Tim McGraw
Tim McGraw
(Written by Taylor Swift/Liz Rose)
He said the way my blue eyes shined
Put those Georgia stars to shame that night
I said, that’s a lie
Just a boy in a Chevy truck that had a tendency
Of getting stuck on backroads at night
And I was right there beside him all summer long
And then the time we woke up to find that summer gone, but
When you think, Tim McGraw, I hope you think my favorite song
The one we danced to all night long
The moon like a spotlight on the lake
When you think happiness, I hope you think that little black dress
Think of my head on your chest and my old faded blue jeans
When you think Tim McGraw… I hope you think of me
September saw a month of tears and thanking God
That you weren’t here, to see me like that
But in a box beneath my bed is a letter that you never read
From three summers back
It’s hard not to find it all a little bittersweet
And looking back on all of that
It’s nice to believe
When you think, Tim McGraw, I hope you think my favorite song
The one we danced to all night long
The moon like a spotlight on the lake
When you think happiness, I hope you think that little black dress
Think of my head on your chest and my old faded blue jeans
When you think Tim McGraw… I hope you think of me
And I’m back for the first time since then
I’m standing on your street
And there’s a letter left on your doorstep
And the first thing that you’ll read…
Is, when you think, Tim McGraw, I hope you think my favorite song
Some day you’ll turn your radio on
I hope it takes you back to that place
When you think happiness, I hope you think that little black dress
Think of my head on your chest and my old faded blue jeans
When you think Tim McGraw… I hope you think of me
Oh, think of me
Mmmm-hmmmm
He said the way my blue eyes shined
Put those Georgia stars to shame that
Picture To Burn [Radio Single Version]
Picture To Burn [Radio Single Version]
(Taylor Swift/Liz Rose)
State the obvious, I didn’t get my perfect fantasy
I realized you love yourself more that you could ever love me
So go and tell your friends that I’m obsessive and crazy
That’s fine, you won’t mind if I say
And by the way
I hate that stupid old pickup truck
You never let me drive
You’re a redneck, heartbreak
Who’s really bad at lying
So watch me strike a match
On all my wasted time
As far as I’m concerned
You’re just another picture to burn
There’s no time for tears
I’m just sitting here planning my revenge
Nothing stopping me
From going out with all of your best friends
And if you come around saying sorry to me
My daddy’s going to show you how sorry you’ll be
Cause I hate that stupid old pickup truck
You never let me drive
You’re a redneck, heartbreak
Who’s really bad at lying
So watch me strike a match
On all my wasted time
As far as I’m concerned
You’re just another picture to burn
And if you’re missing me
You better keep it to yourself
Cause coming back around here
Would be bad for your health
Cause I hate that stupid old pickup truck
You never let me drive
You’re a redneck, heartbreak
Who’s really bad at lying
So watch me strike a match
On all my wasted time
In case you haven’t heard
I really, really hate that stupid old pickup truck
You never let me drive
You’re a redneck, heartbreak
Who’s really bad at lying
So watch me strike a match
On all my wasted time
As far as I’m concerned
You’re just another picture to burn
Burn, burn, burn, baby burn
You’re just another picture to burn
Baby, burn
Teardrops on My Guitar [Radio Single Version]
Teardrops on My Guitar [Radio Single Version]
(Liz Rose/Taylor Swift)
Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won’t see
That I want and I’m needing everything that we should be
I’ll bet she’s beautiful that girl he talks about
And she’s got everything that I have to live without
Drew talks to me, I laugh ’cause its just so funny
I can’t even see anyone when he’s with me
He says he’s so in love, he’s finally got it right
I wonder if he knows he’s all I think about at night
He’s the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a
wishing star
He’s the song in the car I keep singing, don’t know
why I do
Drew walks by me, can he tell that I can’t breathe
And there he goes, so perfectly
The kind of flawless I wish I could be
She better hold him tight give him all her love
Look in those beautiful eyes and know she’s lucky cause
He’s the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a
wishing star
He’s the song in the car I keep singing, don’t know
why I do
So I drive home alone as I turn out the light
I’ll put his picture down and maybe
get some sleep tonight
Cause he’s the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only one who’s got enough of me to break my heart
He’s the song in the car I keep singing don’t know
why I do
He’s the time taken up but there’s never enough
And he’s all that I need to fall into…
Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won’t see
A Place In This World
A Place In This World
(Angelo/Robert Ellis Orrall/Taylor Swift)
I don’t know what I want
So don’t ask me cause I’m still trying to figure it out
Don’t know what’s down this road
I’m just walking trying to see through the rain coming down
Even though I’m not the only one who feels the way I do
I’m alone, on my own and that’s all I know
I’ll be strong, I’ll be wrong, oh, but life goes on
Oh, I’m just a girl trying to find a place in this world
Got the radio on, my old blue jeans
And I’m wearing my heart on my sleeve
Feeling luck today, got the sunshine
Can you tell me what more do I need
And tomorrow’s just a mystery
Oh, yeah, but that’s okay
I’m alone, on my own and that’s all I know
I’ll be strong, I’ll be wrong, oh, but life goes on
Oh, I’m just a girl trying to find a place in this world
Maybe I’m just a girl on a mission
But I’m ready to fly…
I’m alone, on my own and that’s all I know
Oh, I’ll be strong, I’ll be wrong, oh, but life goes on
Oh, I’m alone, on my own and that’s all I know
Oh, I’m just a girl trying to find a place in this world
Oh, I’m just a girl
Oh, I’m just a girl, ah, uh
Oh, I’m just a girl…
Cold As You
Cold As You
(Liz Rose/Taylor Swift)
You have a way of coming easily to me
And when you take, you take the very best of me
So I start a fight cause I need to feel something
And you do what you want cause I’m not what you wanted
Oh, what a shame, what a rainy ending given to a perfect day
Just walk away, no use defending words that you will
never say
And now that I’m sitting here thinking it through
I’ve never been anywhere cold as you
You put up walls and paint them all a shade of gray
And I stood there loving you and washed them all away
And you come away with a great little story
Of a mess of a dreamer with the nerve to adore you
Oh, what a shame, what a rainy ending given to a perfect day
So just walk away, no use defending words that you will
never say
And now that I’m sitting here thinking it through
I’ve never been anywhere cold as you
You never did give a damn thing, honey but I cried, cried for you
And I know you wouldn’t have told nobody if I died, died for you
Died for you
Oh, what a shame, what a rainy ending given to a perfect day, oh
Every smile you fake is so condescending
Counting all the scars you made
And now that I’m sitting her thinking it through
I’ve never been anywhere cold as you
Oooooooo, oh, a whoa
The Outside
The Outside
(Taylor Swift)
I didn’t know what I would find
When I went looking for a reason, I know
I didn’t read between the lines
And, baby I’ve got nowhere to go
I tried to take the road less traveled by
But nothing seems to work the first few times
Am I right?
So how can I ever try to be better?
Nobody ever, lets me in
I can still see you, this ain’t the best view
On the outside looking in
I’ve been a lot of lonely places
I’ve never been on the outside
You saw me there, but never knew
That I would give it all up to be
A part of this, a part of you
And now it’s all too late so you see
You could have helped if you had wanted to
But no one notices until it’s too
Late to do anything
How can I ever, try to be better?
Nobody ever lets me in
I can still see you, this ain’t the best view
On the outside looking in
I’ve been a lot of lonely places
I’ve never been on the outside
Oh, yeah
How can I ever, try to be better?
Nobody ever lets me in
And I can still see you, this ain’t the best view
On the outside looking in
I’ve been a lot of lonely places
I’ve never been on the outside
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Ah, oh, oh
Oh, oh
Tied Together With a Smile
Tied Together With a Smile
(Liz Rose/Taylor Swift)
Seems the only one who doesn’t see your beauty
Is the face in the mirror looking back at you
You walk around here thinking your not pretty
But that’s not true, cause I know you…
Hold on, baby, you’re losing it
The waters high, you’re jumping into it
And letting go… and no one knows
That you cry but you don’t tell anyone
That you might not be the golden one
And your tied together with a smile
But your coming undone
Whoooooa, oooooh ….
I guess it’s true that love was all you wanted
Cause you’re given it away like it’s extra change
Hoping it will end up in his pocket (his pocket)
But he leaves you out like a penny in the rain
Oh, cause its not his price to pay
It’s not his price to pay…
Hold on, baby, you’re losing it
The waters high, you’re jumping into it
And letting go… and no one knows
That you cry but you don’t tell anyone
That you might not be the golden one
And your tied together with a smile
But your coming undone
Whoooooa, oooooh …
Whaaa-uh-oh
Hold on, baby, you’re losing it
The waters high, you’re jumping into it
And letting go and no one knows
That you cry but you don’t tell anyone
That you might not be the golden one
And your tied together with a smile
But your coming undone
Whoooooa, oooooh ….
You’re tied together with a smile
But you’re coming undone…
Oh, whoa, whoooa
Goodbye, baby with a smile
Baby, baby
Oh, oooh
Stay Beautiful
Stay Beautiful
(Liz Rose/Taylor Swift)
Cory’s eyes are like a jungle
He smiles, it’s like the radio
He whispers songs into my window
In words that nobody knows
There’s pretty girls on every corner
They watch him as he’s walking home
Saying, does he know
Will you ever know
Your beautiful,
Every little piece, love, don’t you know
You’re really gonna be someone, ask anyone
And when you find everything you’ve looked for
I hope your life leads you back to my door
Oh, but if it don’t, stay beautiful
Cory finds another way to be
The highlight of my day
I’m taking pictures in my mind
So I can save them for a rainy day
It’s hard to make conversation
When he’s taking my breath away
I should say, hey, by the way
Your beautiful,
Every little piece, love, don’t you know
You’re really gonna be someone, ask anyone
And when you find everything you’ve looked for
I hope your life leads you back to my door
Oh, but if it don’t, stay beautiful
If you and I are a story
That never gets told
If what you are is a daydream
I’ll never get to hold, at least you’ll know
Your beautiful,
Every little piece, love and don’t you know
You’re really gonna be someone, ask anyone
And when you find everything you’ve looked for
I hope your life leads you back to my front door
Oh, but if it don’t
Will you stay
Beautiful, oh beautiful, oh beautiful
Beautiful, oh beautiful, oh beautiful
Ooooh, whoooa, ooooh
Ooooh, ooooh
Ooooh, whoooa, ooooh
Oh, but if it don’t
Stay beautiful
Stay beautiful
Ladadadada
Should’ve Said No
Should’ve Said No
(Taylor Swift)
It’s strange to think the songs we used to sing
The smiles, the flowers, everything… is gone
Yesterday I found out about you
Even now just looking at you… feels wrong
You say, that you’d take it all back, given one chance
It was a moment of weakness and you said yes…
You should’ve said no, you should’ve gone home
You should have thought twice before you let it all go
You should’ve known that word about what you did with her
Get back to me… (Get back to me)
And I should’ve been there, in the back of your mind
Shouldn’t be asking myself why
You shouldn’t be begging for forgiveness at my feet
You should’ve said no, baby and you might still have me
You can see that I’ve been crying
Baby you know all the right things… to say
But do you, honestly expect me to believe
We could ever be the same…
You say, that the past is the past, you need one chance
It was a moment of weakness and you said yes…
You should’ve said no, you should’ve gone home
You should have thought twice before you let it all go
You should’ve known that word about what you did with her
Get back to me… (Get back to me)
And I should’ve been there, in the back of your mind
Shouldn’t be asking myself why
You shouldn’t be begging for forgiveness at my feet
You should’ve said no, baby and you might still have me
Oh whoa oh
I can’t resist… before you go tell me this
Was it worth it…
Was she worth this…
No….no, no, no, no, no…
You should’ve said no, you should’ve gone home
You should have thought twice before you let it all go
You should’ve known that word about what you did with her
Get back to me… (Get back to me)
And I should’ve been there, in the back of your mind
Shouldn’t be asking myself why
You shouldn’t be begging for forgiveness at my feet
You should’ve said no, baby and you might still have me…
Mary’s Song (Oh My My My)
Mary’s Song (Oh My My My)
[Brian Dean Maher/Liz Rose/Taylor Swift]
She said, I was seven and you were nine
I looked at you like the stars that shined
In the sky, the pretty lights
And our daddies used to joke about the two of us
Growing up and falling in love and our mamas smiled
And rolled their eyes and said, oh, my, my, my
Take me back to the house in the backyard tree
Said you’d beat me up, you were bigger than me
You never did, you never did
Take me back to when our world was one block wide
I dared you to kiss me and ran when you tried
Just two kids, you and I…
Oh my, my, my, my
Well, I was sixteen when suddenly
I wasn’t that little girl you used to see
But your eyes still shined like pretty lights
And our daddies used to joke about the two of us
They never believed we’d really fall in love
And our mamas smiled and rolled their eyes
And said, oh, my, my, my…
Take me back to the creek beds we turned up
Two a.m. riding in your truck and all I need is you next to me
Take me back to the time when we had our very first fight
The slamming of doors instead of kissing goodnight
You stayed outside till the morning light
Oh, my, my, my, my
A few years had gone and come around
We were sitting at our favorite spot in town
And you looked at me, got down on one knee
Take me back to the time when we walked down the aisle
Our whole town came and our mamas cried
You said I do and I did too
Take me home where we met so many years before
We’ll rock our babies on the very front porch
After all this time, you and I
But I’ll be eighty-seven and you’ll be eighty-nine
I’ll still look at you like the stars that shine
In the sky, oh, my, my, my…
Our Song [Radio Single Version]
Our Song [Radio Single Version]
(Taylor Swift)
I was riding shotgun with my hair undone
In the front seat of his car
He’s got a one-hand feel on the steering wheel
The other on my heart
I look around, turn the radio down
He says “Baby is something wrong?”
I say “Nothing I was just thinking how we don’t have a song”
And he says…
Our song is a slammin’ screen door
Sneakin’ out late, tapping on your window
When we’re on the phone and you talk real slow
Cause it’s late and your mamma don’t know
Our song is the way you laugh
The first date, “Man, I didn’t kiss her, and I should have”
And when I got home …before I said amen
Asking God if He could play it again
I was walking up my front porch steps after
everything that day
Had gone all wrong and been trampled on
And lost and thrown away
Got to the hallway, well on my way
to my lovin’ bed,
I almost didn’t notice all the roses
And the note that said…
Our song is a slammin’ screen door
Sneakin’ out late, tapping on your window
When we’re on the phone and you talk real slow
Cause it’s late and your mamma don’t know
Our song is the way you laugh
The first date, “Man, I didn’t kiss her, and I should have”
And when I got home …before I said amen
Asking God if He could play it again
Ladadada
I’ve heard every album, listened to the radio (echoes)
Waitin’ for something to come along
That was as good as our song…
Cause our song is a slammin’ screen door
Sneaking out late, tappin’ on his window
When we’re on the phone and he talks real slow
Cause it’s late and his mama don’t know
Our song is the way he laughs
The first date “Man, I didn’t kiss him, and I should have”
And when I got home, before I said amen
Asking God if He could play it again…
Play it again… oh, yeah…
Uh, oh yeah
I was riding shotgun with my hair undone
In the front seat of his car
I grabbed a pen and an old napkin
And I wrote down our song
I’m Only Me When I’m With You
I’m Only Me When I’m With You
(Angelo/Robert Ellis Orrall/Taylor Swift)
Friday night beneath the stars
In a field behind your yard
You and I are painting pictures in the sky
Sometimes we don’t say a thing
Just listen to the crickets sing
Everything I need is right here by my side
And I know everything about you
I don’t wanna live without you
I’m only up when you’re not down
Don’t wanna fly if you’re still on the ground
It’s like no matter what I do
Well, you drive me crazy half the time
The other half I’m only trying
To let you know that what I feel is true
And I’m only me when I’m with you
Just a small-town boy and girl
Living in the crazy world
Trying to figure out what is and isn’t true
And I don’t try to hide my tears
My secrets or my deepest fears
Through it all nobody gets me like you do
And you know everything about me
You say that you can’t live without me
I’m only up when you’re not down
Don’t wanna fly if you’re still on the ground
It’s like no matter what I do
Well, you drive me crazy half the time
The other half I’m only trying
To let you know that what I feel is true
And I’m only me when I’m with you
When I’m with anybody else
It’s so hard to be myself
And only you can say
That I’m only up when you’re not down
Don’t wanna fly if you’re still on the ground
It’s like no matter what I do
Well, you drive me crazy half the time
The other half I’m only trying
To let you know that what I feel is true
And I’m only me, who I wanna be
Well, I’m only me when I’m with you, with you
Uh huh uh, yeah
Invisible
Invisible
(Robert Elliss Orrall/Taylor Swift)
She can’t see the way your eyes
Will light up when you smile
She’ll never notice how you stop and stare
Whenever she walks by
And you can’t see me wanting you the way
you want her
But you are everything to me
And I just wanna show you
She don’t even know you
She’s never gonna love you like I want to
And you just see right through me
But if you only knew me
We could be a beautiful miracle, unbelievable
Instead of just invisible
Yeah, yeah
There’s a fire inside of you
That can’t help but shine through
She’s never gonna see the light
No matter what you do
And all I think about is how to make you
think of me
And everything that we could be
And I just wanna show you
She don’t even know you
She’s never gonna love you like I want to
And you just see right through me
but if you only knew me
We could be a beautiful miracle, unbelievable
Instead of just invisible
Like shadows in a faded light
Oh, we’re invisible
I just wanna open your eyes
And make you realize
And I just wanna show you
She don’t even know you
Baby let me love you, let me want you
You just see right through me
But if you only knew me
We could be a beautiful miracle, unbelievable
Instead of just invisible, oh, oh, yeah
She can’t see the way your eyes
Light up when you smile
A Perfectly Good Heart
A Perfectly Good Heart
(Brett James/Taylor Swift/Troy Verges)
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart
Why would you wanna take our love and tear it all
apart now
Why would you wanna make the very first scar
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart
Maybe I should’ve seen the signs, should’ve
read the writing on the wall
And realized by the distance in your eyes
that I would be the one to fall
No matter what you say I still can’t believe
That you would walk away
It don’t make sense to me but
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart
Why would you wanna take our love and tear it all
apart now
Why would you wanna make the very first scar
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart
It’s not unbroken anymore
How do I get it back the way it was before
Why would you wanna break a perfectly
good heart
Why would you wanna take our love and
tear it all apart now
Why would you wanna make the very first scar
Why would you wanna break, (why) would you wanna
break a
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart
Why would you wanna take our love and tear it all
apart now
Why would you wanna make the very first scar
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart
Mmmmmmm….
