Lyrics

Forget about the static
It's noise and fuzz
All these people round here
They just like to buzz

Feel so different
When you don't care
Let all those people
Worry about themselves

Peaceful livin, Peaceful livin,
Peaceful livin is in your mind
Peaceful livin, Peaceful livin
Peaceful livin is in your grasp

Wear those headphones
Block out the noise
Keep those coyotes runnin
Play with your toys

Meteors coming tonight
Lay in the truck
It's a blue and white old ford
Let's have some luck

Peaceful livin, Peaceful livin
Peaceful livin is in your mind
Peaceful livin, peaceful livin
Peaceful livin is in your grasp

trampolines in barns

Peaceful Livin

Hurting 

You say I let you down but I was never that high
You say I turned my back but I was facing the right way
Such a foregone conclusion,
not a lover but a friend your’e losing now 
So sad , still hurts me at the same time
So sad and I’ll be hurting for a long time

You say I’m not the same but I know who I am 
You say I have no heart but I was only a false start 
Just an optical illusion,
Not a lover but a friend your’e losing now 
So sad , still hurts me at the same time
So sad and I’ll be hurting for a long time

So take your baggage and get packing 
A suitcase of entitlement 
I will be well clear of your drama 
I’ll be moving on….

Hurting

When your partner cannot appreciate what they’ve already got 

Chasing Rainbows  (Remastered)

The Time Traveller

A Ballad of Scottish Banter

Verse 1
There’s a house at the end of this dusty old road,
With peeling paint and a porch sagging low.
But every evening when the sun sinks down,
A light flickers on, and she’s always around.
A silhouette framed by the curtain’s lace,
A quiet sadness written on her face.

Pre-Chorus
No one knows her name, where she’s been, or why,
But you can see the story in her faraway eyes.

Chorus
The girl in the window, she’s watching the night,
Searching the shadows for a fading light.
Waiting for someone who never came home,
Staring through glass, living life alone.
She’s a mystery, lost in the wind’s low cry,
The girl in the window with tears in her eyes.

Verse 2
The town whispers tales of a love gone wrong,
Of promises broken, of waiting too long.
They say he left on a stormy July,
And she’s been waiting since that goodbye.
But time don’t heal when the heart won’t let go,
She’s frozen in place, where only she knows.

Pre-Chorus
The world keeps spinning, but she stays the same,
Locked in a memory that calls his name.

Chorus
The girl in the window, she’s watching the night,
Searching the shadows for a fading light.
Waiting for someone who never came home,
Staring through glass, living life alone.
She’s a mystery, lost in the wind’s low cry,
The girl in the window with tears in her eyes.

Bridge
If I could, I’d tell her to let it all go,
But love leaves a mark that we all know.
Maybe she’s stronger than we’ll ever be,
Holding on to what the rest of us set free.

Chorus (Key Change)
The girl in the window, she’s watching the night,
Hoping for more than the fading light.
Waiting for someone to walk through that door,
Though she knows deep down, he’s not hers anymore.
She’s a story of love that won’t say goodbye,
The girl in the window with stars in her eyes.

Outro
So here I am, standing down on the street,
Looking up at a dream she’ll never complete.
The world moves on, but she’ll always be,
The girl in the window, staring at me

The girl in the window

I am still loving you

02 You're Still On My Mind

Cover of the 1988 hit "Copperhead Road" by Steve Earle. Started with a simple track of acoustic guitar and vocal by the incredible Scott Shenk. I got invited in to add keys, and also did the mix and master. Also enjoyed collaborating with these incredible musicians, Fabian- Bass (Argentina), Craig- Drums (US).

Copperhead Road (Steve Earle Cover) **Full Band Reproduction/Collaboration

Verse 1)
Momma’s sitting’ on the porch swing, her head hanging’ low,
Got the weight of the world in her heart, it’s starting’ to show.
Daddy’s been gone for years, the crops just won’t grow,
And the bank came calling last night, she’s got nowhere to go.

(Chorus)
Oh, Momma got the blues, Lord, she’s fighting’ to stay strong,
But the pain’s been howling’ through her soul all night long.
The wind’s been whispering’, telling’ secrets she can’t lose,
A hard life’s a bitter tune when Momma’s got the blues.

(Verse 2)
Her hands are calloused, and her back’s seen its share,
She gave it all for her family, but life’s just not fair.
The old record player hums a tune she used to sing,
But the music don’t feel the same without a diamond ring.

(Chorus)
Oh, Momma got the blues, Lord, she’s fighting’ to stay strong,
But the pain’s been howling’ through her soul all night long.
The wind’s been whispering’, telling’ secrets she can’t lose,
A hard life’s a bitter tune when Momma’s got the blues.

(Bridge)
She stares at the horizon, the sun starts to set,
Dreams of better days she can’t quite forget.
But a mother’s love’s a fire, it’ll burn till the end,
And she holds on tight, hopping’ tomorrow might bend.

(Chorus)
Oh, Momma got the blues, Lord, she’s fighting’ to stay strong,
But the pain’s been howling’ through her soul all night long.
The wind’s been whispering’, telling’ secrets she can’t lose,
A hard life’s a bitter tune when Momma’s got the blues.
A hard life’s a bitter tune when Momma’s got the blues.

(Outro)
She stares at the horizon, the sun starts to set,
Dreams of better days she can’t quite forget.
But a mother’s love’s a fire, it’ll burn till the end,
And she holds on tight, hopping’ tomorrow might bend.

Momma got the blues,

Jerry Reed- I have his autograph on my old Takemine that is just about faded out.  Jerry was just inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame this year.  Love this man and his music.  I have tried to play his claw type of fingerpicking, but it is so difficult and so many types of tuning.   I dropped my guitar down 1/2 step and played in drop D tuning.  The best I can do is to try and capture a little of his style
