LYRICS
Another sleepless night, fears grip consumes me
Wondering if you’re safe tonight
Are you still here, I wish that I could see
Knowing that we’ll reunite

Bad things have come your way, I know that’s true
I’m sorry that’s a bridge you’ve had to cross
But don’t go blaming life itself
You won’t find solace, you’ll just stay lost

Don’t ever give up, don’t ever concede 
You can beat this, then you’ll be freed

I’ve watched you rise, I’ve watched you fall
Here from the start to see it all
You mean the world to me, this much is true

I know how much you care for me
I’m counting on you to see it through

I’ve tried so hard to hold on, lived my life around you
Praying that I see you make it through
I’ll give all that I’ve got, I’ll never give in
One thing you know is always true

I’ll always be here, I will not concede
I’ll be here to help you stop your bleed

I’ve watched you rise, I’ve watched you fall
Here from the start to see it all
You mean the world to me, this much is true

I know how much you care for me
I’m counting on you, you gotta make it through

It’s time to leave the past behind
Set yourself free from those chains 

I’m praying for some rest tonight, knowing that you’re safe
I need to know that you didn’t fall
A night where I know I’ll see you again
Please don’t ever let me get “that” call

I’ve watched you rise, I’ve watched you fall
Here from the start to see it all
You mean the world to me, this much is true

I know how much you care for me
I’m counting on you, you gotta make it through

Make It Through (original acoustic demo, Easton)

For many years I have wanted to see the beauty of the Celtic Highlands. I imagine it would be wonderful. I have been inspired by the previous track ("Ginger Angel") by my friend David Dunham, in which I was able to play.
I know that David has a similar wish and he loves celtic music. Since I have come to appreciate him very much in the past, I would like to dedicate this song to him. This song is for you and "Keep Celtic", David. And please forgive my poor guitar playing. 😉 

I invite you to explore the Highlands in your mind with this track to my music.
I wish you a pleasant journey.

Redemption (Chris mix, lukky+acoustic)

Thanks for stopping by.  My name is Chris Chafin and I'm a part-time musician based out of Nashville TN.  I've written/produced all of my posted songs over the last couple of years.  My musical contributions to the songs consist of most of the electric/acoustic guitars and about half of the bass tracks.  Several very good friends have contributed their incredible musical talent and I've relied heavily on other immensely talented musicians around the globe.  Without all of these folks my songs would be nothing but words in my head so to all of those that have contributed, thank you from the bottom of my heart.  But most of all I thank God for all of the blessings in my life, especially the love and patience of my family.

Please give a listen to my music, hopefully something here will resonate and bring enjoyment to you.  The record "Fractured Hearts" is a new folk/americana/country record that I'm in the process of creating and hope to release in 2024.  The album "Music Like Before" is an 80's style rock-based record that I released in 2023.  Lyrics and credits for each song are available by clicking on and viewing the individual tracks.
