The right now song

RIGHT NOW        Verse: em,am,d   Chorus: c,g,d,em

Bird on a wire

Wing of desire

Bark of a dog

Buzz in the night

Violin on fire

White flag out back

Belief is now gone

Always it lives forever

Scarlet cloth veil

Floats like a bell

Water lays so cold

In gravity’s well

Anvil the waste

Of the silent class creed

Sweep up the wind

And wash out the street

Silent hearts howl

In ten thousand men

Flicker and doom

From the broken ghost rooms

All is gone/in the breath without fire

Nobody needs/ your book of silent flowers

And the dancer just wears/ her costume of stars

And the lights they flash/ in the sea from afar

Idle for love

Symbols on my sheet

Ice is melting

Piano wants to be free

Standing in the middle

Of a circle that’s on fire

The hills have eyes

I lost all my desire

Big black bull

Just gored another man

The king of mighty power

Needs someone to command

So many wasted words

Spit away unheard

Who care about the future

When you’re just a tiny bird

That’s Singing, that’s singing

All is gone/ in the breath without fire

Nobody needs your book of silent flowers

And the dancer she just wears/ her costume of stars

And the little lights they flash/ in the sea from afar

Dragged through the ocean shore

Skin and bones, this endless war

Like a gaping hole in blackness

Drawn across the moon

The membrane it peels back

The broken dawn is a crackerjack

Here’s a brand new life

Destined for the mother’s womb

It’s a dark night out

And there’s nobody home

I’m out walking the streets

And I’m always alone

The mist it holds a whale

And the bride she flew

Across the scale

Of the milky way with you

So flip ones wig

And play it real cool

Ill tip my hat

Like death to a fool

Bang it for a week

Yeah I’ll turn the other cheek

I feel like a million

God bless this freak

God bless this freak

All is gone/ in the breath without fire

Nobody needs your book of silent flowers

And the dancer she just wears/ her costume of stars

And the little lights they flash/ in the sea from afar

Right now, right now, right now

The writing on the wall

In honor of the true power in this world and the one to follow

Between the devil and the deep blue sea

Drift song and slow clouds

DRIFT    Key of C    verse F, C, Dm, G ……Chorus Am, G, Dm, F9, G

VERSE

It will be a long time; it will fade away my friend            

Thorns in the dust come back this way again

Roses In the snow, I had it for a little while

There’s gold wheels in the sky, in the now and way back then

I made a boat of solid heaven, but I’m still afraid to die

I have fashioned all my life, from inside these written lines

I’ve got a sword in the fence, and a thorn of blazing rhyme

And I know there’s Gold wheels, spinning way up in the sky

And that is just the way it is, the way my deal goes down

There’s a river rolling right through me, I’m an empty ghost town

As I absently drift, in the mind of the enemies crown

Comes the dark cold wind, bearing down on me within

CHORUS

It will be a long, long time,

Before you can love again

Without earth there is no heaven

This is the only place to make it right

VERSE

Standing here under, the fallen stars of new snow

Above my old empty bottle, a diamond grave down below

I was lost to it all, but now I’m life found

Inside in the circle, of my timeless space sound

Dreaming here singing in cages of dirt

Black hills and all songs and my unquenchable thirst

Indian words like a long white highway

Everything is written in the almanac of the dead

Whispers of the rain-flowers, trucks asleep in my bed

All and nothing dancing, spinning overhead

It’s just winter sadness and the fields of time

Standing here with my back on the line

CHORUS

It will be a long, long time,

Before you can love again

Without earth there is no heaven

This is the only place to make it right

VERSE

Drifting in sight that only now I cannot see

I know the end of the forest lives forever inside of thee

Songs of water and blood, by the sons dying last light

While the fire in the trees, fills up infinite night

I remember when we walked the moon down

And I ripped a blossom from the branch

Then to be swallowed by the places

Where you do not dare to laugh

 Oh but heaven is a heart

That will love you right back

No matter the time

Or if there is something that you lack

CHORUS

It will be a long, long time,

Before you can love again

Without earth there is no heaven

This is the only place to make it right
