She's A Little Wildflower

Written by Barry Muir and Paul Tobin. Off Barry Muir's soon to be released album (January 10th, 2022), "Gentle"

VERSE 1
I wasn't born in this subway
Sometimes it just seems like it
Wasn't much hope on the outside
Nothing seemed to fit
It's not so bad down here 
All my friends come around
It kinda feels like home 
You get use to all the sounds
CHORUS 1
People ask me if I'm a religious man
I could be if you think I should
My place to repent my sins 
Is in the Church at the Hollywood
VERSE 2
I play my guitar for every passerby
Sometimes just for a smile
Every now and then I see someone
I haven't see in awhile
I don't feel bad 
I wear these old shoes on my feet
All I need is a little change
For something warm to eat
CHORUS 2
BRIDGE
Downtown, Downtown
In the Church at the Hollywood
VERSE 3
We stick around for tea and cookies
This is my family, this is my life
I had a real job once
And a car like yours and a beautiful wife
I'm not crazy about working 9 to 5
I'm not expecting to live a long, long life
CHORUS 3
OUTRO

Room With A View

Waiting For The Sun To Rise
Written by Barry Muir, Joanne Stacey and Lucy LeBlanc

Verse 1:   
I've been dreaming such a long, long time
Not sure where my future lies
But I know I'm going to find my way
I'm just waiting for the sun to rise  

Verse 2:
I've been counting the stars above 
Thinking they could be my guide
Show me places still unknown
While I'm waiting for the sun to rise

Chorus:           
And it's a beautiful night        
I'm so happy to be alive       
Keeps me mystified              
On this ever changing ride

Verse 3:
I've been holding my breath too long
Cuz I don't wanna say goodbye
Lord just give me one more day
I'm just waiting for the sun to rise

Chorus:              
And it's a beautiful night             
I'm so happy to be alive      
Keeps me mystified                
On this ever changing ride

Verse 1:  
I've been dreaming such a long, long time 
Not sure where my future lies
But I know I'm going to find my way
I'm just waiting for the sun to rise

Show Me

It’s one of those days I just don’t know
One of those kind of moods when time moves so slow
Don’t want to be thinking of nothing to serious
I don’t know why everything has to be so mysterious
Sometimes words aren’t enough
I need something more to pick me up

CHORUS			
Oh baby so show me			
Show me how you really feel

VERSE 2
Let’s stop sleep walking and bumping into ghosts
Turn the lights on, am I the one you need the most?
Even in my dreams oo I see your face
Like a shadow on the wall you’re gone without a trace
And now we’re stuck here every time
I wish that I could, I could read your mind

CHORUS 2
Baby so show me
Show me how you really feel
Baby so show me
Show me how you really feel

VERSE 3
When I’m at a loss of what to say
I grab my guitar and start to play
Maybe sing it, just wing it you’re on the tip of my tongue
Can you feel it, let’s seal it while we’re still young that’s right

CHORUS 3
Baby so show me 
Show me how you really feel
Baby so show me
Show me how you really feel
I need you to show me
Won’t you show me

Show Me

From the album "The Wild and Beautiful" written by L. LeBlanc/B. Muir

Bending The Strings 

My week hasn’t gone so well, It wasn’t long before I fell 
Into a blue funk and my heart sunk
I didn’t know where to go from here. So confused my mind unclear
Pulse was racing, spent my days pacing
There’s one thing I can count on when I feel this way
I reach for my old guitar and I start to play

CHORUS
I’m bending the strings, re-awakening
All the emotions that I feel inside are pouring out like a flood tide
I’m bending the strings, letting go of everything
All that matters in this moment are me and my guitar
I’m bending the string  
				
VERSE 2 
I heard the news from a friend, it was the beginning of the end 
Didn’t see that coming now the rumours running
That my girl’s found someone new, the magic we had was through
It’s driving me crazy, it’s all so hazy 
There’s one thing I can count on when I feel this way
I pick up my old guitar and I start to play

CHORUS 2
I’m bending the strings, re-awakening
All the emotions that I feel inside are pouring out like a flood tide
I’m bending the strings, letting go of everything
All that matters in this moment are me and my guitar
I’m bending the string  

BRIDGE
I’m bending the strings 
Letting go of everything
I’m bending the strings, just me and my guitar
Like a rock star 
I’m bending the strings

Bending The Strings

I've just completed my newest album called "Bakersfield" for a Spring, 2024 release. My last album, "In The Meantime" is still going strong with the single "Windowpane" receiving much attention largely due to Spotify radio playing it continuously over the past many months. The video for "There You Were" has close to 50,000 views now on my YouTube barrymuirVEVO channel. Give it a search to see other videos from my past three albums.  I'll be posting a few sneak listens from "Bakersfield" here on soundcloud so stay tuned. Hope you enjoy listening to these songs I've posted from several of my albums along with a few acoustic numbers, as much as I've enjoyed recording them.
