Hey everyone, it's Jewel.
It's a Sunday here in Texas, and I've been practicing some new songs
Trying to be responsible for the first time in my life and actually [Gb] learn my new songs before I tour
So you don't have to suffer through forgetting the word
But I'll probably still forget the word
But today luckily I have my lyrics out.
Let me get them up
Okay, this is called what you are posted the lyrics the other day that now you cannot [Eb] hear the whole
[Ab]
[Eb]
Driving around [Ab] town
Kind of bored with the windows rolled [Eb] down
See a girl on a bus stop [F] bench dressed to [Ab] draw attention
[Eb] Hoping everyone will stare
[Ab] She don't stand out she thinks you'll disappear [C] wish I could hold a tail or [Ab] show her what she wants
It's [Bb] already there
[Eb] The star is a star [Ab] it doesn't have to try to shine
[F] [Fm] Water will [Ab] fall a bird just knows how to fly
[Eb] You don't have to teach a flower how to bloom [Ab] or light how to fill up a [F] room
[Fm] [Ab]
[Eb]
Good story
Took place at the local VA
Father talking to his dying [Cm] son
[Ab]
[Eb] It's not supposed to be like this [Cm] you can't [Ab] go first I can't handle it
[Bb] Boys said dad now don't you [F] cry?
[C] Remember [Ab] when I was a child what you used [Bb] to tell me?
When I'd ask [Eb] why you'd say gravity is gravity
[Ab] Doesn't try to pull you [Eb] down a
[Bb] [Ab] Stone [D] is a [Ab] stone it can't help but hold its ground
[Eb] Wind just knows how to blow though.
You can't see [Cm] it's [Ab] everywhere like I'll always [Fm] be
[Ab] What you are and what you are [Eb] strong enough
[Fm]
[Cm]
I
[Fm] Give love to others
[Bb] But I give myself him [Fm] I have to tell myself [Cm] in every seed.
There's a perfect plan
[Db]
[Ab]
[Eb] There's a flower doesn't [Cm] have to [C] try
[D] Light is light [Ab] it just knows how to fill a room
[Eb]
Dark is dark
So [C] the stars have [Ab] a place to shine and [D] the tide goes out so it [Ab] can come back in another time
[Eb] Good man makes hello so [Ab] sweet and love is love so it can teach [Fm] us
We already are [Ab] What we
[Eb]
[Fm]
[Eb] [Fm]
[Eb] [Ab] Right
[Eb] Right in [Fm]
there [F] stars in each
[Ab]
[Eb]
[Ab]
[Gb] Kind of messed up one part
