In the hours that made you leave
All the world was caving on me
I didn’t have a way to say
The world was turning on me
Only didn’t want you to leave 

Please forgive me
It wasn’t you
Just didn’t know how to please
And the world was so cold 

Didn’t realize what was reality or me
Were we worthy of being saved?
With all our fears and insecurities

Just please forgive me
Just please forgive me
Just please forgive me

Did I have something to hide
I know you were trying to find
Were they only secrets I hear?
Redemption is too easy to please
While I stumble as life seemed

Just please forgive me
Just please forgive me
Just please forgive me

Running towards you and me
It is the only thing I see
Just wanted us to meet between
Only wanted peace for you and me
But it’s path was only a mirror of me

Just please forgive me
Just please forgive me
Just please forgive me

Ol' No. 7 (Whiskey From Tennessee)

By Brian Hendrix

This is my baby. I post this reluctantly. Though nonetheless I'll post it. Long story short: I ran into an old buddy whose wife had left him years ago. He's still around, but a shell of himself and drunk. I woke up at 4a.m. one morning and jotted this down in notepad; it still gives me chills when I read it or sing it. It's a true country song. Though in the same vein as someone like Townes, take note of the verse-chorus hybrid structure, wherein the chorus starts via picking up tempo and vocalization after the second bar in each verse. It's about Jack Daniels, FYI.
