Sunday Morning Breakdown
02:35
|
|||
|
(Verse)
Wednesday morning came around
Tuesday night I almost drowned
Wednesday evening here I come again
Thursday night I’m almost there
Boozin’ like I had no care
Ex-wife’s preaching, this is what she said
(Chorus)
Headed for a shakedown
Dirty little take down
Sunday morning breakdown again
Staying out till sunrise
Drinking all the moonshine
Cut off from heaven again
(Verse)
Friday night I’m feeling high
Body’s shaking wondering why
I’m about to come unglued again
Saturday just maybe
Whiskey lines and ladies
Oh my god, here I go again
(Chorus)2x
(Solo)
(Chorus)2x
I’ve been feeling like a low life
**pissing off the new wife**
Lord have mercy again

Wait
03:22
|

|
(Verse)
I said wait
I couldn’t tell ya
All that I know
You could not be saved
I said wait
I wouldn’t tell ya
You weren’t there
Your ship has been sailed
(Pre)
Took so long to say the words
Now I wonder if I’ll be heard
(Verse)
I said wait
You couldn’t stay
Time to go
The end of the road
I said wait
I wasn’t ready
For all of this pain
Was this in vein
(Pre)
Took so long to realize
Now I’m left here with goodbye’s
I said wait
(Solo)
(Bridge)
I’ve pondered, I’ve moved on
All the pain has made me strong
Now I feel that I belong
(Verse)
I said wait
I really miss ya
But you’re still here
Drying the tears
I said wait
I wanna thank ya
For giving your all
Now I’ll stand tall
I said wait

I Know You
03:12
|
|||
|
(Verse)
I’m looking out the window at the early morning sun
Tossed and turned didn’t sleep last night
My mind was on the run
I know what you’re thinking
Mama raised no fool
I know you
(Verse)
You’re thinking I’ll be waiting
Till you’ve figured out your life
Run around, do what you want, never thinking twice
Little do you know, the game is growing old
I know you
(Chorus)
I said you could’ve saved me from another lonely day
I said you could’ve had me
But you played those games you played
I know that its wrong, it’s time to move along
I know you
(Verse)
Now you’ll come back and I’ll be there
But it won’t be the same
You’ll wonder what has happened, ain’t it a crying shame
I’ve picked up and I’ve moved on, sorry but it’s true
I know you
(Chorus)
(Solo)
(Chorus)

You Were Not (The One)
03:51
|
|||
|
(Verse)
The pain that’s inside
That wasn’t me
Lived all of our lives
We’re too blind too see
All’s said and done
There were so many wrongs
Too scared to fight
We don’t belong
(Chorus 1)
You were not the one
I played it out too long
If I had known
About all the lies, such a crime, waste of time
But you, you were not the one
(Verse)
All of the times
All the times I was gone
Out on the road
Pouring pain out in song
But then I was there
I was right by your side
We thought it was right
But had too much to hide
(Chorus)
But I was not the one
You played it out too long
If you had known
About all the lies, such a crime, waste of time
But I, I was not the one
(Bridge)
I couldn’t believe all the things that you said
No wrong or right, wish we never met
Now we don’t look back
We look straight ahead
(Solo)
(Chorus 1)

Stay Away
05:58
|
|||
|
(Verse)
I’m bound to you, like a candle to the flame
So dark and lonely, shy and only a million miles away
You’re bound to me like a fire in the rain
But now you know, you couldn’t show
The scars beneath the pain
(Pre)
Won’t you turn around (3x)
And go
(Chorus)
Stay away, I’m done
When I’m thinking about your ways
Stay away, I’m done
And we’re going our separate ways
Can I be the lonely man that I knew I was
And I always will be
Stay away, I’m done
Never come back again
(Verse)
I came to you, I was lost and gone astray
But you made me strong and I belong
You showed me better days
You came to me with an everlasting shame
And if you could, I knew you would
Lead me to my chains
(Pre)
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
Trying to think how it ended up this way
Now I sink in a world of empty days
Now I know, where we’ll go
(Solo)
(Pre)
(Chorus)

How Could You
04:55
|
|||
|
(Verse)
Sayin’ Please, on my knees
I gave my all with nothing returned
You wouldn’t know
Time I should go
Pick up the pieces of my heart again
(Pre-Chorus)
I’ve waited so long
What did I do wrong
(Chrous)
To deserve this treatment from you
Tell me what am I supposed to do
Cuz I’m still in love with you
(Verse)
Say wasn’t me, don’t wanna leave
Do you know how hard I tried
Known you to long, never thought it’d be wrong
But I’m a fool, I’ve been played again
(Pre-Chorus)
I’ve waited so long
What did I do wrong
(Chorus)
To deserve this treatment from you
Tell me what I am supposed to do
After all that we’ve been through
Cuz I’m still in love with you
(Solo)
(Verse)
Sayin’ please, on my knees
I gave my all with nothing returned
You wouldn’t know
Time I should go
But I’m still in love with you

Gave Me A Wink
03:17
|
|||
|
(Verse)
You always wanted to be free
You never said those words to me
You stood beside but you could not stay
So you gave me a wink and you slowly faded away
(Verse)
You never wanted to look and see
You never took the time for me
I never wanted you to stray
But you gave me a wink and you looked the other way
(Pre)
You came to me said you want to be by yourself
And once again had to put my heart on a shelf
Once again I found the strength inside
You just gave me a wink another part of me just died
(Bridge)
Now I’m faced with the challenge once again
Will my heart ever be whole again
Take what I learned and I pull it deep inside
And rebuild my pride
(Solo)
(Pre)
I look at myself and I’ve seen where I been
I’m happy with all my choices in the end
Once again I found the strength inside
I just gave you a wink and I said to you goodbye (2x)

If We Could
02:49
|
|||
|
(Verse)
When I first laid eyes on you
Never thought we’d end up this way
Was it me or was it you
Who always had things their way
(Pre)
Could it be
We’re so hard to please
(Chorus)
If we could
Change this life
Would our, troubles be over
Is there truth
Behind the lies we hide
Would it even matter
(Verse)
If I opened up to you
Would you walk right out of my life
When you look inside yourself
Can you tell me what’s wrong or right
(Pre)
Can it be
What will be will be
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
And I repeat it in my mind
Oh can it be, can it be
Some things in life just take their time
Is it meant to be
(Solo)
(Pre)
(Chorus)(2x)

Grace
04:33
|
|||
|
(Verse)
I’ll be a long way from home by the time you awake
If you think I’m comin’ back
I’ve left you with one more thing you can break
Let alone my selfish heart
(Chorus)
Breathe with me
My soul’s on fire
Let me trade my grace with you
She don’t need
But a stone faced liar
Like me hiding the truth
But I’m holding out for you
(Verse)
I see your troubled eyes burning a tunnel through me
Your face so pale
Your stuttered sigh
Its all at stake one way or the other
Let alone my selfish heart
(Chorus)
(Solo)
(Chorus)
|

10. |
Come What May
05:05
|
|||
|
(Verse)
Turn on all the lights
So the demons they won’t stay
Open all the doors
Hope the fears they fly away
You’re looking very hard
For the words you want to say
But you scream into the silence
Feel you’ve lost another day
(Pre)
Do you still remember
The world with all its wonder
(Chorus)
You will be the one
You will find your way
Stand high above the rest
Come what may
You have learned the lesson
You did not betray
Be proud of what you’ve done
Come what may
(Verse)
Wipe away the dust
Wipe away the blood and tears
Let go of all regret
Make sense of all these years
Let go of all the anger
No longer hide it with your hears
You’ve pushed it to the limit
You have made this very clear
(Pre)
(Chorus)
(Solo)
(Chorus)
