Santa Fe – No Chord

They say that no man is an island
And good things come to those who wait
But the things i hear are there
Just to remind me
Every dog will have his day

The spirits they intoxicate me
I watched them infiltrate my soul
They try to say it’s too late for me
Tell my guns i’m coming home

I swear i’m gonna live forever
Tell my maker he can wait
I’m riding somewhere south of heaven
Heading back to santa fe
It’s judgment day in santa fe

Once i was promised absolution
There’s only one solution for my sins
You gotta face your ghosts and know
With no illusions
That only one of you is going home again

And i blame this world for making
A good man evil
It’s this world that can drive a
Good man mad
And it’s this world that turns a killer
Into a hero
Well i blame this world for making
A good man bad

Now i ain’t getting into heaven
If the devil has his way
I swear i’m gonna live forever
Heading back to santa fe
Got debts to pay in santa fe
It’s judgment day in santa fe

Solo

So i save a prayer
When i need it most
To the father, son
And the holy ghost
And i’ll sign it from a sinner
With no name

When i meet my maker
Will he close the book
On the hearts i broke
And the lives i took
Will he walk away
’cause my soul’s
It’s too late to save

Now i ain’t getting into heaven
If the devil has his way
I swear i’m gonna live forever
Heading back to santa fe
Got debts to pay in santa fe
It’s judgment day in santa fe

Miracle – No Chord

A penny for your thoughts now baby
Looks like the weight of the world’s
On your shoulders now

I know you think you’re going crazy
Just when it seems everything’s
Gonna work itself out
They drive you right back down

And you said it ain’t fair
That a man walks
When a bird can fly
We have to kick the ground
The stars kiss the sky
They say that spirits live
A man has to die
They promised us truth
Now they’re giving us lies

Gonna take a miracle top save us this time
And your savior has just left town
Gonna need a miracle
’cause it’s all on the line
And i won’t let you down
(no i won’t let you down)
The river of your hope is flooding
And i know the dam is busted
If you need me i’ll come running
I won’t let you down… no, no

You’re looking for salvation
You thought that it’d be shining
Like an angel’s light
Well, the angels left this nation
And salvation caught the last train
Out tonight
He lost one hell of a fight

He said
I’m just one man, that’s all i’ll ever be
I never can be everything you wanted from me
I’ve got plans so big
That any blind man could see
I’m standing in the river
Now i’m drowning in the sea

Gonna take a miracle top save us this time
And your savior has just left town
Gonna need a miracle
’cause your heart’s on the line
And your heartbeat is slowing down
Your feet are grounded still
You’re reaching for the sky
You can let ‘em clip your wings
’cause i believe that you can fly

Solo

Well my eyes have seen the horror
Of the coming of the flood
I’ve driven deep the thorny crown
Into the soul of someone’s son
Still i’ll look you in the eye
’cause i’ve believed in things i’ve thought
And i’ll die without regret
For the wars i have fought

Gonna take a miracle top save you this time
And your savior has just left town
Gonna need a miracle
’cause your heart’s doing time
And your conscience is calling you out
It ain’t all for nothing
Life ain’t written in the sand
I know the tide is coming
But it’s time we made a stand
With a miracle

Bed of Roses – No Chord

Sitting here wasted and wounded
At this old piano
Trying hard to capture
The moment this morning i don’t know
’cause a bottle of vodka
Is still lodged in my head
And some blond gave me nightmares
I think she’s still in my bed
As i dream about movies
They won’t make of me when i’m dead

With an ironclad fist i wake up and
French kiss the morning
While some marching band keeps
Its own beat in my head
While we’re talking
About all of the things that i long to believe
About love and the truth and
What you mean to me
And the truth is baby you’re all that i need

I want to lay you on a bed of roses
For tonite i sleep on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close as the holy ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses

Well i’m so far away
That each step that i take is on my way home
A king’s ransom in dimes i’d given each night
Just to see through this payphone
Still i run out of time
Or it’s hard to get through
Till the bird on the wire flies me back to you
I’ll just close my eyes and whisper,
Baby blind love is true

I want to lay you down on a bed of roses
For tonite i sleep on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close as the holy ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses

The hotel bar hangover whiskey’s gone dry
The barkeeper’s wig’s crooked
And she’s giving me the eye
I might have said yeah
But i laughed so hard i think i died

When you close your eyes
Know i’ll be thinking about you
While my mistress she calls me
To stand in her spotlight again
Tonite i won’t be alone
But you know that don’t
Mean i’m not lonely i’ve got nothing to prove
For it’s you that i’d die to defend

I want to lay you down on a bed of roses
For tonite i sleep on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close as the holy ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses

Always – No Chord

This romeo is bleeding
But you can’t see his blood
It’s nothing but some feelings
That this old dog kicked up

It’s been raining since you left me
Now i’m drowning in the flood
You see i’ve always been a fighter
But without you i give up

Now i can’t sing a love song
Like the way it’s meant to be
Well, i guess i’m not that good anymore
But baby, that’s just me

And i will love you, baby – always
And i’ll be there forever and a day – always
I’ll be there till the stars don’t shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don’t rhyme
And i know when i die, you’ll be on my mind
And i’ll love you – always

Now your pictures that you left behind
Are just memories of a different life
Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry
One that made you have to say goodbye
What i’d give to run my fingers through your hair
To touch your lips, to hold you near
When you say your prayers try to understand
I’ve made mistakes, i’m just a man

When he holds you close, when he pulls you near
When he says the words you’ve been needing to hear
I’ll wish i was him ’cause those words are mine
To say to you till the end of time

Yeah, i will love you baby – always
And i’ll be there forever and a day – always

If you told me to cry for you
I could
If you told me to die for you
I would
Take a look at my face
There’s no price i won’t pay
To say these words to you

Well, there ain’t no luck
In these loaded dice
But baby if you give me just one more try
We can pack up our old dreams
And our old lives
We’ll find a place where the sun still shines

And i will love you, baby – always
And i’ll be there forever and a day – always
I’ll be there till the stars don’t shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don’t rhyme
And i know when i die, you’ll be on my mind
And i’ll love you – always
