RAIL – (written by Carolyn V. Mill / Reid Jamieson)

Em                            G                   C                               Am
Put your ear to the rail, you can hear my love come down
Em                        G       C                           Am
Where hearts and heroes fail, I won’t be turned around
Am                                   G
Sleepwalking these rails, I let the grass grow long
C                                 Am
Oh my memory fails, and I forgot my song
Em                                     G
Blackberries grow wild, smell of pitch in the sun
C                                   Am
Weeds roll over my mind, and they almost won
Em                          G      
But I said no more, no more, no more,
C                           Am
no more, no more, no more, no more

Put your ear to the rail, you can hear my love come down
Where hearts and heroes fail, I won’t be turned around

INSTRUMENTAL SECTION:   C  D  C  D  C  D  Em  C  Em  C

Tearing up these weeds, blow the smoke in my stack
Sound of steel on steel, and there’s no going back
I got a head full of coal, hear the lightning crack
Light a fire in my soul, and get me back on track

Put your ear to the rail, you can hear my love come down
Where hearts and heroes fail, I won’t be turned around

No more driving this blind, time to throw that switch
Drives a spike in my mind, and makes my fingers itch
You better get on board, or get out of my way
Hauling heavy and slow, but I’m leaving today…

And I said no more, no more, no more,
no more, no more, no more, no more, no more

And I know that I’ve been here before,
And it’s taken its toll on me
But I’m not giving up anymore,
No I’m not giving up on me…

And falling for you,
I’m falling for you
All my answers were right

In the summer school of blue

The summer school of blue
Bflat             F
The summer school of you.

LAST DAY OF THE YEAR (Reid Jamieson)

D                  Am                           G                          Bflat
Time often spends itself  with no concern for mental health.
D               A         Bm                                   Gm  A               D      A
Care how you expend your wealth the last day of the year.
D                  Am                     G                                 Bflat
Longing and looking back, major change there is no lack,
D               A               Bm                           Gm  A               D     
of sacred blessings, heart attacks, the last day of the year.
A                                                               Bm                     F#m               G
Three cheers it’s coming closer, The new beginning You’ve been yearning.
A                                                             Bm                          F#m          G                    A
Forward, keep falling forward. The timing’s right, you shouldn’t fight it, just be delighted.
D                         Am                    G                             Bflat
Leave room for little doubt, a lesson’s learned, a whisper shouted.
D                A              Bm                    Gm  A               D      A
Turn your mistakes inside out the last day of the year.     SOLO (VERSE CHORDS)
A                                                               Bm                      F#m             G

A                                                                          Bm                          F#m       G                A    
Heartstrings are played at midnight; they’re picked apart, in tune or off key. It’s clear can you see?
D                        Am                             G                  Bflat
Push hard with all your might. Our resolution starts tonight,
D              A              Bm                         Gm  A               D     
to find out where self-pity hides. The last day of the year.
Gm  A                   D
The last night of the year.

Holding Out 

(Reid Jamieson/Josh Finlayson)

Bm   G   Bm  G   Bm 
Bm              G
You called to reconcile.
Bm                  D             A    Bm
The time that’s passed us by again.
G           
Although I’m not on trial.
F#m                  Em  A     D
I’ve missed your laughing smile.
Bm                  G
The years have been unkind.
Bm         D         A       Bm            
The loneliness of being wrong.
Bm              G               F#m              Em  A     
And with this loss of time a voice broke into song…
D        C               G         A
If holding out means no one wins.
D          C      G                 A      Em
Then hanging on is where we’ll begin again.
Bm            G
This sorrow weighs me down.
Bm            D              A        Bm
The loss of friends, the loss of life.
Bm         G                     F#m             Em       A     
Can it be turned around? Can we make good in time?
D         C              G         A
If holding out means no one wins
D          C     G                 A      
Then hanging on is where we’ll begin.
D        C             G          A      
The love we gave, the faith we lost.
D           C             G         A          Em
In time we’ll learn how much it cost us now.
Em             A                 C
If leaving is all we have.
C                G          A
I’d go given half the chance
Em       A                     Bm       G   Bm     G   Bm    G   Bm    G   Bm
Only to run right out of room…

Were not unconscious or unclear, I lost my count
Fm                         E             Fm
All this truth, just a fairytale in paperback

I’ll speak to you slowly; I’ll pronounce my doubts
A             E            B
Listen for hopefulness in the grammar and proofread my folly
E                                      A              E
Tenderly press back on my dog-eared page
E
Words can only hope

All this truth, just a fairytale in paperback, so you can fit it in your pocket
Instrumental verse

Where did I lose you? Maybe chapter one?
A            E         B

That was a story that I used to love

Feelings, that come to stay sometimes inside.

Tryin’ to Get to You


D
I’ve been traveling over mountains, Even through the valleys, too
G                                           A
I’ve been traveling night and day, I’ve been running all the way
D
Baby, trying to get to you.
D
Ever since I read your letter where you said you loved me true
G                                           A
I’ve been traveling night and day, I’ve been running all the way

baby, trying to get to you
D7                                G                                          D
When I read your loving letter, then my heart began to sing
G                                               A
There were many miles between us, but they didn’t mean a thing.
D
I just had to reach you, baby, In spite of all that I’ve been through.

I kept traveling night and day, I kept running all the way,
D
Baby, trying to get to you.SOLO VERSE

Well if I had to do it over, that’s exactly what I’d do,

I would travel night and day, and I’d still run all the way,
D
Baby, trying to get to you.
D7                                          G                                               D
Well, there’s nothing that could hold me, or that could keep me away from you
G                                             A
When your loving letter told me that you really loved me true
D
Lord above me knows I love you, It was He who brought me through,
G                                                A
When my way was darkest night, He would shine His brightest light,
D
When I was trying to get to you.
