Who You'd Be Today and When I Get Where I'm Going
END

Here I am going to put some song lyrics, hope you like them.

Windfall

By: Son Volt

Now and then it keeps you running
It never seems to die
The trail's spent with fear
Not enough living on the outside
Never seem to get far enough
Staying in between the lines
Hold on to what you can
Waiting for the end
Not knowing when
May the wind take your troubles away
May the wind take your troubles away
Both feet on the floor, two hands on the wheel,
May the wind take your troubles away
Trying to make it far enough, to the next time zone
Few and far between past the midnight hour
Never feel alone, you're really not alone...
Switching it over to AM
Searching for a truer sound
Can't recall the call letters
Steel guitar and settle down
Catching an all-night station somewhere in Louisiana
It sounds like 1963, but for now it sounds like heaven
May the wind take your troubles away
May the wind take your troubles away
Both feet on the floor, two hands on the wheel,
May the wind take your troubles away

Don't Follow
By Alice In Chains
 
Hey, I ain’t never coming
Home
Hey, I’ll just wander my
Own road
Hey, I can’t meet you here tomorrow
Say goodbye don’t follow
Misery so hollow

Hey you, you’re livin’
Life full throttle
Hey you, pass me down that
Bottle, yeah
Hey you, you can’t shake
Me round now
I get so lost and don’t
Know how
And it hurts to care, i’m
Going down

Forgot my woman, lost my
Friends
Thinks I’d done and where
I’ve been
Sleep in sweat the mirrors
Cold
See my face it’s growin’
Old
Scared to death no reason
Why
Do whatever to get me by
Think about the things i
Said
Read the page it’s cold
And dead

Take me home

If You Could Read My Mind
By: Gordon Lightfoot

If you could read my mind love, what a tale my thoughts could tell.
Just like an old time movie about a ghost from a wishing well.
In a castle dark or a fortress strong with chains upon my feet, you know that ghost is me.
And I will never be set free as long as I'm a ghost that you can't see.

If I could read your mind love, what a tale your thoughts could tell.
Just like a paperback novel, the kind that drugstores sell.
When you reach the part where the heartaches come, the hero would be me but heroes often fail.
And you won't read that book again because the ending's just too hard to take.
I'd walk away like a movie star who gets burned in a three way script, enter number two.
A movie queen to play the scene of bringing all the good things out in me,
but for now love, let's be real.
I never thought I could feel this way and I've got to say that I just don't get it,
I don't know where we went wrong but the feeling's gone and I just can't get it back.

If you could read my mind love, what a tale my thoughts could tell.
Just like an old time movie about a ghost from a wishing well.
In a castle dark or a fortress strong with chains upon my feet, but stories always end.
And if you read between the lines you'll know that I'm just trying to understand
the feelings that you lack.
I never thought I could feel this way and I've got to say that I just to get it,
I don't know where we went wrong but the feeling's gone and I just can't get it back.

Carefree Highway
By: Gordon Lightfoot

Picking up the pieces of my sweet shattered dream, I wonder how the old folks are tonight.
Her name was Ann and I'll be damned if I recall her face, she left me not knowing what to do.
Carefree highway, let me slip away on you, carefree highway, you seen better days,
the morning after blues from my head down to my shoes.
Carefree highway, let me slip away, slip away on you.

Turning back the pages to the times I love best, I wonder if she'll ever do the same.
Now the thing that I call living is just being satisfied with knowing I got no one left to blame.
Carefree highway, got to see you my old flame. Carefree highway, you seen better days,
the morning after blues from my head down to my shoes.
Carefree highway, let me slip away, slip away on you.

Searching through the fragments of my dream-shattered sleep,
I wonder if the years have closed her mind.
I guess it must be wanderlust or trying to get free
from the good old faithful feeling we once knew.
Carefree highway, let me slip away on you, carefree highway, you seen better days,
the morning after blues from my head down to my shoes.
Carefree highway, let me slip away, slip away on you. Let me slip away on you,
carefree highway, got to see you my old flame. Carefree highway, you seen better days,
the morning after blues from my head down to my shoes.
Carefree highway, let me slip away, slip away on you.

Still Remain
Written In Memory Of Tracy Bond By: Tim Bond

Your flame has smothered
Lights have dimmed
A life so pure
Fails to be
There is no more time
I took it all for granted
If you were still here
We'd make the best of it;
 
Brother now you may be gone
I will never be the same
Brother now you may be gone
But our memory's still remain
 
Four became three
How can this be
The beast has forsaken
But not only me
Why am I so angry
Why can't I see
I couldn't have stopped it
It's the way it had to be
 
Brother now you may be gone
I will never be the same
Brother now you may be gone
But our memory's still remain

Angel's Wings
By: Mike Ness and Social Destortion

You say you're down on your luck
hey baby, its a long, long way up
hold back now, hold back your fears
you say you're really down and out
and you feel like there's no way out now
let go now let go of your tears some more

How many times have you asked yourself
is this the hand of fate that I've been dealt?
you're so disillusioned this can't be real
and you can't stand now the way you feel

I don't care about what they say
I won't live or die that way
tired of figuring out things on my own
angel's wings wont you carry me home

[Chorus:]
And when you're down on your luck
hey baby, its a long, long way up
hold back now, hold back your fears
and when you're really down and out
and you feel like there's no way out now
let go now let go of your tears some more

[Repeat Chorus]

I triumphed in the face of adversity
and I became the man I never thought I'd be
and now my biggest challenge, a thing called love
I guess I'm not as tough as I thought I was

I don't care about what they say
I'm gonna marry you some day
go ahead and wake up, its a brand new day
Angel's wings gonna carry you away
Angel's wings are going to carry me away
Angel's wings are going to carry us away

Freebird
By: Lynard Skynard

 
If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
For I must be travelling on, now,
'Cause there's too many places I've got to see.
But, if I stayed here with you, girl,
Things just couldn't be the same.
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now,
And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows, I can't change.

Bye, bye, its been a sweet love.
Though this feeling I can't change.
But please don't take it badly,
'Cause Lord knows I'm to blame.
But, if I stayed here with you girl,
Things just couldn't be the same.
Cause I'm as free as a bird now,
And this bird you'll never change.
And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows, I can't change.
Lord help me, I can't change

My Way
By: Elvis Presley
 
And now the end is near
So I face the final curtain
My friend, I'll say it clear
I'll state my case of which I'm certain
I've lived a life that's full
I've traveled each and every highway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
Regrets, I've had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exception
I planned each charted course
Each careful step along the byway
Oh, and more, much more than this
I did it my way
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you know
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall
And did it my way
I've loved, I've laughed and cried
I've had my fails, my share of losing
And now as tears subside
I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that
And may I say, not in a shy way
Oh, no, no not me
I did it my way
For what is a man, what has he got
If not himself, then he has not
To say the words he truly feels
And not the words he would reveal
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way

These are some songs that Tracy liked.
