The Former Life
Will add the chords later when findin the times... a thank you ... ;)
~~~Sung Blues / Folk ~~~
One day in the year of the world,
I was so young, I still had my innocence and dreams,
Its been so long, I feel that it was someone else,
Being trapped here within these four walls of broken dreams,
I learned the price when deaths your only escape
And though their gone, man I feel so all alone, her death it felt like such a waste, I think their deaths must be slowly killin me,
I’ve grown cold, drinkin for this lonely broken heart disease, cause Lord it’s the only way, that lets me hang on, through all these funerals at dawn, an a semi teary eye disgrace among the lost an lonely cemetery trees,
Its been so long, at least half my life, the beast that now lies within, Lord knows it give me something new to fear
God please don’t let me lose my nerve,,, It creeps out from underneath my bed,,, it whispers in my ear,
~~~ Sung Harder / Metal~~~
Abandon, all hope who enter here, Whisky n’ women await, enter the gates,
All that enter here, Turn off the lights, there is nothing new under the sun,
All things of the former life are now left behind,
All your doubts, all your fears, let them disappear, in the air of fireballs from the demons breath
Sing n’ howl, over an over, in the pale moonlight with beautiful strangers
No, I don’t know how you can stand it;
No…no,,, oh no, no, no, no, don’t you hold in your aggravations, RrrAWRRR
~~~Sung slower~~~
An In my darkest hour, something special healed upon my mind, Eddie my son, how could you have, misplaced you,
So many tears you wasted,,, so many years you were searchin, Oh how you,,, lost you…
Míjo, let your light shine, My son, let your light shine
You still have a purpose to serve; You know you have nothing to fear;
Oh how I Love you, go now, see you, an be you,
