A Star Is Born – Paul Brandt
Album: A Paul Brandt Christmas
Written by: Paul Brandt
Intro: G D/F# Em D C D
Christmas t[D/F#]ime again
The perfect end, to a not-so-perfect year
At last it’s here
Hustle [D/F#]bustle to and fro
>From store to store, to get one more
Of whatever is in style this year
On the [D/F#]marquis sign
At 5 and 9, the latest movie shows
And it starts to snow
Children [D/F#]look into the sky
To see if reindeer really fly, who knows
But when it comes down to this season
Above it all there’s still a reason
To just look up
Chorus:
A sta[D/F#]r is born tonight
Come [D/F#]to make things right
Angels singing, anthems ringing
Glory [D/F#]to the King
A star is born tonight
Silent [D/F#]holy night
Heaven’s sacred light shines all around
And joy resounds
In manger [D/F#]hay the baby
Jesus came to seek and save the lost
Until they’re found
Peace on earth a new beginning
He’s the gift that keeps on giving, to all of us
CHORUS
G D/F# C D (x2)

Cry If You Want To – Paul Brandt
Album: Small Towns And Big Dreams
Written by: Casey Scott
Intro: E Esus E C#m B (x2)
Cry if you want to, I won’t tell you not to
I won’t try to cheer you up, I’ll just be here if you want me
There’s no use in keeping a stiff upper lip
You can weep you can sleep you can loosen your grip
You can frown you can drown and go down with the ship
You can cry if you want you
Don’t ever apologize venting your pain
It’s something to me you don’t need to explain
I don’t need to know why I don’t think it’s insane
You can cry if you want to
The windows are closed the neighbors aren’t home
If it’s better with me then to do it alone
I’ll draw all the curtains and unplug the phone
You can cry if you want to
Instrumental: E C#m A B E C#m A B E
You can stare at the ceiling tear at your hair
Swallow your feelings and stagger and swear
You can show things and throw things and I wouldn’t care
You can cry if you want to
No I won’t make fun of you I won’t tell anyone
I won’t analyze what you do or you should have done
I won’t advise you to go and have fun
You can cry if you want to
When it’s empty and ugly and terribly sad
I can’t feel what you feel but I know it feels bad
I know that it’s real and it makes you so mad
You can cry
Cry if you want to, I won’t tell you not to
I won’t try to cheer you up, I’ll just be here if you want me
To be near you
Outro: (use the intro, then instrumental progression)

A Little In Love
Paul Brandt Outside The Frame
I’m really kind of bad at hedging my bet’s
Straddlin’ the fence justa’ get my feet wet
It’s sorta’ like me to jump on in
To see if I sink or swim
So maybe I’m a fool for talking this fall
But it’s all for you or nothing at all
Too late for a little in love I’m all the way in
CHORUS:
Ain’t no kinda sorta maybe
When I’m holdin’ you baby
Halfway ain’t near enough
Every waking minute
Got my heart and soul in it
No I can’t be just a little in love
No such thing as a little in love [D A E first timeA]
Now this is high wire walking
But I don’t need a net
Parachute jumpin’ ain’t pulled the cord yet
No turnig back now I’m going all the way down
CHORUS
I might learn the hard way that ‘s the chance I take
Knowing there’s no such thing as a little heartache
BREAK: 2X
CHORUS
No I can’t be just a little in love
No such thing as a little in love (pause)
I can’t be…No such thing as a little in love(4X) .

Intro:
A D A E (x2)
Verse 1:
Pulled down that cardboard box from the attic
The one with the letters from you
Put on those old records while I was at it
The ones that we fell in love to
Thought we were over what a crazy notion
I should have realized
I’d lose the fight against this flood of emotion
Welling up from deep inside
Chorus 1:
There’s not a dry eye in the house tonight
Just a raging river of heartache and pride
There’s not a memory that doesn’t cut like a knife
Of me letting [G/F#]you just walk out of my life
Every teardrop is a visible sign
Of me missing you coming out
There’s not a dry eye in the house

Verse 2:
Every picture of when we were together
Tear stained and falling apart
Chances I didn’t take, regrets and mistakes
I know them all by broken heart
Chorus 2:
There’s not a dry eye in the house tonight
Just a raging river of heartache and pride
There’s not a memory that doesn’t cut like a knife
Of me letting [G/F#]you just walk out of my life
Every teardrop is a visible sign
Of me missing you coming out
E D(Instrumental)
There’s not a dry eye in the house
[G/F#]
Repeat Chorus 1:
There’s not a dry eye in the house tonight
Just a raging river of heartache and pride
There’s not a memory that doesn’t cut like a knife
Of me letting [G/F#]you just walk out of my life
Every teardrop is a visible sign
Of me missing you coming out
There’s not a dry eye in the house

Outro: (repeat x2 fade out)
Not a dry eye in the house tonight
Every teardrop

Chorus :
Shotgun, everybody get in for the
Long run, don?t know where were goin? but the
Outcome comes with a little bit of trust.
Lets go, following whatever way the
Wind blows flying with our hands out of the
Window we didn?t even see the dust.
Verse
See how far we get driving straight ahead
Getting lost it didn?t seem to matter much
All we had was time and a yellow line
Looking back we didn?t even see the dust

Intro D A G D A
Me and Virgil best of friend
brothers ‘til the very end
made a pact one sunny afternoon
down by cold pepper creek
Fishing holes, skippin’ rocks
down the railroad tracks we’d talk
about girls and cars and hopes and dreams
the way our lives would be
and we swore we’d never change
and it would always be the same.
Virgil met the Holy Ghost
a little younger than most
at the gilappi pentacostal
tent revival halter call
Everyone in town was there that day
Virgil gave his soul away
they were praising as I waited
outside the gospel hall
And we swore we’d never change
but it would never be the same
Cause it was later on that year
the winter that our mama died
when I told Virgil I don’t wanna hear
about love and peace inside
cause if this God you know is good
how can he allow the pain
life’s been hard enough
so why would I want to be born again
The other night me and Virgil spoke
he travels with the Holy Ghost
holding tent revivals
he’s out to seek and save
Virgil says he’s been set free
by Jesus dying on the tree
but I’m not sure what I believe
my questions still remain
Virgil says that when he prays
he asks the Lord that I’d be saved
I guess some things never change

Yeah! – Paul Brandt
Album: Outside The Frame
Writers: Paul Brandt/Steve Rosen
Intro: Switch back and forth from E and E7
(there are a lot of little lead variations going on in the intro but I’m pretty sure it’s all E based)
My heart’s been beatin’ faster
Does it mean that I’m in love
I just can’t get enough
Of your smile I’m flyin’ higher now
Oh baby can’t you see, what you mean to me
Chorus:
Do I want ya, do I love ya
Do I think the whole world of ya
Do I know that I’m a lucky man
Do I go to hold ya, need to squeeze ya
Feel my head reel when I see ya
Wonder does this mean I got it bad
(no chord) E
Yeah! yeah
You turn to walk my way
And it sends shivers down my spine
Happens every time
Like a waterfall keeps flowing
I’m over the top, babe I just can’t stop
Chorus:
Do I want ya, do I love ya
Do I think the whole world of ya
Do I know that I’m a lucky man
Do I go to hold ya, need to squeeze ya
Feel my head reel when I see ya
Wonder does this mean I got it bad
(no chord) A B C D (X2)
Yeah!
Yeeeeeeeeeeaahh…oh

I’m fed up with my work,And the boss is a jerk and
It feels like I’m wasting my time
In a dead end job, I’m having to rob
Peter to pay Paul a dime
Why don’t we jump in my car, Just to see how far
This old beat up rambler will drive
And trade it all in for the
Taste of tequila and lime and
Warm sunny beaches
Follow the wind where it blows
Tall palm trees greet us
Blue ocean waving hello
You could be my senorita
Oh and I’ll never let you go
Drinking cold margueritas
On the warm sunny beaches
In Mexico
Every sunny day
We could laugh at the way
We used to live nine to five
In a hammock-swing
We’ll forget everything
Nothing but love on our minds
And after siesta
We’ll have a fiesta
And party until morning-time
And when the sun comes up
we’ll be singing out ah ah ah

Intro: G Em C D (x2)
If you could see deep into my heart, feel what I’m feelin’
It’s like I have become a part of history
The greatest story ever told, your love has me believin’
Loving you will be my legacy
And you can trust, I’ll remain true
And all because of you
Chorus:
I want to live with my eyes open
When I’m down never quit hopin’
Keep the faith, keep the fire
Raise the bar a little higher
But most of all when all is said and done
And I stand at Heaven’s door
Loving you is what I want to be remembered for
Every road we travel down I promise I’ll stay right beside you
Do my best to be the man you need me to be
I don’t have to change the world or even feel the need to try to
Loving you that’s enough for me
With all I have, for all my life
For you it’s not a sacrifice
CHORUS

But most of all when all is said and done
And I stand at Heaven’s door
Loving you that’s what I want to be remembered for
