Who did you think I was

I got half a smile and zero shame
I got a reflection with a different name
Got a brand new blues I can't explain
Who did you think I was

Every mornin when the day begins
I make up my mind but change it back again
I'm a shifter of the shape I'm in
Who did you think I was

You got my number but I always knew the score
Who did you think I was

Am I the one who plays the quiet songs
Is He the one who turns the ladies on
Will I keep shinin til my light is gone
Who did you think I was

You got my number but I always knew the score
Who did you think I was

Here is a line that you won't understand
I'm half of the boy but twice the man
Carry the weight of the world in the palm of my hand
Who did you think I was

. . .



I'm a lazy lover
Undercover
Wasting time
Then one day this summer
I changed my number
To cut my line

Good love is on the way
I been lonely but I know I'll be ok
Good love is on the way

3 years broken hearted
But now her ghost is finally gone
I'm done with broken people
This is me
I'm workin on

Good love is on the way
I've been lonely but I know I'll be ok
Good love is on the way

Good to go for wherever I'm needed
Bags are packed and they're
Down by the door
You can take all the tricks up my sleeve
I don't need them any more
Good love is on the way
Good love is on the way
I've been lonely but I know ill be ok

. . .



Well, I'm standing here, freezing, inside your golden garden
Uh got my ladder, leaned up against your wall
Tonight's the night we planned to run away together
Come on dolly mae, there's no time to stall
But now you're telling me...

I think we better wait till tomorrow
I think we better wait till tomorrow
I think we better wait till tomorrow
Got to make sure it's right, so until tomorrow, goodnight.

Oh, dolly mae, how can you hang me up this way ?
Oh, on the phone you said you wanted to run off with me today
Now I'm standing here like some turned down serenading fool
Hearing strange words stutter from the mixed mind of you
And you keep tellin' me that ah...

I think we better wait till tomorrow
I think we better wait till tomorrow
No, can't wait that long
I think we better wait till tomorrow
Got to make sure it's right, until tomorrow, goodnight, oh.
Let's see if I can talk to this girl a little bit here...

Ow ! dolly mae, girl, you must be insane
So unsure of yourself leaning from your unsure window pane
Do I see a silhouette of somebody pointing something from a tree ?
Click bang, what a hang, your daddy just shot poor me
And I hear you say, as I fade away...

We don't have to wait till tomorrow
We don't have to wait till tomorrow
We don't have to wait till tomorrow

. . .



Gravity, is working against me
And Gravity, wants to bring me down
Oh, Ive never known what makes this man
With all the love that this heart can stand
Dream of ways to throw it all away

Whoa, Gravity is working against me
And Gravity, it wants to bring me down
Oh, twice as much aint twice as good
And cant sustain like one half could
Its wanting more that's gonna set me to my knees

Guitar solo

Twice as much aint twice as good
And cant sustain like one half could
Its wanting more that's gonna set me to my knees

Whoa Gravity, stay the hell away from me
And Gravity, has taken better man than me
Now how can that be
Just keep me where the light is
Just keep me where the light is
Just keep me where the light is

. . .



Some of us, We're hardly ever here
The rest of us, we're born to disappear
How do I stop myself from
Being just a number
How do I hold my head
To keep from going under

Down to the wire
I wanted water but
I'll walk through the fire
If this is what it takes
To take me even higher
Then I'll come through
Like I do
When the world keeps
Testing me, testing me, testing me

How did they find me here
What do they want from me
All of these vultures hanging
Right outside my door
I hear them whisperin
They're tryin to ride it out
They've never gone this long
Without a kill before

Down to the wire
I wanted water but
I'll walk through the fire
If this is what it takes
To take me even higher
Then I'll come through
Like I do
When the world keeps
Testing me, testing me, testing me

(solo)
Wheels up
I got to leave this evening
Can't seem to keep these vultures
Out of my tree(sometimes he says trail)
Powers is made, by power being taken
I keep on running
To protect(sometimes he says control) my situation

Down to the wire
I wanted water but
I'll walk through the fire
If this is what it takes
To take me even higher
Then I'll come through
Like I do
When the world keeps
Testing me, testing me, testing

Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo
Oooooooooooo
Whatcha gonna do about it
Whatcha gonna do about it

. . .


(a.k.a. 'E Blues')

I'm putting you
I'm putting you out of my mind
I'm putting you
I'm putting you right out of my mind
I'm so tired of running after you
One-and-one-half steps behind

Go tell your friends
Go tell your friends what Johnny did
Yeah, go tell your friends
Go tell your friends what Johnny did
If they don't laugh right at you
They just as fucked (sometimes he says messed) up as you is

(Solo)
If I don't see you tomorrow
See you another day, I'm sure
If I don't see you tomorrow
See you another day, I'm sure
I'll run into you at your job
You be waiting for me outside the stage door

I'm putting you
I'm putting you right out of my mind
I'm putting you, baby
I'll put you right out of my mind
So tired of chasing after you

. . .



Sara's friend she lost her mind
Left him and made it look sexy
You fear I won't be far behind
Thinking I'll be the next to leave
I know I might be anxious
But I'm still not crazy

And I don't need another kind of green to know I'm on the right side I'm on the
right side with you

I used to be the one saw
Crying alone to sad songs
But then we go and hit the wall
When nothings changed, nothing's wrong
It's not the perfect hand
But I dont hit on nineteen

And I don't need another kind of green to know
I'm on the right side
I'm on the right side with you
Someday you'll drift away from me
Adopt some new philosophy
That doesn't keep the two of us in mind
Move into someone else's place
And stare in truth in other's eyes
And slowly only come to realize

That you didn't need another kind of green to know
I'm on the right
Mine was the right side

. . .



I got a woman way over town that's good to me oh yeah
Say I got a woman way over town good to me oh yeah
She give me money when I'm in need
Yeah she's a kind of friend indeed
I got a woman way over town that's good to me oh yeah

She saves her lovin early in the morning just for me oh yeah
She saves her lovin early in the morning just for me oh yeah
She saves her lovin just for me oh she love me so tenderly
I got a woman way over town that's good to me oh yeah

She's there to love me both day and night
Never grumbles or fusses always treats me right
Never runnin in the streets and leavin me alone
She knows a womans place is right there now in her home

I got a woman way over town that's good to me oh yeah
Say I got a woman way over town that's good to me oh yeah
She give me money when I'm in need
Yeah she's a kind of friend indeed

. . .



I'm not alone, I wish I was
'cause than I'd know, I'm down because…
I couldn't find, a friend around
to love me like, they do right now
they do right now…..

And all is well, I can't complain
well okay, I guess I could
I got my place, I got my name
I chase my tail, all the same

and I cant think about what's keepin' me down
Something's missing,
and I don't know how to fix it
Something's missing,
and I don't know what it is, no I don't know what it is
I don't know….

And it all comes, it doesn't last
It just walks in, with a bad you lash
And you never know, when it starts
until this fog inside the glass around your summer heart

Can't put my finger on what's keeping me down
Something's missing,
and I don't know how to fix it
Something's missing
and I don't know what it is, no I don't know what it is

I can't be sure that this state of mine, is not of my own desire
I wish there was an over the counter test, for loneliness, for loneliness
like this

Something's missing,
and I don't know how to fix it
Something's missing,
and I don't know what it is, no I don't know what it is

Friends check, Money check
good times check, guitar check
all check, all of you, check
everyone, check
havin' fun

I know a girl.
She puts the color inside of my world.
She's just like a maze,
Where all of the walls all continually change.

I've done all I can
To stand on the steps with my heart in my hand,
But I'm starting to think
Maybe it's got nothing to do with me.

Fathers be good to your daughters;
Daughters will love like you do, yeah.
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers,
So mothers be good to your daughters, too.

Oh, you see that skin;
It's the same she's been standing in
Since the day you two met.
I bet I was on your mind
Never never anytime.

Fathers be good to your daughters;
Daughters will love like you do, yeah.
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers,
So mothers be good to your daughters, too.

Boys you can break,
You find out how much they can take.
Boys will be strong, and boys soldier on,
But boys would be gone without warmth
From a woman's good, good heart

On behalf of every man, looking out for every girl,
You are the god, and the weight of her world.
On behalf of every man whose looking out for every girl,
You are the god, and the weight of her world.

Fathers be good to your daughters,
Daughters will love like you do, yeah.
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers,
So mothers be good to your daughters, too.

Try
Takes four days to get to like me
But two to wanna leave
But the part that really gets me
Is the moments in between
I lie to get a little
And laugh at every little thing
She's high on information
Now I'm low on self-esteem
I'm gonna try, try
Gonna try
Try to be myself
Although myself I wonder why
I'm gonna try, try
Gonna try
Try to be myself this time

I'm a hundred kinds of crazy
But I only wanna find
One sweet little angel
Who's gonna let me speak my mind
All I ever do these days
Is knock my process down
She's making her decision
Now I'm losing all of my ground

I'm gonna try, try
Gonna try
Try to be myself
Although myself I wonder why
I'm gonna try, try
Gonna try
Try to be myself
I wanna try to be myself this time

Easy does it now
Keep your damn mouth shut
She thinks I hot already
Don't go and press your luck
No news is good news coming
You gotta wait to find
You know you're gonna blow it
Every single time

I'm gonna try, try
Gonna try
Try to be myself
Although myself I wonder why
I'm gonna try, try
Gonna try
Try to be myself
