Heaven is for the weak at heart
And those who never were as smart as me
But I would trade all that I believe
And keep no trick card up my sleeve
Just to know the angels hold you in their arms tonight
I was a good baby, I slept all through night
My mother remembers my eyes were like hers
When noone remembers do the dying embers
Say goodnight? Say goodnight
A screen door bangin' in the wind
Through the quiet night you come crashin' again
Just like new it's never faded
It's a game we play my jaded little brain and I
In a dream well a light could fire
I look down on youfall down? outside
My hearts desire could not be sated
To your own child you have traded
An eye for an eye
Heaven is for the weak at heart
And those who never were as smart as me
But I would trade all that I believe
And keep no trick card up my sleeve
Just to know the angels hold you in their arms tonight

[C] There's a little black train that's coming, coming
down the track
[F] You gotta ride that little black train
And it [C] ain't gonna [G] bring you [C] back
[C] You may be a barroom gambler, cheat your way through
life
[F] You can't cheat that little black train
Or [C] beat this [G] final [C] ride
[C] You silken barroom ladies, dressed in your worldly
pride
[F] You gotta ride that little black train
And it's [C] coming [G] in [C] tonight
[C] Your million dollar fortune, mansion glittering wife
[F] You can't take it with you
When the [C] train rolls [G] in to- [C]night
Get ready for your savior, fix your business right
You gotta ride that little black train
That's coming in to- [C]night
There's a little black train that's coming, coming down
the track
You gotta ride that little black train

Whiskey is not evil when it's sitting on a shelf
Whiskey is not evil when it's sitting on a shelf
I'm as sweet as I can be when I'm home all by myself
A shotgun never shot no one when it's hanging on the wall
A shotgun never shot no one when it's hanging on the wall
I got itchy fingers and you got knees to crawl
I got a picture in my mind
Fighting like a mad fish on the wrong end of the line
Just beneath the surface silver lightning flashes shine
I've got a picture in my mind
Salt water is no danger with your feet on solid ground
Salt water is no danger with your feet on solid ground
You can cry yourself a river, but it don't take much to drown
I got a picture in my mind
Fighting like a mad fish on the wrong end of the line
Just beneath the surface I can see it clear somehow
Don't talk to me, darlin, can't you see I'm gone right now?

Flat hand, open palm
Your mouth was screaming, your eyes were calm
Flat land, 23rd Psalm
Little Bo Peep, your sheep done gone
Flat hand to leave no trace
Mark where the nail went, left a scratch across your face
Flat land, glittering strand
Lover? s angels banished from the sand
No eyes shine brighter
To the flailing, failing fighter
Who once held above her head
A glowing trembling lighter
No heart pounds harder to the sinking, drinking martyr
Who trembled on the bank
As her last dream boat sank
Beneath the deep and sleepless water
Holy Mary, hold the phone
I want a little baby that? s all my own
Hold the line, hold me tight
I got a hole in my arm and I can? t get it right
Holy flesh, howlin? bones
Run off and left me, all alone
Hopped up boy, hothouse frail
I got a hole in my arm and I know, I? m bound to fail
Blood of my blood is what you are
No wise man? s gift sent from afar
Blood of my blood flows through your veins

I've been good, and I've been good for nothing
I had it bad for something seems like a long time ago
And the dirt beneath my nails is not from some field of
flowers
Sown by the April showers and what they may or may not
bring
I always get lucky in the spring
I have been good for nothing
Loose lips are bound to sink ships
And many times I've watched my own self drown
Clinging fast to my lucidity
Like a life raft that's always sinking down
One big drink and then another
Pull my head down far beneath the waves
Where I'm living like a mermaid decked in stolen jewels
From the drowning men I've saved
I've been good, and I've been good for nothing
I had it bad for something seems like a long time ago
And the dirt beneath my nails is not from some field of
flowers
Sown by the April showers and what they may or may not
bring
I always get lucky in the spring
I have been good for nothing
Black crows break and scatter wide
The buckshot blast soaring out of sight
Clouds of heat and dust that rise up from the ground
On a slow and gasping flight
I'm bound to think about my brother
When August sucks the colors from the air
And Kudzu vines make tangled monsters
Of the trees where we first learned to play fair
Forgive and forget are words that never slid across my
tongue
Revenge like a fleeting Christmas morning I knew when I
was young
Put the toys back in their boxes
Let me tear the ribbons off them just once more
Inside my little box of bones a ray of light shines
Where I'm slowly keeping score
I've been good, and I've been good for nothing
I had it bad for something seems like a long time ago
And the dirt beneath my nails is not
From some field of flowers
Sung by the April showers and what they may or may not
bring
I always get lucky in the spring
I have been good for nothing

My history surrounds me
And it's closing in around my bed
And all I have known
Has turned to sticks and to stones
But these words are wandering/a dream/would ring in my
head
I've got you paper for ten
Not the kind tradition meant
But the kind that says
I'm walking out that door
And my heart breaks in two
A little for me and a little for you
Still this thing
Is just the thing I've got to do
For so long I was on my own
Seeking shelter from what I've known
Like the last leaves of the fall's last embrace
Waiting for it all to drop
Like a big new year's ball
With just a past and a song for the lost
I've got you paper for ten
Not the kind tradition meant
But the kind that says
I'm walking out that door
And my heart breaks in two
A little for me and a little for you
Still this thing
Is just the thing I've got to do
Now the glass has filled with sand
I look down and don't know my own hands
I thought that surely the answers would be revealed
We'd know it'd all been for the better
The hurt's past like a forgotten winter
But I'm haunted by these words instead
When I say it
I've got you paper for ten
Not the kind tradition meant
But the kind that says
I'm walking out that door
And my heart breaks in two
A little for me and a little for you
Still this thing
Is just the thing I've got to do
Still this thing is just the thing that I've

I thought that I could make it
I thought that I could get by
With the right brothers at the wrong time
And that they never, just plain never, was gonna fly
You thought that you were gonna shake it
You thought that you were so sly
With a couple of rich friends behind your vaseline lens
And your hand on the shunt, leave the bastard dry
When I forget, when I can't remember I
Call on someone who knows me
Someone who knows me, someone who knows how I feel
Someone who knows me, someone who can show me
How I come out on top of this deal
Up to the highest star, down to the hotel bar
To find someone that knows me
We thought that we were gonna fake it
We thought we'd go on living a lie
But it turns out oftentimes the fire burns out
Long before the ghosts have said goodbye
When I forget, when I can't remember I
Call on someone who knows me
Someone who knows me, someone who knows how I feel
Someone who knows me, someone who can show me
How I come out on top of this deal
Up to the highest star, down to the hotel bar
To find someone that knows me
Up to the highest star, down to the hotel bar

You were waiting for your chance, it wasn't coming
You were waiting for your chance, it finally came
Did they catch you standing still, were you thinking
about running
Did they know you were the ones who hated evil more
than pain
Just an old photograph left to show
White roses fall in the snow
Bursting into flower red roses grow
Where white roses lay broken in the snow
You could have lived to be old without trying
Just your children to remember your name
Beautiful flowers are beautiful dying
When you died for true love you didn't die in vain
Just an old photograph left to show
White roses fall in the snow
Bursting into flower red roses grow
Where white roses lay broken in the snow
So easily you make me cry
Like pouring rain tearsdrops fall from my eyes
But there's no virtue in crying and no virtue in trying
To deny I wouldn't stand by the tracks and never see
the trains
Just an old photograph left to show
White roses fall in the snow
Bursting into flower red roses grow

If I didn't come home every day smelling like fried
eggs
If I didn't have those veins poppin' out all over my
legs
If I had my hair done up real nice, if I had some
clothes that weren't too tight
Would you still be comin' home drunk in the middle of
the night?
I believe it's all a joke but I don't think it's funny
There's a man at table five and he's calling me honey
Some people are born too late, some people are born too
soon
Some people are born to die chokin' on their silver
spoon
Maybe money can't buy everything
It looks like I'm never gonna know for sure
Maybe money can't buy happiness
Well neither can just being poor
Maybe money can't buy everything
It looks like I'm never gonna know for sure
Maybe money can't buy happiness
Well neither can just being poor
Some people are born with luck, some people are born
without it
Some people are born with faith, some are born to doubt
If I didn't go to bed afraid about some bills that'll
never get paid
I wouldn't be down at the laudromat watchin' my work
clothes fade
I wouldn't be down at the laudromat watchin' my work

My old drunk friend, it's good to see you again
[ Every time you walk in I should run the other way
My old drunk friend, you're lookin' kinda thin
I won't ask where you've been, you never want to say
I'll buy you a drink when I get into town
And we'll go out walking 'till our boots are run down
We'll walk through this town where all the alleys are
haunted
Though the streets are deserted these ghosts remain
undaunted
And you're laughing louder in my ear with every bottle
of beer
My old drunk friend, it's good to see you again
Every time you walk in I should run the other way
My old drunk friend, you're lookin' kinda thin
I won't ask where you've been, you never want to say
I should have moved to New York City, but I never was
that cool
I just languished in the Midwest like some old romantic
fool
And the streetlights shine down on the bottles we have
broken
'Till the road is paved with diamonds from a thousand
lost love tokens
And my logic just seems more clear with every bottle of
beer
My old drunk friend, it's good to see you again
Every time you walk in I should run the other way
My old drunk friend, you're lookin' kinda thin
I won't ask where you've been, you never want to say
My old drunk friend, we watch the moonlight grow dim

I wanna walk with you, talk with you all night long
And there's no better time than tonight
When I get you under the stars above
Put your lips to mine with your kiss of fire. Oh yeah
Just to be with you baby tonight is my one desire
I want to date with you would be great with you baby
tonight
When I get you into my arms tonight everything's gonna
turn out right
Put your lips to mine with your kiss of fire. Oh yeah
Just to be with you baby tonight is my one desire
Well all the time I waisted baby be my steady date
I want to make up for lost time. Tonight I just can't
wait
Put your lips to mine with your kiss of fire. Oh yeah
Just to be with you baby tonight is my one desire
Well all the time I waisted baby be my steady date
I want to make up for lost time. Tonight I just can't
wait
Put your lips to mine with your kiss of fire. Oh yeah
Just to be with you baby tonight is my one desire
Well all the time I waisted baby be my steady date
I want to make up for lost time. Tonight I just can't
wait
Put your lips to mine with your kiss of fire. Oh yeah
Just to be with you baby tonight is my one desire
Just to be with you baby tonight is my one desire
