Souther Hillman Furay  Prisoner In Disguise written by J.D. Souther

           

                                      
You think the love you never had might save you
                                  
But true love takes a little trying
                                              
You can touch it with your fingers try to believe your eyes
               
Is it love or lies
          
So you're keeping your distance a little bit of running round you
                                            
But if she doesn't return your call on time oh my   my
                                                        
You just act like a fool on a holiday there's nothing you wouldn't try
                        
You must be a prisoner in disguise
                           
Now this night life is my life but there's no one else in it
                                   
Sometimes these lonesome breezes blow
                                   
But it's no show you might as well go if you think you could win it
                                                ^?
Without losing and letting it show      try to stay low
                                                               
This city is no place to hide in everybody knows your number
                                             
I don't believe you could ever be  alone if you tried
                             
You just run like a man with no reason to run
                  
And no place to ever arrive
                                     
You must be a prisoner in disguise


SHF Band    Rise And Fall    written by Chris  Hillman

                                              
 Running high running low it's down the road we go
                    
And it's hard  hard time
                                                    
Can't you see where we been you know we can't do that again
                  
But it's hard hard times
                                                
Through the long dark night we kept our hopes held high
                                       
Hopin to find what we'd all been prayin for
                                                   
On a pathway filled with lies we still manage to get by
                   
But it's hard hard times
                                                          
And it's a run for the money run down to the show to rock n roll
                                                          
After all these years of tryin tell me is it really worth it all to
rise and

fall
                                        
And it all goes by so fast it hardly ever lasts
                                     
And there's  always someone who wants more
                                                
And this feeling deep inside I've tried so long to hide
                  
But it's hard hard time

SHF Band      Follow Me Through       written by Chris  Hillman

      

                            
Look out my window snow flakes fall
                                
A voice down inside me beckons and calls
                              
Keep my eyes open learn from the past
                                      
Look towards tomorrow to fufill a task
                                               
Will you follow me   we can learn from each other share what is true
                               
If I stumble and fall then we're headed for bad times
                                             
You'd be around to give me the strength pull my feet of the ground
                                                           
Circle can't be broken till the last words spoken
                                        
Know how it feels when there's no where to go
                                     
Just make yourself lonely make yourself old
                                   
And late in the night when I needed a friend
                                              
I reached out to touch you  you found me again

SHF Band      Heavenly Fire  written by Chris Hillman/Len Fagan

intro           

                              
Heavenly fire cold dark rain I'm feeling so low
                 
Won't you play it again
                           
There'll be tears of sorrow tears of strife
                                             
Running hiding through the long hours of night
           
Hard To live easy to die
                                 
Makes you want to get down on your knees and cry
                      
How many times have you felt this way
                       
How many times have you heard them say
                   
It's a heavenly fire cold dark rain
                           
I'm feeling so low won't you play it again
                              
Tears of sorrow tears of strife running hiding
                         
Through the long hours of night
                 
Lived the life you sang about
                        
Carried me through when I had my doubts
                         
Now there's an emptiness inside of me
                         
All I've got left is your memory

SOLO

                   
Tired and weary your not alone
                      
Still searching for the way back home
                     
Further on we'll meet again someday
                               
These are the last words that I heard you say
                      
Heavenly fire cold dark rain
                                   
I'm feeling so low won't you play it again
                           
There'll be tears of sorrow tears of strife
                                    
Running hiding thru the long hours of night
                                      
And There'll be heavenly fire cold dark rain
