(138 bpm) With a "D walkdown", end of chorus holds on a walkdown (to C?), and then changes (to d) and holds again (...but I've got no home) upbeat (which is strange because it's a sad-ish song) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Drums / beat ---------------------------------------------------------------- Main (Repeat 3 times): 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 do dat do-do dat do dat do-do dat Walkdown: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 do-do dat-dat do-do dat-dat do-do dat-dat do-do dat-dat End (i got, plenty of friends)...er something like this, hopefully it gets the idea across: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 do-do dat-dat Crash rest rest rest rest rest 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 rest rest rest rest dat-dat do-do dat-dat Crash ---------------------------------------------------------------- Lyrics ---------------------------------------------------------------- Woke up this morning just starin' at the sky Lyin' in my bed just a'wonderin' why why can't I find what I seem to need Why is my life so full of weeds. Been lookin' for years, for piece of mind A slice this earth that I can call mine A few pepper plants, a couple peach trees this world wasn't made for men like me Yeah...I got plenty of friends... But I've got no home. (instrumental) Can't keep livin' with an empty heart Rusty and broken, gonna fall apart How much longer can I last this way How much longer can I laugh it away Watching my life come slowly undone Time's one thing you can never outrun For so long I thought I had a plan The boy has grown, this child is a man Yeah...I got plenty of friends... But I've got no home. (instrumental) (walk down) [bridge - modulate] I've had things I wanted to go for, Most of those have been kicked out the back door, It's been a blast, and I've had fun, But I feel like I lost more than I won (de-modulate) I got plenty of friends... But I've got no home.
saw a cool color in the sky that I’d never seen before. went from powder blue by the sunset to deep navy blue opposite. not a cloud in sight, just a single star (or planet I’m presuming). I wish i had my real camera…

Know a girl
don’t believe in love at all
Hearts been broken
thrown against the wall
a little prison she builds on her own
take it or leave it
she’s movin on
Love’s a battle
can’t never be won
just let it alone
so she can have her fun
she’s out on the town
all the misery-o
if you’re goin out again
just give me a call
she’s a mystery
to me and herself
she might like you
but she loves herself
in her eyes all anger and fear
she ain’t gonna show it
won’t shed a tear
Pre-release version:
No Love
Wore out strings, know broken dreams,
empty glasses know broken hearts
Like a forest bereft of all streams,
they don’t like to be apart
Give it some time,
let nature take hold.
Forests ‘r like hearts,
they like to grow old
And he played the fiddle
while she would dance
short skirt twirled ’round corduroy pants.
Old age, new age,
we’ll meet in the middle
Singing the song of forbidden fiddle
Old rusty dinghy,
brand new cell phone
Best thing about
those they always see you home
He rows his boat
like she goes to the store
Buyin’ brand new clothes
she can’t afford
And he played the fiddle
while she would dance
short skirt twirled ’round corduroy pants.
Old age, new age,
we’ll meet in the middle
Singing the song of forbidden fiddle
Pre-Release Version:
Forbidden Fiddle
