I don't have any control over when the song was ready to come.
My soul does that.
My soul.
[Bbm] I put
[Db] the truth that lay upon me, like a Mississippi river [Eb] runs deep [Ebm] and rough.
[Gb]
[Fm] [Bbm] I [Db] don't know what happened.
I was acting on my passion, [Bbm] wearing [Db] ladies' fashion.
[Eb] I wandered [Gb] in the cold.
[Bbm] I think the peace, you come and you gather it along the way.
You have the rocky times.
I was a kid.
I'm still out there floating around and dangling around without anybody to really
[G] I really
didn't have anybody.
[Ab]
You just live life and you make decisions on your own.
I think that's why my career has been up and down and up and down.
It's like, oh, who are you?
What are you?
What do you look like?
What do you sing?
How does that
Who the hell knows?
[Db] You just do it.
You have to live in the moment.
I was acting on my passion.
But I've made peace with my father.
[Ab] I have had [Eb] peace for quite some time.
[Gb] [Bbm] I'm so okay with who I [Db] am and what I am and what happened and my [Abm] past.
[Ab] I'm so okay [Eb] and peaceful.
[Bb]
As honey [Eb] offers gold, [Bb] as a gambler I can't hide my dance as [Eb] a sinner and as a soul.
I knew one thing.
I had to sing.
Fortunately, the turn of the cards presented themselves that way.
No matter what happened, I can guarantee you that I would have [G] been in search of my destiny
to sing no matter what happened with Mom [Bb] and Daddy.
Pardon me if I forget [Eb] even told.
[Gb] You can't hold that against me, [F] man.
I'm on [Bbm] revelation road.
[Db] We lived in the country.
[Bbm] I grew up in [Db] the country.
It was like a 30-minute drive to school every day.
[Bbm] We lived so far in the country the school bus wouldn't go there.
So we had [Db] to drive.
[Bbm] And Mama had to work.
[Db] [Ab] So she dropped us at school and went to [Gb] work.
And then she picked us up from [Ab] school after she [Bbm] worked and we went [Db] home.
So during that time, we sang.
Which one is the bad news [Eb] man?
Which one [Gb] clatters more?
[Bbm] The [Bb] Everly Brothers and the Mills Brothers and harmony type stuff.
And then whatever was current, say, on the radio that we listened to.
We were musical.
I will be to threat your [Bbm] fist.
Hey, to threat your eye.
You [Bb] grow up too young to know you're [Eb] mute.
Unconscious to the choir.
They were really kind of [G] in the Bob Dylan vibe.
Because Daddy was a school [Ab] teacher.
So he was really good with the English language.
[N] So yeah, they were good.
Did you ever think of maybe recording his songs?
No, because they were mostly lyrics and there was not any music to them.
And I don't have any recordings of [E] them.
There's one song of his that I have, but I haven't [Bb] recorded it yet.
[B] [Eb] I may.
I may.
[Gb] Bare feet on the grapple.
[F] We're on [Bbm] Revelation Road.
[Db] [Bbm] [Db]
Revelation [Bbm] [Db] Road.
[Eb] [Gb]
[Bbm]
Life presents itself to you.
[G] You have to be able to accept it.
There's probably a million ways to write that song that wouldn't register to the listener.
So the timing has to be right in my heart.
And the universe has to be open so the words come [C] and the melody can come.
So you and I can talk about that piece of work.
And it not be so overly emotional that we can't get through [N] this.
My soul does that.
My soul.
[Bbm] I put
[Db] the truth that lay upon me, like a Mississippi river [Eb] runs deep [Ebm] and rough.
[Gb]
[Fm] [Bbm] I [Db] don't know what happened.
