Back Up

This bluesy little tune came to me out of nowhere. It took about 45 minutes to write and ten minutes to forget. Then a whole day to remember. I hate it when I forget to record a new idea. Really. Very much. Anyhow, I'm glad this one returned to me because I really like it.

Back Up

Intro

Bluesy hammer-ons and pull-offs

Verse 1

Let me see the other side of life

I can't promise, but you know that I won't bite

But I don't wanna be your back up plan anymore.


Sit and listen to the subject at hand.

Leave or stay girl, I am always your man

But I don't wanna be your back door man anymore.


Take it all it don't mean nothin' to me.

You know I'm tryin', I just want you to see

That I ain't gonna be your little kick stand anymore

Chorus

No I won't sit by and let you slip away

I've been trying hard to bring it back to life someday.

Verse 2

Girl, I'd give you every minute of the day

But this time I really need you to stay

'Cause I don't wanna be your back up plan anymore.


All or nothin' is the name of the game

If you can give it, there's no reason to wait

'Cause I don't wanna be your sometime man anymore


One eye open, I'm still sleepin' inside

Count to ten and you'll be standin' by me

'Cause I ain't gonna be your hide and seek anymore

Chorus

No I won't sit by and let you slip away

I've been trying hard to bring it back to life someday.

No I won't sit by and let you slip away

I've been trying hard to bring it back to life someday.

No I won't sit by and let you slip away

I've been trying hard to bring it back to life someday.
