Everything But Loving You

8/3/2020

1. i don't wanna do the dishes
i don't wanna sweep the floor
i don't wanna be ambitious anymore
you're the only good news
walking in and out the door
so i'm thinking that i could use
a new plan moving forward

CH
i wanna quit everything but loving you
it's the only thing that i wanna do
cause i'm so good at it
makes me wanna quit
i wanna quit everything but loving you
cause i, i don't have a fucking clue
how to save the world
but i can love my girl
so i'm gonna quit everything but loving you
yes i'm gonna quit everything but loving you

2. i'm not thinking about tomorrow
barely thinking about today
i just wanna keep the sorrow
and the anger and worry at bay
i'm so thankful for my baby
she always knows what to say
so here's to being lazy
and letting love lead the way

Verse: Bm A
Chorus: E D
Bridge: E Bm

are you my friend
are you my enemy
remember when
you used to take good care of me
lately you’ve been
treating me unbearably

ego, ego
please let me know
where did we go off track
ego, ego
you got my brain
do you got my back

are you Jekyll or Hyde
it’s still not clear to me
are you on my side
or just tired of being near to me
are you satisfied
you got another tear from me

we’re gonna have to make things right
you gotta let me have a say
cause we can’t keep having this fight
and i can’t live this way

Verse: C F C G (end on C)
Chorus: F C Am Em F G (end on C)

you had a big heart that bloomed like a flower
you had a smooth voice that sailed like a ship
you had a strong spine built like a tower
you had a sweet smile just like a kid’s

ever yours, ever mine
you taught me how to wait until the scar turns to a shine
ever green, ever blue
the color of my eyes now that they won't be seeing you

i had a hard time when you caught that fever
i had a long cry alone in my car
i had this pipe dream you'd live forever
i got this feeling you did not go far

ever mine, ever yours
our souls outlast the dusty bones of death and dinosaurs
ever long, evermore
on a scale of one to ten, my friend, i miss you 94

Errors and Omissions

Verse: Am C G F
Chorus: F G Dm G // F G F G

and would you rewind
turn back time
at the drop of a dime?
don’t you regret
the things you haven’t done yet?
you were busy making your bed

you wanna rip out the pages
erase the errors, own up to omissions
we’re running round in cages
time-clipped wings that will never feel the wind
the cynics and the sages they both say nothing matters in the end
if all the world’s a stage won’t someone please raise that curtain again?

and is your first fear
how long you have left here?
those pesky headlights come on strong dear
are you afraid
of the life you have not made?
the second hand body slams you in your place

Echo

*co-written with Veronica May

the echo of the past, it lingers in my ear
the rumble of the future, never here but ever near
it's ok to look back it's ok to look on
like the setting of suns and the breaking of dawns

but space can make you close
close can make you far
the place you're missing most
is right here where you are

the voices of the past, they speak but don't say much
the fingers of the future, reaching out without a touch
it's ok to react it’s ok to stay calm
like the flash of the sun on the horizon

Even Roots Change

Capo 1, chord shapes:
Verse: Em Am B7 Em
Chorus: Am Em Am B7

you say your house fell down, you say your foundation cracked
you say you stumbled to the ground, can't get your footing back
you say you're all alone and nothing's set in stone
you say you lost your head, you say you lost your way
you say your moral compass has led you astray
you say you miss the days when you were set in your ways

even roots change, even roots grow
even skyscrapers sway when the wind blows
if nothing ever changed how would we ever know which way to go?
even the earth moves even the river flows
the story's going to end but we don't know how it goes
the greatest part of life is it keeps you on your toes

i say i'm not so sure certainty is everything it's cracked up to be
you say it hurts to change
i say, well, certainly
one day we all will fall like leaves
don't hide behind walls falsely called beliefs
it's not your destiny to drown in flux, achilles
