Legendary Lyrics
[Intro]
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
[Verse 1]
Who are you and who am I
To think that we could ever fly?
It don't pay to even try
Work, get paid, and just get by
Sons of sons, bricks on bricks
What's broken you don't try to fix
'Round here, there ain't no whys and ifs
You don't pick up what you can't lift
[Pre-Chorus]
I raise my hands up to the sky
Don't need more to tell me I'm alive
[Chorus]
Got what I want 'cause I got what I need
Got a fistful of friends that'll stand up for me
Right where I am is where I wanna be
Friday night comes around like a song
"Sweet Caroline," and we all sing along
Got my brown-eyed girl, and she believes in me
Legendary
[Verse 2]
I know this town like the back of my hand
Every crack in the sidewalk tells me who I am
"Live and you love" is the law of the land
These are our dreams, that's where we stand
[Pre-Chorus]
Raise my hands up to the sky
Don't need more to tell me I'm alive
[Chorus]
Got what I want 'cause I got what I need
Got a fistful of friends that'll stand up for me
Right where I am is where I wanna be
Friday night comes around like a song
"Sweet Caroline," and we all sing along
Got my brown-eyed girl, and she believes in me
Legendary
[Post-Chorus]
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
[Bridge]
Who are you and who am I
To think that we could ever fly?
[Chorus]
Got what I want 'cause I got what I need
Got a fistful of friends that'll stand up for me
Right where I am is where I wanna be
Friday night comes around like a song
"Sweet Caroline," and we all sing along
Got my brown-eyed girl, and she believes in me
Legendary
[Post-Chorus]
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Legendary
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
We Made It Look Easy Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We would laugh 'til we cried
Gettin' drunk, gettin' high
When we didn't know how
We were chasing the dawn
Gettin' lost in a song
Tryna figure it out
[Pre-Chorus]
Sometimes the things you want ain't what you need
Sometimes you know a dream is just a dream
But we
[Chorus]
We made it look easy
We made it look easy
We were broke-down cars chasin' shootin' stars (ooh, ooh, ooh)
We were full of seventeen
And we made it look easy
Didn't we?
[Verse 2]
Look at us, blood on blood
Same today as it was
Been a hell of a ridе
Jersey shore covеr bands
Couple friends in the stands
On a Saturday night
[Pre-Chorus]
Sometimes the things you want ain't what you need
Sometimes you know a dream is just a dream
But we
[Chorus]
We made it look easy
We made it look easy
We were broke-down cars chasin' shootin' stars (ooh, ooh, ooh)
We were full of seventeen
And we made it look easy
Didn't we?
[Post-Chorus]
Didn't we?
Didn't we?
[Bridge]
Jersey shore cover bands
Couple friends in the stands
On a Saturday night
[Chorus]
We made it look easy
We made it look easy
We made it look easy
We were broke-down cars chasin' shootin' stars (ooh, ooh, ooh)
We were full of seventeen
And we made it look easy
Didn't we?
[Post-Chorus]
(We made it look easy)
Didn't we?
(We made it look easy)
Oh, didn't we?
(We made it look easy)
Didn't we?
Waves Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I pour another glass, got to get some sleep
Pictures of the past rollin' over me
Big moon on the rise, comes to read my mind
When you're runnin' from yourself
There's no good place to hide
[Pre-Chorus]
Tide is risin', and I'm ridin'
[Chorus]
Waves
They take me down, no one here gonna save me now
Waves
They knock me off my feet
Waves
Now I understand, I see her face, I see her hand
And she waves, then fades away from me
[Verse 2]
We madе love and war
Got too far from the shore
Thought you wеre wavin', you were drownin'
Our footprints in the sand
Water through my hand
I just can't wrap my arms around you
[Pre-Chorus]
Tide is risin', and I'm ridin'
[Chorus]
Waves
They take me down, no one here gonna save me now
Waves
They knock me off my feet
Waves
Now I understand, I see her face, I see her hand
And she waves, then fades away from me
[Bridge]
Put our boat out on the river
Never made it to the sea
I thought we were bein' reckless
You thought we were bein' free
Now I dream we're in the ocean
And I'm sinkin' as you drift away from me
Tide is risin', and I'm ridin'
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Waves
They take me down, no one here gonna save me now
Waves
They knock me off my feet
Waves
Now I understand, I see her face, I see her hand
And she waves, then fades away from me
She waves, then fades away from me
Seeds Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's a deep crack in the sidewalk
Near the park bench on my street
If you don't trip, you'll walk by it
There's a whole world we don't see
[Pre-Chorus]
You don't have to fix what is broken
You only get better at copin'
The road don't always know where it's goin'
We keep rollin' and rollin' and rollin'
[Chorus]
We're seeds tryin' to find our place in the weeds
Bustin' through the cracks in the street
We keep reachin' for light, reachin' for light
We're seeds, even if we fall like the leaves
Bustin' through the cracks in the street
We keep reachin' for light, reachin' for light
[Verse 2]
There's a sadness in the seasons
Like the friends who come and go
The heartbreak, the glory
Each writin' their story
We'll never get to know
[Pre-Chorus]
Be happy for the tears that you're cryin'
The cracks are where we let all the light in
Put yourself out there in the open
Just keep growin' and growin' and growin'
[Chorus]
We're seeds tryin' to find our place in the weeds
Bustin' through the cracks in the street
We keep reachin' for light, reachin' for light
We're seeds, even if we fall like the leaves
Bustin' through the cracks in the street
We keep reachin' for light, reachin' for light
[Guitar Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
Be happy for the tears that you're cryin'
Cracks are where we let all the light in
Put yourself out there in the open
Just keep growin' and growin' and growin'
[Chorus]
We're seeds tryin' to find our place in the weeds
Bustin' through the cracks in the street
We keep reachin' for light, reachin' for light
We're seeds, even if we fall like the leaves
Bustin' through the cracks in the street
We keep reachin' for light, reachin' for light
[Instrumental Outro]
The People’s House Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Come in and leave your mind open
It's time we let love in
Mother, Father, I am broken
Barely breathin', but I'm hopin'
There's forgiveness for my sins
[Verse 2]
I had a dream last night
And in that dream, I lost my sight
Life left me deaf, dumb, and blind, woke up to realize
We're still asleep with open eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
We are buildin' this house of love
Buildin' this house, buildin' this house
[Chorus]
This is the people's house
From sea to shinin' sеa
The Rocky Mountain built these walls
Thеse halls are our city streets
No wreckin' ball is gonna knock it down
Nobody's gonna come to steal the keys
This is the people's house
The house of you and me
[Verse 3]
Time for the turnin' of the page
It's time to say goodbye
Old ways have changed
No crime to look out for each other
Father, mother, sister, brother
Can't keep fightin' one another
[Pre-Chorus]
We are buildin' this house of love
Buildin' this house, buildin' this house
[Chorus]
This is the people's house
From sea to shinin' sea
The Rocky Mountain built these walls
These halls are our city streets
No wreckin' ball is gonna knock it down
Nobody's gonna come to steal the keys
This is the people's house
The house of you and me, yeah
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
I wasn't born a man of privilege
But I'm privileged just the same
No rain will wash away the stain
No truth can hide us from the shame
Until we all believe in change
[Pre-Chorus]
We are buildin' this house of love
Buildin' this house, buildin' this house
[Chorus]
This is the people's house
From sea to shinin' sea
The Rocky Mountain built these walls
These halls are our city streets
No wreckin' ball is gonna knock it down
Nobody's gonna come to steal the keys
This is the people's house
The house of you and me
[Outro]
This is the people's house
Walls of Jericho Lyrics
[Chorus]
Make some noise, strike up the band
Pull the paint off of the ceilin'
Sing down the walls of Jericho
One more time, with feelin’
[Verse 1]
I went walkin' through the valley
Arrows flyin' overhead
Heaven told me, "Boy, be patient
Take the long way ’round instead"
[Pre-Chorus]
You've come too far to turn back now
Let me show ya how the walls come crumblin' down
[Chorus]
Make some noise, strike up the band
Pull the paint off of the ceilin'
Sing down the walls of Jericho
One more time, with feelin'
[Post-Chorus]
(Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na-na-na)
[Verse 2]
Drop your shield and lay your sword down
Your weapons are your voices
You will know the war is over
When the weary soul rejoices
[Pre-Chorus]
You've come too far to turn back now
Let me show ya how the walls come crumblin' down
[Chorus]
Make some noise, strike up the band
Pull the paint off of the ceilin'
Sing down the walls of Jericho
One more time, with feelin’
[Post-Chorus]
(Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na-na-na)
[Bridge]
Wake the echo, call the thunder
Tell them we’ve only just begun
No amen, no hallelujah
This is a song for everyone
[Chorus]
Make some noise, strike up the band
Pull the paint off of the ceilin'
Sing down the walls of Jericho
One more time, with feelin’
One more time, with feelin', boys
Long as we're still breathin'
Sing down the walls of Jericho
One more time, with feelin’
[Post-Chorus]
(Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na-na)
I Wrote You a Song Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When these hands won't strum and I can't find the chords
And my voice don't wanna sing
When my feet say dance, but I can't find the floor
Will you just lie here with me?
[Pre-Chorus]
Will your eyes catch mine, then linger too long?
Will you still let me bring you your tea?
When your mind starts to wander, can I come along?
Is there someplace that you'd rather be?
[Chorus]
I wrote you a song, almost afraid to sing it
How could it ever be beautiful enough?
I can't give you the ocean or the sky so blue
The wonders of thе world, they don't compare to you
I did the only thing I know how to do
[Post-Chorus]
I wrotе you a song
I wrote you a song
[Verse 2]
If I brought you flowers, in a couple of days
The petals would all fall away
To give you forever, for worse or for better
Something that won't ever fade
[Pre-Chorus]
I wrote you a song, now that it's done
It's simple what I wanna say
This scribbled love letter
We wrote it together
I promise my heart's on the page
[Chorus]
I wrote you a song, almost afraid to sing it
How could it ever be beautiful enough?
I can't give you the ocean or the sky so blue
The wonders of the world, they don't compare to you
I did the only thing I know how to do
[Post-Chorus]
I wrote you a song
I wrote you a song
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
I wrote you a song, now that it's done
It's simple what I wanna say
[Chorus]
I wrote you a song, almost afraid to sing it
How could it ever be beautiful enough?
I can't give you the ocean or the sky so blue
The wonders of the world, they don't compare to you
I did the only thing I know how to do
I wrote you a song
[Post-Chorus]
I wrote you a song
I wrote you a song
Living in Paradise Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You and me been on some ride
Held off the night 'til the sunrise
Saw the world through a child's eyes
Been in love for a long time
You and me tore the walls down
And built them up in a new town
I used to sing for the whole crowd
Now, every song is for you, now
[Pre-Chorus]
Castles may crumble
And fall to the sea
[Chorus]
Yeah, we're livin' in paradise
Yeah, we're livin' in paradise
[Verse 2]
Seasons come and the seasons go
We planted seeds and we watched them grow
We wrote the book on the highs and lows
We figured out what we didn't know
You give me faith when I'm losing hope
We may have bent but we never broke
The rain can fall and the wind will blow
The sun'll shine anywhere we go
[Pre-Chorus]
I can't remember
Before you and me
[Chorus]
Yeah, we're livin' in paradise
Yeah, we're livin' in paradise
Summer's gone, it's been a long September
Nothin' matters, long as we're together
Yeah, we're livin' in paradise
[Bridge]
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive
From the embers, we will rise
And we'll light up the sky
[Chorus]
Yeah, we're livin' in paradise
Yeah, we're livin' in paradise
Summer's gone, it's been a long September
Nothin' matters, long as we're together
Yeah, we're livin' in paradise
[Outro]
Livin' in paradise
Livin' in paradise
My First Guitar Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Got my hands around her neck, aw
But it's done with respect, aw
I've had a few, but no other
Has the love of my mother
[Chorus]
I'm in love with my first guitar
I'm in love with my first guitar
[Verse 2]
Baby looks the way she feels, aw
And it almost seems surreal, aw
She'll make you glad that you're alive
When she kicks into overdrive, aw
[Chorus]
I'm in love with my first guitar
I'm in love with my first guitar
[Pre-Chorus]
The cardboard case and her starburst finish
One power chord, an' I'm right back in it
Playin' old KISS records in my folks' backyard
Seventeen years old, I'm a rock 'n' roll star
[Chorus]
In love with my first guitar
I'm in love with my first guitar
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
She's the only one who knows the way I feel
She's thе only one who knows the way I feel
[Pre-Chorus]
The cardboard casе and her starburst finish
One power chord, an' I'm right back in it
Playin' old KISS records in my folks' backyard
Seventeen years old, I'm a rock 'n' roll star
[Chorus]
(Ah, ah, ah) In love with my first guitar
(Ah, ah, ah) I'm in love with my first guitar
(Ah, ah, ah) In love with my first guitar
(Ah, ah, ah) I'm in love with my first guitar
[Guitar Solo]
Woah-oh-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh-oh, huh!
[Outro]
I'm in love with my first guitar
I'm in love with my first guitar
Legendary (demo) Lyrics
[Intro]
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
[Verse 1]
Who are you and who am I
To think that we could ever fly?
It don't pay to even try
Work, get paid, and just get by
Sons of sons, bricks on bricks
What's broken you don't try to fix
'Round here, there ain't no whys and ifs
You don't pick up what you can't lift
[Pre-Chorus]
I raise my hands up to the sky
Don't need more to tell me I'm alive
[Chorus]
Got what I want 'cause I got what I need
Got a fistful of friends that'll stand up for me
Right where I am is where I wanna be
Friday night comes around like a song
"Sweet Caroline," and we all sing along
Got my brown-eyed girl, and she believes in me
Legendary
[Verse 2]
I know this town like the back of my hand
Every crack in the sidewalk tells me who I am
"Live and you love" is the law of the land
These are our dreams, that's where we stand
[Pre-Chorus]
Raise my hands up to the sky
Don't need more to tell me I'm alive
[Chorus]
Got what I want 'cause I got what I need
Got a fistful of friends that'll stand up for me
Right where I am is where I wanna be
Friday night comes around like a song
"Sweet Caroline," and we all sing along
Got my brown-eyed girl, and she believes in me
