Hope Morrison

Intro: verse 1 I met you in a biker bar in longview Just a shaggy kid with nothing to lose So I swaggered up to make my move Wait for your que verse 2 I'd like to think that it happened all gracefully I'll make you laugh and take you home with me But it wasn't how I'd like it to be Pre-Chorus 'Cause then walked in a problem boy with a beard With a spider tattoo behind his left ear Saying "Back away or get set to swallow your own teeth" But you know me 'Cause we're all going ninety to nothing Looking for someone Looking for something Searching for a crutch or a cup to pour us in hope morrison Instrumental verse 3 Now keep in mind She had a shadow on her left green eye And her hands were a bit more shaky than mine I can't imagine he's the greatest guy To this dime verse 4 So here I stand with a soda bottle in my hand Say "I'll protect her" but I know I can't But I was raised to be a better man then to stand for this Pre-Chorus And he got in a few shots to the face And I got in a few shots to the space around his head I thought "I'm dead" he threw me in an alley, took my keys And drove away as I bled 'Cause we're all going ninety to nothing Looking for someone Looking for something Searching for a crutch or a cup To pour us in hope morrison Bridge And as I lay I see the door open up from the bar I see a pretty brown halo like a light in the dark She patched me up and picked me off of the gravel ground She said “My name is Hope“ and she asked me if I could stand around (one strum each *sing quietly*) 'Cause we're all going ninety to nothing Looking for someone Looking for something Searching for a crutch or a cup To pour us on hope morrison (Carry out the and sing louder) And now I've slowed to nothing from ninety I don't need to wait for someone to find me Houses full of heroes to adore us in hope morrison
