What say you, girl?

What say you, girl
I don’t pretend that I know what your pain is like
Don’t want to offend, don’t wanna throw the first strike
I know your heart is under attack in the dark
Since we’ve been apart, my life’s been without a spark
I don’t pretend that I know what goes through your mind
Don’t want to offend , but our love’s been left behind
I know your heart is struggling to beat like before
Since we’ve been apart, mine just won’t shine anymore
What say you girl should we go on a date
What say you girl should we try to tempt fate
Let’s see if we can still find what once was
Let’s see if life can still ring with applause
I don’t pretend that I know where we go from here
Don’t want to offend I’m ready to cry my last tear
I know your heart is still made of passion and love
Since we’ve been apart I’ve felt no grace from above
What say you girl should we go on a date
What say you girl should we try to tempt fate
Let’s see if we can still find what once was
Let’s see if life can still ring with applause

I don’t believe in ghosts but there’s so much history here
I'm not smarter than most but I know whom I should fear
As I stand on the coast and memories disappear
I don’t believe in ghosts but there’s so much history here
I don’t believe in love but I’ve seen love grow to the sky
And if I look above I can still see it shine in your eye
The pain we get rid of comes back please don’t ask me why
I don’t believe in love but I’ve seen love grow to the sky
And I will fight a thousand wars to hold you in my arms
I’ll drink in a thousand bars to forget all your charms
And if again I could be yours, if we could live hand in hand
If God would open all the doors I’d be the happiest man in the land
I don’t believe in make believe I don’t believe in dreams
I may still be a bit naive but I know I can’t change teams
There’s a time to laugh, a time to grieve and a time to smile it seems
I don’t believe in make believe I don’t believe in dreams
And I will fight a thousand wars to hold you in my arms
I’ll drink in a thousand bars to forget all your charms
And if again I could be yours, if we could live hand in hand
If God would open all the doors I’d be the happiest man in the land
I don’t believe in ghosts but there’s so much history here
I'm not smarter than most but I know whom I should fear
As I stand on the coast and memories disappear
I don’t believe in ghosts but there’s so much history here

A
Sometimes a woman
D
She tears you all up inside
E
Sometimes a woman
A
Makes you swallow your pride
Sometimes a woman
Gives you the gift of life
Sometimes a woman
She becomes your wife
G D A
Sometimes nobody’s wrong
Some people can’t get along
Some folks they just don’t belong
Bm E A
Their hearts and their love just ain’t that strong
Sometimes a man
He tells a story untrue
Sometimes a man
Only has eyes for you
Sometimes a man
He falls in lust in the dark
Sometimes a man
Thinks love comes with a question mark

A small town love

A small town love
The sign on the Johnsons’ barn says Jesus saves
They know they’re living in the land of the braves
Old man Johnson he don’t like me none
On account of his daughter thinks I’m the one
Tonight we’ll leave the county for the first time
In my old truck all covered in rust and grime
I was saving my money for a GTO
That’s what we’ll live on don’t you know
A small town love can still shine big as the sun
We just wanna be together, not outlaws on the run
But we’ll do what’s gotta be done
We got a job and a place in the big city
Took my girl outta the holler, she’s just as pretty
It’s a simple life when you don’t have much money
But every day in her arms is warm and sunny
A small town love can still shine big as the sun
We just wanna be together, not outlaws on the run
But we’ll do what’s gotta be done
Sometimes at night we talk about going back
We dream of driving home in a brand new Cadillac
Old man Johnson would probably shoot me on sight
Or maybe his heart would see the light?
A small town love can still shine big as the sun
We just wanna be together, not outlaws on the run
But we’ll do what’s gotta be done

The black powder
03:47

There’s an old pistol tucked in under the seat
In that old Pontiac driving down the street
There’s a corner liquor store in need of some robbing
And the pain in Tony’s heart is a thumping and a throbbing
There’s an old pistol tucked in under the seat
Pedal to the metal running from the heat
There’s a pool of blood getting wider on the floor
There’s a dead man on the ground in the corner liquor store
Why did he reach under the counter?
Why couldn’t he just tremble and cower
The thunder couldn’t have rung any louder
When the finger on the trigger unleashed the black powder
There’s an old pistol tucked in under the seat
As officer Watson is walking the beat
The call just came in they’re looking for Tony
Based on hearsay and witness testimony
There’s an old pistol tucked in under the seat
Soon Tony and Watson are bound to meet
Neither one of them knows how to back down
More blood will be spilled in the heart of town
Why did he reach under the counter?
Why couldn’t he just tremble and cower
The thunder couldn’t have rung any louder
When the finger on the trigger unleashed the black powder
The old pistol’s no longer under the seat
The stolen money won’t bring a life so sweet
Tony’s body’s still behind the wheel
The Devil took his soul because a deal’s a deal
Why did he reach under the counter?
Why couldn’t he just tremble and cower
The thunder couldn’t have rung any louder
When the finger on the trigger unleashed the black powder

Tell me darling

Tell me darling
Are you thinking
About leaving
Once again
Tell me darling
Can’t your heart sing
Can’t my love bring
An end to pain
Show me how to show you how
To take a bow when love is now
Tell me darling
Isn’t love king
Please wear my ring
Once again
Tell me darling
Were we some fling
Just a play thing
A bloodless vein
Show me how to show you how
To take a bow when love is now
Am
I can’t believe you when you say
You never meant to stay

Well the morning always comes too dang soon
It leaves me missing my old friend the moon
Nothing looks the same to me
Nothing seems like it should be
No one gets a smile when they smile at me
The morning always comes too dang soon
Don’t wanna see the world till late afternoon
I know the planet keeps on turnin’
I know young lovers keep on firtin’
But my head’s not ready to stop the hurtin’
I’m still living for last night
And the dang sun shines way too bright
Why the hell am I even awake?
Not quite ready for tonight
My head is feeling way too tight
I’m just begging for a little break
I got all I can take
The morning always comes too dang soon
Too early for the needle and the spoon
It’s not love flowing through my veins
It’s the Devil’s juice that keeps me in chains
Come morning only burning tears remains
I’m still living for last night
And the dang sun shines way too bright
Why the hell am I even awake?
Not quite ready for tonight
My head is feeling way too tight
I’m just begging for a little break
Brother I got all I can take

On my way to Baltimore
Driving south along the shore
She said come for a few days
See the errors of your ways
On my way to Baltimore
A town I’ve never been before
She said come write a new song
We can smile like nothing’s wrong
Em F
We’ll read aloud from books we find
Em F
We’ll change all the words unkind
Em F
We’ll stay in bed past supper time
Am G
We’ll gorge ourselves on words that rhyme
On my way to Baltimore
I don’t know what life has in store
But I wanna feel your strength again
Two links part of the same chain
On my way to Baltimore
Some sirens’ songs I can’t ignore
I hope you’ll take me in your heart
I hope this will be a fresh start
Em F
We’ll read aloud from books we find
Em F
We’ll change all the words unkind
Em F
We’ll stay in bed past supper time
Am G
We’ll gorge ourselves on words that rhyme

Looking for a woman
04:02

Looking for a woman who’s not the leaving kind
Looking for a woman who won’t leave me behind
Looking for a woman who needs me for nothing
Looking for a woman not looking for a fling
I know she’s out there somewhere
Looking for a woman who sees whom I can be
Looking for a woman who loves me just for me
Looking for a woman who lives to share a smile
Looking for a woman to make our lives worthwhile
