I Thought I knew You

Working with a new Martin acoustic, the same old Telecaster, and a new Boss Katana Amp.

Lyrics:
I’m out of bed pre-dawn ‘cause I’m working out of state
And drive a couple hours so I can get there at eight
Settle myself in and work hard the rest of the day
Stay focused and wide awake and make it though some way

No one said it was easy
But I’m taking the challenges when they come
Explore the place after hours
And try to have a little bit of fun now
Pass up the big chains
For some evening food and drink
Watch that game on the TV
And try not to overthink

Chorus:
So let the good times roll and the bad times go		
Sometimes you learn hard lessons
Other times you go with what you know
The stress level gets a bit crazy
And sometimes I miss my friends
No worries 			
I am coming home again


Sitting in the restaurant worried about what could go wrong
I’m feeling like I’m the character in that old Bob Seger song
Someone at random asks me if I’m okay
I tell her I’m all good
I’m kust up past my bedtime on a double shift day

But I’m up the next morning
Taking it on but it’s not that taxing
Free to go again
I’m driving home and now I’m relaxing
Pulling into my garage
These cats  knew I was getting close
Here we go again
With the hugs and the kisses and the purrbox dose

(Chorus)

Bridge
It’s late in the evening
Driving down through Tiverton I see a welcome sight
I’m feeling like an island boy again
Those bridges looks good lit up at night


Guitar Lead 

So I’m taking a staycation life is sweet
Gotta get energy back before I feel  that summer heat
I’m back at my favorite hangouts and I’m finding my smile 
Pub style at the Pub at 2 Mile. I’m gonna stay for a while

(Chorus)

Coming Home Again

Take Me Back

Cheap Oil is a modern protest song criticising the extraction & transport of oil from the Alberta tar sands and the North Dakota oil fields. We are short changing our future generations by way of pollution, resource depletion, and animal endangerment - ALL FOR cheaper gas prices now. All proceeds for this tune will go to Minnesota Interfaith Power & Light, an anti pipeline org. in my hometown of Minneapolis, MN.
lyrics
Ooh, Trains at night, trains in the day and they don’t stop
Ooh, Bringing me sweet relief by the penny at the gas pump

We’re making a big mistake
To take all that we can take
Our spinning Mother’s back is gonna break - for Cheap Oil

Ooh, We’re pouring it out by the barrel in the green fields
Ooh, Mile by mile we’re snuffing out life around the steel wheels

There’s a fire in the vast wetland
Where the trestles cross the land
& we’ve all gone to sleep in our beds with blood on our hands - Cheap oil
(Chorus)
Cheap oil, cheap oil
We’re barking up the wrong tree, brother (2x)
We pay and we pay just to roll along today
We give it all away, How’re our babies gonna pay
For this cheap oil?

Ooh, in the middle of the night I hear the rumble of the long train
Ooh, a job’s a job and a man’s gotta eat but it’s not the same

We’re stealing from future mouths
while the pipeline gouges South
our children’s children turn as we curse the soil - Cheap oil

Our future children cry
as the birds fall from the sky
and the tanker trucks roll by full of tar sands spoil -
God damn this Cheap Oil

Cheap Oil

A hauntingly beautiful exploration of the slow erosion of memory, capturing the essence of living with dementia. Through evocative lyrics and ethereal soundscapes, the song compares the fading memories of a life once vivid to the slow, inevitable fading of Polaroid photographs left in the sun. As the music weaves through themes of loss, disorientation, and nostalgia, it invites listeners to reflect on the fragility of memory and the passage of time.

Lyrics

I’m a book with pages turning blank
Once a story, now just faded ink
The plot is thinning, words slip away
Like whispers in the wind, they won't stay

I’m a house with open doors
Rooms I don’t recall anymore
Shadows on the walls, they dance and they hide
Lost in a maze I used to reside

Fading Polaroids on the wall
Colors bleed, but they don’t fall
Snapshots of a life I can’t recall
They’re here and then they’re gone,
Like echoes in an empty hall

I’m a clock without a face, spinning slow
No hands to tell the time, no way to know
The hours blend into a twilight haze
Moments slipping by like a dream that strays

I’m a ship with no anchor, adrift at sea
Waves of memories wash over me
Some are clear, but most are lost
Sailing through a fog, I can’t count the cost

Fading Polaroids on the wall
Colors bleed, but they don’t fall
Snapshots of a life I can’t recall
They’re here and then they’re gone,
Like echoes in an empty hall

I reach out, but the pictures blur
Fingertips touch what once was sure
I chase the light, but it slips away
Like chasing shadows at the break of day

Fading Polaroids on the wall
Colors bleed, but they don’t fall
Snapshots of a life I can’t recall
They’re here and then they’re gone,
Like echoes in an empty hall

I’m a fading photograph, left in the sun
Once so vivid, now undone
Memories like Polaroids, lost in time’s embrace
I’ll keep them close, even as they erase

Fading Polaroids
