Lyrics
Haven’t written a thing
Got nothing new
Flipping through the catalog
It’s all been used
Reaching for a cover
More than I’d like
Losing my voice
On the edge of a knife
Now my fingers won’t finger
My hands aren’t fast
Can barely strum and
Keep up with the band
I’m beginning to feel
How the old timers felt
Thoughts escape me
No matter how loud I yell
The sound of my youth
Has changed so much
Would roar like a lion
More than I should
Now I’m struggling
To hit the note
Make it through a set
Just take me home
cause my fingers won’t finger
My hands aren’t fast
Can barely strum and
Keep up with the band
I’m beginning to feel
How the old timers felt
Thoughts escape me
No matter how loud I yell
Now what you hear
Is all I have left
The approach and timbre
They’re all out of step
I don’t feel so good when I
Step on the stage
My tobacco smile and
Sinew are strained
People think touring
Is glamorous
But it’s mostly grueling
And hazardous
But the record label and
The bank don’t care
Debts are due
And the road is my fare
Though my fingers won’t finger
My hands aren’t fast
Can barely strum and
Keep up with the band
I’m beginning to feel
How the old timers felt
Thoughts escape me
No matter how loud I yell
Soon my guitar
Will rest in its case
Never again to be
Resuscitated
It won’t be remembered and
No one will care
Timeless progressions
Lyrics of thin air
But the songs it played
The melodies of despair
Are all for the taking
Get them out of here
cause my fingers won’t finger
My hands aren’t fast
Can barely strum and
Keep up with the band
I’m beginning to feel
How the old timers felt
Thoughts escape me
No matter how loud I yell
