Misc Originals – Casey Nelton - Eighteen On Stage (Guitar)

         G                      C           G
He’s got white in his hair, and fire in his soul,

   G                                Em        G
He tells me ‘bout the way, when the bayou was gold.

   G                     C       G
I play the chords, while he hums along,

      G                         Em               G
We’re frozen in time, different years, different song

C
Strings start ringing and time stands still,

G
Two hearts, one rhythm, and always will.

Am
No matter years, no matter age,

C
Lost in the music, because we’re eighteen on stage.

G                C             G
I bring the new, he brings the old

G                            Em           G
He plays Hank and Waylon and I sing Jelly Roll

G                            C        G
The world keeps changing but we never move,

G                             C         G
Six strings, Saltwater, and a man named Coon.

C
Strings start ringing and time stands still,

G
Two hearts, one rhythm, and always will.

Am
No matter years, no matter age,

C
Lost in the music, because we’re eighteen on stage.

G                    C            G
The crowds are gone, an the night is slow,

G                                    Em      G
but we still play our tune, till its time to go

G                            C     G
The lights fade down and the echoes stay,

G                       Em             G
We’ll still be eighteen every time we play.

C
