Easy (featuring Natasha Bedingfield)
(Duet with Natasha Bedingfield)
We broke up
yeah, it’s tough
most guys would’ve been crushed
Wastin’ their time
Wonderin’ where they went wrong
No way, not me
Hey, I’m doing just fine
I’m not afraid of movin’ on, it’sEasy…going out on a Friday night
Easy…every time I see her out
I can smile, live it up
The way a single guy does
But what she, what she don’t know
Is how hard it is to make it look so
EasyThe truth is
That I miss lyin’ in those arms of his
But I don’t ever let it show
I laugh and I act like
I’m having the time of my life
as far as he knows, it’sEasy…goin’ out on a Friday night
Easy…everytime I see him out
I can smile, live it up
The way a single girl does
But, what he, what he don’t know
is how hard it is to make it look so
Easy
Oh, it’s easyOh, it’s easy…goin’ out on a Friday night
Back to Music
Oh, it’s easy…every time I see him out
I can smile, live it up
Forget about the way it was
But what she
Oh what he don’t know

Is how hard it is to make it look so…easy
Looks so easy -
Yours If You Want It
Written by Andrew Dorff, Jonathan Singleton
There’s one more sip in this bottle of wine
A lonely star hangin’ in the sky
With a wish left on it
And it’s yours if you want it
And this wildflower from the neighbor’s yard
A real slow dance in the moonlight dark
This hand in my pocket, oh baby, just call it
‘Cause it’s yours if you want it, andChorus
Every bit of love left in this
Beat up, banged up, scarred up heart
That’s been waitin’ on a girl like you
And I know it ain’t much
But it comes alive with every touch
Every kiss already feels like you own it
Baby, it’s yours if you want itHalf of this rickety front porch swing
Every word of every song I sing
My jacket when it’s cold
Oh baby, don’t you know
You got a place to lay your head
On the other side of my empty bed
And it’s just made for fallin’
And it’s yours if you want it
It’s yours if you want itRepeat Chorus
It’s yours if you want it
Every dollar, every dime, every drop of rain
Every single thing I could beg, steal, or borrow
Every yesterday and tomorrow
Well, every grain of sand on the beach
Every blade of grass under our feet
Baby, your name is written on it
And it’s yours if you want it, andRepeat Chorus
Oh, oh
Back to Music
I swear every dollar, every dime, every drop of rain
Every single thing that I could beg, steal, or borrow
Baby, your name is written on it
Baby, it’s yours if you want it -
Why Wait
What do you say girl we do something crazy
Quit putting it off, you know what I’m saying
It ain’t like it ain’t gonna happen
Forever’s a given
It’s already written
Who we kidding baby, c’mon
The stars can’t line up any straighter
Let’s do it now and think about it laterWhy wait another minute
For something we should’a done yesterday?
I know a little church with a preacher who
Could hook us up right away
Love don’t need a reason
Baby I don’t see how I could love you
Anymore than I do today
So why waitNow I love your mama, let’s save her some trouble
And your daddy won’t mind if we save him a bundle
Girl it just so happens
That ring that you wanted
Well guess what, I bought it
It’s in my pocket baby c’mon
Let’s get it done let’s get it on your left hand
This is me, girl, poppin’ the questionWhy wait another minute
For something we should’a done yesterday?
I know a little church with a preacher who
Could hook us up right away
Love don’t need a reason
Baby I don’t see how I could love you
Anymore than I do today
So why waitLet’s do something crazy
‘Cause crazy’s what you make me
Why wait another minute, wait another minute,

I know a little church with a preacher who could
hook us up right away
Love don’t need a reason
Baby I don’t see how I could love you
Anymore than I do today

I Like The Sound Of That
Written by M. Trainor, S. Mooney, J. Fraisure
I love hearing that shower turn on
Bet there’s nothing but a towel on you
You sing along with the Motown bumpin’
But they ain’t got nothing on youI don’t wanna hear the coffee pouring
A goodbye kiss, then lockin’ the door yeah
Sounds like leaving youChorus
It’s a little too loud on the highway
I wanna pull back in you’re driveway
It’s way too quiet at my place
Wanna come on over, come on over
I just wanna hear that ringtone
I like it turned up when you’re blowing up my phone
Wanna here you say come on over, cause when you tell me to come on over
I like the sound of thatMmm mmm mmm
I like the sound, I like the sound of that
Mmm mmm mmm
I like the sound, I like the sound of thatLove the sound of the thunder roll in
It makes you move a little closer to me
And girl I bet that your neighbors hate us
Cause we could laugh all night and never sleepPop another bottle, let the wine keep pouring
Take another sip, and lock the door
Wanna stay right here with youWe can worry bout the world in the morning
Light up a candle, lock the door
Wanna stay right here with youWe can worry bout the world in the morning
Pour another drink, and lock the door
Wanna stay right here with youPop another bottle, keep the champagne pouring
Take another sip, and lock the door
Wanna stay right here with youRepeat Chorus
Mmm mmm mmm
I like the sound, I like the sound of that
Mmm mmm mmm
I like the sound, I like the sound of thatTurn your radio on

Riot
Written by Jaron Boyer, Sara Haze
I’d be riding in a cab going downtown
Finding faces I know in a big crowd trying drink the pain away
I’d be staying out all night never going home
Boy you’d know I’d lose all control if I lost youChorus
There would be a riot
Breaking up my heart I’d try to fight it
I could go out every night but I’d be lying
If I said I could live and breathe without you
There’d be a lot of lonely
Wishing and praying that you would hold me
I would do most anything baby if only
You would come back to me come back to me
There would be a riotI’d be checking out my phone every minute
Waiting around for it start ringing
And praying it would be you
I don’t know what I’d doRepeat Chorus 2X
There would be, there would be a riot
Back to Music
Breaking up my heart, I’d try to fight it
There would be a riot

Rewind
Written by Ashley Gorley, Chris Destefano, Eric Paslay
Wish I could reach up and re set than sun
Reverse these wheels, go back and re pick you up
Went by so fast, oh so sweet
Make me wanna remake a memory
Wish I had me a time machine, oh I’d…Chorus
Float the moon back up in the sky
Put a cork back into that sweet red wine
Put your midnight hair back up
So you can let it fall one more time
Untouch your skin
Unkiss your lips then kiss em again
So good, so right
This is one night I’m wishin’ I could rewindI’d turn back that radio dial reopen your door
Try to talk Tom Petty into givin’ us an encore
Respin you around replay that sound
Of you laughin’ when we hit the ground
I can see it now, how bout we…Repeat Chorus
I wanna refall and refly
Relive this nightRepeat Chorus

Here Comes Goodbye
I can hear the truck tires
Comin’ up the gravel road
And it’s not like her to drive that slow
And nothin’s on her radio
Footsteps on the front porch
I hear my doorbell
She usually comes right in
Now I can tell –Chorus
Here comes goodbye
Here comes the last time
Here comes the start of every sleepless night
The first of every tear I’m gonna cry
Here comes the pain
Here comes me wishin’ things had never changed
And she was right here in my arms tonight
But here comes goodbyeI can hear her say “I love you”
Like it was yesterday
And I can see it written on her face
That she had never felt this way
One day, I thought I’d see her
With her daddy by her side
And violins would play
“Here Comes The Bride” but –Repeat Chorus
Why’s it have to go from good to gone
Before the lights turn on
Yeah, and you’re left alone, all alone
But here comes goodbyeRepeat Chorus

Take Me There
There’s a place in your heart nobody’s been
Take me there
Things nobody knows, not even your friends
Take me there
Tell me about your mama, your daddy, your hometown
Show me around, I want to see it all
Don’t leave anything outChorus
I wanna know everything about you then
And I want to go down every road
You’ve been
Where your hopes and dreams and wishes live
Where you keep the rest of your life hid
I want to know the girl behind that pretty stare
Take me thereYour first real kiss, your first true love
You were scared
Show me where you learned about life,
Spent your summer nights
Without a care
I wanna roll down Main Street, the back roads,
Like you did when you were a kid, what made you who you are
Tell me what your story isRepeat Chorus
Yeah, I wanna know everything about you
Back to Music
Yeah, everything about you baby
I wanna go down every road you’ve been
Where your hopes and dreams and wishes live
Where you keep the rest of your life hid
I want to know the girl behind that pretty stare
Take, me, take me, take me there
Oh, I wanna roll down Main Street
I wanna know your hopes and your dreams
Take me, take me there-yeah -
I’m Movin’ On
I’ve dealt with my ghosts and I’ve faced all my demons
Finally content with a past I regret
I’ve found you find strength in your moments of weakness
For once I’m at peace with myself
I’ve been burdened with blame, trapped in the past for too long
I’m movin’ onI’ve lived in this place and I know all the faces
Each one is different but they’re always the same
They mean me no harm but it’s time that I face it
They’ll never allow me to change
But I never dreamed home would end up where I don’t belong
I’m movin’ onChorus
I’m movin’ on
At last I can see life has been patiently waiting for me
And I know there’s no guarantees, but I’m not alone
There comes a time in everyone’s life
When all you can see are the years passing by
And I have made up my mind that those days are goneI sold what I could and packed what I couldn’t
Stopped to fill up on my way out of town
I’ve loved like I should but lived like I shouldn’t
I had to lose everything to find out
Maybe forgiveness will find me somewhere down this road
I’m movin’ onI’m movin’ on

Changed
(Gary LeVox, Wendell Mobley, Neil Thrasher)
I came up out of the water
Raised my hands up the the father
Gave it all to him that day
Felt a new wind kiss my faceWalked away eyes wide open
Could finally see where I was going
It didn’t matter where I’d been
I’m not the same man I was thenI got off track I made mistakes
Back slid my way into that place
Where souls get lost lines get crossed
And the pain won’t go away
I hit my knees now here I stand
There I was now here I am here I am
ChangedI got a lot of hey I’m sorry’s
The things I’ve done man that was not me
I wish that I could take it all back
I just want to tell ’em that, tell ’em thatI got off track I made mistakes
Back slid my way into that place
Where souls get lost lines get crossed
And the pain won’t go away
I hit my knees now here I stand
There I was now here I am here I amI’ve changed for the better
More smile less bitter
I’m even starting to forgive myself
Yes I amI hit my knees now here I stand

These Days
Hey baby, is that you
Wow, your hair got so long
Yeah, yeah I love it, I really do
“Norma Jean,” ain’t that the song we’d sing
In the car driving downtown
Top down, making the rounds
Checking out the bands on Doheny AvenueYeah, life throws you curves
But you learned to swerve
Me, I swung and I missed
And the next thing you know, I’m reminiscing
Dreaming old dreams
Wishing old wishes
Like you would be back againChorus
I wake up in teardrops that fall down like rain
I put on that old song we danced to and then
I head off to my job, guess not much has changed
Punch the clock, head for home, check the phone just in case
Go to bed, dream of you
That’s what I’m doing these days
Yeah, that’s what I’m doingSomeone told me after college
You ran off to Vegas
You married a rodeo cowboy
Wow, that ain’t the girl I knew
Me, I’ve been a few places
Mostly here and there once or twice
Still sorting out life but I’m doing alright
Yeah, it’s good to see you tooWell hey girl you’re late
And those planes, they don’t wait
But if you ever come back around
This sleepy old town
Promise me you’ll stop in
To see an old friend
And until then(Repeat Chorus Twice)
I wake up in teardrops that fall down like rain
I put on that old song we danced to and then
I wake up in teardrops that fall down like rain
I put on that old song we danced to and then
I wake up in teardrops that fall down like rain
I put on that old song we danced to and then(Fade)

My Wish
I hope the days come easy and the moments pass slow
And each road leads you where you want to go
And if you’re faced with the choice and you have to choose
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you
And if one door opens to another door closed
I hope you keep on walkin’ ‘til you find the window
If it’s cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile
But more than anything, more than anythingChorus
My wish for you
Is that this life becomes all that you want it to
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small
You never need to carry more than you can hold
And while you’re out there gettin’ where you’re gettin’ to
I hope you know somebody loves you
And wants the same things too
Yeah, this is my wishI hope you never look back but you never forget
All the ones who love you
And the place you left
I hope you always forgive and you never regret
And you help somebody every chance you get
Oh, you find God’s grace in every mistake
And always give more than you take
But more than anything, yeah more than anythingThis is my wish
Back to Music
I hope you know somebody loves you
May all your dreams stay big -
What Hurts The Most
I can take the rain
On the roof of this empty house
That don’t bother me
I can take a few tears now and then
And I just let ‘em out
I’m not afraid to cry every once in a while
Even though goin’ on with you gone still upsets me
There are days every now and again
I pretend I’m okay
But that’s not what gets meChorus
What hurts the most
Was being so close
And havin’ so much to say
And watchin’ you walk away
And never knowin’
What could’ve been
And not seein’ that lovin’ you
Is what I was tryin’ to doIt’s hard to deal with the pain
Of losin’ you everywhere I go
But I’m doin’ it
It’s hard to force that smile
When I see our old friends and I’m alone
Still harder gettin’ up, gettin’ dressed, livin’ with this regret
But I know if I could do it over
I would trade, give away
All the words that I saved in my heart
That I left unspokenNot seein’ that lovin’ you
Back to Music
That’s what I was trying to do
Oooo, Oooo, Oooo – -
Stand
‘Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you’re made of
You might bend ‘til you break
‘Cause it’s all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you’ve had enough
You get mad, you get strong
Wipe your hands, shake it off
Then you stand, then you standLife’s like a novel with the end ripped out
The edge of a canyon with only one way down
Take what you’re given before it’s gone
And start holdin’ on, keep holdin’ onEvery time you get up and get back in the race
One more small piece of you starts to fall into place – yeahYeah then you stand – yeah

Yeah, baby
Woo hoo, Woo hoo, Woo hoo
Then you stand – yeah, yeah -
Life Is A Highway
Whooo umm yeah…
Life’s like a road that you travel on
When there’s one day here and the next day gone
Sometimes you bend, sometimes you stand
Sometimes you turn your back to the wind
There’s a world outside ev’ry darkened door
Where blues won’t haunt you anymore
Where brave are free and lovers soar
Come ride with me to the distant shore
We won’t hesitate
To break down the garden gate
There’s not much time left today[Chorus:]
Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night long
If you’re going my way
I wanna drive it all night longThrough all these cities and all these towns
It’s in my blood and it’s all around
I love you now like I loved you then
This is the road and these are the hands
From Mozambique to those Memphis nights
The Khyber Pass to Vancouver’s lightsKnock me down get back up again
You’re in my blood
I’m not a lonely man
There’s no load I can’t hold
Road so rough this I know
I’ll be there when the light comes in
Just tell ‘em we’re survivors[Chorus]
Gimme gimme gimme gimme yeah
[Chorus]
There was a distance between you and I (between you and I)
A misunderstanding once
But now we look it in the eyeOoooo…Yeah!
There ain’t no load that I can’t hold
Road so rough this I know
I’ll be there when the light comes in
Just tell ‘em we’re survivors[Chorus: (x3)]
Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night long
If you’re going my way
I wanna drive it all night longGimme gimme gimme gimme yeah

Fast Cars And Freedom
Staring at you taking off your makeup
Wondering why you even put it on
I know you think you do, but baby, you don’t need it
Wish that you could see what I see when it’s goneChorus:
I see a dust trail following an old red Nova
Baby blue eyes and your head on my shoulder
Wait, baby don’t move, right there it is
A T-shirt hanging off a dogwood branch
That river was cold but we gave love a chance
Yeah To me
You don’t look a day over fast cars and freedom
That sunset, riverbank, first time feelingYeah smile and shake your head as if you don’t believe me
I’ll just sit right here and let you take me back
Got Cougar up on ten, Little Diddy ‘Bout Jack and Diane
You’re laughing, singing with your feet up on the dash
Remember thatChorus:

Bless The Broken Road
I set out on a narrow way many years ago
Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn’t see how every sign pointed straight to youChorus:
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to youI think about the years I spent just passing through
I’d like to have the time I lost and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You’ve been there you understand
It’s all part of a grander plan that is coming trueChorus:
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to youNow I’m just rollin’ home into my lover’s arms

Come Wake Me Up
(Sean McConnell, Johan Fransson, Tim Larsson, Tobias Lundgren)
I can usually drink you right off my mind
But I miss you tonight
I can normally push you right out of my heart
But I’m too tired to fightYeah the whole thing begins
And I let you sink in to my veins and I feel the pain like it’s new
Everything that we were everything that you said
Everything that I did and that I couldn’t do
Plays through tonightTonight your memory burns like a fire
With every one it grows higher and higher
And I can’t get over it
I just can’t put out this love
I just sit in these flames and pray that you’ll come back
Close my eyes tightly hold on and hope that I’m dreaming
Come wake me upTurn the TV up loud just to drown out your voice but I can’t forget
Now I’m all out of ideas and baby I’m down to my last cigarette
Yeah you’re probably asleep deep inside of your dreams while I’m sitting here crying and trying to see
Yeah wherever you are baby now I am sure that you’ve moved on and aren’t thinking twice about me and you tonightTonight your memory burns like a fire
With every one it grows higher and higher
And I can’t get over it
I just can’t put out this love
I just sit in these flames and pray that you’ll come back
Close my eyes tightly hold on and hope that I’m dreamingI know that you’re moving on
I know I should give you up
But I keep hoping that you’ll trip and fall back in love
Times not healing anything
No baby this pain is worse than it ever wasI know that you can’t hear me but baby I need you to save me tonight
Tonight your memory burns like a fire
With every one it grows higher and higher
And I can’t get over it
I just can’t put out this love
I just sit in these flames and pray that you’ll come back
Close my eyes tightly hold on and hope that I’m dreaming

Banjo
(Tony Martin, Wendell Mobley, Neil Thrasher)
When I lose my smile, when my thoughts get jumbled
When the air and BS get too thick
Can’t take a breath without getting sick
I’ve had enough of this concrete jungleI drop my truck in drive, I pick up my baby
She jumps in with a kiss and a hey
We exit off that old highway
Sometimes you gotta go beyond the pavementYou gotta go deep, way on back
Cross a few creeks and a couple little shacks
You gotta get lost way on out
Crickets and frogs, yeah you’re getting close now
Then you kick it into four-wheel drive when you run out of road
And you go and you go and you go, go, go
Till you hear a banjo, ah there it isIt ain’t on no map and I’m glad it isn’t
Leave the phone and the GPS
Those satellites ain’t found it yet
Got our own little piece of heaven hiddenYeah you gotta go deep, way on back
Cross a few creeks and a couple little shacks
You gotta get lost way on out
Crickets and frogs, yeah you’re getting close now
And you kick it into four-wheel drive when you run out of road
And you go and you go and you go, go, go
Till you hear a banjo, yeahYou gotta go deep, way on back
Cross a few creeks and a couple little shacks
Yeah you gotta get lost way on out
