New Day Dawn | Not Yet Released

New Day Dawn | Not Yet Released

Key of F | (Bb harp)

Ain’t no right ain’t no wrong when you sit and watch a new day dawn

Ain’t no wrong ain’t no right been sittin’ since the dark of night

Walked myself to the edge of town, made damn sure no one follow me down

Yes and to keep myself a little company, well I gotta little hipper from the whiskey family

But it don’t, no it don’t, yes it don’t, matter much anyway

all alone, all alone, one and only, help me get my thinking straight

 

Just cut the cable and the TV screen just a rabid dog barking back at me.

So many voices chiming through my head cant put a face to all the words just said.

Get more listening to the wind and rain or the rumble of a diesel train

Cause a mans a man and a facts a fact, but those are lies and we can’t be lied to like that

But it don’t, no it don’t, yes it don’t, matter much anyway

all alone, all alone, one and only, help me get my thinking straight

 

Hear the drummer get wicked!!!  Hear here the drummer get wicked!

 

You cant tell a lie through a song and expect folks to listen all that long.

Guitar note catch a breeze and off it go, and whos gonna catch em I don’t know.

Way over top a voice gonna hit that note and you know it’s coming from a blueman’s throat.

Thats my version of a TV screen, you see it don’t have to be all obscene.

But it don’t, no it don’t, yes it don’t, matter much anyway

all alone, all alone, one and only, help me get my thinking straight

Me & My Uncle | The Grateful Dead

Key of D minor | (D Minor Blues/ Relative F Major )

Me and my uncle went ridin’ down, South Colorado, West Texas bound
We stopped over in Santa Fe, that being the point, just about halfway
And you know it was the hottest part of the day


And I took the horses up to the stall , went to the barroom, ordered drinks for all
Three days in the saddle, you know my body hurt, it being summer, I took off my shirt
And I tried to wash off some of that dusty dirt


West Texas cowboys, they was all around, wheat, liquor and money, they loaded down
So soon after payday, no, it seemed a shame, you know my uncle, he starts playin’ the game
Hey now, high-low jack and the winner take the hand


My uncle start winning, the cowboys got sore, one of them called him, and then two more
Accused him of cheatin’, oh no, it couldn’t be, I know my uncle, he’s as honest as me
Hey now, I’m as honest as a Denver man can be, that’s right


One of them cowboys, he starts to draw, and I shot him down, Lord, he never saw
Shot me another, hot damn, he won’t grow old, in the confusion, my uncle grabbed the gold
And we hightailed it down to Mexico


Now I love those cowboys, I love their gold, love my uncle, God rest his soul
Taught me good, Lord, taught me all I know, taught me so well, that I grabbed that gold
I left his dead ass there by the side of the road, yeah

Can’t Find My Way (Call of the Wild) | To Love a Wild Fire

A Blues Pent (Dom V) | Key of D (I) | (D cross harp)

Babe I can’t find my way back home
I can’t find no air to breathe
I can’t find my way outta here
Lord it might be the death of me

Lord, I know that you need me home
The wheel in the sky on fire
Gonna say to me it’s just a lie
When that something calls me out in the night

= Chorus
Gone are the times away, gone are the nights alone
I can see your light shine, it brings me back from the call of the wild

Neon light burn holes in my eyes
The moon screams out my name
Lord I’ve been like a moth to the fire
I’m tuned, tuned into the call wild

Baby HELL YES I know
Hard living’s not where I want to be
It’s just the price of what I think is being free
I don’t know what calls me out into the night

= Chorus
Gone are the times away, gone are the nights alone
I can see your light shine, it brings me back from the call of the wild

= Verse
Now I know that I’ve always been home
Awake from that lucid dream
The one that took the breath outta me
The one that scared the death outta me

Lord, I know that you got me home
I see love in your eyes are on fire
I know that you are my burning light
your beauty called me back in from the night

= Chorus
Gone are the times away, gone are the nights alone
I can see your light shine, it brings me back from the call of the wild

Come Easily | To Love a Wild Fire 2020

Key of D | (G harp)

Intro 4X

Makes no difference where I’m going doesn’t really matter where I’ve been

When I feel her eyes upon me I know, I’m exactly where I need to be

Home is where you make it, Sweet home should come easily

Could be on some distant beach Im a lying, Could be neath shade of my baby’s tree

 

I spent six years in New York City, like living in a penitentiary

Stole a motorbike rode it to the ocean, My broken heart came back to me

Home lord you’ve got to go out and take it, Sweet home should come easily

Could be on some highway that I’m riding, Could be left behind in those city streets

 

C Bridge 8X SKAT and Hum along with bridge.

 

I came to reside in California, Spend my days rolling at the beach

All the pretty girls there they let their hair down, they’ve got nothing on my sweet beauty

Home feels just like my woman, Does it fell good?! Lord you’d better believe

She comes & joins me anywhere Im lying, She gives me shade beneath her tree

 

C Bridge 8X SKAT and Hum along with bridge.

LA Woman | Cover

Key of A | (D harp)

Well, I just got into town about an hour ago

Took a look around, see which way the wind blow

Where the little girls in their hollywood bungalows

Are you a lucky little lady in the city of light

Or just another lost angel…city of night

City of night, city of night, city of night, woo, cmon

L.a. woman, l.a. woman  

L.a. woman sunday afternoon 3X

Drive through your suburbs

Into your blues, into your blues, yeah Into your blue-blue blues Into your blues, ohh, yeah

–LATIN — 8x

I see your hair is burnin, Hills are filled with fire

If they say I never loved you, You know they are a liar

Drivin down your freeways, Midnight alleys roam

Cops in cars, the topless bars, Never saw a woman…

So alone, so alone So alo-o-one, so alone 

 

Motel money murder madness

Lets change the mood from glad to sadness

Mr. mojo risin 4X  Got to keep on risin

Mr. mojo risin 4X  Got to keep on risin

Risin, risin 4X

Well, risin, risin I gotta, wooo, yeah, risin Woah, ohh yeah

 

Well, I just got into town about an hour ago

Took a look around, see which way the wind blow

Where the little girls in their hollywood bungalows

Are you a lucky little lady in the city of light

Or just another lost angel…city of night

City of night, city of night, city of night, woo, cmon

 

L.a. woman, l.a. woman, l.a. woman, your my woman

Little l.a. woman, little l.a. woman  L.a. l.a. woman woman, l.a. woman cmon

Keep Warm | To Love a Wild Fire 2020

Key of A | (D harp)

Looking down on the Rocky Mountains
On a jet plane flying over
Peering out the window clouds pass me by

Well, I must have been crazy
To love a wild fire
A wildfire explodes then it’s gone

And a change in the weather
The wind changes direction
Just a signal that the fire’s gone cold

The times we spent in love
Are the times that last FOREVER
Sure gonna miss them when they’re gone

But they’ll keep me warm
Yes they keep me warm
Ohh, they Keep Me Warm
ALL THE TIME

Wishing you were here with me
Drinking my bourbon whiskey
Just one kiss of your lips would light up the sky

Streets of Philadelphia
Golden Sun of California
Freedom sings her song, the greatest gift of all

Well I’ve been around the world
This old world a few times
One thing I’ve learned I will explain

The times we spent in love
Are the times that last FOREVER
Sure gonna miss them when they’re gone

But they’ll keep me warm
Yes they keep me warm
Ohh, they Keep Me Warm
ALL THE TIME

Ragtop Car | Single

Key of F | (Bb harp). Modulate to Cm follow Mike

Some say that the love of the wanderlust
Is just a life that won’t amount to much,
A man born with rambling shoes
Is just another man born to loose
I want to set the record straight,
Before I hit the road today.  Hit the road jack no more

Got a ragtop car, enough gas to take us far
Enough away, cause I plan to drive all-day
When the evening comes we’ll be like loaded guns
Out in the night shooting stars from the sky, baby

When the blue sky’s lost in a concrete maze,
I get the feeling, I wanna get lost for days
Lace-up my rambling shoes
Get a chance to beat the 3rd street blues
Race up the Taconic Parkway
Drive until the break of Day( Make a love stop along the way) – yeah yeah Back seat style yeah

Got a ragtop car, enough gas to take us far
Enough away, cause I plan to drive all-day
When the evening comes we’ll be like loaded guns
Out in the night shooting stars from the sky, baby

SOLOS INSTRUMENTAL

I got myself a roady in my hand
Talking a cool Pabst Blue ribbon, in a can
I’m not trying to be tough just priming up the motor of love
Gotta loosen up here come my baby OHHHH, I love the way she just a struttin’ that stuff.

Got a ragtop car, enough gas to take us far
Enough away, cause I plan to drive all-day
When the evening comes we’ll be like loaded guns
Out in the night shooting stars from the sky, baby

 

 

FADE OUT repeat the last line getting softer & softer

Out in the night shooting stars from the sky, baby

Long Live the King | Margo Price

Key of C | (F harp)

Elvis sang Willie Nelson
On the day that he died
“Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain”
With the pain inside

Took his pills and he went to bed
Heart attack’s what the paper said
What I’d give just one more time to hear him sing
But the King is dead
He’s long gone
Long live the King

MLK was a Christian
He loved Ghandi, he loved girls
Grew up in segregation
But he saw another world

He marched and sang and stood for the poor
He was for the fight but against the war
But they murdered him like Christ ’cause he had a dream

But the King is dead
He’s long gone
Long live the King
GUITAR——

They gunned down John Lennon
On a cold winter night
Outside of the Dakota
In the middle of his prime
They put him down for speaking the truth
He was a feminist and an asshole too
But in the end he risked it all for love and peace, yeah
But the King is dead
He’s long gone
Long live the King

Long live the King

Key of C | (F harp)

She stepped right off of the train, Headed straight across the platform
Behold her beautiful face, Asking for a lighter, you got one

Let me see the moonlight in your eyes
Let me see the New York City light
Let me smell the incense in the air
Baby don’t you know that we’re almost there

Because
Each night is only rock and roll, babe
You can have it any way you want
Or else waltz away

Madison Square, walk right inside
From where I stand they look you right in the eyes
This song I’ve sang out loud a million times
Right there, the square, the square

Oh won’t you feel it
Won’t you join along
Won’t you feel, feel, feel it, join along
Won’t you feel, feel, feel it, join along

VERSE 2—————
If you want a right place, If you want a piece of the action, action
Whole sweet embrace, Always amplify attraction

VERSE 2—————
When we missed the last train home
Camped for Letterman tickets but got none
Float through outer space
Rockafeller Center and then some

Looking at the Moon | To Love a Wild Fire 2020

Key of C Major Am | (Am harp)

Intro 4X A- to C vamp

One solitary man looking at the moon, looking at the moon

One beaten down dream had the guts to stand, stand tall through it all

I saw her run run into the night, run across the dawn

One single rose was thrown it fell into my hand, it fell into my hand

 

2X Chorus ———

I will ride, across the midnight sky, I see you look up, with your starlit eyes

 

2X Bridge———-   INSTRUMENTAL

2X Roll on the back of the Milky Way if you like

 

One solitary man had the guts to dream, dream a dream out loud, go west young man

One million stars at once looked me in the eyes blew my mind, blew my mind

One heart rise above the rest All the rest will fall, All the rest will fall

One look in those eyes I decided to stay, I decided to stay

 

2X Chorus ———

I will ride, across the midnight sky

I see you look up, with your starlit eyes

 

2X Bridge———-   INSTRUMENTAL

2X Roll on the back of the Milky Way if you like

 

Verse ———

One look in those eyes blew my mind, blew my mind

One listen to her song Filled my heart, it didn’t take long

One listen to her song blew my mind, blew my mind

One solitary man looking at the moon, looking at the moon

 

2X Chorus ———

I will ride, across the midnight sky

I see you look up, with your starlit eyes

Down Low | Sessions

Key of Em

Sometimes you play a hand and it turns it all upside down
I’ve got a real bad feeling that they’re coming for me now
Said don’t you hear the tires burning up to the house
Hear them call my name but I just can’t go

Don’t you know I’ve got to lay down low,Don’t you know I’ve got to lay down low
Lay down low, lay down low, Don’t you know I’ve got to lay down low

A rendezvous arranged by cell got the marker placed
Comotion at the front door into splinters I hear it break
Veiled by the darkened shadow I make a slow retreat
All those fools a chasing think they’re in the know

Slipped past in the night just to lay down low, Slipped past in the night just to lay down low
Lay down low, lay down low, Slipped past in the night just to lay down low

Once again, I’m running like the Devil in the dark of night
Kill the lights my friend and throw it into four-wheel drive
These woods and roads I’ve known just about all of my life
This here truck can motor but it goes too slow

Don’t you know I’ve got to lay down low, Don’t you know I’ve got to lay down low
Lay down low, lay down low, Don’t you know I’ve got to lay down low

Sometimes you play a hand and nothing ends turning right
But just past the state line, there’s an airstrip dark as night
Gotta, load the cargo, sit back as we take flight
Jet plane take me to where I want to go

Because I got to leave the ground so I can lay down low, I said I got to leave the ground so I can lay down low
Lay down low, lay down low, I got to leave the ground so I can lay down low

Got to leave the ground behind
Got to leave
Got to kiss the sky

Kick It Back Cut Loose | Not Released

Key of G | (D harp)

Working from 9 to 5 can beat a man down from day to day

but when your working for whiskey and women, Hearing what I say?

THis old dog has learned a thing or two just a riding on the country lanes

Sometimes you need to take the whell and gey beyond that rat race.

 

 

 

—chorus—

There aint no use in thinking when you know what you gotta do

talking is procrastination, you got to kick it down and break it loose

ohh lord kick it down and break it loose

——

 

People spending their lives trying to keep one up on their brother man

I pay no mind to that bullshit, yes I never give a god damn

looking back to the happiest days barely made myself the months rent

no I couldn’t find 2 dimes to rub together, never worried bout what I spent

 

—chorus—

Its been too many years I lost count some time ago

seems like the faces and places of my childhood melt away like a late snow

been away from town for so many years they’ll hardly recognize my face

so take me Mississippi river take me back to my mammas place

Key of G | (D harp)

What would you think if I sang out of tune?
Would you stand up and walk out on me?
Lend me your ears and I’ll sing you a song
And I’ll try not to sing out of key

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friendsMm, I get high, Mm, gonna try

What do I do when my love is away?
Does it worry you to be alone?
How do I feel by the end of the day?
Are you sad because you’re on your own?

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friendsMm, I get high, Mm, gonna try
Do you need anybody?
I need somebody to love
Could it be anybody?
I want somebody to love

Would you believe in a love at first sight?
Yes, I’m certain that it happens all the time
What do you see when you turn out the light?
I can’t tell you, but I know it’s mine

 

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, get high with a little help from my friends
Oh, I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends

Do you need anybody?
I need somebody to love
Could it be anybody?
I want somebody to love

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Key of A | (D harp)

Out of bed in the evening
Just as city folks are leaving
See ‘em heading back home from their 9 to 5
My pretty baby says
Why you always got to tease me
Always in the mood afternoon delight
Get up and Get over here Better hold on tight

Steam from the shower
Brings me back to my senses
I take a deep breath and open my eyes
She’s got me feeling so good
Just a man on a mission
Livin’ every single day like its a Saturday Night

EVERY SINGLE DAY, EVERY SINGLE DAY
EVERY SINGLE DAY LIKE A SATURDAY NIGHT

 

Nights like these
Are one in a million
Doesn’t have to end, we can watch the sunrise
I just want to say
Thank you and I love you
Always make me feel so so good inside
So Good, So Good

What’s your pleasure
On this finest evening
Tell me your dreams, we can bring them to life
You’ve got me feeling so good
Just a man on a mission
Livin’ every single day like its a Saturday Night

EVERY SINGLE DAY, EVERY SINGLE DAY
EVERY SINGLE DAY LIKE A SATURDAY NIGHT

 

Like everything that’s good
This must come to an ending
Leaving everything I‘ve got up on this stage tonight
When the lights come back on
Party people take their leave and
I hope you make it home safely and satisfied

I want to say it once again
Thank you and I love you
Always make me feel so so good inside

You’ve got me feeling so good
Just a man on a mission
Livin’ every single day like its a Saturday Night

Fare Thee Well | To Love a Wild Fire

Key of D | (G harp)

The moon came out and the Milky Way disappeared

Staring at my shadow wondering how the hell I got here

Could it be that this happenstance is what brought me to this place tonight

Or am i just another fool, blinded by the moonlight

Maybe baby time will tell, maybe baby time will tell

My brother fare the well, maybe baby time will tell

 GUITAR

On the day that our father died the songbird she starts to cry (could only cry)

I lost my place in this here world he was our symbol of the GOOD life

Let my tears be the seed that healsthe scars left on this here farm

It’s not that you done me wrong, it’s just we’ve all got broken hearts.

Maybe baby time will tell, maybe baby time will tell

My brother fare the well, maybe baby time will tell

GUITAR

Thirteen years to the day I can still feel you by my side

I can still see your smiling face (like yesterday), all I got to do is close my eyes.

At the first light to the new day cold water wakes my warm face

I try to swim beyond the horizon line  because I know you’ll be by my side

ALT As I climb up through the rising tide, feels real good to have you by my side.

Maybe baby time will tell, maybe baby time will tell

My brother fare the well, maybe baby time will tell

GUITAR

HARMONICA CRY

These tears will never dry, nor do I expect them to.   I love you, love is forever

I know you’re looking down on me, I love you baby
