The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
I was always hoping for the best Lest prepping for the worst I went fishing for a prescription lens To block out all the hurt Working down and upstate Getting paint on all my favorite shirts All the while learning the harmonica I was crying more and less Laughing like my past was all the best Nevertheless I pressed on trying Trying for the moments in the silence When I'd know that peace and quiet Wasn't evil in disguises So I'd show up and leave soon and I'd increase my dose too Drinking coffee strong And everything else stronger I'd seem to lose my taste for sweets I'd seem to lose my faith in dreams All the while learning the harmonica It's funny how life it moves Accelerates and blurs the truth Left seeking in the bushes for my keys Laughing at the sights to see Resting when my mind's at ease And girding up when love feels all too real Well a blessed ride leaves love behind And holds it close and closer while it's here And if it's of any use to you I've always dealt a hand of truth Whether that's a straight or eight high I'll be singing When the winter comes And knows my name I trust the fine print of the game Will say don't bust And you can keep on playing Yeah I could ramble all my days And still that line is just as straight Pointing back to 1997 Yeah I could ramble all my days And still that line is just as straight Pointing back to 1997
