This is the one I'm working on.


Hold me high

I can feel the pain in your voice

Like nothing else I’ve heard before


It’s a lesson learned

Not to play with fire

For everything else I guess you’re a lier



And I’m so ashamed of that gift you gave me

Like nothing else I had before

G C D Am7
Sitting here on my front porch looking out
G C D Am7
Into the woods across the street
G C D Am7
I want to know all about this place
G C D Am7
But can't quite find all the secrets
Play:G C D Am7 twice

G C D Am7
It's almost like finding out every fact of life
G C D Am7
While reading every book in your language
Play:G C D Am7 twice

G C D Am7
Everyone claims they know a lot but they don't know nothing
G C D Am7
They wouldn't even be able to navigate on the back of there hand
G C D Am7
I know I've been there and done that
G C D Am7
But I'm not looking back
Play:G C D Am7 twice

G C D Am7
It's almost like finding out every fact of life
G C D Am7
While reading every book in your language
Play:G C D Am7 twice
Then chorus one more time.


Record it and post it I want to hear everyone's twist on this great country tune.

I’m to happy to get away

That knife in my back has to stay

Radioactive waste is made from hay



I’m a nightmare

I’m not crazy

Or delusional



Find someone that has to stay

I might be happy to here you say

Finally we got a day



I’m a nightmare

I’m not crazy

Or delusional



I would like to tell you

You should come with me

He ran to Canada to play



I’m a nightmare

I’m not crazy
Or delusional

Just to let you know, that exact line is used in a song called "The Gift" by Seether.
You go outside and practice screaming. We'll play music while you're gone.

So that's what you call good song writing? Using lines from other bands that you think sound good? That's actually called plagiarism.

No its not for plagirism I would need to copy the whole song trust me I've heard songs that have more than just one line in common. Take Hearts are gold by Looking For You (A Local Band) they use firewater lake for their chorus and they use a line that says Ocean Avenue in it. Cus its just what sounds good. Anyway I changed it I think it sounds clechae.
