Adjustment

Permanent Tourist

So I moved to North Carolina to be closer to family and it’s been a good experience. However it was tough to leave some people behind. This song is about that.

BTW, there is a riff about 8 minutes in written by my buddy Chris Schugg

LYRICS:

I am strumming my spinal chord
Reflex my own reward
Hey there I bet you I’m having fun

I will play but I might get bored
unless we’re keeping score
Hey there I bet that you thought you won

This has been a bit of an adjustment
Something I will muddle through
Found myself a different way to state it
Now I am a wiser fool

Feel it running up through my spine
yet nothing comes to mind
Hey there I thought you heard everything

I said yes still I might decline
unless you get behind
Hey there I thought I had time to win

You know what?
I wish I would
I wish I would

You know you
did what you could
did what you could

Get it together

Let’s take this from the top
I know just what to do
I’ve found some words to say so
listen up for clues

I’ve got some words to say

Correct
my posture

I
am an impostor

I am standing ever taller
than I ever have before
I’m not at your beck and call or
else you’ll be the one ignored

Everything’s becoming smaller
everything’s on tape delay
Don’t know if I can hear you
Suppose it’s better this way
