Chances Are

Chances Are



I was lost inside a daydream
Swimming through the saline
I looked at you and you breathed in
Well, that's the way it's always been

It all comes down to creating time
You don't always have to make it right
We'll all drive by in our hybrid lives
Chances are we'll make it back

I was doing time in the LA jail
My Karma was living inside a failure
No matter how it don't matter now
Rest assured the rest is blurred

It all comes down to doing time
We don't always have to make it a crime
We'll all drive off in our hybrid lives
Chances are we'll make it back
We'll make it back... We'll make it back

Terror runs for king I said
It is better to explore within
We were apes before we spoke of sin
The cosmos sits on the tip of a pin

It all comes down to creating time
You don't always have to make it alright
We'll all drive by with our hybrid lives
Chances are... Chances are... Chances are
We'll make it back... We'll make it back
We'll make it back... We'll make it back

Crash And Burn

Crash And Burn




I waved goodbye to all my friends
I packed my car and headed to LA
I gave away all my loose ends

Somebody said you gotta get away
To wanna go back home again
I left my universe standing there
Holding the hand of my best friend

And it's laughter that I feel when I think of you
It's one more dusty rose about to turn
I'll see you when I reach New Mexico
If I'm in the mood to crash and burn

I wrote a letter that I never mailed
I rehearsed a dialogue in my head
In case you ever wanted to track me down
I'll take my cell phone to bed

And it's laughter that I hear when I close my eyes
And it's one more punchline I forgot to learn
I call you up when my bottle's dry
I'm on my way to crash and burn

Antigone laid across the road
And let a mack truck leave her there for dead
Just because her lover split the scene
Well love might be great but why lose your head

Well, it's laughter that comes up when I cry for you
And my heart may break again before it learns
And I might be stupid enough to want to fall again
Cause I've gotten use to the crash and burn
I say I've gotten use to the crash and burn

Crash and burn
Crash Crash
Crash and burn
Sheryl Crow Crash And Burn

Diamond Ring

Diamond Ring



We made love all day
In our little hideaway
But I blew up our love nest
By making one little request

Diamond ring, diamond ring
Don't mean anything
Diamond ring, diamond ring
Should not mean a thing

You could say I do
Hide your negative reviews
You love me you say
But you can't even face the day, oh

Diamond ring, diamond ring
Don't mean anything
Diamond ring, diamond ring
Should not change

Some say love is oh so blind
But I say love is only in the mind
Diamonds may be oh so sweet
But to me they just bring on cold feet

Someday you'll be like me
With someone who just wants to be free

Diamond ring, diamond ring
F**ks up everything
Diamond ring, diamond ring
Should not mean a thing

Diamond Road

Diamond Road




Tell me every story told
Give me something of your soul
That I can hold onto
I want to wake up to the sound of waves
Crashing on a brand new day
Keep the memory of your face
But wipe the pain away o

[CHORUS:]
When you're lonely (you're not alone)
When you're heart aches (on Diamond Road)
It's gonna take a little time
Yeah, it's gonna take a little time
When the night falls (you're not alone)
When you're stumbling (on Diamond Road)
It's gonna take a little time
To make it to the other side o
So don't miss the diamonds along the way

Every road has led us here today
Little bird, what's troubling you
You know what you have to do
What is yours you'll never lose
And what's ahead may shine
Beneath the promise of blue skies
With broken wings we'll learn to fly
Pull yourself out of the tide
And begin the dream again

[CHORUS]

So don't miss the diamonds along the way
Every road has led us here today
Won't you shine on
Morning light
Burn the darkness away
Walk with me the Diamond Road
Tell me everything is gold
Give me something of your soul
So you don't fade away

[CHORUS]

Don't miss the diamonds along the way
Every road has led us here today
Life is what happens while you're making plans
All that you need is right here in your hands.

Doctor My Eyes

Doctor My Eyes



Oooh....

Doctor, my eyes have seen the years
And the slow parade of tears
Without crying
Now i want to understand...

I have done all that I could
To see the evil and the good
Without hiding
You must help me, if you can...

Doctor my eyes...
Tell me what is wrong
Was I unwise...
To leave them open for so long

Cause I have wondered through this world
And as each moment has infurred
I've been waiting
To awaken, from these dreams...

People go just where they will
I never noticed them until
I got the feeling-
That it's later, than it seems...

Doctor my eyes...
Tell me what they see
I hear their cries...
Just say if it's too late for me

[music break]

Doctor my eyes...
Tell me what you see
I hear their cries...
Just say if it's too late for me

Doctor my eyes...
Cannot see the sky
Is this the price...
For having learned how not to cry..y.

Oooh...
Won't you help me understand
Oooh...
I wanna understand
Oooh...
I wanna understand
Oooh...
Oh, doctor, doctor help me, oh
Oooh...
I can hear the people crying
Oooh...
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oooh...
Help me understand
Oooh...
Help me understand
Oooh...

Drunk With The Thought Of You

Drunk With The Thought Of You



There's something I need to show you
My head in my hands
'Cause I don't understand
When I don't even know you,
How you melted my heart in two

I wake up in the morning,
Follow you and then hide
Just to watch you walk by
Comes on me with no warning
I think about you and I get high

To assure you I even exist
Do I tell you it's you that I've missed?
Well if love is a cocktail of all that you do,
I get drunk with the thought of you
I get drunk with the thought of you

I can't stand all this freedom
I've been there before
And it's such a good bore
You're all I ever needed
If you'd only walk through my door

To assure you I even exist
Do I tell you it's you that I've missed?
Well if love is a cocktail of all that you do,
I get drunk with the thought of you
I get drunk with the thought of you

I could wait my whole life for this moment to come
With a long list of beautiful chances I've blown
Well if love is a cocktail of all that you do,
I get drunk with the thought of you
I get drunk with the thought of you
I get drunk with the thought of you

Every Day Is A Winding Road

Every Day Is A Winding Road



He says he's been down this road more than twice
He was high on intellectualism
I've never been there but the brochure looks nice
Jump in, let's go
Lay back, enjoy the show
Everybody gets high, everybody gets low,
These are the days when anything goes

[Chorus]
Everyday is a winding road
I get a little bit closer
Everyday is a faded sign
I get a little bit closer to feeling fine

He's got a daughter he calls Easter
She was born on a Tuesday night
I'm just wondering why I feel so all alone
Why I'm a stranger in my own life
Jump in, let's go
Lay back, enjoy the show
Everybody gets high, everybody gets low
These are the days when anything goes

[Chorus]

I've been living in a sea of anarchy
I've been living on coffee and nicotine
I've been wondering if all the thing I've seen
Were ever real, were ever really happening

Gasoline

Gasoline



Way back in the year of 2017
The sun was growing hotter
And oil was way beyond its peak
When crazy Hector Johnson broke into a refinery
And the black gold started flowing
Just like Boston tea

It was the summer of the riots
And London sat in sweltering heat
And the gangs of Mini Coopers
Took the battle to the streets
But when the creed was handed down
For no more trucks and no more cars
They threw cans of petrol through the windows at Scotland Yard

Gasoline
Will be free, will be free
Gasoline
Will be free, will be free

When the Mounties stormed the palace of the Saudi family
They held them up for ransom
Without disturbing their high tea
But their getaway was shaky
They stalled in the Riyadh streets
Cause you can't make it very far
When your tank is on empty

The final can of gasoline was loaded on a truck
And driven through the streets of Agra to the palace aquaduct
You see, all the majesty of worship that once adorned these fatal halls
Was just a target to the angry
As they blew up the Taj Mahal

Gasoline
Will be free, will be free
Gasoline
will be free, will be free

Gary ran a market way down in Tennessee
Where all the farmers got together and talked about this great country
But when the government turned its back on farming
Man, what I hear
They dragged the pumps out of the ground
With a big vintage John Deere

I've got soldiers on my payroll
Standing guard on my front drive
Snipers on the roof poised at those
Who don't want me alive
Cause they audited my taxes
My family under threat
Cause I've got a message and a megaphone
And I'll scream it to the death

Gasoline
Will be free, will be free
Gasoline
Will be free, will be free

You got the farms in Argentina
Making fuel from sugar cane
You got the bastards in Washington
Afraid of popping the greed vain
Cause the money's in the pipeline
And pipeline's running dry
And we'll be the last to recognize
Where there's shit there's always flies

Go Tell It On The Mountain

Go Tell It On The Mountain



Go
Tell it on that mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Hey go
Tell it on that mountain
Jesus Christ is born

Go
Tell it on that mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
I say go
Tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

While shepherds
kept their watching
Over silent flocks by night
Behold throughout the heavens
There shone a holy light

Go
Tell it on that mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
I said go
Tell it on that mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

Down in that lonely manger
The humble Christ was born
God sent to us salvation
Born that Christmas morn

Hey go
Tell it on that mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
I said go
Tell it on that mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

I said go
Tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
I said go
Tell it on that mountain
That Jesus Christ is born
That Jesus Christ is born

I say go
Tell it on that mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
I said go
Tell it on that mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

Hey go
Ttell it on that mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
I said go
Tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

God Bless This Mess

God Bless This Mess



Daddy's in the hallway
Hanging pictures on the wall
Mama's in the kitchen
Making casseroles for all
My brother came home yesterday
From somewhere far away
He doesn't look like I remember
He just stares off into space
He must've seen some ugly things
He just can't seem to say

God bless this mess
God bless this mess

Got a job in town
Selling insurance on the phone
With Robert and Teresa
And two con men from back home
Everyone I call up doesn't have the time to chat
Everybody is so busy doing this and doing that
Something has gone missing

And it makes me kinda sad, oh

God bless this mess
God bless this mess
God bless this mess

Heard about the day
that two skyscrapers came down
Firemen, policemen
And people came from all around
The smoke covered the city
And the body count arise
The president spoke words of comfort
With tears in his eyes
Then he led us as a nation
Into a war all based on lies, oh

God bless this mess
God bless this mess
God bless this mess
God bless this mess
