No Place To Hide

Silent and still, the night surrounds the weary warrior's bed - While the tumult of the killing ground rages inside his head - Though long ago and far away, War spreads its fingers wide - He feels its fiery touch each day - Sleep gives no place to hide. - Lachlan Irvine.

Crazy Heart

Lately I’ve been enjoying the soundtrack album of the movie Crazy Heart; not just listening, but learning the songs. I’ve put the lyrics and guitar chords for the seven songs I’ve learnt so far on my web site. They are: Fallin’ and Flyin’, Hold On You, I Don’t Know, Somebody Else (all original songs for the movie, sung by Jeff Bridges); and If I Needed You (Townes Van Zandt), Reflecting Light (Sam Phillips) and The Weary Kind (by Ryan Bingham, the movie’s theme song.)

IF I NEEDED YOU

I've added the lyrics & guitar chords for If I Needed You to the My Song Book pages of my web site. This beautiful old Townes Van Zandt song has been included on the soundtrack album of the movie Crazy Heart. Click on this link for a film clip of Townes Van Zandt singing the song.
