'Peace of Mind'
(Verse 1)
When the river’s singing,
Nothing else should be on your mind
Know your heart is beating, you’re breathing, you’re alive
No need for regrets,
For guilt or shame
Oh those waters will rush over you, wash it away
(Bridge)
Life can be a lonely road, if you make it
Oh your back can bear a heavy load, but you’re gonna break it
(Chorus 1)
Just look up and you’ll find, a little peace of mind
Maybe, it’s just a hand for you to hold
(Verse 2)
Where the mountains rise in the distance,
Where the Earth meets the sky,
You just may search and find there, the key to life
Where the wind dances by the ocean
And you feel the most alone
Bring me back to my soul and bare bones
(Bridge)
Life can be a lonely road, if you make it
Oh your back can bear a heavy load, but you’re gonna break it
(Chorus 2)
Just look up and you’ll find, a little peace of mind
Maybe, it’s just a hand for you to hold
Be gone, with the days end
Hopelessness, leave my friends (pause)
And let all our stories unfold
(Chorus repeats)
‘Your Girl’
(Verse 1)
When you wake up in the morning
I will help you start your day
Might have to head off to work soon,
But for now let’s just stay
Just put the coffee on,
And tell me that you love me
Hold me tight and don’t you let me go
(Chorus 1)
All my workin day dreams, could be played out right now
How you make me feel this way, I just don’t know how
(Verse 2)
There’s just one thing I want,
To make me feel alright,
A little bit of your lovin darlin & I’ll sleep soundly through the night
There are no riches greater,
No gold that shines
Like the way my heart would if you were mine
(Chorus 2)
I’d do without the money, without all the gold(whiskey) in the world
If you would just let me be your girl
(Verse 3)
Now if I catch a stroke of bad luck,
If the tables do turn
I know our loves embers will still burn
And if troubles do befall me
I’ve got a warm place next to you
You’re the kind of man who can always take away these blues
Oh yes baby, you take away my blues
And I don’t know what I’d do without you
'Cryptic Blues'
(Verse 1)
Hear the river running strong, no water just filth and blood
Waking up to the sounds of traffic, thick in your mind like mud
Gears are grindin, going strong, speedin’ up the times
Don’t get caught up in the busy part, of your absent mind
(Chorus)
Here I am, standing right beside you babe,
In this world we all leave someday
In this body that’s slowly falling apart
Don’t let me let it go to waste
(Verse 2)
Drivin round the end of that whiskey bend
Ridin on the edge of insane
Lockin me up in this prison, when I didn’t do a doggone thing
Vultures flyin low today, circlin my head
Callin out my name, are they wishin me dead?
(Chorus)
Here I am, standing right beside you babe,
In this world we all leave someday
In this body that’s slowly falling apart
Don’t let me let it go to waste
'Wishing Well'
(Verse 1)
Ain’t got no agenda, got no reason why,
But runnin out that door makes me feel so alive
The winds are howlin’ blues about the road behind
Take me down the Mississippi when the river is high
And I’m gonna buy myself a fishin pole and fish for good luck
Like they say if I miss, might hook a star from above
And I never had no money, not sure I ever will
But my life’s as rich as if I owned a wishin well
(Chorus)
Cuz there’s a fire in your eyes
And it’s burnin up in me
Just a bird in a cage that’s been opened
A soul thats been set free
(Verse 2)
Wide western skies and hope on the horizon
A need for freedom riddled deep in my bones
I ain’t runnin away from a good thing
My home is with me wherever I go
And I’m gonna buy myself a shotgun and keep it at my side
Takin out my enemies, one at a time
Catch the next freight train outta this here town
Cuz there’s a gold rush out west and I’m railway bound
(Chorus repeats)
