Finding The Way (song)

Finding The Way By Jesse Scobie

Cm F
I've spent ten years living in a cage
G Cm
Lord knows I can't make it on my own

Cm F
I've spent ten years living in a cage
G Cm
Lord know I can't make it on my own

Cm F
Destiny comes calling, guess who ends up falling
G Cm
You gotta end up where your suppose to be

Cm F
You can't keep on preaching every time you're breathing
G Cm
Look at the bright side at least you're not me

Cm F
I've spent twenty years locked up in the school
G Cm
Lord knows it won't be pretty when I'm out

Cm F
I've spent twenty years locked up in the school
G Cm
Lord knows it won't be pretty when I'm out

Dm F
Freedom's cheap as whiskey working overtime, you miss me?
Bb C
Well next time think before you act

Dm F
Words can speak loud but actions rain like stormy clouds
Bb C
You better make sure lightning doesn't strike your back

SOLOS

I've spent ten years living in a cage
Lord knows I can't make it on my own

I've spent ten years living in a cage
Lord knows I can't make it on my owns

Can't make it on my own, can't fake it all alone
And it sure as hell takes somebody to know

Have God as my witness but I still can't get forgiveness
And I know I'll never make it on my own

If there's a heaven high above this earth
Lord knows I'm never gonna know

Bethesda (song)

Bethesda By Jesse Scobie

Chords: Eb Ab Bb Ab
Well I was driving down on Wisconsin Avenue thinking about all the times I had with you
Eb Ab Bb Ab
Thinking of the past memories we shared in hopeless nights, you know we never truly cared
Eb Ab Bb Ab
We grew up at Whitman High School, spent days at the Regal try to act cool
Eb Ab Bb Ab
But we knew we never could reach that high in this town pop culture landslide

Bb Eb Ab
And I'm going to Bethesda now after all this wasted time
I'm going back to Bethesda now and this time I'm gonna gonna gonna
make you mine!

Barnes and Nobles was always a favorite spot to chill and relax before smoking some pot
Fake ID's to get in bars but sometimes got caught so we took it to the backyard
Listening to remixes and drinking cold beer till we even forgot it was our senior
year. Those days are long gone but the memories still live forever on..

And I'm going to Bethesda now, honey I'm about to lose my mind
I'm going back to Bethesda now and this time I'm gonna gonna gonna
make you mine!

Bridge:
Chords: Bmaj Amaj Emaj
You know love is never easy and sometimes you lose sight of the meaning of why you came here in the first place
But I don't believe anymore in random meetings or senseless feelings, I think ours was a special case
It's liking getting stuck in traffic on 270 and not knowing when you'll be free to move again
Baby I don't want to stay in a self made prison cell, gotta get me out of this hell and when I say hello don't act like your just
my friend.

Well so much has changed since I last saw you, got a black president and oh yeah went through college too
Yes I'm just trying to make it as a music man, had other ideas for life but they ended up as second plans
So how's your life going? What's the direction? Up or down or just a case of ordinary American infection
Well whatever it is I hope you can find some room for one more man in your life and you better make it real soon!

And I'm going to Bethesda now, I'm just about feeling mighty fine
I'm going back to Bethesda now and this time I'm gonna gonna gonna
make you mine!
