"(Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay"

"(Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay"


Sittin' in the morning sun I'll be sittin' when the evening comes
Watchin' the ships roll in then I watch 'em roll away again
'Msittin' on the dock of the bay watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay wastin' time
I left my home in Georgia headed for the Frisco Bay
I had nothin' to live for looked like nothing's gonna come my way
'Msittin' on the dock of the bay watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay wastin' time
Looks like nothin's gonna change everythin' still remains the same
I can't do what ten people tell me to do so I guess I'll remain the same
Sittin' here restin' my bones this loneliness won't leave me alone
Two thousand miles I roamed just to make this dock my home
'Msittin' on the dock of the bay watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay wastin' time

"A Better Place"

"A Better Place"


I've tried and I've failed Lord
I've won and I have lost
I've lived and I've loved, oh
Such times, at such a cost

One thing I know
The world is good to me
A better place awaits you, you see

Some days I'm so confused, Lord
My past gets in my way
I need the ones that I love most
To hold me more each day

Oooh, a better place.

"A Lady Like You"

"A Lady Like You"


Here I am
Just an ordinary man
And my virtues are few
And I'm amazed
Every morning when I wake
With a lady like you

You're all the good things God put on this earth
And you're so much more than I deserve
And what did I ever do to win a lady like you

Look at me
I'm as common as can be
But do you make me shine
And look at you
You're a lady through and through,
So gracious and kind

And when you sleep, it's always by my side
I look at you and I'm mystified
And what did I ever do to win a lady like you

Heaven knows I'm less than perfect
And I have found the very best
But it's a mystery how someone like me
Was chosen to be blessed with a lady like you

[Musical break with guitar picking]

You're all the good things God put on this earth
And you're so much more than I deserve
And what did I ever do to win a lady like you
A lady like you

"A Place In The Sun"

"A Place In The Sun"


Like a long lonely stream I keep running for the dream moving on moving on
Like a branch on a tree I keep reaching to be free moving on moving on
There's a place in the sun where there's hope for everyone
Where my poor restless heart's gotta run
There's a place in the sun and before my life is done gotta find me a place in the sun

Like a dusty old road I get weary from the load moving on moving on
Like this tired troubled earth I've been running since my birth moving on moving on
There's a place in the sun...

"A Thousand Lifetimes"

"A Thousand Lifetimes"


I’ve lived at least a thousand lifetimes
Walked down a road with no end in sight
I’ve seen miracles in moonlight
And lonely goodbyes

I’ve faced the consequence and sorrow
Still I stood up and faced tomorrow
I’ve had dreams I’ve feared and followed
I found my way home

I’ve held onto coal in my bare hands prayin’ for diamonds
I’ve trusted in the words that to my face turned out were lying
I’ve trapped and I have tripped and I have loved and I’ve abandoned
Each breath I take
Is a gift that I
Will never take
For granted

I have washed upon the shore I’ve fallen, conquered demons
I’ve broken down and broken up without a rhyme or reason
I’ve held the ring of brass and many times smashed it to pieces
Each breath I take
Is a gift that I
Will never take
For granted

I’ve lived at least a thousand lifetimes
Walked down a road with no end in sight
I’ve seen miracles in moonlight
And lonely goodbyes

I’ve held onto coal in my bare hands prayin’ for diamonds
I’ve trusted in the words that to my face turned out were lying
I’ve trapped and I have tripped and I have loved and I’ve abandoned
Each breath I take
Is a gift that I
Will never take
For granted

"All I Have To Do Is Dream"

"All I Have To Do Is Dream"


Dream, dream, dream, dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream

When I want you in my arms
When I want you and all your charms
Whenever I want you
All I have to do is dream
Dream, dream, dream

When I want you in the night
When I want you to hold me tight
Whenever I want you
All I have to do is dream

I can make you mine
Taste your lips of wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is, gee whiz
I'm dreaming my life away

I need you so and that is why
I love you so, don't say goodbye
Whenever I want you
All I have to dream

I can make you mine
Taste your lips of wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is, gee whiz
I'm dreaming my life away

I need you so and that is why
I love you so, don't say goodbye
Whenever I want you
All I have to dream

Dream, dream, dream, dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream

"All I Want Is You"
(originally by U2)

"All I Want Is You"
(originally by U2)



You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold
You say you want your story to remain untold

But all the promises we made
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you

You say you'll give me a highway with no one on it
A treasure just to look upon it
All the riches in the night

You say you'll give me eyes in a world of blindness
A river in a time of dryness
A harbour in the tempest

But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you

You say you want your love to work out right
To last with me through the night

You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold
Your story to remain untold
Your love not to grow cold

All the promises we break
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you

You
All I want is...you
All I want is...you
All I want is...you

"All My Tomorrows"

"All My Tomorrows"


Today I may not have a thing at all except for just a dream or two
But I've got lots of plans for tomorrow and all my tomorrows belong to you
Right now it may not seem like spring at all we're drifting and the laughs are few
But I've got rainbows planned for tomorrow and all my tomorrows belong to you
No one knows better than I that love keeps passing me by that way
But with you there at my side I'll soon be turning the tide just away
As long as I've got arms to cling at all it's you I'll be clinging to
And all the dreams I dream beg or borrow on some bright tomorrow will all come true
And all my tomorrows belong to you
As long as I've got arms to cling at all...

"All The Way"

"All The Way"


When somebody loves you it's no good unless she loves you all the way
Happy to be near you when you need someone to cheer you all the way
Taller than the tallest tree is that's how it's got to be
And deeper than the deep blue sea is now that's how deep it goes if it's real
When somebody needs you it's no good unless she needs you all the way
Through the good or lean years and through all the end between it come what may
Who knows where the love will lead us only a fool would say
But if you let me love you it's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way
Darling all the way
(Who knows where the love will lead us only a fool would say)
But if you let me love you it's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way all the way

"Amazing Grace"

"Amazing Grace"


Oh amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me
I once was lost oh but now I'm found I was blind Lord but now I see
Through many dangers toils and snares that we already fear
Twas grace that brought the sake the spar and grace will lead us home
When we've when we've been there ten thousand years
Bright shining bright shining as the sun
Lord we found this place to sing God's praise Lord as when we first begun
(Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me
I once was lost oh but now I'm found I was blind Lord but now I see)
Amazing amazing grace how sweet the sound...
