Songs by Andrew Bennett
Enjoy the music. I wrote, performed, and produced all these songs myself. Many of them I'm playing all the instruments and performing all the vocals. It didn't cost me anything to record these so they are free to download and I encourage you to burn them for your all friends.

Lyrics
The Longest Day of Summer Inspired by Tu Fu Written by Robert Andrew Bennett (Verse 1) G I woke up too early got myself to thinking G Em You know the summer days are longer and the windows are drinking up the light Em C It used to be night at this time G You know this city is electric and I’ve tried to make it out to see the dreamers and G Em the screamers shaking their souls on the stage Em C They aint trying to behave (Chorus) D Who knows what tomorrow with bring C I never can predict the next song that I’ll sing Am G And each day I’m asking myself am I going anywhere (Verse 3) There was an old building I used to love to stare It had steel frames and concrete, a city with a mayor inside Getting by on getting by But they tore down the old to build up some new Antique and vintage are just words someone drew just for style They haven’t meant much for while (Second Chorus) End with Em, C (Bridge) Am C And it seems to all go so fast And living slow never made it last for me I got so much to do before I die I’ll fall asleep then, but tonight I’m going to ride Storm clouds come with stories Of once blue skies and glory light on earth But the louder the thunder sounds The brighter the sun shines (Verse 4) I’m wearing the boots once owned by my dad He’d walk them for miles when he had a back like mine Everything wears out with time I got to know the Lord, I’ve been talking to his son But rock and roll seems to keep me on the run Though I’m trying, yes I’m trying D Who knows what tomorrow with bring C I never can predict the next song that I’ll sing Am Em And each day I’m asking myself am I going anywhere Who knows what tomorrow will make I’m just trying to find the path I’m supposed to take Am C x 3 But if the rain washes all them away, (hard retard) G Sweet Lord take me there I pulled out the poems I wrote when I was in love Sneered at them, shrugged at them pretending I was above it all Truth is I’m scared of another fall I just can’t write like that anymore It was a time and a place and a girl that I adored; now she’s gone But I still smile for her in a song
