I sent a capo to ease your heart
Skip to the end and go back to the start
I gotta problem but I got hope
My heart is open my eyes are closed
Do too much thinking
Not enough drinking
My world is sinking but I’m pulling it up
‘cos I’m lost in you and you’re lost in me
And we’re lost together
I lost my capo
I lost my mind
Regret the days that I was so inkind
I found a bright spark out of the black
I’m jumping forward and there’s no turning back
Do too much thinking
Not enough drinking
My world is sinking but I’m pulling it up
‘cos I’m lost in you and you’re lost in me
And we’re lost together
Ooh ooh...
Du du du…
‘cos I’m lost in you and you’re lost in me
And we’re lost together
‘cos I’m lost in you and you’re lost in me
And we’re lost together

Mr Sun is coming down and smiling on your English town
And we can’t believe
Sitting in Egyptian green and Juniper it lights the trees
And we’re running free
And it makes me feel alive
Makes me want to try
Hold on to the hope, hold on to the love
Hold on with all the strength you have, have to share
Hug if you’re gonna hug, smile if you’re gonna smile
Mr Sun is shining down on you, me today
Tributes to the ones we love
Worship them like shouting Gods that make us happy
Dancing ‘til our feet are sore
Songs of stars and songs of whores that make us happy
And the dogs are flying high
What a time to be alive
Hold on to the hope, hold on to the love
Hold on with all the strength you have, have to share
Hug if you’re gonna hug, smile if you’re gonna smile
Mr Sun is shining down on you, me today
Mr Sun is setting now
The batteries are fading out and we’ll meet again

At once
02:48
|

All my birthdays would come at once
If you would only take a chance
And we can lay down and dance
Like lovers do
In the middle of this hell
I could cast on you a spell
Everything would go so well
With me and you
The emptiness is vast
And now we're in the dark
I hope this feeling lasts
And you have left your mark
I don't wanna be far away from you
All at once my feelings make me blue
I don't want to be without you yeah
I don't want emotions misconstrued
I just want to be right beside you
All at once my world is clear
I don't wanna be far away from you
All at once my feelings make me blue
I don't want to be without you yeah
I don't want emotions misconstrued
I just want to be right beside you
All at once my world is clear
Clear clear clear

Frank Black is back

You're the reason that I started the band
You're the reason that I hurt my left hand
You're the reason that I sing so loud today
And everyone knows
How the chorus it goes
It just gets louder and louder today
'Cos Frank Black is back oh yeah!
Frank Black is back oh yeah!
What do you think about that baby? oh!
You're the reason why my life isn't bland
You're the reason that they understand
You're the reason that I don't feel lost today
And everyone knows
How the chorus it goes
It just gets louder and louder today
'Cos Frank Black is back oh yeah!
Frank Black is back oh yeah!
What do you think about that baby? oh!
Frank Black is back oh yeah!
Frank Black is back oh yeah!
What do you think about that baby?
What do you think about that? oh!

Jimmy Brown from Campbeltown
Wore a smile underneath his frown
Never bothered him before
This time he’s looking down
Looks to the ground, he cannot eat
Feels incomplete
You are the sunlight when the daytime starts to fade
You are the music when the band begins to play
You are the feeling when I’ve got it made
You are the feeling that I can’t quite reach today
Jimmy Brown was a kind old man
Drinks cups of tea by the gallon
And I still miss him today
We lost our mind but not our souls
The laughter lifts us from this hole
Blue sky covers grey
You are the sunlight when the daytime starts to fade
You are the music when the band begins to play
You are the feeling when I’ve got it made
You are the feeling that I can’t quite reach today
And I won’t be lost inside myself
I guess your laughter has just cast a spell
Another roll-up and all are doing well
You are the sunlight when the daytime starts to fade
You are the music when the band begins to play
You are the feeling when I’ve got it made
You are the feeling that I can’t quite reach today
You are the feeling that I can’t quite reach today
You are the feeling that I can’t quite reach today
You are the feeling that I can’t quite reach today
You are the feeling that I can’t quite reach today
Hey

From the daylight ‘til yawning comes
We sleep together forever one and
On ‘til time has passed like collider
Exploding beneath both our hearts
You are sunlight through the rain
You are my verse you’re my refrain
Every second I await your call
Like birdsong the message comes
And I awake from my slumber and smile again
We can let a sleeping dog lie
And care for one another
The dog awakes with open eyes
To see its father and its mother
You are sunlight through the rain
You are my verse you’re my refrain
Every second I await your call
Like birdsong the message comes
And I awake from my slumber and smile again
And as a family a future looks so welcome
The sunlight fades and leaves may fall
But our love will live on
And as a family a future looks so welcome
The sunlight fades and leaves may fall
But our love will live on

Is it wrong to dream of oceans when you cannot swim?
Lost in all of that devotion now I’m getting suckered in
I can’t breathe it’s chloroforming me
This lack of belief
Is it wrong to dream of oceans when you cannot swim?
When my writing gets atrocious pick my brains out of the bin
I can’t live without harmony
Gotta have belief
Aah…
Come on now let’s bring it home
Don’t you know you’re not alone
I’ve got tickets to the latest show
If you stop there you will never go
Come on now let’s bring it home
Don’t you know you’re not alone
I’ve got tickets to the latest show
If you stop there you will never go
Du du du…

Got my future on a 1,4,5
Singing songs to stay alive
6 and 3 for the sadness in me
Riffin' on the past
What is this heresy?
All there for all to see
Sonic boost in my memory
The only way that I get free
Big ideas feel like they're just for me
Got some more if you please
Saved my life with a demo and beer
All that worry just disappeared
Wonderin' how I got to here
Broke a string and lost my fear
What is this heresy?
All there for all to see
Sonic boost in my memory
The only way that I get free
Big ideas feel like they're just for me
Got some more if you please
Sonic boost in my memory
The only way that I get free
Big ideas feel like they're just for me
Got some more if you please
Sonic boost in my memory
The only way that I get free
Big ideas feel like they're just for me

A country boy with a broken face
Walked right out this dear place
And everybody thought that he had died
A bottle of Whisky in one hand
Singin’ I am the fuckin’ man
And everybody thought it was a lie
He sings the songs that tell the truth
And everytime that he cuts loose
He lets it slip that the songs are all for her
Now all he’s got is the booze
And all the time he seems to lose
He’s a lonely spaced out country boy
A diet of Jack and too many late nights
Thinkin’ that he was doin’ alright
Everybody warned him of his ways
With Sam Colt by his side
Tryin’ to keep hold of his pride
He knew he was headin’ for an early grave
He sings the songs that tell the truth
And everytime that he cuts loose
He lets it slip that the songs are all for her
Now all he’s got is the booze
And all the time he seems to lose
He’s a lonely spaced out country boy
He sings the songs that tell the truth
And everytime that he cuts loose
He lets it slip that the songs are all for her
Now all he’s got is the booze
And all the time he seems to lose
He’s a lonely spaced out country boy
He’s a lonely spaced out country boy
He’s a lonely spaced out country boy
He’s a lonely spaced out country boy
mmm…yeah!

I can't be the one
I say to myself
I need to carry on
Love is lonely
But when you're sure and you're hoping for more
But you can't say but you can't say
Or you won't say or you won't say
Cos you see the world like I do like i ido
Is it meant to align the stars?
And the future unfurls in my head late at night
Should the world always fall apart?
I savour the time of day when we're together
The thunder is pushed away is it now or never?
But i'm not sure I can take anymore
Heartbreak and it's painful cos I don't know cos I don't know
Cos you see the world like I do like i ido
Is it meant to align the stars?
And the future unfurls in my head late at night
Should the world always fall apart
I'm a cat with one more life
And it's hurting like the sharpest knife
No more doubting myself
Cos you see the world like I do like i ido
Is it meant to align the stars?
And the future unfurls in my head late at night
Should the world always fall apart?
Cos you see the world like I do like i ido
Is it meant to align the stars?
And the future unfurls in my head late at night
Should the world always fall apart?

Travelling on my way to Ardentinny
That’s where I’m gonna go
Travelling on my way to Ardentinny
To the sweetest place I know
And when I find her I must remind her
That she’ll always be
The misty hillside the bluebells and the sea
Travelling on my way to Ardentinny
That’s where I’m gonna go
Travelling on my way to Ardentinny
To the sweetest place I know
The darkened daylight
It’s freezing outside
In the afternoon
Out in the forest
Our path is guided by the moon
Travelling on my way to Ardentinny
By the fields on windy roads
Travelling on my to Ardentinny
And I still call it home
The wind and rain
Brings beauty’s name to me again
Travelling on my way to Ardentinny
That’s where I’m gonna go
Travelling on my way to Ardentinny
To the sweetest place I know

Take me places
Twist the faces
And you’ll never understand
A higher plan
Early morning
Pain is dawning
I know these images aren’t real
I’m forgetting how to…
Feel……..
And I know the truth it looms
I’ll blow my brain to kingdom come
I’ll miss you, miss you in the morning I’ll kiss you when the truth is dawning
I’ll listen to the song I’ve listened to five thousand times or more
I’ll make you higher than the sunrise I’ll take you wherever the crow flies
I’ll look into the soul I’ve looked into a thousand times before
Oh oh oh oh oh
I’ll miss you, miss you in the morning I’ll kiss you when the truth is dawning
I’ll listen to the song I’ve listened to five thousand times or more
I’ll make you higher than the sunrise I’ll take you wherever the crow flies
I’ll look into the soul I’ve looked into a thousand times before

Bad blood (revisited)

I used to think a lot of you
Have a laugh and jam away
But when you left my brain to stew
You left me with a lot say
‘cos you’re a motherfucker
I aint got time for you
Good riddance to bad blood
I’ve had enough of you
My metal hands are rusting in the bin
So fuck you very much
I’ll carry on and try to force a grin
Keep my emotions in touch
‘cos you’re a motherfucker
I aint got time for you
Good riddance to bad blood
I’ve had enough of you
You left me standing
Like a fool I wait
Now where do I go
And if I saw you
I’d punch your face
But now I’ll just go with the flow
‘cos you’re a motherfucker
I aint got time for you
Good riddance to bad blood
I’ve had enough of you
‘cos you’re a motherfucker
I aint got time for you
Good riddance to bad blood
I’ve had enough of you
I’ve had enough of you
I’ve had enough of you

Standin' in the darkness and I don't know what to do
I don't see the light and all i see is you
I'm my own worst enemy I know that much is true
Tryin' to find a way to pull me through
And I don't wanna hear it now
Don't wanna hear it now
It's all disappearing now
Oh wow!
Walkin' through the dirt the mess you left behind
All the situations are playing with my mind
Stuck out in the wildernessI cannot find a soul
Everything is broken everything is low
And I don't wanna hear it now
Don't wanna hear it now
It's all disappearing now
Oh wow!
Yeah yeah yeah...,

There’s lots of people here today
And I can’t hear the voices shouting in my head
There’s a silence there you say
Counteracts the noises when the book has not been read
I can’t breathe
Not got anything up my sleeve
Don’t wanna leave
Nothing left the grass is overgrown
And all my thoughts have been undone
So let me be let me be
Let me be the ocean crashing
Under the sun
So let me be let me be
Let me be the ocean crashing
Under the sun
Under the sun
Under the sun
There’s lots of reasons for me to stay
I can hear the choices going through my mind
My mood it changes day by day
Fighting all my causes
The peace I try to find
I can’t breathe
Not got anything up my sleeve
Don’t wanna leave
Nothing left the grass is overgrown
And all my thoughts have been undone
So let me be let me be
Let me be the ocean crashing
Under the sun
So let me be let me be
Let me be the ocean crashing
Under the sun
Under the sun
Under the sun
Peace of mind
Out of line
The sun won’t shine
Now it’s night time
So let me be let me be
Let me be the ocean crashing
Under the sun
So let me be let me be
Let me be the ocean crashing
Under the sun
Under the sun
Under the sun
Under the sun

Did you get the message transmitted through the waves?
Did you hear the breathless sigh as I called your name?
Feel the glow
Take it slow
All the time in the world
Did you see the neon lights of love?
Up there in the forlorn sky above
Hold my hand
To foreign lands
All the hope in the world
3 days early the gift that you gave
The one that saved my life
3 days early our thoughts are the same
Time to kiss goodnight
3 days early the gift that you gave
The one that saved my life
3 days early our thoughts are the same
Time to kiss goodnight
Finally
Close to me
Destiny
It was meant to be

Oh my god! Another admission Oh my god! A bad decision

Love heckles (revisited)

All those love heckles we have
Extract the good from all that is bad
and with Grace we'll start to sing
our time it will come
All those boring empty days
when your soul is breaking and your hope has washed away
we'll be back when all this ends
keep a light on there for me
we will be with the sound of being free
It's gonna be alright
keep sayin' it to yourself
don't you cry at night
i'm always here to help
the dark can't stand the light
so look towards the sky
and watch the world go by
all the endless days that drag
the songs are there to feed the hope we have
and when the storm has washed away
we're gonna sing so loud
we will be with the sound of being free
It's gonna be alright
keep sayin' it to yourself
don't you cry at night
i'm always here to help
the dark can't stand the light
so look towards the sky
and watch the world go by
It's gonna be alright
keep sayin' it to yourself
don't you cry at night
i'm always here to help
the dark can't stand the light
so look towards the sky
and watch the world go by

Village politics here’s lookin’ at you
You took my PIP what am I to do?
Hey hey hey!
Why pull the plug on so many lives?
Then sip your wine hope you’re feelin’ fine
While I can’t breathe and I can’t sleep
The money and the power is drivin’ me crazy
I can feel your hate is real
The money and the power is drivin’ me mad
Makes me so sad
Why you so bad?
It’s drivin’ me mad
Village politics is wreckin’ my brain
Is the money and the power drivin’ you insane?
Hey hey hey!
It seems corruption comes with an upgrade
On the backs of the weakest careers are made
While I still breathe and I still feel
You’re havin’ a laugh if you think that I’m lazy
I may be down but I’m not out
This money situation is drivin’ me mad
Makes me so sad
Why you so bad?
It’s drivin’ me mad
You don’t give a damn
You don’t give a damn
You don’t give a…
I can’t breathe and I can’t sleep
The money and the power is drivin’ me crazy
I can feel your hate is real
The money and the power is drivin’ me mad
Makes me so sad
Why you so bad?
It’s drivin’ me mad

Sinner in the morning
Sinner when I shop
You're a sinner when you're watchin'
A sinner in the ballot box
You can't hide from nothin'
As you're beggin' on the floor
And when the future's crumblin'
Fate is knockin' on the door
Sinnin' in the mornin'
Sinnin' now it's borin'
Sinnin' everyday it's all you do
I'm not preachin' a heathen can't be teachin'
Sinnin' in the mornin' time
Sinnin' in the mornin'
Sinnin' now it's borin'
Sinnin' everyday it's all you do
I'm not preachin' a heathen can't be teachin'
Sinnin' in the mornin' time
The dark clouds gettin' closer
The nights are drawing in
You shouldn't have robbed the pauper
Your conscience is so thin
You can't hide from nothin'
As you're beggin' on the floor
And when the future's crumblin'
Fate is knockin' on the door
Sinnin' in the mornin'
Sinnin' now it's borin'
Sinnin' everyday it's all you do
I'm not preachin' a heathen can't be teachin'
Sinnin' in the mornin' time
Sinnin' in the mornin'

It keeps me going
The hope you’re showing
Keeps me biding time
Love is shining every morning
And as the night time fades
Say it loud now
So you know it’s true
And I get lost now
But I can count on you
It keeps me going
It’s nice not knowing
What the future brings
And every day now
I’m walking somehow
With a little help
Say it loud now
So you know it’s true
And I get lost now
But I can count on you
Change me
Lately
Keeps me going
