A Woman Has A Way
03:59

Verse: C/E7/F/D7/G7
Pre Chorus: F/C/G/Am/F (x2)
Chorus: C/F (x3) G
A woman has a way to make a wild man tame
Make him feel just like a child throwing tantrums
In the aisle of grocery store
A woman has a way to make sense of what we say
And it comes as no surprise that all you women you’ve got eyes
In the back of your head
A man just ain’t right if he ain’t got a woman to love
A man makes mistakes and oh how his heart aches for your love
No I don’t wanna let you down
I’m afraid you’ll run if you touch the ground
No I don’t wanna let you down anymore
(solo)
A woman has a way to stop a freight train
Run it right off the rails with its legs between its tails c’mon now
A woman has a way to make a blue sky out of grey
Turn a young boy into a man
Well I’ve seen it first hand and I’ll second that
A man just ain’t right if he ain’t got a woman to love
A man makes mistakes and oh how his heart aches for your love
No I don’t wanna let you down
I’m afraid you’ll run if you touch the ground
No I don’t wanna let you down anymore than I have to
(solo)
A man just ain’t right if he ain’t got a woman to love
A man makes mistakes and oh how his heart aches for your love
No I don’t wanna let you down
I’m afraid you’ll run if you touch the ground
No I don’t wanna let you down anymore than I have to

Catch 1-22
03:38
|

Have you ever looked into a lover's eyes
Found a black hole where nothing goes to die
A lonely death, with one last breath, goodbye
Have you ever felt that everything you touch
Falls apart every time you care too much
Yeah that's the catch from one through to twenty two
And if life gave us a second chance we would find
Some peace of mind, from time to time
Have you ever heard that little voice inside
That tells you to run even when you've already tried
Countless times I've seen it in your eyes
And if life gave us a second chance we would find
Some peace of mind, from time to time
And if life gave us a second chance we would find
Some peace of mind
And if life gave us a second chance we would find
Some peace of mind, from time to time

Raise your glass to hard times, raise your glass a little higher to meet mine
And we'll find a way to escape the everyday we both know oh so well
Raise your glass to hard times, raise that glass
And we'll both walk that crooked line that's painted down this crooked town
Where right is wrong and feeling up can't be found, we both know oh so well
I've got everything to lose, I've got everything to gain
But I'm stuck inside my mind without a jacket in the rain
I've got nothing you need unless it's dreams you can haunt
And I'll carry you home if it's my lovin' that you want
Raise your glass to hard times, raise your glass
And I'll pour you some more wine to help you through
At least tonight, and in the morning everything will be all right
We both know oh so well
I've got everything to lose, I've got everything to gain
But I'm stuck inside my mind without a jacket in the rain
I've got nothing you need unless it's dreams you can haunt
And I'll carry you home if it's my lovin' that you want

Shirley
03:25
|
|||
Well Shirley was a banker but she couldn't count on me
I ran off with all her money that she kept in a can of coffee
Now I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
I'd hang myself now if I could find a rope
That'd reach around me and this clown I've become
Well Shirley, she had it comin' and surely she should've known
That I was no good for anyone and should never be left alone
Now I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
I'd hang myself now if I could find a rope
That'd reach around me and this clown I've become
Well sometimes you win and sometimes you lose
More often than not you don't get to choose
Let's play spin the bottle
Just me, you, and surely I'll win you back again
Shirley, I've cashed a few bad cheques in my day
And Shirley, she done cashed a few, too
But I never did hold a gun to her head like all those other men she knew
But I'm still damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
I'd hang myself now if I could find a rope
That'd reach around me and this clown I've become
Well sometimes you win and sometimes you lose
More often than not you don't get to choose
Let's play spin the bottle
Just me, you, and surely I'll win
Well sometimes you win and sometimes you lose
More often than not you don't get to choose
Let's play spin the bottle
Just me, you, and surely I'll win you back again

Two Lovers
03:18
|

Verse: D/G/D/G/D/A
Chorus: G/D/G/D/G/D/D/A/D
Two lovers in the fast lane on the wrong side of the road
Two lovers going nowhere fast and nowhere just as slow
No need to heed the warning signs they can’t see ‘em anyway
They’ve got love in their eyes and their big dumb hearts
There ain’t nothing you can say
(solo)
Well they started out as friends ’til they both got drunk one night
When they awoke neither of them spoke but it must’ve felt alright
‘Cause they didn’t leave that room for three days or maybe more
And I lost track but when I got back I got more than I bargained for
Two lovers in love
Two more than I’ve ever known
Two lovers in love
Don’t it make you want a love of your own
(solo)
Not yet a week had gone by when they headed for the lights
Of Las Vegas, Nevada to tie the knot and roll the dice
Well Elvis was there and I was too, and Marilyn’s by my side
We paid witness to, two lovers who, were just friends until that night
Two lovers in love
Two more than I’ve ever known
Two lovers in love
Don’t it make you want a love of your own
Two lovers in love
Two more than I’ve ever known
Two lovers in love
Don’t it make you want a love of your own
Don’t it make you want a love of your own

Locked Book
02:53
|
|||
She likes the sad songs that make her cry
Don't bother asking her to explain why
She hides behind her hair behind the sun
Whatever happened to that girl can't be undone
No one knows what could be
Inside that book that she locks with that key
That hangs around her neck and sets her free
Let her be
She carries 'round her tears in a mason jar
Waiting for a ray of hope and a shooting star
She likes to walk alone out in the rain
But she knows this town's too small to wash away her pain
No one knows what could be
Inside that book that she locks with that key
That hangs around her neck and sets her free
Let her be
No one knows what could be
Inside that book that she locks with that key
That hangs around her neck and sets her free
Let her be

The One You Go To
03:56
|
|||
When things aren't working out or in
And you can't understand a single thing
Let alone a bunch of things
Well that goes without saying anything
Well I don't know what you don't know and I can't see what you don't show
And I want to be the one you go to when you know
That I'm the one who's standing by your side
Through thick and thin, along for the ride
You drag me up and you drag me down
And I don't care which way I go just so long as you're around
They say there's someone for everyone
They say that girls, all they wanna do is have some fun
They never talk about the hearts that weigh a ton, no
They ain't talking 'bout anyone I know
I don't know what you don't know and I can't see what you don't show
And I want to be the one you go to when you know
That I'm the one who's standing by your side
Through thick and thin, along for the ride
You drag me up and you drag me down
And I don't care which way I go just so long as you're around
I don't know what you don't know and I can't see what you don't show
And I want to be the one you go to when you know
That I'm the one who's standing by your side
Through thick and thin, along for the ride
You drag me up and you drag me down
And I don't care which way I go just so long as you're around
No I don't care, just don't let me hit the ground
To be the one, to be the one you go to
To be the one, to be the one you go to
To be the one, to be the one you go to
To be the one, to be the one you go to now

Red Rover
03:33
|

Love's a game of Red Rover
Call my name over and over
It's all fun and games until my heart is broken
And your arms are finally wide open
Wear your lips of mine and I'll do the same with mine
Holding hands until they break one of us they make take
All is fair in love and war
Cross the imaginary line when we break unto the other side
The weakest link is all that I can hold
We all know it's you I can't control
Wear your lips of mine and I'll do the same with mine
Holding hands until they break one of us they make take
All is fair in love and war

Only You
04:01
|
|||
I know where I don't belong do you know where you do
You belong in my loving arms yes you do, yes you do
I know where I shouldn't be do you know where you should
You should be right here, right here next to me
Yes you should, yes you should
I know what I'm supposed to know do you know that you do, too
We both know we've got some lovin' left to do, left to do, left to do
Take all the time that you need
It's not like I've got somewhere else I'd rather be
But if your mind should wander over to my side of town
Look for the light that will always shine bright for you
Only you, only you
I know where I can't go, do you know where you can
You can come back home, come back, yes, you can, yes, you can
Take all the time that you need
It's not like I've got somewhere else I'd rather be
But if your mind should wander over to my side of town
Look for the light that will always shine bright for you
Only you, only you

Teenage Nights
03:59
|
|||
Well they say that someday soon the earth will all but be consumed
And the water we all know will cease to be
The life source of our coast, the blood,
Sweat, and tears of those we love most
And those lost at sea will forever be
Gone but not forgotten to the grave we go it alone
Gone but not forgotten let's not waste the time they're owed
Well I used to have this friend, he was older than me then
Now I'm nearly twice his age how can that be
He taught me everything I know about sex, drugs, and rock and roll
And those in-betweens are still a mystery
Gone but not forgotten, to the grave we go it alone
Gone but not forgotten, let's not waste the time they're owed
And if the rain don't get you down then take another look around
There's something strange about
This town, that I love, that I let down
Well they say that someday soon the earth will all but be consumed
And the water we all know will cease to be
The life source of our coast, the blood,
Sweat, and tears of those we love most
And those lost at sea will forever be
Gone but not forgotten, to the grave we go it alone
Gone but not forgotten, let's not waste the time they're owed
Gone but not forgotten, to the grave we go it alone
Gone but not forgotten, let's not waste the time they're owed
Gone but not forgotten
Gone but not forgotten

Matador On Acid
05:38
|
|||
I never wanted this for you
But I never let on just how much I knew
Now I'm tongue-tied and tangled and the cat's got my tongue
And I'm running out of reasons why it's easier said than done
I ain't got no frame of reference as far as I can see
I put my money on a horse that hasn't got any knees
Now I'm runnin' on the tracks
Too afraid to look back
I can hear the hounds-a-barkin'
To the tune of Hit the Road Jack
Now I'm still tongue-tied and tangled but I got the bull by the horns
Like a matador on acid having flashbacks full of scorn
About a rabbi and an Indian walking into a crowded bar
Seein' all the single ladies dancin' on the tables
From up close and from afar
Now I'm fallin' from the sky
To afraid to ask why
When I hit the ground I'm gonna shake its hand
And look it in the eye
Oh I never told you how I made it out alive
With a heavy-handed handshake and a little dirt in the eye
No I won't do that again if I have any say at all
Well I'll save it for another rainy day in the fall
Oh I never told you how I made it out alive
With a heavy-handed handshake and a little dirt in the eye
No I won't do that again if I have any say at all
Well I'll save it for another rainy day in the fall

Sparks & Gasoline
04:04
|
|||
Well you and I have grown so far apart
I'm starting to suspect a faulty heart
So where do we go from here, my dear
Where you're not screamin' in my ear
Come on back to me and I'll come back to you
No ever said that you'd be easy
And half the time, hell, you don't even please me
So where do we go from here, my dear
Where you're not screamin' in my ear
Come on back to me and I'll come back to you
Let's just agree to disagree
Just so long as you're with me
We can climb the smallest mountain
And it'll be Mt. Everest to me
I used to see that spark in your eye
And not wish for gasoline to fall from the sky
So where do we go from here, my dear
Where you're not screamin' for another beer
Come on back to me and I'll come back to you
Sometimes we lie in silence, sometimes with words
But most of what you say goes unheard
So where do we go from here, my dear
I guess I'll go drink me another beer
Come on back to me and I'll come back to you
Let's just agree to disagree
Just so long as you're with me
We can climb the smallest mountain
And it'll be Mt. Everest to me

Ol' Adam & Eve
03:52
|
|||
Everybody's got a story
And everybody's got a heart
Nobody's talking like they mean it
So let's all take it from the start
We got Adam and we got Eve
Let's all keep 'em company
Let's all take a bite out of the apple
And bite the hand that feeds
Where do we go from here
That we haven't been before
Somewhere between the clouds and Satan's cellar door
To find what we're all searching for
Everybody's got a story
That only half of us can tell
But some of us, we ain't buyin'
What the other half can't sell
So where does that leave ol' Adam and Eve
Somewhere the naked eye can't see
They're up in the trees eating all the apples
High above you and me
Where do we go from here
That we haven't been before
Somewhere between the clouds and Satan's cellar door
To find what we're all searching for
