MIRACLES

This Old Soul 

Capo on 1 

 

Verse 1  

(BfF1i) Most every man dreams of the day he meets his (FM) son  

My father before me, rest in peace, oh how he (Bf/F1i) loved  

In his pictures, in our blood, the joy I knew inside his (FM) eyes 

He only held you once, the second time I saw him (Gm11) cry 

  

Chorus 

My (Bfadd6add4) son, my little (BfM) man 

You need to know just how proud I am to be your (FM) dad 

My (Bfadd6add4) life, my pride and (BfM) joy (Efm) 

(BfMajor ) This old soul, (FM) alive in you, (EfM) you’ll always be my (BfM) boy   

 

Verse 2 

(B) I didn’t get the time and wasn’t (FM) brave enough to ask 

The stories never heard, to really get to know my (BbM) Dad 

So, I hope you understand that when I look you in the (F) eyes 

That I’m an open book, that when I’m gone, it’s not (B) goodbye. 

 

Chorus 

My son, my little man 

You need to know just how proud I am to be your dad 

My life, my pride and joy 

This old soul, alive in you, you’ll always be my boy   

 

Bridge 

(BfMajor..build into the bridge) 

(Eb Major) Carry on, be who you (BfMajor) are, and (FM) I’ll be there, wouldn’t miss a thing, (Eb Major) you’ll (BfMajor) always have my heart  

(Eb Major) Life is short and it can be (BfMajor) (Eb minor) hard,  

(BfMajor) I’ll do my best……(FM) To show the way…. 

(Eb Major) From your favorite toys and (BfMajor) baseballs games,….( Eb Major) To your first car and (BfMajor) broken (Eb minor) hearts 

(BfMajor)  And when the circle comes around (FM) again, just know I’ve loved you from the start (HEY!) 

 

SOLO 

 

Verse 3 

And I hope you’ll get to sing of the day I met your son 

Say, my father before me, rest in peace, oh how he loved  

In our pictures, in our blood, in the stories that we shared 

In your eyes, here by your side, in your heart, he’s always there. 

 

Chorus 

My son, my little man 

You need to know just how proud I am to be your dad 

My life, my pride and joy 

This old soul, alive in you, you’ll always be my boy   

You’ll always be my boy

This Old Soul

I gave you my <3 .... and then it fell apart :(

Give It up

A Smooth Sea Never Made A Good Sailor

This song is about realizing that the thing you were warned about your whole life — the thing that felt dangerous, forbidden, or “too much” — was actually who you were all along. It’s about a calling that shows up early, follows you through every stage of your life, and never lets go, no matter how much you try to quiet it. For me, it’s the moment when you stop asking permission, stop doubting the spark inside you, and finally accept that your power isn’t something you borrowed or learned — it’s something you were born carrying. This song lives in that calm, electric space between restraint and release, where you understand that the fire doesn’t need to explode to be real. It’s already there, humming under the surface, steady and unstoppable.


LYRICS:

[Verse 1]
I was barely tall enough to reach the dial
Static in the radio, lightning in my smile
They said, don’t touch the wires
You don’t know what you’ll become
But I felt the hum beneath my skin
Before I learned to run

[Pre-Chorus]
Every warning sounded holy
Every no just pulled me closer

[Chorus]
Oh the current
Oh the sound
Blessed are the ones who feel it
Rising when the lights go down
Call me reckless
Call me wrong
I don’t pray for resurrection
I was electric all along

[Verse 2]
I was twenty-one, westbound, engine crying out
Neon bleeding into dreams I couldn’t drown
They said, pick a safer silence
Learn to hold your tongue
But the storm was in my throat by then
And it wanted to be sung

[Pre-Chorus]
Every lock was only wrong
Every fear just fed the voltage

[Chorus]
Oh the current
Oh the sound
Blessed are the ones who feel it
Rising when the lights go down
Call me reckless
Call me wrong
I don’t pray for resurrection
I was electric all along

[Verse 3]
Don't tell me it's too much
Don't tell me to be still
You don't feel it in your bloodstream
But I always will

I tried to dim the lightning
I tried to speak in code
But the silence started screamin
It begged me to explode
Begged me to explode

[Bridge]
Now I’m rolling through your city
Sky split open, wires alive
If the lights go out behind me
You’ll know exactly why

[Final Chorus]
Oh the current
Oh the sound
If you feel it, don’t deny it
Let it take you underground
No forgiveness
No control
I don’t ask for absolution
I was power in a soul


Electric All Along

Love and War

A light hearted look at getting Older. Dedicated to my Mother who i am very quickly catching up on ...age wise :-)))) This is a new mix of a song i released earlier this year. 

Verse 1 
When I’m old and grey, will you love me still 
Will you still laugh at my jokes and the funny thing I say 
Will you hold my hand when we walk down the street 
Even when I’m stooped and bent and shuffling my feet 

Verse 2 
Will you still love me when I’m old and grey
When the threads that hold my life together get worn and start to fray 
When I can’t remember who you are or what I want to say 
Will you still love me when I reach that day 

Chorus 
If you can see beyond the years its still the same young me 
Ther one who said I’ll love for all eternity 
Until the end of time, I’ll be your will you be mine
Will you stay, when I’m old and grey 

Vers 3 
When I’m old and grey will you love me still 
If I Die in testate and don’t leave a will 
When I’ve passed away, will you love me still 
Will you be a sport and pay the funeral bill 

 Repeat Chorus 


Johnny Mc farlane

Will you love me still, when I'm old and Grey

 Original by Crosby, Stills & Nash 1977
