  • Fever Dream (Song Sketch)
    I have the Perfect alibi
    I have been Swallowed up by time
    I didn't know enough to notice that the clock had stopped, I guess
    I have the Perfect Alabi
    Don't open up that door
    We don't want to start a war
    We had them stunned into submission 'till the trailer park incident
    Don't open up that door
    I have no reason to complain
    I'm drunk on duty-free champagne
    No place to be I sit and squint into the Blinding sunset
    I have no reason to complain
    But I have to face
    the strange wonderful world
    that I inhabit every day
    It's quite a place
    I'm all alone and wish that
    you could join me here one day
    I don't live here anymore
    I put a note on my front door
    It said I finally found the faith to swim Beneath the current
    I don't live here anymore
    I'm not sure what I meant to say
    I try not to exaggerate
    I won't pretend I knew her well but I could let my guard down
    I'm not sure what I meant to say
    This is all a fever dream
    Riding on a laser beam
    There are a million reasons why I have to wonder what's in store
    This is all a fever dream
    But I have to face
    the strange wonderful world
    that I inhabit every day
    It's quite a place
    I'm all alone and wish that
    you could join me here one day

  • Everything You Dream (Song Sketch)
    Cadd9 C Cmaj7
    Fadd6 F Fmaj7b5 Fadd9
    Memories of your childhood
    drifting through your mind
    Imaging you're flying
    You're flying so high
    So high
    So high
    Running down your street
    Mouth is open wide
    Catching all the raindrops
    As they fall down from the sky
    From the sky
    From the sky
    G
    Then you see a rainbow
    It stretches out so far
    Fadd9
    Dreaming of the future
    So excited that you are
    Cadd9 C Cmaj7
    Alive
    Fadd6 F Fmaj7b5 Fadd9
    Alive
    G Fadd9
    Everything you dream will come to be
    G Fadd9
    All you have to do is wait and see
    Cadd9 C Cmaj7
    You'll see
    Fadd6 F Fmaj7b5 Fadd9
    You'll see
    You're anxious for tomorrow
    So you're turning out the light
    The Light
    The Light
    All the things you want your life to be
    All you have to do is wait and see
    You'll see
    Everything you dream will come to be
    All you have to do is wait and see
    You'll see

  • Gift Of Gab (Song Sketch)
    Em D Am
    Em D C
    Em D
    You don't have much to say
    Am Em
    but you keep on talking anyway
    Em D C
    It's ok I've got nothing else to do
    G Am
    And it helps to pass the time
    F Em
    Keeps my own thoughts from my mind
    C D Em
    And I guess I just like listening to you
    I'm not exactly keeping track
    I fade out then I fade back
    And you don't even notice when I do
    I nod my head and look around
    While you continue to expound
    And you're not even close to halfway through
    D Cadd9 Em/b
    While You talk and talk and talk
    D Cadd9 Em/b B7
    You talk and talk and talk
    No detail is too small
    Am D
    You've got to tell them all
    Am C B7
    you barely have a chance to take a breath
    Am C B7
    And the stories that you tell just never end
    You talk and talk and talk
    You talk and talk and talk
    Sometimes I try to interject
    But too quickly make my point I guess
    Then I'm back to listening to you
    It's funny that I don't complain
    I'm somehow just more entertained
    It's amazing how you do that thing you do
    You talk and talk and talk
    You talk and talk and talk
    Am D
    Though I have got no place to go
    As I sit and watch the winter snow
    I motion for the waiter to bring the check
    And I'll say so long to you my good friend
    While You talk and talk and talk
    You talk and talk and talk
    D Cadd9 B7
    You talk and talk and talk

  • No Excuse (Song Sketch)
    Intro:
    G6/9 A13sus2 C/G 2X
    G
    We were refugees
    Bm
    We were lovers
    C/G
    We were fools
    We were casualties
    We were runaways
    We were ruined
    Dmaj11/A C/G Em A
    I guess that you were hoping I'd become the man i'd never been
    G
    But our destiny
    Bm
    always felt like it was waiting
    C/G
    To begin
    G6/9 A13sus2 C/G 2X
    We'd seen better days
    There were words to say
    We spoke the truth
    You were crying
    I was trying
    It was no use
    I dreamed that when I saw you, you were no one that I knew
    I was sorry
    I could offer
    No excuse
    Instrumental Tag (coronet and oboe on the melody)
    A C/G E
