Cripple Creek
I pulled out my lighter and a dirty cigarette
I thought the worst of my doings, hadn't come to me yet
if loneliness could sing, wouldn't that ring true
I bet the whole wide world would hear it and sing along to the tune
Ah, ooh
Oooh
Ah, ooh
Oooh
Timing sure did tell how mistakes are made
With each lesson learned brings something to the page
If heartbreak had a name, well it'd be Josephine
Yes, I saw her the other day; she burned out in a gleam
Ah, ooh
Oooh
Ah, ooh
Oooh
Well where did my head go when I crossed through Cripple Creek
In search of gold and treasure, and fruition came to be
This loneliness could take me half way to the sea
Oh, but I don't wanna do it without someone next to me
Oooh, Oooh
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh

A Simple Melody
Well I'm taking these strings and I'm writin' words
That will flow right thought to the bottom of the earth like
ABC, gotta tell somebody how I feel
Tried to fight it tried to move ahead but it came full circle when I swapped my bed for a single serving of life at sea
Those skies, opened my eyes
Life ain't easy, yes it's true
We're all just trying to navigate the daily avenues
Find your honey, follow through
And never stop doin', the things you love to do
Little talks turn into rhymes
A simple melody can make a grown man cry or
keep him movin till the break of dawn
They say, "speed it up" or "slow it down"
Fuck em all, I'm gonna make my own sound
send it from my soul right to your heart
Oh, I've at least got to try
Life ain't easy, yes it's true
We're all just trying to navigate the daily avenues
Find your honey, follow through
And never stop doin', the things you love to do
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh

Mnts & Seas
I feel conflicted by the mnts and the seas
The breeze on the water, the tops of the trees
Something that's written just came over me
I feel conflicted by the mnts & seas
My heart found its roots in RMNP
Hit the trail for a weekend or maybe a week
Get lost in my mind, overcome defeat
My heart found its roots with the Rocky Mountain peaks
How will I know where to go
It's been clockwork for years
I'm feelin' a fear
If I don't know where to go
I'll take the globe for a spin
See where it ends
My minds been sayin' head to easterly lands
Get your feet in the ocean and hands in the sand
Face mother nature as best as I can
My heads been sayin' get to easterly lands
How will I know where to go
It's been clockwork for years
I'm feelin' a fear
If I don't know where to go
I'll take the globe for a spin
See where it ends, yeah

Tennessee
Tame is a word I cannot use
To describe the way I've been feelin' about you
Wait for the moment to come and go
Will I know if I am feeling at home away from the gold
Well I tried, I tried
But I'm tired and I'm dry
And we had a lovely parting
But I'm goin', I'm goin'
To Tennessee

Back To You
Do we remember how it felt
Shifting on tiles and everyone to help
And do you recall the way days used to seem like they had it all
Well I'm searchin' the waters
Lookin' left to right, out of sight, here again
And I'm tryin' to find
Where it was that I lost my goddamn mind
Timin' never seemed to be right
Yes, I've been struggling with sweet delights
Travelin' down a one way sunset road
Never stopping, never going
Back to you
Timin' never seemed to be right
Yes, I've been struggling with sweet delights
Travelin' down a one way sunset road
Never stopping, never going
Back to you
Back to you
