Heartland

Although i've previously said that I think Von should cover this song, I now, after far too much vino and with the prospect of forthcoming Sisters shows, feel the urge to reproduce the lyrics.

Andrew, please learn and teach whatever jobbing musicians you have playing second guitar for you how to play it:

Love on the rocks
Ain't no surprise.
Just pour me a drink
And I'll tell you some lies.
Got nothing to lose

So you just sing the blues
All the time.

Gave you me heart

Gave you my soul.
You left me alone here
With nothing to hold.
Yesterday's gone -
Now all I want is a smile.

First they say they want you
How they really need you
Suddenly you find you're out there
Walking in a storm.
And when they know they have you
Nothing you can do or say
You've got to leave just get away

We all know the songs.

You need what you need

You can say what you want

Not much you can do
When the feeling is gone.
May be blue skies above
But it's cold
When your love's on the rocks.

First the say they want you
. . .

Love on the rocks
Ain't no big surprise.
Just pour me a drink
And I'll tell you some lies.
Yesterday's gone
And now all I want
Is a smile.

I'll leave the rest of the gang to tear you to shreds/make constructive comments. I admire you're trying. You're nearly there.

Hic. Did you type all of that, or was it (hic) a cut-and-paste job?

cut and pasted it from a generic lyrics site.

but I did it with style, and a wry smile

p'sure

Just for a minute, i thought it was going to be The Darkness' 'Love on the Rocks (with no ice)'... now that would be hilarious. especially Von doing the crowd walk.
i'll be giggling all day about that one..

Just imagine the last line - sung by von
It's so perfect

i just KNEW you'd see it....

And if doesn't feel like writing any new songs... well. it's hardly difficult to learn on his part...
We're doing him a favor.

the thought of Von in a catsuit has just lost me a mouthful of coffee.
