I Believe In You by Play It If You Want
Nose dives and airplanes
Comic books and suicides
I’m driving down your street tonight
Running all the stoplights
You don’t have to live so hard
Come on baby, let down your gaurd
You believe in pills and love
and I believe in you
Living out your hurricanes
Underneath the streetlights
Acting out your masquerades
Underneath the moonlight
You don’t have to look so hard
Come on baby, show me your cards
You believe in pills and love
and I believe in you
The Golden Shore - Play It If You Want
I wish a girl would sing this, if you’re a girl and play this kind of thing I’ll send you the chords/lyrics
I would love to hear a girl do this.
Coming Down Is Hard To Do - Play It If You Want
Bedroom lies and alibis
You deserve more
Like baseball games and Saturdays
And god’s golden shore
But living with a ripcord
Just ain’t for me
So, so long, it’s been fun
I hope you do agree
Cigarettes and candy bars
And your ma’s perfume
Skipping school to fuck
In dirty motel rooms
And the coming down
Was hard to do
We left just a dimebag
And a ten dollar watch
An old picture of us, baby
Under a bottle of scotch
When you asked my reasons
I couldn’t tell you why,
I couldn’t take your footsteps
And the tears in your eyes
And the coming down
Was hard too
A duet, the guy and girl trade lines and sing the chorus together
On The Road - Play It If You Want
Leave your cards on the table
Keep your shoes by the door
I know love’s important
I’m just not sure what for
I feel like ending
Before I even start
And I’m young and I’m restless
And I’m not that smart
And I’ve got the feeling
My story’s been told
So I’ll keep you company
While you’re on the road
You can love them or leave them
It ends up the same
It’s just acres of heartache
And a head full of names
Yes, I’m lazy and jealous
I waste my time in the bars
But I’ll hold your hand
While you reach for the stars
And I’ve got the feeling
My story’s been told
So I’ll keep you company
While you’re on the road
I Believe In You by Play It If You Want
Nose dives and airplanes
Comic books and suicides
I’m driving down your street tonight
Running all the stoplights
You don’t have to live so hard
Come on baby, let down your gaurd
You believe in pills and love
and I believe in you
Living out your hurricanes
Underneath the streetlights
Acting out your masquerades
Underneath the moonlight
You don’t have to look so hard
Come on baby, show me your cards
You believe in pills and love
and I believe in you
Coming Down is Hard To Do
I think a girl would do this one well
The River of Sin - Play It If You Want
The road is long, the sky is gray
Since you took your love away
You left my bed, you left me in
A deep and wide river of sin
The morning birds, sound like the rain
Since you took away your chains
When you put me down, you put me in
A deep and wide river of sin
Those lonely words you said to me
A heartbreaking memory
You broke the dam, it rushed right in
The deep and wide river of sin
You stole my heart, you stole my breath
So take it all, there’s nothing left
Just this ache, a pint of gin,
A deep and wide river of sin
I’ve recorded this one a few times but I made some changes to it. Again, if you want to record it, send me a message in the Ask box and I’ll send you the chords.
It Didn’t Work This Time - Play It If You Want
I’ll think of our silhouettes
Your souvenirs and bayonets
And I won’t want to change a thing
I’ll think of our bad luck
The trailer park and my pick up truck
You could make the church bells ring
It fell apart before our eyes
Our promises turned into lies
And you could make a buzzard sing
The light fell down into the room
From a half crescent waning moon
And we had to take a swing
Nobody knows where the rain goes
And who cares anyway?
There are people to see and possibilities
It just didn’t work this time
I saw you hold out your hands
High above the Rio Grande
And yell curses at the waves
With all the love that you demand
Your regiments and marching bands
I didn’t stand a chance
But I think if you and me
Could put down our dignity
We would have a fine romance
Nobody knows where the rain goes
And who cares anyway?
There are people to see and possibilities
It just didn’t work this time
The Golden Shore - The Theatre Darling
This is the first one of the songs I’ve put up here that someone else on tumblr has recorded. It was recorded by this person, http://thetheatredarling.tumblr.com/, and she did an amazing job, she really has a great voice!
If anyone else interested in recording one of these songs just send me a message and I’ll send you the chords and lyrics.
A good day, officially 100 followers and someone recorded a version of one of the songs for the first time. Hopefully I can get it up here soon! If anyone else is interested in playing one of these songs, email me and i’ll put it up.
