lyrics

Pocket Book by Todd Burge
Todd plays this song in regular tuning.
Chords include A, Bm, G & D

I could live in a paper bag
Filled with nothing but some air
And my dreams would still be in it
As long as I breathed in there

My hands have only touched a new guitar
And played it until it has turned old
They’ve never seen dirt or blood
I feel real lucky
Even when they’re cold

I feel nice but I was mean when younger
Don’t have a lot
But I don’t have hunger

I’ve got a pocket book with something in it
I changed my mind
Now there’s something in it
I clear my throat
Now I can sing it
I’ve got a pocket book
With something in it

I met you once
But I forgot your name
I lost the napkin
With your number on it
Let’s start this whole thing
Over again
I’ve done things wrong
But I’m stronger from it
