Lyrics:
Intro 0:00-0:17

Verse 1: 0:17-0:32
saying it's a comedown
red light in the rear view, come on out
couldn't ever stay down
saying it's a comedown, come on out

Break 1: 0:32-0:48

Verse 2: 0:48-1:17
didn't wanna dress up
driving through the snow, you're dreaming now
something I should fess up
staring out the windshield at your house
circling the car park
capture you on canvas, walking round
looking for a landmark
saying it's a comedown, come on out

Break 2: 1:17-1:33

Verse 3: 1:33-2:03
drawing on your eyelids
sitting in the foxhole, praying now
I wanna be a pilot
but I can't get one foot off the ground
standing there in silence
watering the weeds, they'll come around
all I see is violet
saying it's a comedown, come on out

Outro: 2:03-end

Notes for performance:
- gtr 1: keep
- drums: more fills
- bass: keep rhythm, add more fills without breaking rhythm
- gtr 2: keep fills in breaks 1 and 2, write new but similar part for outro
- general: shorten outro

Notes for recording:
- gtr 1: center track whole take, right side top 3 strings 
- drums: match to live
- bass: match to live
- gtr 2: match to live, pan left
- slide: add in outro, possibly replace gtr 2
- vox: sing on key
- effects: synth/atmospheric effects, shooting for like a shimmery/tape delay type sound

B A

listen for # of repeats of B A part. use appropriate voicing

intro 0:00-0:14

verse 1 0:14-1:06
breathe in the bus exhaust
make up the time you lost
walking down franklin
pacing up the pavement
sitting in a circle
and recounting how your days went
brick wall in the basement
hydrangeas in the vases
going down the roster
trying to match the names to faces
said I couldn't find out
never really knew how
scratching at the skin on my hands
on that old couch
it's no use now

chorus 1: 1:06-1:30 
then I
try to forget
watching you undress
saw you in the curtain
you were tracing your silhouette
somewhere driving 90
summer in the county
leaning out the window
when we had no destination
yet
break: 1:30-1:40

verse 2 1:40-2:22
ambling down addison
on your way to see a friend
weaving through the traffic
waving out a matchstick
fumble through your pockets
trying to feel out how to find him
always on the back burn
taking all the wrong turns
etching out the shape of
a safer perimeter
and find the right words

chorus 2: 2:22-2:48
and I
try to forget
watching you undress
saw you in the curtain
you were smoking a cigarette 
somewhere driving 90
summer in the county
leaning out the window
when we had no destination
yet

outro: 2:48-end

Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
No music played today
Rode my bike to the river
Sat by the water
Felt the bugs bite at my skin
Felt how you pull me in

No radio when I drive
Took the locals back home
Windows rolled down
Drift for a mile
I saw the sun in your smile

[Verse 2]
Bad movies on tonight
We're talking about
The things that we can't
Take off of the couch
Does it bring you down?

No headlights on in the dark
We're spinning on out
The motor won't start
I’m spiraling now
I heard your voice from the crowd

Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Echoes out the front yard
Heard those kids playing out in the street
Falling off their old bikes
Scraping the dust off of their knees

[Chorus 1]
Sweaty hands, making plans for the evening
Get moving again
Dime book in the book case, I'll read it
Tell it all to a friend
Or put it down instead?

[Verse 2]
Woke up in that old room
Stood there spelling out a dream
Digging with a flashlight
Projecting decades on the screen

[Chorus 2]
Map it out, it gets too loud to see clearer
Than I could before
Cut my hair, take a stare in the mirror
End up on the floor
I don't care what I said
I’ll get moving again

I'll get moving again

Notes:
- acoustic guitar: minimal layering, get 2 stereo tracks very strummy

- bass: up to you
- electric guitar: layer a bit with 1 take of wes guitar 1 take of ham noodle (usually played on rhythm live) and maybe one take reinforcing rhythm in certain parts
- piano: follow guitars, add more melody parts

- harmonies: lots
