Beau James - Broken Hearted Past I'm such a fool for ever kissing a girl like you because I knew the moment I touched your lips I wouldn't sleep until your heart belonged to me but now I see I moved too fast so please forgive me if I take a few steps back. It's just my broken hearted past has got some questions he’d like to ask, am I the only man who’s kissing you at night? And is my heart the one you're trying to take or is my heart that when you're going to break please be honest, tell me the truth so I'll know if I need to start getting over you. Because I'm so ashamed that my heart even feels this way you're not to blame it’s someone else's mess but I'll confess that I've grown tired of my loneliness and if you pass the test it all might change. So please forgive me for these words I’m about to say. It's just my broken hearted past has got some questions he’d like to ask am, I the only man that's kissing you at night? And is my heart the one you're trying to take or is my heart the one you're going to break, please be honest, tell me the truth so I'll know if I need to start getting over you. Please be honest, tell me the truth so I'll know if I need to start getting over you. It's just my broken hearted past has got some questions he’d like to ask am, I the only man that's kissing you at night? And is my heart the one you're trying to take or is my heart the one you're going to break, please be honest, tell me the truth so I'll know if I need to start getting over you. Please be honest, tell me the truth so I'll know if I need to start getting over you.

Shotgun Town 03:48
Beau James - Shotgun Town It took sixteen days by her side to figure out just what I was missing in life and after sixteen more I knew for sure I couldn't let that woman out of my sight, not for a night, oh because she makes me feel like I'm alive, oh and she makes me feel like I'll survive another night. Living in this shotgun town with no one around and no one to talk to. Living in this shot gun town with no one around but that's where I found you, That’s where I found you. Sixteen days after that I knew I had to make it a matter fact so after just one more said a word I said I'd never say again for the rest of my life but I said it last night, oh because she makes me feel like I'm alive, oh and she makes me feel like I'll survive another night. Living in this shotgun town with no one around and no one to talk to. Living in this shot gun town with no one around but that's where I found you. Living in the shotgun town with no one around and no one to talk to. Living in this shotgun with no one around but that's where I found you, that's where I found you. You were just living in this shotgun town with no one around and no one to talk to, living in this shotgun town with no one around but that’s where I kissed you. Living in this shotgun town with no one around and no one to talk to, living in this shotgun town with no one around and no one to talk to I said that I loved you. I said that I loved you and frankly I still do.

Beau James - Head Start Met me a woman that I thought was the one, told her I loved her and she started to run away so I gave chase. Every time I catch up she slips away giving me the runaround every day and night and I'm getting tired of her dangling a carrot from my broken heart because I'll never catch up because she got a head start. Follow her prints all around town try to figure out just how to track her down but she can't be found. There must be something wrong with the line because every time I call I never get a reply and I don't know why she keeps dangling a carrot from my broken heart and I'll never catch up because she got a head start. Yeah she’s dangling a carrot from my broken heart and I’ll never catch up because she got a head start. And every tortoise is bound to find his hare and Jessica rabbit I'd follow her anywhere but if I catch her I'd have to let her go because the thrill of the chase is the only thing I've grown to know. So I'll keep chasing until these lungs inside me finally tell me that they're done and it’s time to move on because she's dangling a carrot for my broken heart and I'll never catch up because she got a head start yeah she's dangling a carrot for my broken heart and I'll never catch up because she got a head start.

Lost & Found 04:07
Beau James - Lost & Found If I had fortune if I had fame if all my dreams came true I'd never be the same because I'd be lost the moment that I'm found yeah I’d be lost the moment that I'm found. Because I love the silence of being plain if I was popular I think I'd go insane because I'd be lost the moment that I'm found yeah I'd be lost the moment that I'm found. I guess the funny thing about chasing fame is the one thing I never want to change are the sleepless nights I'd take a drive through the dark, just wishing I could reach the sky and be a star. But if my dreams came true I'd have nothing left to do, nothing else worth fighting for, only more to lose if I'm found. I want to woman who loves my soul, if I had all that money I guess I'd never know because I'd be lost the moment that I'm found yeah I'd be lost the moment that I'm found. I see the family, I see the home, I just can't see all the moments missed out on the road because they be lost the moment that I'm found, they'd all be lost the moment that I'm found. I guess the funny thing about chasing fame is the one thing I never want to change are the sleepless nights I'd take a drive through the dark just wishing I could reach the sky and be a star but if my dreams came true I'd have nothing left to do, nothing else worth fighting for only more to lose if I'm found. Yeah if my dreams came true I'd have nothing left to do nothing else worth fighting for only more to lose if I'm found.

Cowboy Boots 03:11
Beau James - Cowboy Boots Pulling on these Cowboy boots They're faded black and the heels are wearing away. Because they're the final piece of my facade that helps me hide my human heart away from what people might say. Cause words you say to a troubled man, You never know how they're effecting him and it might just send that man into despair that's why I wear These two cowboy boots broken in with age they help me step up on any stage ‘cause they have got a thicker skin than I. Judgment's got itself a wicked side but poisonous words they just can't bite through these cowboy boots I wear on my two feet. That's why these cowboy boots go everywhere with me. Walking down this dusty road of places I've been and places I want to go. I wear these boots every step of the way They've ruined my shins but their still protecting me from what they say like That boys got his hand caught in a trap, he touches a bottle he don’t look back and he's gonna end up drinking his talent away That's why I save These two cowboy boots broken in with age they help me step up on any stage ‘cause they have got a thicker skin than I. Judgment's got itself a wicked side but poisonous words they just can't bite through these cowboy boots I wear on my two feet. That's why these cowboy boots go everywhere with me. That’s why these cowboy boots I wear on my two feet, That’s why these cowboy boots go everywhere with me.

Beau James - She Stayed Home Cardboard boxes all around packed with dreams of leaving town, the only thing that's left to go is me. In the morning I'll be gone, the trucks she’s leavin’ at the break it down a one-way trip down to Tennessee. But the love of mine, this love of mine, this love of mine she stayed home. Home. And though she begged me not to go there was too many things there I couldn't let go, unless I had time to do some exploring on my own. But the love of mine this love of mine this love of mine she stayed home. And she found love and she found faith well I found love by getting wasted every time that she came to my mind because she stayed home. Home. Home. Home. But the love of mine this love of mine the level of mine she stayed home. Home.

New Chord 04:58
Beau James - New Chord I wish that I knew a new chord for you because nothing will do if I'm trying to write a song about you. So I stick to the C because it sounds close to me to what I hear when I see you dancing through my dreams and even though I’m miles away I still think about you every day. Even though I’m miles and miles away I hold out hope I'll be holding you someday. So I'll keep on writing stupid love songs until the day you fall in love with me, and I'll keep on tugging at these heartstrings until they find the words that bring you here to me because then we’d finally see what we could be. Do you think of me too lying close to you and when you look to the moon do you hear me singing a familiar tune? Because even though I’m miles away, still see your face almost every day, and even though I’m miles and miles away I hold out hope I'll be holding you someday. So I'll keep on writing stupid love songs until the day you fall in love with me and I'll keep on tugging at these heartstrings until they find the words that bring you here to me because then we’ld finally see, oh because then we, we’d finally see, oh what we could be. But I wish that I knew a new chord for you because nothing will do if I’m trying to write a song about you.
