| Lyrics: |
born to breathe in the same good story
born to share the sky
making use of a common glory
makes you wonder why
can you see the end from here
and will all that he holds dear
be worth the price
it makes you wonder why
never afraid to understand
that's the way that its done
that's the way it is
Moment of Love in the compromise
carries it well
passes on in the name passed it on
in the name
passed it on
dream real and turn the tide
no castles tonight
far from the roar that hides
another warrior cry
can you see the edge from here
and will all that he holds dear
be worth the price
it makes you wonder why
never afraid to understand
that's the way that its done
that's the way it is
motion of peace in the compromise
carries it well
passed it on in the name passed it on
in the name
passed it on
pictures of peace in the peristyle
carries it well
carries on in the name
passed it on in the name
passed it on
in the name passed it on |

New Old Blue Borrowed
© Brian Dondo 2004
Let's not worry 'bout the way that things are meant to change
we can deal with that tomorrow
All we need is hope that love will always find a way
New Old Blue Borrowed
New Old Blue Borrowed
Perhaps its true that this is simply how its meant to be
more than we'll ever know
Now the time has come to say "forevermore"
I love you so
New Old Blue Borrowed
New Old Blue Borrowed
Time will tell the tale
if fortune smiles upon us or if we suffer other fates
We will never fail
and in the days that follow
from today into tomorrow
we'll bring some luck of our own
New Old Blue Borrowed
New Old Blue Borrowed
All we need is hope that love will always find a way
I love you so
I love you so |

simple ballad about a difficult thing |
|
| Lyrics: |
walk with me
take my hand gently now
we'll share a smile
be with me
i've kept a place for you
safe by my side
if it helps you feel better
more's the pity i saw it too
sad to say it wasn't hard to believe
knowing what people can do
walk with me
there's so much more to see
good things in life
talk with me
i'll listen carefully
sweet child of mine
you'd think they'd know better
but some people think somebody has to lose
don't let that spoil your dreams
or change the meaning of "I love you"
walk with me
hand in hand child of mine
we'll share a smile
you and i
the kindest of victories
here in this life
all too soon we'll say goodbye again
promise now before we part
until you find your way back here safe by my side
you'll carry with you the best part of my heart
whatever the news
if people cause you sorrow
or when your dreams come true
carry with you the best part of my heart |

| Lyrics: |
another year in passing at the break of day
humming out some music from last night
is helping me discover what you had to say
believing in us after all this time
dreamt about an angel that carried on its way
singing of what treasures i could find
and pointed out a blessing that's still with us today
believing in us after all this time
and so it goes
and so i follow
and so we chose
play all night
now and ever after always cause to celebrate
for better or for worse for all our lives
a more than simple promise
a less than simple fate
believing in us after all this time
and so it goes
and angels follow
and so it shows
play all night
play all night and remember like photographs
play all night and remember those sweet little dreams
play all night and i'll savour the treasure that you're here with me
and when the day is over and we settle into night
to have and hold some harmony a while
again i'll hear that angel whisper melody and rhyme
believing in us after all this time
and so it goes
and changes follow
and so it grows
play all night
play all night and remember like photographs
play all night and remember those sweet little dreams
play all night and i'll savour the treasure that you're here with me
play all night and remember like photographs
play all night and remember those sweet little dreams
play all night and remember the treasure that we're meant to be |

| Lyrics: |
we held title to our freedom
in another land
no call for other reasons
we held the plan
these hands have done many things
they built these wings to try
of course a vote was cast
"indeed&am p;quot; i cried
on our word it did begin
to settle in our minds
settling our minds
precious little chance
take us there
precious little chance
ease our minds
before the rising of the sun
when it was done
we'd ride into the night and reach the sky
we'd dream again
of better times
of those we left behind
we'd see the end
we'd claim the prize
for which so many died
precious chance
precious little chance
led through the streets
our shadows followed
and would not retreat
entering those walls
no history's complete
without its sorrows
forced to believe
tomorrow would come
tomorrow would come
good news on the horizon
so far from home
victory in our sights
carefully crafted
one piece at a time
so far to go
shadows in the night
to be captive no more
these hands have done many things
they built these wings to fly
on the tender wings of freedom
peace always on our minds
truth be told we couldn't bear to face another day
without these wings
i longed to see you
to hold you and to tell you it would be all right
i lived without you
through it all you were my one desire
when rescue reached the gate
the dawn of our return set my heart in flight
little chance
precious little chance
always there
if these hands could
they'd speak of the moment you reached out again
how they leaped to the love in your touch at long last
i tribute our cause for the power we drew from back then
fight for it again
if that's what it meant
if that's what it meant
good days and better times
simply amazing
these wings have paid the price and
these hands have sacrificed so
we need never repeat that triumph
that we need never repeat that truimph
we need never repeat
there's a chance
a precious little chance
precious little chance |

At least a little less Largo than usual, anyways. A well known tune I've learned to play on the steel-string because I prefer the tone.
Ok OK I learned it from tab. I was looking to beef up my cover list and this one showed up. |

| Lyrics: |
I've been chasing the blues away
making room for a brighter day
that's just what I do when you're on my mind
I could cry if I wanted
be hurtful and haunted
but through it all I'd rather think of you
Weary shadows of yesterday
can enter my world again
that's just how it is when you're not in mine
I could hide if I wanted
as if I'm forgotten
but through it all I'd rather think of you
I'd rather think of you
chase away the blues
Now I'm ready for you my friend
to lighten my heart again
that's just how I feel when you come to mind
I could run if I wanted
turn away and be taunted
but through it all
I'd rather think of you
I'd rather think of you
chase away the blues
I could cry if I wanted
be hurtful and haunted
but through it all I'd rather think of you
I'd rather think of you
chase away the blues
chase away the blues
I'd rather think of you
chase away the blues
chase away the blues |

| Lyrics: |
You can lead a horse to water
but you can't make him drink
You can teach a man oughta
but you can't make him think
Talk about the child
Learn about the fall
You and I
You can run but you can't hide
or wish it all away
The fox is in the henhouse now
and there's a price to pay
Talk about the man
Holding all the power
On the animal farm
There's a cold wind 'round the main house and
the cattle raise a cheer
and the hired hands sing praises while
a frost is growing near
Talk about the man
holding all the power
on the animal farm
You can read to the children
what they don't need to hear
all the while the man with the gun
is trembling with fear
Learn about the men
holding all the power
on the animal farm
There's a cold wind 'round the main house and
the cattle raise a cheer
and the hired hands sing praises while
a frost is growing near
Talk about the man
holding all the power
on the animal farm
You and I
You and I
You and I |

They'll Learn
by Brian Dondo © Mar 2006
they'll learn about the troubles in the proper time
they'll take what's coming good as news
by then a memory
will fill the view
by then the same as me and you x2
understand my fears/tears as I try! x2
by then a memory
will fill the view
by then the same as me and you
no kinder blessings to the ones we leave
peace from the anger whence it grew
by which such measures
we were confused
will by forgotten as they choose
understand my fears/tears as I try! x2
by then a memory
will fill the view
to be forgotten as they choose
they'll learn about the terror in the proper time
all that we did and what was used
what to our liking
what made us turn
what all we hoped we could achieve
understand my fears/tears as I try! x2
by then a memory
will fill the view
by then the same as me and you
under which measures
we were confused
by then the same as me and you
they'll learn about Bin Laden in the proper time |

Oh, I just wanted to say something positive. Turns out I did something Popsy at at the same time. Wouldn't mind a chance to go back and rework the lead but its what I've got for now. |

| Lyrics: |
I could tell a story but I'd rather seek some truth
not so easy but worth a try
I could stir up trouble but I'd rather serve a smile
that's all that's called for
all I need
I could chase rainbows or start one of my own
starting from my heart
to where it lands
from my heart leading home
I could be a stranger but I'd rather take a chance
bring peace to a troubled world
I could run from danger but I'd rather clear a path
one step closer to that pot of gold
I could chase rainbows or start one of my own
starting from my heart
to where it lands
from my heart leading home
I could cast a shadow but I'd rather shed some light
hope that the clouds will clear
I could conjour nightmares but I'd rather build a dream
for you and me
I could chase rainbows or start one of my own
starting from my heart
to where it lands
from my heart leading home |
