jake paleschic - painting in ashes lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
if he went down to georgia
musta come from tennessee
played on my heart there for a little while
put his hand up on my knee
i tried to abide him
but it only did me wrong
we only had so much to talk about
before his eyes lighted on my songs

[verse 2]
quickly, so quickly
back and forth i go
from bathing in gold summer sundown
to his hands, hard and cold
takin’ and breakin’
grip, jaws, and chain
i long to feel a kiss without a bite
and the wind without the rain
[chorus]
now i’m paintin’ in his ashes
and i’m singin’ in his memory
in the lamplight of a new home
where his steps are surely leadin’

[verse 3]
my faith ain’t in my country
we’ll run her into the ground
my joy ain’t in the music
you know your ears grow tied of the sound
better than better
truer than true
daylight is comin’
for me and you

[chorus]
now i’m paintin’ in his ashes
and i’m singin’ in his memory
in the lamplight of a new home
where his steps are surely leadin’
