New song…

CAPO 6

V: F7,   G6?,   Em,  Am

F,  G,  Am,  G,   Am,   F,  G,  Am 

VERSE 1

Dreamin outback zodiaque

Never goes too far

Hopin for a harlequin

A multicoloured jet fin

Somethin to begin

The heartbeat in his gin

Sittin alone I aint lonely

Starin at the phone

But I aint gonna call

Instead I got an old cork screw

And a bottle of blue

That’ll help me get through

CHORUS (x2)

Yeah I’m lyin on my bed

And I got you babe

Goin round n round in my head

It’s like my wheels just re-gained their tread

And now this pen is made of lead

(We’re burnin red…)

That’s how I know babe

Our Love Aint Dead, no our love

Our Love Aint Dead

VERSE 2

Front bar volcada cigar

Listenin to the wah wah

Hummin into Zeppelin

A tangerine mandolin

Somethin bohemian

Like a broken-hearted violin

Tainted fainted memory

Sculptured into baritone

Aint gonna fall

Instead he gotta cold home brew

And an aristotle view

That won’t let me break through

Kung The Fu

Gotta knotta fire started out inside

All them years ago now it’s unstoppable

Wear it inside out cause through em years

It’s been burnin down my house

Ain’t nothin ever gonna douse it out now

Shout it out to the universe this never endin golden curse

Cause I gotta have it astronomical

I wanna have the impossible, the unattainable

Hurts so good it sucks, oh yeah, it’s fluffy ducked

Every now n then jolts the vow to never give in

Ignition to the drive a reminder to strive

Still feel it like a bloated unamed nemo

A salt water fish swimmin in a bowl of piss

Shattered ground are we runnin outta time

Oh my god, when’my gonna be found

Before it’s too late before i’m buried underground?

I wanna believe in back to the future

So when my clock strikes five n i’m barely alive

You’ll arrive like a thunderbolt in the nick of time

Travel back to the start n fix the fluffy duck-ups

But then again ain’t nobody perfect

Only a lover gonna see you as a ten outta ten

And when I met you I was wearin O2

Spinnin déjà vu into 2 live crew

Never knew bout the color blue

Till I looked at you n dropped that midnight hue

Kung the fu, cork the screw n walk the due

But I ain’t ever givin up on you

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So Long

New song … another one for the Lovestruck album? (grrr)

No capo

Chords: (starts on 5th, down to 2nd, 3rd, 5th using D string and A string as bass)

G5  E5   B5     D5

 

Verse 1

You’ve been gone away for so long

Got me wondrin where I went wrong

And somewhere along the way

There must be somethin you forgot to say to me

And I’ve been waitin for you for so long

It’s time I faced the truth head-on

Someone must’ve stepped in our way

And now they’ve stolen you away from me

Chorus

How do I say goodbye

How do I say So Long

How do I walk away

From everythin that turns me on

How do I say goodbye

How do I say So Long

How do I walk away

Since lovin you for oh so long

Bridge 

I feel a spark ignite my heart

It hits me hard n i’m alive

Yeah it’s you I feel in the bright night

Is love real or just surreal

A candy-fired heart of steel

Yeah it’s you I taste in the sweet heat

I’ll never forget the flutter

As you pulled me from the gutter

Why can’t this be the way our story really ends

Verse 2

We’ve been goin on for so long

Now we got somethin so strong

Ain’t nothin gonna get in our way

There ain’t nothin gonna tear us apart again

And I’ve been chasin true love for so long

A rhyme that’s laced as proof into song

One day we’ll hear it playin on the radio

While we’re rollin in the deep blue sea

Chorus

 

Lost In Our Song

New song forming…can’t seem to stop
​I don’t know what to do to get to you
And so it’s just another night 
Feelin blue without you
I crossed the line n looked you up
Hopin for a sign
To tell me where you’re at 
To see what you been up to
But i’m as blind as a bat
If I can’t see you’re gone
Holdin on…
Are you Lost In Our Song?
Oh darlin where you been 
You’re nowhere to be seen
Except in my dream 
You’re my centrefold magazine 
Blue-Rose Star-tacked time machine
Stuck to the wall
I can’t break down
But i’m the one 
I’m the one
I’m the one
I’m the one who wanna be your Queen

Owner Of My Heart

New song  🙂

Our love is heaven

That beats twenty-four-seven

A match to the zen

Struck from above

And even when I’m blue

From not bein with you

Yeah even though we’re not together in the flesh

I’ll never run off with another

No matter what the weather

I’ll never run for cover

Even when the sun don’t shine

Cause you’re the Owner Of My Heart

Yo baby, you’re the Owner Of My Heart

Just found this one from a little while ago…To work on 🥀

You slit loves’ wrists

Punched its heart with your fists

Said one day we’d be one

But you never came

And now my love

I love you more than ever

At your throne draped in pain

God smacked I realise

Heart pulsating

In your hands

Sword so bright

I see you in the dark

You let me be here still

Shackled in that place

Aching and waiting

For your lead

While in my hands

Our blue rose bleeds…

I keep finding little bits of ‘incomplete’ writing.   Wrote this one on the Qantas flight to UK 🤔

28 January 2018

Two years prior like Mariah was up so high but this time round I got my bro to the side

Vacant seat the other side 

Comin up to forty four next month but right about now its been 48 hours without the shutter’s down 

I feel there’s not too much left of me now 

I’m the Ali G made into biltong 

Straight out the billabong 

Like eighty eight acid been sprayed in my face n down the aisle 

There goes my left eyeball 

(So so tired…)

Outside a hard rain is fallin

Tangled queues are formin

Patiently awaitin

Yeah everybody with somebody

They gotta hubby or a buddy

A mother or a brother

A wife or a lover

Faces that tell a story

Of a million miles together

Mathematician calculatin

First to come last to go

(Knock knock knockin…)

Through them doors I walk alone

Blue pen gonna set the tone

Into an open book of poem

Gotta table in the corner

A riddle comin on

Bout Time’s Never Changin

Undercover stadium

Backstage Zimmerman

Red star Heineken

Cold fries n merchandise

Go ahead n roll em dice

(Yeah) Baby It’s alright to think twice

… ??? more to add 🙂

New song lyrics forming…

Verse 1

She wears his logo like a hobo

Threads flowin round like a yoyo

Spinnin like a faded rainbow

Bitter may whipped the bay

For the longest day he went away

She wonders why he wouldn’t stay

Why he left her heart to fray

 

 

Verse 2

She’s cuttin onions with a sharp shun

But that ain’t why she’s cryin

If I could you know I would

Turn the hands back to then 

And strike up a deal with God

Every day bail the hay

And every night pray

Give up everything I’ve got

If only I could swap

I’d finish that degree

In cell biology

Or specialize in medicine

Give everything I got

If only I could swap

If I could wear your shoes

I’d walk away the blues

Just to see your smile

I’d run a billion miles

Climb the highest mountain

Swim Antarctic seas

Give everything I got

If only I could swap

I can’t fix your blood

But maybe all my love
