Topic: I Had To Run

Don't think I've put this one up before.

I have chords for it and will put them up eventually. (Looks like our building project will be coming in 2 or 3 weeks late. It was supposed to finish last week - but there are always problems !!!)

I Had to Run

I had to run,
Cos you were crowdin' out the sun
You weren't the one
And I couldn't lie

I couldn't talk about the songs,
Cos you would just get it wrong
And so I had to fly.

You had me nailed,
Bang to rights, my twisted tales
Unraveled on the ground
And I couldn't lie.

I couldn't stay,
I'd no pennance card to play.
I'd no shriven heart,
And I couldn't lie.

I left the stage,
Fled the hard words and the rage.
All I do is write,
And I couldn't lie.

"Don't play what's there, play what's not there." Miles Davis

Re: I Had To Run

Good lyrics stransongs,

I left the stage,
Fled the hard words and the rage.
All I do is write,
And I couldn't lie.

Short, sharp, but deep. Id like to hear the recording.

Ask not what Chordie can do for you, but what you can do for Chordie.
