The Hits

I never listened to hurtin songs, but Im listenin now
Since youve been gone sad songs are all they play
The suns going down on music town and whats killing me
Is everywhere I turn its another number one for me

(chorus)
Chiseled in stone, help me hold on
It was almost like a song
Born to lose, am I blue
Ill always love you
Since youve been gone
The hits just keep on comin all night long

I could be in some bar or alone in my car doin just fine
Till the DJ comes on and plays a song
That sends shivers up and down my spine
Then out of the blue I start thinkin of you and the good love we had
Tell me how come every song that I hear has to be slow and sad

(repeat chorus)
Just you and I, dont close your eyes
Im so lonesome I could cry
One long day, life turned her that way
He stopped lovin her today
Since youve been gone
The hits just keep comin all night long

Can I have this dance, my your looking pretty

Is there something wrong, did he leave you hurting

I don’t mean to pry, but that tear in your eye

Gave you away

If you don’t want to talk, we’ll keep it quiet

But sometimes a heartache, hurt worse if you hide it

I think there’s a chance, one slow dance

Might ease the pain

You have the right to remain silent

Anything that you say, as I hold you against me

Will forever be a secret between us two

I’ve been wanting you, but you didn’t know it

And now that he’s gone at last I can show it

If your heart is tired for the rest of your life

Lay your love on me

So many times my eyes have held you

Tonight please give my arms that chance

If you don’t feel the need for conversation

We’ll just let our hearts talk while we dance

(Key change)

You have the right to remain silent

Anything that you say, as I hold you against me

Will forever be a secret, between us two

I’ve been wanting you, but you didn’t know it

And now that he’s gone at last I can show it

If your heart is tired, for the rest of your life

Lay your love on me

If your heart is tired, for the rest of your life

Lay your love on me

Tab notation: /slide

He spent his days with horses and his nights with Rosalee
He spent his pay on whiskey that was made in Tennessee
As I was growing up he spent a lot of time with me
When Id ask him about women he’d just grin
He’d say son I know horses like the back of my hand

Chorus:
He’d say some were born to run
Some will stomp you just for fun
And some have got the devil in their eyes
There’s some that you can trust
Some will leave you in the dust
And the wild ones that shake you up inside
But you’ll always remember the ride

Like him Ive rode some horses
Some were fast and some were slow
I’ve known my share of women
I’ve seen them come Ive seen them go
The horses I could handle but the women got me throwd
Now i smile when I remember that old man
Because he knew more than horses like the back of his hand
