Avenues Music

This is a secret blog where I post demos of my songs. Really rough demos, so don't expect any fancy guitars and singing on key.

John Lennon

LYRICS:
———————————————————— 

Am-C-F-E7
Another night, the same old town
Dim basement lights, indifferent crowd
The drinks are passed around the bar
Your wasted friends not very far

And through the speakers by the door
you hear a song from long ago
You never left things where they lay
“Imagine all the people, living for today”

Dm-Em-Am
And that song that tears you apart
and ends too soon
With nostalgia ripping out your heart
that simple tune
But it’s more than just the melancholy
for the past
It’s a bruise, and bruises last

F-E7-Am
And when you look around
your friends are silent, well
they recognize

And they shy away
and look surprised but
it’s in their eyes

And if you see past their
ironic sneer, oh
They feel it too

We’re all bruised and not just you
