This old guitar gave me my lovely lady
It opened up her eyes and ears to me
It brought us close together
And I guess it broke her heart
It opened up the space for us to be
What a lovely place and a lovely space to be.

Lovely lady, do you think that maybe I could be with you? Do you?
Lovely lady, I promise I'll be faithful to you my life through, I do
Lovely lady
There is only one girl in this world like you, that's true
Be my lady, you know I belong to you
Lovely lady, love me Lady my life through
Such a lovely lady
Such a lovely lady
Lovely Lady
You've made all my dreams come true, I love each day, each day
Tell me Lady, did you purposely intend I feel this way, please say?
Lovely Lady, got me wrapped around your finger on a string I sing
Hear me singing now
Be my lady, you know I belong to you
Lovely lady, love me lady my life through
Inspiration move me brightly / Light my heart with sense and color /
Hold away despair / More than this I will not ask / Faced with mysteries dark and vast.............

Never again, isn't that what you said?
You've been through this before
An' you swore this time you'd think with your head
No one, would ever have you again
And if taking was gonna get done
You'd decide where and when
Just when you think you got it down
Your heart securely tied and bound
They whisper, promises in the dark
Dodging lions and a-wasting time

Remember way back when
You had a yen
To mess over your old friend
You know, you dragged me to your heart
With your smile and grin
You'll never get a chance like that
To pull that old stuff again

You made me promises, promises
You knew you'd never keep
Promises, promises
Why do I believe
All of your promises
You knew you'd never keep
Promises, promises
Why do I believe?

If I listened long enough to you
I'd find a way to believe that it's all true
Knowing that you lied
Straight-faced while I cried
Still I look to find a reason to believe
Someone like you
Makes it hard to live without somebody else
Someone like you
Makes it easy to give
Never think about myself
If I gave you time to change my mind
I'd find a way just to leave the past behind
Knowing that you lied
Straight-faced while I cried
Still I look to find a reason to believe
If I listened long enough to you
I'd find a way to believe that it's all true
Knowing that you lied
Straight-faced while I cried
Still I look to find a reason to believe
Inspiration move me brightly / Light my heart with sense and color /
Hold away despair / More than this I will not ask / Faced with mysteries dark and vast.............

I started out on Burgundy, but soon hit the harder stuff
Everybody said they'd stand behind me when the game got rough
Yea, but the joke was on me, there was nobody even at my bluff
I'm going back to New York City, I do believe I've had enough

I'm so tired, I haven't slept a wink
I'm so tired, my mind is on the blink
I wonder should I get up and fix myself a drink
No, no, no
I'm so tired, I don't know what to do
I'm so tired, my mind is set on you
I wonder should I call you but I know what you would do
You'd say I'm putting you on
But it's no joke, it's doing me harm
You know I can't sleep, I can't stop my brain
You know it's three weeks, I'm going insane
You know I'd give you everything I've got
For a little peace of mind
Inspiration move me brightly / Light my heart with sense and color /
Hold away despair / More than this I will not ask / Faced with mysteries dark and vast.............

A man I know just came from Nashville Tennessee oh
He smiled because I did not understand
Then he held out some moonshine whiskey oh-ho
He said it was the best in all the land
And I said:
No no no no, I don't drink it no more
I'm tired of wakin' up on the floor
No, thank you, please,
It only makes me sneeze
And then it makes it hard to find the door

Well, my pad is very messy
And there's whiskers on my chin
And I'm all hung up on music
And I always play to win
I ain't got no time for lovin'
'Cause my time is all used up
Just to sit around creatin'
All that groovy kind of stuff
But I'm a man, yes I am
And I can't help
But love you so

I'm doing the best I can
Doing the best I can
I'm only a man, darling
My life has been empty
Since you went away
I feel so very, very lonely
I just drift from day to day
I'm doing the best I can
Trying to get over
Doing the best I can

Mother please forgive them
For they know not what they do
Looking back in history's books
It seems it's nothing new
Oh! Let my mother live
Heaven is for heroes
And hell is full of fools
Stupidity, no will to live
They're breaking God's own rules
Please let my mother live

Happy mother’s day
Happy mother’s day
I am your son
I am a runaway
Living on the east side
Always getting stoned
Always getting high 
I’m glad I’m not home

Oh, she's a little runaway
Daddy's girl learned fast

Run away child, running wild
Better come back home
Where you belong
Roaming through the city
Going nowhere fast
You're on your own at last
Hey, it's getting late, where will you sleep
Gettin' kinda hungry
You forgot to bring something to eat
Oh, lost with no money, you start to cry
But remember you left home
Wanting to be grown
So dry your weepin' eyes
Inspiration move me brightly / Light my heart with sense and color /
Hold away despair / More than this I will not ask / Faced with mysteries dark and vast.............

Got a wife and kids in Baltimore, Jack
I went out for a ride and I never went back
Like a river that don't know where it's flowing
I took a wrong turn and I just kept going
Everybody's got a hungry heart
Everybody's got a hungry heart
Lay down your money and you play your part
Everybody's got a h-h- hungry heart

Well, they took some honey from a tree
Dressed it up and they called it me
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby, now

I've been here all alone
When it comes to me and you, no spotlight on
'Cause you always think that you can do better
But will you call me when I'm famous?
When I'm famous
Would you call my name?
Will you call me when I'm famous?
When I'm famous
Will you call my name?
When I'm famous
What's a man gotta do to make you happy?
Is it all about the fortune and fame?
Would you care if they scream my name?
If they did I would still feel the same
I've been here all alone
When it comes to me and you, no spotlight on
Cause you always think that you can do better, better, better
But will you call me when I'm famous?
Inspiration move me brightly / Light my heart with sense and color /
Hold away despair / More than this I will not ask / Faced with mysteries dark and vast.............

Now deep in the heart of a lonely kid
Who suffered so much for what he did
They gave this ploughboy his fortune and fame
Since that day he ain't been the same
See the man with the stage fright
Just standin' up there to give it all his might
And he got caught in the spotlight
But when we get to the end
He wants to start all over again
Dodging lions and a-wasting time
In memory of ChiefScott
