Crowing Lyrics

contributed by Ryan Houlette
Capo this on the second fret.
verse1
Been waiting to find
you could've been happier given the time
If he'd make up his mind
You'd give yourself to anybody who would cross that line
And it was never a question
He was crowing for repair
You'd give him love and affection
But you couldn't keep him there
verse2
Get over regrets
While you were sleeping with the angels he was under the bed
And the more skin that you shed
The more that the air in your throat will linger
when you call him your friend
And it was never a question
He was crowing for repair
You'd give him love and affection
But you couldn't keep him there
Staring at a cold little hand
Reading fault lines in a shell of a man
You were waiting for a word from above
Wouldn't you know it
No answer ever did come
chorus2
And it was never a question
You were crowing for repair
You'd give him love and affection
But you couldn't keep him there
(End-of-Chorus Riff: -------------------------------|
THis is how I play it........ so if it's wrong... it's wrong:)
A* Fret the 5th
Verse form:
Been waitin to find,
You could of been happier given the time
(repeat same format)
If he'd make up, his mind
You'd give yourself to anybody who would cross that line
And it was never a question
He was crowing for repair
You'd give him love and affection
But you couldn't keep him there
(back to verse form)
Get over, regret
While you were sleepin with angels, he was under the bed
And the more skin, you shed
More that the air in your throat would linger when you call him your
friend
BRIDGE:
Staring, at a cold little hand reading fault lines
Of a shell of a man
You were waiting for a word from above
Wouldn't you know it No answer ever did come
