By my latest musical addiction...Shinedown. These guys have been around for a few years but are relatively new to me. I like the balance of the power behind the riffs and vocals with the depth of the lyrics. This particular song (which I'm learning on the guitar) is about the lead guy bailing out of his native Tennessee to pursue his rock and roll dreams. In retrospect, a great call by him.
FYI, they did an amazing cover of the previous song of the day.
My eyes are open wide
By the way I made it through the day
I watch the world outside
By the way I'm leaving out today
I just saw Haley's Comet she waved
Said "Why you always running in place?"
Even the man in the Moon disappeared
Somewhere in the Stratosphere
Tell my mother,
Tell my father
I've done the best I can
To make them realize
This is my life
I hope they understand
I'm not angry,
I'm just saying
Sometimes goodbye
Is a second chance
Please don't cry one tear for me
I'm not afraid of what I have to say
This is my one and only voice
So listen closely, it's only for today
I just saw Haley's Comet she waved
Said "Why you always running in place?"
Even the man in the Moon disappeared
Somewhere in the Stratosphere
Tell my mother,
Tell my father
I've done the best I can
To make them realize
This is my life
I hope they understand
I'm not angry,
I'm just saying
Sometimes goodbye
Is a second chance
Here is my chance
This is my chance
Tell my mother,
Tell my father
I've done the best I can
To make them realize
This is my life
I hope they understand
I'm not angry,
I'm just saying
Sometimes goodbye
Is a second chance
Sometimes goodbye
Is a second chance
Sometimes goodbye
Is a second chance
