conscience 03:13
This is your conscience calling These are good intentions gone wrong This is your conscience calling What are you good for, where have you gone? If you could remake all your mistakes and learn from every disaster What are you looking for? What are you after? If you could right all those wrongs, sort out what truly belongs This is your consciousness calling for a halt This is your inner self speaking in tongues One day you'll write a song. One day you'll figure it out This is your inner self letting go Of all your self-doubt. Regaining some control

copper moon 04:52
Am What's a man to do G Got nothin to lose F#m7 But the copper moon F E Keeps him In tune Am I look like hell G Locked in a warm cell F#m7 Hear my bell F E hell I guess I fell Am You look down G From your big tall horse F#m7 Sip my bottle F E stay the course Am Cold bed of dirt G I'm accustomed too F#m7 The finer things F E That you can lose Gm Drink till you drown drown F#m7 Your sorrows down down Gm Ya drink it down down F#m7 Until you drown drown F It's the copper moon C Take another pull G Drain the bottle F Fill your empty soul Burn another smoke C G Go on spin your rope Am You got a mouth for war G I'll burn your name F#m7 You want a little peace F E then stake your claim Am I been torn asunder G What's mine ain't mine F#m7 Raped pillaged and plundered F E You crossed the line Am When i was young G I had the whole world F#m7 Beautiful love F E And two little girls Am In a little bed G Where she use to rest F#m7 Took her last breath F E And her mother left Gm Drink till you drown drown F#m7 Your sorrows down down Gm Ya drink it down down F#m7 Until you drown drown F It's the copper moon C Take another pull G Drain the bottle F Fill your empty soul Burn another smoke C G Go on Spin your rope
