This song is pretty hard to find, but it is a magnificent piece of work. So simplistic,
so deep and moving. -MRG
Not sure if most of the words are correct. Kind of hard to decipher since it was a live performance.
Take Me By Surprise
EADGBE Tuning
x2
Verse 1:
Sometimes I feel so aimless If I’ve been shameless in my pride
That my soul showed. That I could go on. Live without you in my life.
Chorus:
All the roads I’ve traveled
All the mountains I put behind
But still I can’t seem to get you off of my mind
And after all the years, baby, the worry and lies
And still you’re smile can take me by surprise.
Verse 2:
Time rose past its slumber, but still I wonder what went wrong.
Did I loose you, or did I trade you for a moment or a song
Bridge:
Ohhh to be here like we once were, like we never will again
Ohhh. To be sent home used to please me
Was enough just to be your friend
Chorus:
All the roads I’ve traveled
All the mountains I put behind
But still I can’t seem to get you off of my mind
And after all the years, the pain, the worry and lies
And still you’re smile can take me by surprise.
And still you’re smile can take me by surprise.
