She’s Mean

Yeah she walked down the street

 

With the sunlight in her hair

And she looked so sweet

Like she did not have a care

And she walked up to me

With a tear drop in her eye

She said I don’t care where you’re going man

Can I come along for the Ride

 

(Chorus)

You know you took me to the end

With a smile like yours baby

This could be the end

You know you were never my Friend

Smile for me baby as you come back around again

 

Cold and damp was the day

When you said that you were gone

It’s a feeling I will never forget

And it just goes on and on

Once in a life time

There is a woman like you

It’s just my luck

And now I’m stuck

Chasing after you

 

(Chorus)

You know you took me to the end

With a smile like yours baby

This could be the end

You know you were never my Friend

Smile for me baby as you come back around again

 

 

A Million Miles

You were a million miles above me

Somewhere I could not go

You were a thousand miles behind me

And you left me lying in the cold

 

And it’s something that I can tell you

Something I just can’t say

As you leave me lying here in this

Shallow empty grave

 

You know I love you

You know I care

As if the morning sun weren’t

Shining in you hair

 

 

Guitar Solo

 

You know I love you

You know I care

As if the love we had just vanished

In the air

In the air

 

As if it didn’t matter to you

You moved out west

You said, yes I’m going away forever but believe me its for the best

And it’s something that you can’t tell me

Something you just can’t say

As we walk away from this relationship in misery

 

You know I love you

You know I care

As if the morning sun weren’t

Shining in you hair

Your Beautiful hair

 

 

 

You Don’t See

Standing on the side of the road

And know one knows where I’m going

Life turned so many ways

I had to leave before I faded away

Thought I might fade away

 

Sun is shinning in the sky

Won’t tell the tears that’s in my eyes

And I know just where you’re going

I seen it coming girl………….Along

I seen it coming girl…………..Along

 

The stupid smile you give to me

While walking past my misery

You don’t care

You don’t see

And I don’t care what happening

To me yeah

Yeah I don’t care what’s happening to me

Yeah

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh No She’s Back

 

She told me lies

She told the truth

She told me everything

That I could use

And now she’s gone

I don’t know why

She said she loved me

But I made her cry

 

And she’s gone

She’s gone

She’s gone

She’s gone

 

And now she’s back

I don’t know why

She said she loved me

But I made her cry

This can’t go on

I’ll go insane

She said she’d love me

Till my dying day

And she’s gone

She’s gone

She’s gone

She’s gone

Oh my God

Here she comes

She’s got her Momma with her

Oh No

What the hell did I do wrong

 

12 bar Blues in A

Marring Blues

Well a Friend of mine

Well he got himself engaged

Went down to the local jewelry store

And he bought himself a cage

Don’t know what he got himself into

I think he’s seen better days

 

On you’re wedding day baby

When you’re on your hands and knees

Yeah you’re marring day honey

When you’re singing sweet harmonies

You may be looking baby

But you won’t see me

 

Yeah come to me baby when your kinda hot

Come on over baby I’ll give you all I got

But if you want to talk about marring No No no

Well I thing you better not

 

Cause I got the marring blues

I sing em all the time

Yeah the marring blues

And I sing them all the time

But if you want to see my Motel room

I think that would be fine

 

Yeah … Mighty fine

 

Come up and see me sometime baby

 

 

 

 

 

Lets Go Out Dancing

Well my baby she called me last Saturday night

Said do you want to go out on the town

I said come on baby you called me last week

And you were just fooling around.

 

Come on baby

Lets go out dancing

Come on baby lets get on out tonight

Were going to do it babe

Were going to do it

And do it up right

 

I took you out on the town last week all you did was bitch and moan

Crawling around on the floor like a dog

You said you wanted to go home

Come on baby

Lets go out dancing

Come on baby lets get on out tonight

Wear your red dress babe

And you wear that damn thing tight

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Leaving Town

 

I lost a few friends

Down the line

Ain’t nothing I can’t make up babe

On borrowed time

 

I seen it coming

Since late last week

You been hiding in the corner honey

Wont even speak to me

 

I know what they’re saying

I know what’s going on

I ain’t no goddamn fool babe

I seen it coming all along

Yesterdays tomorrow

Tomorrow is a lie

I always said you could tell a man or women

By looking in their eyes

I their eyes

 

 

Is it something I said

Or something I did

Cause it really don’t make much difference babe

Let’s call it quits

 

You know what I’m doing

The next bus or train hell Ill walk

I’m leaving town

 

Its Alright

Walking down empty streets

On this lonely night

Out on my own

 

Dark eyes and ruby lips

From a Lonely smile

Still on my own

 

And I know its not forever

And it’s just for one night

And I thought it would last forever

Not one night

Not for just one night

 

All alone in my hotel room

And everything I own is gone

Left in a room

Where nothing can go wrong

Last night was a dream

And I hope I’m still dreaming

Still on my own

 

And I know its not forever

And it’s just for one night

And I thought it would last forever

Not one night

Not for just one night

 

 

 

 

 

In Walked Tim

Feeling kind of tired on the side of the road

 

My Jiffy lube oil change has come back to bite me

 

So I’m stuck on the side of the road

 

I don’t know where to go!

 

Sunshine, it’s a Saturday after noon down by the gas station

 

Sodas are a nickel and there’s free air

 

Sunshine is for living

 

Not to beware

 

Beware

 

Ella voice stuff

 

It’s was just the other day I was out in my canoe

 

I saw this beautiful babe standing next to me I didn’t know what to do

 

So I walked on over that raging sea

Said pretty lady wont you

Come out walking with me

Come out walking with me

In walked Tim

 

In walked Tim

I Realize

As the clouds rolled in

And the day got Gray

A wicked smile was all I could see

As she was walking away

 

The dress she wore that night was blue

And as dark as the sky was the stars were shining

Just for you

 

We stepped onto the street and the moon caught your eyes

And I swear at the moment I never will forget just how

I realize I realize I realize

Its all for you

 

As the day wore on the clouds got thicker in the sky

As my heart grew stronger alone and scared with every cry

The wind was howling and the sky was dark

And the sun broke through the clouds

And you were gone

And I realize I realize I realize

It’s all true

 

It’s the next day and I’m tired

And I can’t get out of bed cause

I think I’m blind

Shame and humility wash over you like a tidal pool

Left alone in the darkness like some goddamn fool

Some goddamn fool

 

 

Days of the Week

 

Monday morning I’m alone

Tuesday comes and I’m still here by myself

Alone

 

Wednesday afternoons the same

No one seems to win

At any game

Thursday afternoon brings rain

And I m sitting here

Alone again

Alone again

 

Days of the week

They seem to fly

 

Tuesday afternoon alone

Yeah I went and checked the house

But there’s still nobody home

Why does it always seem the same

Did I leave you or did you leave me it seems

No one here is to blame

No ones to blame

 

Days of the week

They seem to fly

 

 

 

Central Park

It was another beautiful day

In Central Park

The birds were flying high and I was watching the ladies walk

Suddenly dark things were falling from the sky

How were we to know so many good people would die

 

Come on over baby

We got time

Come on over baby

It will be fine

 

It and it was just yesterday

We all were gathered round

Blue sky up above told us live would never end

And we would all always be around

Maybe you don’t see that

From where you’re standing right now

But look straight ahead

And we will all make it through some how

 

Come on over baby

We got time

Come on over baby

It will be fine

 

 

 

Am I Wrong

Em

Holding on to what is left

 

D Em

After the wind ripped through my town and left me here in the dirt on my back

 

Em D

Sailing home under bright blue skies

 

C Bm

You know I’m dream of better days with a woman I used to know… when I was fine

Guitar (both parts again)

Em

Something about her tells me I’m wrong

D Em

And I cant keep on going like this I’ll be dead and gone

 

Em D

You told me once and then you ran away

Guitar (both parts again)

 

C Bm

What the hell was I doing here in the first place anyway?

Em

Life Ticks alone

D

And you stand on your own trying to be strong

Em

In the wind

 

Em D

I cannot stand the blindness that’s in front of me

 

C Bm

Like the tortured people in Israel and Palestine Where’s it all gonna lead

 

Em

Where’s it all gonna lead

 

 

 

MARS

I hear that Mars is getting close to the Earth

And you can see it at night in the sky

Its a real true story not like the made up ones tv

Its all lies

I cant see it

 

Jam with John

What you just said and what your mean

As if it didnt mean a thing to me

I walked out your door

I smoked a cigar on the corner

with a local whore

She told me it didnt really mean anything to her

And I said

I concur

Days go by and your stuck in the same room

Lives fall apart and its all the same gloom

Misterys happen on the edge of time

And know one can tell you

Whats the ryme

Yah Tell me whats the ryme

Know one can tell me what the ryme is

Its got to be a ryme

Its a RYME

Someone told me, that the moon was close to the sun

If I believe them I'd believe anyone

You Looked at me in the eye and you said you lied

And I believe you baby

And I cried

And then I cried

yah I cried

I Cried
