Gravel n’ Thunder

[Verse 1]
Got these dusty boots
From the last cruel town
Got lost out of pocket
Crimes I can’t write down
Border stamps and bar tabs 
Unfamiliar Match book & a key ring
I try to understand 
Rode to ruin we were travelling 
Each scar is a lesson to remember for the man
[Chorus]
I’m just gravel roads and thunder
Chain smoke is my only fun
Prayer on the tip of my tongue 
when I curse it’s torn asunder ok
Strikes like the lightning
Breaking the witches spell 
Before I get deeper under 
I know I’ll see you in hell because you got to go down with me, gravel and thunder 
Life’s a bitch that bites you when it’s time to feed her
[Verse 2]
She left her necklace in My place 
Cold shine on a bathroom sink
Said
“You love the leaving
Baby mama 
More than you’ll ever love a ring”
Now my phone’s full of faces
I can’t call and I won’t explain
I just pour one for the memories
And one more for the weight of the game
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
No sign of restraint 
I just emptied the bottle
I’ve never been the saint
Life Speeding full throttle

(hey—sing it back to me)
[Chorus with gospel Choir and Hammond organ]
(Sing it back, sing it back!
Just one more time for me)

(gonna go, gonna go down with me)

[Guitar Solo]
[Final Chorus]
[riff modulation up two full steps lead guitar wails, moans and cry’s that turn into uncomfortable shredding to the climax]

(Sing it back, sing it back!
Just one more time for me)
I’m just gravel roads and thunder 
[Guitar Solo]
