lyrics

Solid Gone (capo 2nd fret in F# and partial on 4th 5,4,3)

G -F-C (rocking)
There’s a storm on the horizon coming for everyone.
It’s a long way off, but you know it will come.
No, you can’t stop it, can’t dodge it anyway,
But you can turn around and pretend it’s a nice sunny day. Nice sunny day.

For some it comes with lightning, a crashing hurricane.
Some just go to sleep one night in a gentle rain.
But when their souls rise into that thunderhead
They know they’ve left the living for the dead.

Chorus
D C2 G F-C
When that day arrives when I’ve written down my last song. My last song.
You can’t count on much (brother,sister,honey) but you can count on this.
I’m solid gone. Solid Gone.

For so long I just dig a pit and settled right on in.
I chained myself with payments. I worked with a grin.
Disaster could strike anytime, so I grabbed a little more.
I turned the key in the lock, safe behind that door. Safe behind that door.

Some might call it madness, but it’s not a waste of time
When I take the stories of my life and sing them with a rhyme.
When the best part of your life stays behind the closet door,
You have to ask yourself, Friend, what are you living for. Living for.
chorus

They say you’ve got to be careful. It’s a big, bad world.
Stay away from that whisky. Don’t wink at those girls.
Take your time. Take it easy. Take a little break.
But you better live your life, Sonny, before it’s too late. Before it’s too late

Maybe there’s an answer to the riddle of our time.
What I give out to the world will always be mine.
I can give that tough love. I can give a second chance.
But I’m gonna turn that music up and dance, dance, dance.
Chorus
