A FRIEND OF MINE?

Okay, I cant make out every word, but this is what I have so far. I broke the verses up into 4 lines each so I could keep track of it better. Im putting it in a spoiler cuz its long

(line 3) Dirty records from another time

(line 4) the mud (blood?) stains on your shoes

Verse 2:

(line 1) No one really knows about your home?

(line 2) and I never/didn't really know your name (game?)

(line 3) .... beneath (some) country lights

(line 4) A bunch of .... drown in/drowning? shame

Chorus:

Amy dont you go. (I also hear "Any time you go", but "amy" makes sense considering the title and the rest of the song) I ? want you around. Singin Ohhhhh please dont go do you wanna be a friend of mine. Do you wanna be a friend of mine

Verse 3:

(line 1) ..... to your lucky charm

(line 2) keep you outta harm's way

(line 3) rubbing off .......... / running off from evil (shine?)

(line 4) Never really kept you safe

Verse 4:

(line 1) Now you're too young for the golden age

(line 2) .......... memories fade?

(line 3) ..........

(line 4) Amy walked away from her drink

Chorus:

Verse 5:

(line 1) Amy please dont go

(line 2) Amy please dont go

Verse 6:

(line 1) Achey hearts singing out of tune

(line 2) Only Im just singin my .....

(line 3) Dirty records from another time

(line 4) the mud blood stains on your shoes

Verse 7:

(line 1) ...........

(line 2) .......... should blame

(line 3) ............ (I don't know ... ) die

(line 4) ....... (the same?) beauty queen?

Chorus:

Amy dont you go. I ? want you around. Singin ohhhhh please dont go, do you wanna be a friend of mine? Do you wanna be a freiend of mine? Do you wanna be a friend of mine?

I added the bold parts in this quote.

=====

Combined version. Mostly filling in the gaps from JadedInsomniac with Trina's version, and when two (three) versions conflict I put a slash between the versions. When it looks like this Aaaa/Bbbb, one person thought it was "aaaa", and two persons thought it was "bbbb".

I'm also adding any suggestions others make.

Achey/aching hearts singing out of tune

Only I'm just singing my truth

Dirty records from another time

The blood stains on your shoes

No one really knows about your home/soul / you girl

and I never/didn't really know your name / game / aim

.... beneath (some) country lights / Getting away from your country (paltry?) life /

A bunch of fools drown in shame

Amy don't you go / Everywhere you go

I want you around.

Singing ohhhhh please don't go

Do you wanna be a friend of mine?

Do you wanna be a friend of mine?

Did you tell it to your lucky charm

Keep you outta harm's way

rubbing off from evil times / running off from evil (time?) / Well the awful evil signs / warding off all evil signs

Never really kept you safe

Now you're too young for the golden age

As the record spins memories fade/play

Trouble, trouble/twenty seven, I will call on change?

Amy walked away from her drink / walk away from your drink

Amy don't you go

I want you around.

Singing ohhhhh please don't go,

Do you wanna be a friend of mine?

Do you wanna be a friend of...

Amy please don't go

Amy please don't go

Achey/Aching hearts singing out of tune

Only I'm just singing my truth

Dirty records from another time

The blood stains on your shoes

They are having a last dance

a chance that we should blame / I can't think we should take/blame / can't ....... faith

Can you help me oh ... die / another guy

So can we sing, beauty queen

Amy don't you go

I want you around.

Singing ohhhhh please don't go

Do you wanna be a friend of mine?

Do you wanna be a friend of mine?

EDIT: The guys posted a message on greenday.com with the real lyrics to Amy.

So here are the new lyrics. In the giant spoiler is what we (GDCers) figured out from the lyrics.

Is your heart singing out of tune

Are your eyes just singing the blues

Dirty records from another time

Some blood stains on your shoes

No one really knows about your soul

And I barely even know your name

Burning rhythms and posting lies

For a bunch of fools drown in shame

Amy don't you go

I want you around

Singin' woah please don't go

Do you wanna be a friend of mine?

Did you tattoo a lucky charm

To keep you out of harms way?

Warding off all evil signs

But it never really kept you safe

You're too young for the golden age

Cause the record bin's been replaced

27 gone without a trace

And you walked away from your drink

Is your heart singing out of tune

Are you eyes just singing the blues?

Dirty records from another time

Some blood stains on your shoes

May I have this last dance

By chance if we should meet?

Can you write me a lullaby?

So we can sing you to sleep

I just listened to Amy with a vocal booster on iTunes and it helps a bit. I changed my post in the other thread; It's "drown in shame" not "drowning shame" like I originally thought. Also, I'm sure it's not "country life" now.. It doesn't make sense and it doesn't sound like that to me anymore. It's really bugging me. :lol: I can't make it out.

I am constantly changing my thoughts as well.

I changed the "drown in shame" in my post/quote.

Dammit, Billie, sing a little more clear!

So this is about Amy Winehouse, right?

I'm certain. :) I think it's so sweet. I shared it on the Amy Winehouse forum.

1st of all thank you for the lyrics! I can never make out the lyrics by my self ! And second, how do you use the "vocal booster" on iTunes? Is that a special feature or what? (I know nothing about iTunes, I just have if for the ipod)

Yeah. I think I'm going to leave Amy for now. I'm so tempted to try to make a start on the other songs but it seems too difficult. :lol: I'd probably get like 2 words from each!

Cool.

:lol: Yes, please do Billie Joe.

You're welcome! :happy: It's no problem. I'm not sure if this differs between different versions of iTunes but click Window, then Equalizer, then pick Vocal Booster from the list and make sure "On" is ticked. I use a Mac so that may make it different too. You should be able to find it easily enough in the toolbar or options though. It's not a special feature. Haha, no problem, I have no experience with these things either.

I know I just said I wasn't going to try and figure out Amy anymore for a while, but I can't help wonder is he saying "paltry" instead of "country".. I'm starting to hear that.

Hmm.

Also, I think he's saying The instead of and blood stains... It doesn't flow as well though, idk.

Thsnks for posting the lyrics to Amy! :)

I really want to make a start on Sweet 16 too :lol: I've got the chorus:

You will always be my

Yeah, you will always be my

You'll always be my sweet 16

...It's a start, right?

but I can't help wonder is he saying "paltry" instead of "country".. I'm starting to hear that.

That's what I hear too

if he indeed says paltry, then I wasn't that far off with "John's poultry" :D

Okay, I listened to it again, and here are some changes I hear:

You can take "mud" out. I can hear blood now.

You can take "drowning shame" out. I can hear "drown in" shame now.

Additions:

•I (still?) want you around. - but I can't hear "st-" so I don't think so...

•Rubbing off from evil times

•Trouble trouble I will call on ......

•I don't (can't) think we should blame

Edited.

Maybe it's just "I want you around" but with the "want" dragged out (I wa-ant you around), because none of the times it's an identifiable word. If anything it sounds like "I am", but that doesn't make sense at all and can't be it.

Also edited another thought I had:

Trouble, trouble, I will call on change

Amy, walk away from your drink

Sounds more like "Aching hearts" than "Achey"... also it just sounds better IMO

We don't know for sure it's about Amy Winehouse, but with the drink reference and timing it just seems so. I'm not surprised, even if Billie didn't know her... to hear about another young musician die from drugs young is an issue I'm sure he'd respond to emotionally.

Edit:

That last part we're still vague on to me sounds like "They all had grand plans, a chance if you should...."

Wow, the lyrics to Amy are so sad. I mean, if it is about Amy Winehouse (which I'm certain it is), then that's sort of expected, but still, it's really quite moving

also, this is what I hear (bold):

Did you tell it to your lucky charm

Keep you outta harm's way

warding off all evil signs

Never really kept you safe

***

They are having last dance

a chance that we should take

............ I don't know ... die / another guy

....... (the same?) beauty queen? / So can we sing, beauty queen

Sorry.. but had Billie even had any affiliation with Winehouse? Like were they friends?

Not that I know of. Though they may have crossed paths at some point, just because they were in the same industry

Based on our tentative lyrics, he makes it sound like he never knew her, but wished he could have had the chance. It's more of a 'what a shame' song than a personal "i miss you"

Edit: Fuck, I just realized he was making a joke when I listened clearer.

it sounds like billie says "ya this song is called good riddance i just wrote it last week" as a joke...
