1. Loving the Highway Man (Written by Andy Prieboy)
CAPO: 4
Intro: 4x
Verse 1:
The wind is a warning
These fields turn to sand
My family will not answer me now..
Chorus:
Damned damned damned I am loving the highwayman
Damned damned damned I am loving the highwayman        
Damned damned damned I am loving the highwayman
{Verse 2:} Don't say where this ring came from
From who's shaking hands
Don't say who lies bleeding for me
{Chorus}
{Verse 3:} There's a hole in the ceiling
These fields turn to sand
My heart is in prison
{Chorus}
{Fade out with Intro chords..}
2. Raise the Dead (Written by Emmylou Harris)
Verse 1:
Hank Williams died when I was five
He sang I'll never get out of this world alive
Now it's been a long time since I was that kid..
And I've seen a lot more than Hank ever did
I've done the down and out of every dark-end dive
But I'll never get out of your love alive
{Verse 2:} Sam Cooke met the woman at the well
She told him that his song was something he could never sell
But I think he knew a change was gonna come
Still he lived to fast and he died too young.
Well dying young I have survived
But I'll never get out of your love alive
Bridge:
I got washed in the blood of Bill Monroe
When he sang about the blues and the body and soul
He believed in a God that could raise the dead
Still it's a mighty dark night to travel he said
I've seen a mighty dark night and I made that drive
But I'll never get out of your live
{Solo}
{Verse 3:} Robert Johnson had a hell hound on his trail
It drove him to the coffin like a hammer and a nail.
It takes a powerful man to carry that load
When you're trying to beat the devil to the old crossroads.
I wrestled the devil lived to testify
But I'll never get out of your love alive.
{D until end..}
3. For A Dancer (Written by Jackson Browne)
CAPO 3
Intro:
Verse 1:
Keep a fire burning in your eyes
Pay attention to the open skies
You never know what will be coming down  
{Verse 2:} I don't remember losing track of you
You were always dancing in and out of view.
I  must've thought you would always be around..
Always keeping things real by playing the clown
Now you're nowhere to be found..
{Verse 3:} I don't know what happens when people die;
Can't seem to grasp it as hard as I try
It's like a song I can hear playing right in my ear..
..That I can't sing I can't help listening..
{Verse 4: I can't help feelin' stupid standin' around
Cryin' as they ease you down
'cause I know that you would rather we'd be dancin'..
..Dancin' our sorrow away (right on dancin')
No matter what fate chooses to play (there's nothing you can do about it anyway)
Chorus:
Just do the steps that you've been shown
By everyone you've ever known   
Until the dance becomes your very own
No matter how close to yours
Another's steps have grown
In the end there is one dance you'll do alone         
{SOLO}
{Verse 5:} Keep a fire for the human race
Let your prayers go driftin' into space
You never know what will be comin' down
{Verse 6:} Perhaps a better world is drawing near
Just as easily it could all disappear
Along with whatever meaning you might've found..
{Bridge:} Don't let the uncertainty turn you around
Go on and make joyful sound
{Chorus:} Into a dancer you have grown
From a seed somebody else has thrown
Go on ahead and throw some seeds of your own
And somewhere between the time you arrive..
..And the time you go
May lie a reason you were alive
But you'll never know...
4. Western Wall (Written by Rosanne Cash)
CAPO 3
Intro: G Em..2x
Verse 1:
I stand here by the Western Wall
Maybe a little of that wall stands inside of us all
I shove my prayers in the crack
I've got nothing to lose no one to answer back
Chorus/Bridge:
All these years I brought up for review
Wasn't taught this but I learned somethin' new
And to answer a distant call
At the Western Wall..
{Verse 2:} I've got a heart full of fear
And I offer it up on this alter of tears
Red dust settles deep in my skin
I don't know where it starts and where I begin
{Chorus/Bridge 2:} It's a crumblin' pile of broken stones.
It ain't much but it might be home.
If I ever loved a place at all
It's the Western Wall             
{SOLO}
{Chorus/Bridge 3:} I don't know if God was ever a man
But if She was I think I understand
Why He found a place to break his fall
Near the Western Wall...
5. 1917 (Written by David Olney)
The strange young man who comes to me
A soldier on a three day spree
He needs one night's cheap ecstasy
And a woman's arms to hide him
He greets me with a courtly bow
And hides his pain by acting proud
He drinks too much and he laughs too loud
How can I deny him.  
Let us dance beneath the moon
I'll sing to you 'Claire de Lune'
The morning always comes too soon
But tonight the war is over
{Verse 2:} He speaks to me in schoolboy French
Of a soldier's life inside a trench.
And the look of death and the ghastly stench.
I do my best to please him..             
{Chorus:} Hold me 'neath the Paris skies
Let's not talk of how or why.
Tomorrow's soon enough to die
But tonight the war is over.      
{Verse 3:} We make love too hard too fast.
He falls asleep his face a mask.
He wakes with the shakes and he drinks from his flask.
I put my arms around him.
{Chorus:} Old world glory old world fame
The whole world's gone gone up in flames.
Nothing will ever be the same
And nothing lasts forever.
{Verse 4:} (Spoken) Oh I'd pray for him but I've forgotten how
And there's nothing nothing that can save him now.
And there's always another with that same funny bow      
(sung) And who am I to deny him?        
{Chorus: French words and lalalalas...hehe sorry not typing it..}
But tonight the war is over
6. He Was Mine (Written by: Paul Kennerley)
You asked me if I've met your baby
I have to say it's been some time now
But it seems like yesterday
Chorus:
He was mine for awhile
We had good times
We went in style
But now he's yours
Treat him kind
Yes I remember well when he was mine
{SOLO}
{Verse 2: You say he means the world to you well
Yes I  can tell.
You make each other happy
I wish you well.
{Chorus}
Outro:
He was mine           
7. Sweet Spot (Written by Emmylou Harris & Jill Cunniff)
Baby when you're down   I'll be around   
I;ll be around            
Baby when you're lost    I'll be your found
I'll be your found
When the night is long
I'll be the crack of dawn
Baby when you take a shot
I'll be your sweet spot
          
{Bridge: Just play A -- Baby when you're falling off your feet}
{Verses and Chorus...goes like this until end:}
I'll be your sweet spot
I'll be you sweet spot
I'll be you sweet spot
I'll be you sweet spot
I'll be you sweet spot
I'll be you sweet spot          
8. Sisters of Mercy (Written by Leonard Cohen)
CAPO 6                
Verse 1:
Oh the sisters of mercy
They are not departed or gone    
They were waiting for me  
When I thought that I just can't go on          
And they brought me their comfort  
And later they brought me this song       
Oh I hope you run into them
You who've been travelling so long          
{Verse 2:} Yes you who must leave everything that you cannot control.
It begins with your family but soon it comes around to your soul.
Well I've been where you're hanging I think I can see how you're pinned:
When you're not feeling holy your loneliness says that you've sinned.
{Verse 3:} Well they lay down beside me I made my confession to them.
They touched both my eyes and I touched the dew on their hem.
If your life is a leaf that the seasons tear off and condemn
They will bind you with love that is graceful and green as a stem.
{Verse 4:}             
When I left they were sleeping I hope you run into them soon.
Don't turn on the lights you can read their address by the moon.
And you won't make me jealous if I find that they've sweetened your night:
We weren't lovers like that and besides it would still be all right
We weren't lovers like that and besides it would still be all right.
9. Falling Down (Written by Patty Griffin)
CAPO 1
Verse 1:
Falling down
I'm falling down
I need to sleep
Come a long long way
No time for weepin
No time for weepin
Quiet now I'm falling down
I'm falling down
{Verse 2:} I have heard a million tales  
I have told a million more
Some of them                                
Must have been true
But I don't know     
Anymore                   
I'm falling down.         
{SOLO}                  
Bridge:
Do your dance on my head
Heavy steps of the dead
Everything the snow  surrounds
Falling falling falling falling
Fallingfalling down
I'm falling down
10. Valerie (Written by Patti Scialfa)
CAPO 4
Verse 1:
To the east the factories stand like fire-
-breathing dragons against the sky
And from their throats a scarlet river burns-
-itself into smoky lullabies
Over neon and fluorescent skies Valerie
{Chorus:}
Can you hear those engines drone
I wanted to go to NewMexico
But I'm stranded-here alone
And once I knew a true love-
It's been -three years since he's gone
And if I could get that feeling back
I'd give up everything I own  
{Verse 2:} Sixteen days since I left Corona and I-
-traveled to this carnival town near Alberndee.
And I rode the coasters there on the fairgrounds
Twisted backbone of a beat that never heals..
And I left some skin on Fortune's wheel Valerie
{Chorus}
Bridge:
Everything's in slow motion now
In this little border town
I've come so close from so far
Just to hide behind these windows here
From the world outside
I watch those cars and trucks raise trails of dust
Down the road as they pass by Valerie...
{Chorus}
Everything I own  
Everything I own  
11. This Is To Mother You (Written by Sinead O'Conner)
Sorry I can't really do this one right now...I'll get to this one at some point :S
12. All I Left Behind (Written by Emmylou Harris Kate McGarrigle & Anna McGarrigle)
CAPO 3                 
Verse 1:
All I left behind should come as no surprise
To me since I fell through the black hole of your eyes
Only little things inconsequential I could say
Of all I left behind with you along the lost highway
Silver earrings in Wichita
Beaded moccasins in Tonapah
But I had you so
I just let them go
{Verse 2:} Flannel shirt I wore to keep me from the cold
When we drove from Boston all the way to Buffalo.
Leather boots I bought so many miles ago.
I took them off to follow you into the Ohio.
Never did my armour feel so thin                
Silk was all I had between me and your skin.
But like Waterloo                        
I lost that too.  
{Interlude -- verse chords over}            
Bridge:
And the golden bracelet with my father's name inscribed
On the back. By the one who loved him all her life
The way I too
Could have loved you
{Verse 3:} The Spanish shawl I put across the broken shade
Of a lamp that lit the room at last night near Coeur d'Alene
Only little things inconsequential I could say
Of all I left behind with you along the lost highway
Of all I behind...
13. Across the Border (Written by Bruce Springsteen)
CAPO 2
  
Verse 1 & 2:
Tonight my bag is packed
Tommorrow I'll walk these tracks
That will lead me across the border
Tommorrow my love and I
Will sleep 'neath auburn skies
Somewhere across the border
{Bridge 1:}
We'll leave behind my dear
The pain and sadness we found here
And we'll drink from the Brazos muddy waters
Where the sky grows gray and wide
We'll meet on the other side
There across the border
{Verse 3 & 4:} For me you'll build a house
High upon a grassy hill
Somewhere across the border
Where pain and memory
Pain and memory have been stilled
There across the border
{Bridges until end:}And sweet blossoms fill the air
Pastures of gold and green
Roll down into cool clear waters
And in your arms 'neath open skies
I'll kiss the sorrow from your eyes
There across the border
(Interlude)
Tonight we'll sing the songs
I'll dream of you my corazón
And tomorrow my heart will be strong
And may the saints' blessing and grace
Carry me safely into your arms
There across the border
For what are we
Without hope in our hearts
That someday we'll drink from God's blessed waters
And eat the fruit from the vine
I know love and fortune will be mine
Somewhere across the border   
Enjoy!
