**Fading Frames**  
*Chords: G, C, Em, D*

#### **[Verse 1]**  
G            C  
I woke up today, don’t know the year,  
Em              D  
Familiar faces, but their names disappear.  
G                 C  
Time’s a thief that I can’t outrun,  
Em                   D  
Stealing my shadows, erasing the sun.  

#### **[Chorus]**  
G             C  
Fading frames in a broken mind,  
Em                  D  
Pieces of me scattered over time.  
G                    C  
I’m holding on, but it slips away,  
Em                    D  
Like whispers of dawn at the edge of day.  

#### **[Verse 2]**  
G                C  
There’s a woman who says she loves me still,  
Em              D  
But I don’t recall how I made her feel.  
G                    C  
I see her eyes, and I feel her pain,  
Em                    D  
But the moments we had don’t feel the same.  

#### **[Chorus]**  
G             C  
Fading frames in a broken mind,  
Em                  D  
Pieces of me scattered over time.  
G                    C  
I’m holding on, but it slips away,  
Em                    D  
Like whispers of dawn at the edge of day.  

#### **[Bridge]**  
C                G  
I hear a melody I used to play,  
D                       Em  
The chords are there, but the words decay.  
C                    G  
If I could go back, I’d freeze the clock,  
D                    Em  
But the hands keep turning, and I can’t make them stop.  

#### **[Chorus]**  
G             C  
Fading frames in a broken mind,  
Em                  D  
Pieces of me scattered over time.  
G                    C  
I’m holding on, but it slips away,  
Em                    D  
Like whispers of dawn at the edge of day.  

#### **[Outro]**  
G                 C  
So if I forget, don’t let me go,  
Em                   D  
Keep playing the song, let the memories show.  
G                     C  
In the echoes of life, I hope you’ll find,  
Em                       D  
A part of me lost, but still alive inside.

Fading Frames

(Verse 1)
Her bags are packed, her throat is sore
From screaming through the night
She's got nowhere to go
But she'll be alright

(Chorus)
She's country crazy
She can bait a hook with one hand
Bite open a beer can
Dance her ass off on the floor
She's country, she's crazy
But she'll be alright

(Verse 2)
She's got a heart full of gold
And a spirit wild and free
She ain't afraid to take on the world
And be who she wants to be

(Chorus)
She's country crazy
She can bait a hook with one hand
Bite open a beer can
Dance her ass off on the floor
She's country, she's crazy
But she'll be alright

(Bridge)
Sometimes life can knock you down
But she's got the strength to stand
She'll take it all in stride
And keep moving on her own land

(Chorus)
She's country crazy
She can bait a hook with one hand
Bite open a beer can
Dance her ass off on the floor
She's country, she's crazy
But she'll be alright

(Outro)
She's country, she's crazy
But she'll be alright

County crazy

v1: It's a 110° on the rail on an old IC line.
walking ties full of rusty spikes and past times.
just don't know where you're going but you know the reason why.
the railroad life will leave you hurting high and dry.

v2:working those 70-hour weeks for the price of pain.
keeping the freight flowing and rolling coal from the vein.
a man can keep this up for most of a little while.
but the reaper of time never comes with a smile.

                              " chorus "

rail man where is your family now?
the thought of dying alone hurt you somehow.
rail man you got that money to spend.
but you've lost your precious time again.
yeah you lost that precious time again.

v3:  most folks see the train as rolling by.
but the rail man knows how he's going to die.
most every night in a small hotel room.
knowing at 60 years old He'll die too soon.

                             " bridge"

rail man your family has up and gone away.
precious memories of reunions, weddings and little birthdays.
worn out hands and weak legs from stress a long hard days.
you'll be forgotten by everyone you ever knew.
rail man you'll go way too soon.


                             " repeat chorus"

The Rails (1).wav

Verse 1
We met when the sun was shining,
In a little town where time stands still,
You caught my eye, and before I knew it,
You had my heart, you always will.

Verse 2
We’ve watched the seasons change and fade,
But our love stayed strong and true,
Built a life in this old place,
With every day, I loved you anew.

Chorus
Side by side, we'll walk this road,
Hand in hand, as we grow old,
Through every tear and every fight,
We'll find our way back every night.
And when the day comes to say goodbye,
We’ll be side by side.

Verse 3
We’ve seen the world turn dark and gray,
But in your arms, I found my light,
Every laugh and every tear,
Made this love feel so right.

Verse 4
When the sun sets on our days,
And the stars begin to shine,
We’ll find peace in the earth’s embrace,
Resting close, your hand in mine.

Chorus
Side by side, we walked this road,
Hand in hand, we’ve grown so old,
Through every tear and every fight,
We found our way back every night.
Now in the ground where we lie,
We’re still side by side.


Side by side

Verse 1)
We rode together through thick and thin,
Through stormy nights and sunny winds.
But now you're gone, and I can't pretend,
That this pain will ever truly end.

(Chorus)
I hope they have Harleys in heaven,
Where you can ride on streets of gold.
With your lost brothers, you're not alone,
In that great beyond, where angels roam.

(Verse 2)
Memories flicker like flames in the dark,
Each moment shared, leaves its mark.
But time moves on, and so must I,
Though your absence still makes me cry.

(Chorus)
I hope they have Harleys in heaven,
Where you can ride on streets of gold.
With your lost brothers, you're not alone,
In that great beyond, where angels roam.

(Bridge)
I'll keep your spirit alive in my heart,
Every rev of the engine, every start.
And though you're gone, I'll carry on,
With your memory, forever strong.

(Chorus)
I hope they have Harleys in heaven,
Where you can ride on streets of gold.
With your lost brothers, you're not alone,
In that great beyond, where angels roam.

(Outro)
So farewell for now, my dear old friend,
Our journey together may have met its end.
But I'll keep riding, with you in my soul,
I hope they have Harleys in heaven, making you whole.

Harleys in Heaven

Locals


Verse 1 – 
Just outside of town, there’s a gravel lane
Back in our day, everybody knew its name
Led up to the house of a great old man
But for us, it was our own piece of land
Friday nights, we’d roll on through
Coolers in the back, not a thing to lose
We’d light a fire and the night would stay
On that lane where we learned our own way

Chorus – 
We never knew who might roll on in
But come the weekend, it was full again
We made new friends, some drifted away
But their voices still echo where we used to play
We thought it was just a party place
But it carved its mark we can’t erase
How I’d trade it all, come what may
For one more night, one more day
On the lane

Verse 2 – 
Nobody lives there anymore
Grass growing high where we danced on the floor
The house is gone, not a trace remains
Just an empty field and a gravel lane
Nothing left that could spark the view
But when I drive by, the memories come through
Like a movie in my mind I can’t put away
All the nights on the lane where we’d laugh and stay

Chorus – 
We never knew who might roll on in
But come the weekend, it was full again
We made new friends, some drifted away
But their voices still echo where we used to play
We thought it was just a party place
But it carved its mark we can’t erase
How I’d trade it all, come what may
For one more night, one more day
On the lane

Bridge – 
Now the weeds hide the tracks we made
But the gravel still remembers every tire and blade
And every time I pass, I hear the roar
Of the laughter and the music from those nights before

Final Chorus – 
Engines humming as the headlights glow
Some old Skynyrd on the radio
Laughing ‘til the night gave way to the dawn
Knowing right there’s where we belonged
We thought it was just a party place
But it carved its mark we can’t erase
How I’d give my years, come what may
For one more night, one more day
On the lane

Outro
Yeah, one more night, one more day…
On that lane.






The Lane

)

Verse 1 – 
Five gallons of gas between my knees
Pistons firing, wind cutting through the trees
Twelve volts of lead-acid just under my seat
Two wheels keeping me between the sky and the street
Logically, man, this should scare me to death
But I just roll on and take another breath

Chorus – 
’Cause the white line puts a calm over me
Like a hymn in the wind, like a wave on the sea
From the mountain switchbacks to the ocean coast
This saddle’s where I feel the most
No chains on my mind, no weight on my soul
Just the white line calm, and the throttle’s control

Verse 2 – 
No office clock, no phone to ring
Just the hum of the tires and the pipes that sing
Every mile’s a story, every curve’s a prayer
Every town’s a chapter, I’m just ridin’ there
Some folks think I’m chasin’ something I can’t find
Truth is, I’m leavin’ all the noise behind

Chorus – 
’Cause the white line puts a calm over me
Like a hymn in the wind, like a wave on the sea
From the mountain switchbacks to the ocean coast
This saddle’s where I feel the most
No chains on my mind, no weight on my soul
Just the white line calm, and the throttle’s control

Bridge – 
Yeah, I know the risks, I’ve heard the talk
One wrong move and it’s a long, hard walk
But there’s a peace I find when the motor hums
Like the world makes sense in the long run

Final Chorus – 
The white line puts a calm over me
Like the sun sinking low on a painted sea
From the Carolina hills to the Gulf shore sand
To the Redwood trails in the far west land
No chains on my mind, no weight on my soul
Just the white line calm… and the throttle’s control

Outro 
Yeah, the white line calm… that’s all I know.

This goes out to the short haired boy at the bar
You might be older but I was way more mature 
And 2 weeks later after you stopped picking up our calls
Ill realize that it wasn’t real love after all

(Chorus)
And just like fall my life will change
And All your feelings will rearrange
You disappear without a trace
Like you never knew my name

OoooooooooOooooooooooo
 
This goes out the night you kissed my friend 
After taking my heart and playing with it again
And now two weeks later after you stopped picking up the phone
Ill soon realize that i would be the one left all alone

(Chorus)
And just like fall my life will change
And all your feelings will rearrange
You disappear without a trace
Like you never knew my name

OoooooooooOooooooooooo

 (Bridge)
This goes out to the 2 years I wasted.
On the boy who I thought was oh so interested.

But the three red flags that were waving at me
When she sat on your lap while I got a drink
And now a new girlfriend that doesn’t know a thing
When you’re staring at your screen
Hoping for my name
Oh Darling what a shame 

OoooooooooOooooooooooo x2
