This is great!! I love acoustic music, its raw and emotional :)

Bone Dry

Somewhere in the middle of time
I see you
Somewhere in another time
I see you

Somewhere in the middle of time
I see you
Somewhere in another time
I see you

I don't know but I've been told
I resemble you
Apple of my eye
All your dreams come true

What is it you want from me?
What is it you need?
How can I help you?
I'll try

Only problem is
Your heart is Bone Dry

Capo 2
Bb G E/E7
G D B7 E/E7

blasting off into outer space
grown tired of the human race
set the throttle into hyperdrive 
and just ride

The first thing you notice
about the black between the stars
if you can't handle lonliness
you ain't gettin too far


but I've had a dream
since before I was young
reach my hand up to the sky 
and steal the sun

and now I know what 
it means to live free 
makin my way as a 
celestial thief

hey hey hey

planning for my get away
to the edge of the galaxy
and I know that no one want's 
to follow me there

the law it surely can't track me down
never could see me any how
I grew up in the shadows 
that learning about now

and I had this dream 
since before I was young
to reach my hand up to the sky
and steal the sun

and now they'll know 
what it's like to be me
forced to live out of the light
in the dark just like a thief

parents

make me stay

daddy issues

southern nights
far from the city lights
I swear I've never seen 
stars so bright

the air lies heavy
between you and me
I've got to remind
myself to breath 

mmmhmm
mmmhmm

and down in the holler 
with the cool cool waters
where the whippoorwill's cry
rings through the trees

I remember a time 
much like to tonight
when you first revealed 
your love to me 

mmmhmm
mmmhmm

it's the fate of all things
to come to an end
the mouth of the river
the last breath of the wind

great love holds 
a great risk for sorrow
today we were one
two on the morrow

mmhmmm
mmhmmm

The Losing Side

I was just a boy looking for some afterschool cash
when I picked up a job at the IGA off Ash
I thought I knew what hard work was
But I never knew, how much customers suck

yes ma'am I sure can bag your groceries
right after I finish cleaning up a spill on aisle three
I know that you think you don't need to tip meeeeee
but as a minor I'm not even earning minimum wage

whoaa customers suck
whoaa customers suck
the customers always be right
on my left nut

and I wish I could say that was the worst of it
but have you ever had to clean a public toilet
brush in hand I went to do battle my foe
I wish yall would learn to shit into the bowl

yes I understand that when you got this can
you didn't see the dent on the side of it
but I begging you to realize that dent won't affect
the beans on the inside

whoaa customers suck
whoaa customers suck
the customers can always be right
on my left nut

now here's some rhymes about 
other things I didn't get paid enough to deal with 

shopping cart corral
the manager smokes black and milds
rotate the products on the shelf
the labels have got to face out
all the eggs go bad today
we've got sell them anyway

whoaa managers suck
whoaa managers suck
my left nut

At The IGA #IMF-Songwriting-Blitz

I'm leaving tomorrow
and there's nothing left say
the words that I find have a habit of
getting lost along the way

I'm taking my memories
and a couple of your things
I hoping the memories of happier times
outlast the sorrow they bring

and there have been times
where I wish I died
lost in the wake
of some rich man's war

it put me at ease
to know you'd be cared for
unlike most men, I know down to the cent
what my sorry life is worth

I'm leaving tomorrow
and that's just the way it goes
even though your not mine anymore
it still feels like leaving you

so I'll wear my mask
and I'll play my worn out part
a man who's too strong to let
anything tear me apart

there have been times
where I wish I died
so I could pretend, that in the end
I was something that I'm not

but it's not the departure
that sets my mood to black
it's the living I do, knowing each day
that you're never coming back
