Beau James - New Chord

I wish that I knew a new chord for you because nothing will do if I'm trying to write a song about you. So I stick to the C because it sounds close to me to what I hear when I see you dancing through my dreams and even though I’m miles away I still think about you every day. Even though I’m miles and miles away I hold out hope I'll be holding you someday. 

So I'll keep on writing stupid love songs until the day you fall in love with me, and I'll keep on tugging at these heartstrings until they find the words that bring you here to me because then we’d finally see what we could be. 

Do you think of me too lying close to you and when you look to the moon do you hear me singing a familiar tune? Because even though I’m miles away, still see your face almost every day, and even though I’m miles and miles away I hold out hope I'll be holding you someday. 

So I'll keep on writing stupid love songs until the day you fall in love with me and I'll keep on tugging at these heartstrings until they find the words that bring you here to me because then we’ld finally see, oh because then we, we’d finally see, oh what we could be. 

But I wish that I knew a new chord for you because nothing will do if I’m trying to write a song about you.

Beau James - She Stayed Home

Cardboard boxes all around packed with dreams of leaving town, the only thing that's left to go is me. In the morning I'll be gone, the trucks she’s leavin’ at the break it down a one-way trip down to Tennessee.

But the love of mine, this love of mine, this love of mine she stayed home. Home.

And though she begged me not to go there was too many things there I couldn't let go, unless I had time to do some exploring on my own.

But the love of mine this love of mine this love of mine she stayed home.

And she found love and she found faith well I found love by getting wasted every time that she came to my mind because she stayed home. Home. Home. Home.

But the love of mine this love of mine the level of mine she stayed home. Home.

Beau James - Cowboy Boots

Pulling on these Cowboy boots
They're faded black and the heels are wearing away.
Because they're the final piece of my facade that helps me hide my human heart away from what people might say. 
Cause words you say to a troubled man, 
You never know how they're effecting him and it might just send that man into despair that's why I wear

These two cowboy boots broken in with age they help me step up on any stage ‘cause they have got a thicker skin than I. Judgment's got itself a wicked side but poisonous words they just can't bite through these cowboy boots I wear on my two feet. That's why these cowboy boots go everywhere with me. 

Walking down this dusty road of places I've been and places I want to go. I wear these boots every step of the way
They've ruined my shins but their still protecting me from what they say like
That boys got his hand caught in a trap, he touches a bottle he don’t look back and he's gonna end up drinking his talent away
That's why I save

These two cowboy boots broken in with age they help me step up on any stage ‘cause they have got a thicker skin than I. Judgment's got itself a wicked side but poisonous words they just can't bite through these cowboy boots I wear on my two feet. That's why these cowboy boots go everywhere with me. That’s why these cowboy boots I wear on my two feet, That’s why these cowboy boots go everywhere with me.

Beau James - Lost & Found 

If I had fortune if I had fame if all my dreams came true I'd never be the same because I'd be lost the moment that I'm found yeah I’d be lost the moment that I'm found.

Because I love the silence of being plain if I was popular I think I'd go insane because I'd be lost the moment that I'm found yeah I'd be lost the moment that I'm found.

I guess the funny thing about chasing fame is the one thing I never want to change are the sleepless nights I'd take a drive through the dark, just wishing I could reach the sky and be a star. But if my dreams came true I'd have nothing left to do, nothing else worth fighting for, only more to lose if I'm found. 

I want to woman who loves my soul, if I had all that money I guess I'd never know because I'd be lost the moment that I'm found yeah I'd be lost the moment that I'm found. 

I see the family, I see the home, I just can't see all the moments missed out on the road because they be lost the moment that I'm found, they'd all be lost the moment that I'm found. 

I guess the funny thing about chasing fame is the one thing I never want to change are the sleepless nights I'd take a drive through the dark just wishing I could reach the sky and be a star but if my dreams came true I'd have nothing left to do, nothing else worth fighting for only more to lose if I'm found. 

Yeah if my dreams came true I'd have nothing left to do nothing else worth fighting for only more to lose if I'm found.

Altadore - Sleep, Spun

You’re not missing out on anything
Nothing at all
You left me dancing without anyone
To sleepy records you spun

Why did you leave so much pain?
Why are you more, so much more than a name?
Why did you leave so much pain?
Are you lonely?

I’m not missing you much anymore
Not like before
For me it’s been harder to believe
This ever happened at all

Why did you leave so much pain?
Why are you more, so much more than a name?
Why did you leave so much pain?
Are you lonely?

Why am I lonely?

Altadore - If Only For You

I was looking through the fog of an early morning trying to keep you
Holding you flowers to last, I was cast in a feeling trying to hold you
But you were an ocean, love, I couldn’t hold you

But I didn’t lose it, I kept it together, if only for you
I’m stuck on the freeway, I’m dust in the doorway, if only for you
I’m hung on a heartache, I’m mad at the mistakes, if only for you
But I didn’t know that I would lose you so soon

I was looking for the light in a midnight hurry trying to keep you
Holding your towers of glass, I was cracks in the ceiling trying to hold you
But you were an ocean, love, I couldn’t hold you

But I didn’t lose it, I kept it together, if only for you
I’m stuck on the freeway, I’m dust in the doorway, if only for you
I’m hung on a heartache, I’m mad at the mistakes, if only for you
But I didn’t know that I would lose you so soon

It only took a trip to the coast
To have a week alone at most
But I didn’t figure it out
I didn’t overcome what I’ve been thinking about
I’m in love with someone who doesn’t want me around

But I didn’t lose it, I kept it together, if only for you
I’m stuck on the freeway, I’m dust in the doorway, if only for you
I’m hung on a heartache, I’m mad at the mistakes, if only for you
But I didn’t know that I would lose you so soon

The Hill and Wood - The Choices I've Made

Hey do you think we could carry each other
It doesn't seem like it's too heavy a load
But I'm scared of the weight not making us stronger
I'm scared it's a weight we won't want when we're old

I know when the water is deep that one has to dive
I know your eyes are enough for me to forget I'm alive

But I've come to a pass and it's raining down knives
And I'm looking for one that will serve me what's true
So I take one in hand and hope I stay alive
And hope it's not one that will cut me in two 

My arms are warm with the blood of the choices I've made
The more I bleed the less that I am afraid

It's not fair to say that I'm thinking out loud
My heart has arrested my mind and my pride
And it's not fair to you if I stay up on a cloud
It's time I come down to get out what's inside

I'll tell you once. I'll tell you once again
It won't be enough for us to settle as friends

I come here today with a load on my back
It's not one I'll ask you to shoulder yourself
It's one that I need to throw down on the tracks
That lead to the caverns of a fiery hell

It's truer to say that I've never made a choice
Each decision I make has to be done in a soft tone of voice

So hey, one day I hope you will know
If I felt free to do so I would take your hand
And that the winds of time which steadily blow
Will uncover the secrets that hide in the sand

I think it's now time for me to go
Before I draw this knife into you 
I won't do it fast, but I can't do it slow
I hope it's the hardest thing I'll ever do


When You Go

The Hill and Wood - Crocodile

Oh, dear brother, love you like no other
Writing you a letter that you will ignore
Cancellations to every invitation 
Sending a soft answer with a harder core

You’re staring at me like I’m a 10-foot crocodile
Oh, don’t be dismayed. It’s only a smile.

Sister forgive me. I prefer to living
Working after hours without an empty hand
You’re known for serving way beyond deserving
Giving me a chair when I have legs to stand

The less that people know, the farther you will go
I live by these words. It seems to have worked.

Fundamental decisions
Explain the way you’re living

The Hill and Wood - Kindred

Where’d you get your middle name? From your mother’s side?
Do you think it’d be the same if you were given a say?
Do you ever think what it’d be if you could decide?
Would you change? Do you think you’d change it?

Are you honestly surprised you got invited?
Do you think that they would have it any other way?
Has it ever crossed your mind
It doesn’t have anything to do with you?

Oh why, oh why do you deny your kindred?
It’s much too much for you to throw away
Will you ever know what it means to be someone
If you can’t see the ones from whom you came?

Your father’s son. It is enough. 
You can’t outrun. It is enough.

The Hill and Wood - No Surprise

It’s no surprise that you’re having doubts
I’ve been standing by just waiting it out
Can you tell me what will become
When this all circles back around?
A sorcerer’s world is full of too much choice.

You’re tired of words. They don’t mean enough.
You say that don’t capture what you’re thinking of.
And you’re tired of your crippled friends for being too damn tired from walking.
You’re starting again, but it won’t be that long…

Can you tell me what will become
When this all circles back around?
A sorcerer’s world is full of too much choice.
And you’re tired of your crippled friends for being too damn tired from walking.
You’re starting again, but it won’t be that long…

A Robin Built A Nest On Daddy's Grave

Springtime is coming in the mountains
However, on the hill where daddy lay
All the song birds are singing 
And a robin built a nest on daddy’s grave

I planted dad a rose some time ago
Oh, the rose how it did grow
Springtime is coming I’m glad to say 
And a robin built a nest on daddy’s grave

Oh, the rose bloomed so red 
And spread its beauty for that day
Then a robin came one day 
And there she built a nest on daddy’s grave

Oh, the rose how it bloomed 
I believe the Lord is coming soon
That’s what the rose it seem to say 
And a robin built a nest on daddy’s grave

Song by Edna Sykes
