B7 E Some extra paper towells in my shopping cart. A E I put an extra pinch of salt in my jambalaya B7 E Then an extra hour to read my Jeremiah. C#m A Its easy doing things you like to do, F#7 B7 But the extra mile's the thing that see's it through. E B7 E And its always worked the same, no matter who, B7 E The extra mile's the thing that see's it through. | | B7 | E | | | B7 | E | | A | | E | | F#7 | | B7 | | E B7 E Its easy doing things you like to do, B7 E But the extra mile's the thing that see's it through.

When I Walk out the Door by Adam Belsky, all rights reserved 2018 D | A | G | A | D | | | | Bm A G D | | | | Waiting in silence for the sound of the drop of a shoe. Bm G Bm A | | | | Watching the steam from the kettle and tasting its brew. G D How many times with the same conversation, G D When does foregiveness begin, G Gm D Bm A | | | Where do we go if we never move forward, what then? CHORUS | D A G A D | | | I'll be a long time gone when I walk out the door. | A G A D | | | | I won't be changing my mind when I get to the end of the hall. G A I'm heading right when I reach the corner, Bm A G | | | No turning 'round anymore. And | D A G A D | | | | I'll be a long time gone when I walk out the door. Bm A G D | | | | Where is that person, the girl with the bun in her hair? Bm G Bm A | | | | I see her shadow and somehow I think she's still in there. G D I've been ashamed of my own disposition, G D I can be moody and drawn, G Gm D Bm A | | | | But where do we go if there's no way of moving on? [CHORUS] Bm G D | | | I made a promise, a promise I'm hoping to keep. | Bm G A | | | | But I spend my waking hours thinking 'bout going to sleep. G A I think our changes can turn into positives, Bm A G | | Gm | Same as its happened before, but | D A G A D | | | | I'll be a long time gone when I walk out the door. D | A | G | A | D | | | |

A Minute There or Three by Adam Belsky, all rights reserved 2018 F | C | Em | F | D | | G | G7 | C F C There she sat across a crowded classroom. F C Could have been a half a mile from me. F C Em F Ribbons in her hair, pretending not to stare, D G G7 I looked at her a minute there or three. C F C Practicing my sudden introduction, G C Gazing at my fingers nervously. F C Em F Never seems to fail, taken by the gale D G G7 That stirs the heart a minute there or three. F C Em F What happens in an instant can vanish suddenly, D G G7 But stirs the heart a minute there or three. C F C There she sat across the crowded classroom. G C F I stared at her a minute there or three. C G C | | A minute there or three. C | F | C | | | F | C | | F | C | Em | F | D | | G | G7 | C F C Quietly she sleeps another hour. G C Never seems to go down peacefully. F C Em F A ribbon in her curls, eighteen pounds of girl. D G G7 I look at her a minute there or three. F C Em F What happens in an instant can vanish suddenly, D G G7 But stirs the heart a minute there or three. C F C Quietly she sleeps another hour. G C F I stare at her a minute there or three. C G C | | A minute there or three.

Infectious by Adam Belsky, all rights reserved 2018 G | | | | D | | Bm | | G | | A | | D | | | | A | | | | I am forced to conclude that the good Lord made Texas on his off day. G A D G A For pure entertainment just to prove his skills, a really top hand. D A If a man comes from Texas, he'll tell you, he makes no point of masking. G A D | | | | If he doesn't come from Texas, then why embarrass him by asking. CHORUS G D | | When it all falls apart, when a pain in the heart becomes infectious, Bm | ' G A D | | | | You may all go to Hell and I will go to Texas. D A | | | | A child born in Texarkana, family crossing, covered wagon days, G A The time he crossed the Lone Star State would reach El Paso D G A entering the third grade. D A | | | | Immigrants who face Comanche, Kiowa, before the reservations G A D | | | | Surely don't build Middletown, not for several generations. [CHORUS] D | | | | A | | | | G | | A | | D |'' G A | | | D | | | | A | | | | G | | A | | D | | | | [CHORUS] Bm G A | | | | There is vastness, and I believe we breathe it under our skin. Bm G A G A We dream big, we think big, there's nothing here to hem us in. [CHORUS] G A When it all falls apart, when the pain in your heart, Bm A G | | | | When the pain in your heart is infectious, A D | | | | G | | A | ' Y'all go to Hell I'll go to Texas. D | | | | I'll go to Texas.

If I Was Dreaming by Adam Belsky, all rights reserved 2018 D | E | E7 | A D If I was dreaming, I could see the world in black and white A E And hear the voices speaking without words. A D In the morning, or somewhere in the dead of night A E A Awaken to forget the things I heard. D If I was hoping, I could close my eyes and wish about A E The changes before they appear. A D A But I'm not dreaming, and I open up my eyes to not believing E A What I'm seeing here. D Its amazing. I never knew such peacefulness A Would ever simply co-exist with sorrow. D Its confusing that friends can place their confidence A In ignorance to get them to tomorrow. D And its chilling, 'cause the best of times are temporary. A F#m Best of times can always go away. D E It doesn't matter what they say. D E | E7 The best of times can always go away. REFRAIN | A D If I was dreaming I would open up my eyes to face A F#m D The darkness, wash down my fear. But I'm not dreaming, E A | | I'm standing here. F#m D Take another look around. Inspect the sky and test the ground A E I'm standing on. Does it shake? F#m D Take a pencil draw a line. Try 'n read a highway sign B E | E7 To see if I'm awake. [REFRAIN] D E | A | D | A No, I'm not dreaming.
