One Shot at Redemption
1. SHINE THE LIGHT
Tomorrow never comes, Still got time today,to make it out of the badlands
Sun no longer shines, I don’t really mind, I can learn to love the rain..
Better know what you’re thinking, Better know what you’re saying
Tired of waiting, tired of hesitating …….
CHORUS…..
Shine the light on, Shine the light,
Shine the light on, Shine the light on me..( Anyway you wanna know)
Shine the light on , Shine the light,
Shine the light on, Shine the light on…..
Justified by any means,We got to get to just whatever we need
And the pain runs deep…..
2nd VERSE….
Lay down your arms, Give it all to me,Cause I got love like you’ve never seen
Look inside yourself,just might find the key,That can open any Door..
Better know what you’re thinking, Better know what you’re saying
Tired of waiting, (so) tired of hesitating…..
CHORUS…..
Shine the light on , Shine the light,
Shine the light on, Shine the light on me..( Anyway you wanna know)
Shine the light on , Shine the light,
Shine the light on, Shine the light on
Justified by any means,We got to get to just whatever we need
When the pain runs deep…..
Guitar Solo…….
CHORUS…..
Shine the light on , Shine the light,
Shine the light on, Shine the light on me..( Anyway you wanna know)
Shine the light on , Shine the light,
Shine the light on, Shine the light on
Justified by any means,We got to get to whatever we need
When the pain runs deep…..
2. HOLE IN YOUR HEART
Every cloud has got a silver lining, Now if the truth be told
Every road is kinda long and winding, Maybe it’s because
Every joker’s got a tear to shed, the smile it hides a frown
you can be, oh so lonely, even if you’re centre of the crowd
Let me tell you now…………..
CHORUS…
Shout it out now, Can’t you hear me
Shout it out now, Do what you got to do, Fix that hole in your heart
Say what you wanna Say, Fix that hole right now!
2nd Verse…
Everybody’s Got a cross to bear, a promise that they broke
Everybody’s Got a secret to trade, something right or wrong
Not trying to be no judge nor jury, that ain’t my concern
Just/ need another shot at glory, too many times I’ve been burnt yeah
2nd CHORUS…
Shout it out now, Can’t you hear me
Shout it out now, Do what you got to do, Fix that hole in your heart
Say what you wanna Say, Fix that hole right now!
Mid 8…
Take a long time to get over you, Cried my tears in the rain
Say it now, but can’t tell why, Sure don’t makes no sense…
SOLO..
Final Chorus…
Say what you got to say, things might change
Do what you got to do, kneel and pray
Say what you want,Fix that hole in your heart
Fix that hole in your heart,make a brand new start
Fix that hole now…….
3. ANGEL’S ALLEY
Better not worry about what they say
I’m gonna love you come what may
Sun sinking down, got to tell you just where I’m found
Meet me down Angel’s Alley.
Boys on the corner looking to hurt somebody
Everything here can be bought and sold
They’ll tear you heart and they’ll rip your soul
CHORUS
Stars are shinning bright
Stars are shinning bright tonight
Gonna light our way
Gonna light our way tonight…….
I’ve been a gambler, and I’ll pay for my sins
Time rolls on it’s getting harder to win
Heart got crooked, I can’t go straight
Need something now and then to ease that pain
CHORUS
Stars are shinning bright
Stars are shinning bright tonight
Gonna light our way
Gonna light our way tonight…….
BRIDGE
Down on the corner, out on the streets
They are talking about me, they say I’m beat
They don’t know me, never know my kind
I be there like a thief in the night
SOLO
CHORUS
Stars are shinning bright
Stars are shinning bright tonight
Gonna light our way
Gonna light our way tonight…….
4. LONELY IS THE WORD
5. RUNAWAY TRAIN
Downtown honey with a low cut dress,
Throwin’ out the moves ,got my heart in a mess
Gone, Daddy wanna testify, i’m bound to loose my mind
I’m about to come off the rails… Down in the City, Runaway Train…
Hey tough guy, step aside, Can’t you see I got trouble on my mind
Done my time for my lowdown ways, 2 years four months, 15 days
Back out on the streets again, Roll and tumble, Runaway train…
Runaway train, Runaway train, Etc…
Mid 8…..
Used up all my good time favours, all my I.O.U’s,
Rattled off my best one liners, all of them no use
Struck out all my tough guy moves, they don’t seem to work
Everything I said to that girl, Guess that she’s already heard…
SOLO…..
3rd Speeded Up Verse……
Danced with the Devil in the pale moonlight, Tore up the highway doin’ 99
Across the states i’m wanted dead or alive, It’s all right, I don’t mind
It’s too late, I don’t turn back, Roll and I tumble…
Runaway train …..
Runaway Train, Runaway Train…Runaway,
I’m a Runaway, Got to get away…Here I go…
6. ALL ROADS LEAD TO NOWHERE
State of my addiction, bound to seal my fate
Force of my volition, there’s no turning back
Great White Wilderness, Trying to find my way home
Life’s been no bargain, if the truth be told
Ignored all the warnings,Now i’m paying the cost
Splendid Isolation, Hard To Comprehend
Distant Consolation,almost stole my breath
Days filled with Emptiness, will they’ ever end
I maybe a sinner, i’m surely ain’t no saint
Life can be complex, so let me make it plain
All roads lead to Nowhere, that’s what i’ve found out
No palace of wisdom, I’ve got no doubt
Now I feel the hand of fate,Knocking On my door
One things for certain, one thing’s for sure
I maybe right,i maybe wrong, but my time’s not too long!
GUITAR SOLO
All roads lead to Nowhere, that’s what i’ve found out
No Gold at the end of the rainbow, I’ve got no doubt
Now I feel the hand of fate,Knocking On my door
One things for certain, one thing’s for sure
I maybe right,i maybe wrong, but my time’s not too long!
Good Morning, Good Morning, Storm Warning, Storm Warning
Temptations temptations, Sweet Soul Sensation
7. POLICE ON MY BACK
I got police on my back, got nowhere to run
I got police on my back,nowhere ( left ) to turn

( I’ve been) uptown,downtown, I know my way round….
Final Chorus…
I got police on my back, keep me on the run

8. LONELY ARE THE BRAVE
City lights, see how they burn tonight, who can tell if i’m wrong or right
Battle lines are drawn, Got to heed that call
Stepping out we look e’m in the eye, Coming up the hard way,up for the fight,
Let it be said…Lonely are the brave,
God above, can’t you hear me pray
CHORUS…….
Tell me what I must do, we got to see, Go to see this through
Time is slipping away, so much left to say/ unsaid
Shame On the night, No shelter we could find
Still such a long way from daylight
Somebody, throw me a line…….
2nd VERSE…
Sometimes you get so alone, It all makes sense
Working real hard, on the art of Recklessness..
Let it be said…Lonely are the brave,
God above, can’t you hear me pray……
CHORUS…….
Tell me what I must do, we got to see, Go to see this through
Time is slipping away, so much left to say/unsaid
Shame On the night, No shelter we could find
Still such a long way , from daylight
Somebody, throw me a line…….
SOLO……………
3RD VERSE…..
It’s like tearing up, my heart with a worn and rusty nail
Making me feel, like I wish’d I never felt…
Should have known, should have tried
No where left to run and hide, Welcome back,fear and pain my friends..
CHORUS…….
Tell me what I must do, we got to see, Go to see this through
Time is slipping away, so much left to say/ unsaid
Shame On the night, No shelter we could find
Still such a long way from daylight
Somebody, Somebody……throw me a line……
9. OUTLAW’S LAMENT
I tried and I tried, Tried to walk the straight Line,
Something All ways , Made me slip and stray
Seen All My Dreams, Broken one by one
How much Pain can a poor man stand
Outside The Siren’s Wailing’
Nerves are Shot,Hands Are Shaking
This was never ever part of the plan
If I can Make it to that Door, Me and my 44
Still There Might Be A chance For Me…..
Out On That Road, Long And Lonesome Hard Road
Shooting Star Above , Lights My Way
Lawman On My Trail, Never Gonna Let Me Rest
Wants To Teach Me, Crime, It Don’t Pay………
Roamed and Rambled Like a Ragged Wheel,
Trying To Find a Place To Rest And Sleep
People Don’t Forgive, and Don’t Forget
Fast Hands and a Reckless Heart, Played their part in my downfall
Morning Sun Must Find Me On My Feet………
GUITAR SOLO…………
I tried and I Tried, Tried To Walk The Straight Line,
Something All Ways, Makes Me Slip and Stray
Seen all my Dreams Broke One by One
How Much Pain can a Poor Man Stand,
Got To ,Got To, Got To, Getaway,
I Guess, Blues are Gonna Be My only Way,
Trying So Hard To Getaway…
Hey Hey… Hey Hey …..etc
10. DEMOLITION BLUES
I’ve got my head on straight, Got everything I need
I Feel the walls are closing in,Heart’s Gathering Speed
On my horizon,Clouds are turned black,
I can’t wait on the sun, I might never make it back..
CHORUS….
I keep wondering, I wonder ,what i’got to do
About the rain falling down, Holes in my shoes
And I thought about it,for such a long time,
I’m gonna pay it no mind, leave it all behind…
Always on the dark side( of the road)
Always at the wrong time( all i’ve ever known)
Always in the corner, Always on my own….
CHORUS……
I keep wondering, I wonder ,what i’m gonna do
About these voices in my head,Demolition Blues
I had me a fever, When I was just a child,
I dreamt that Sun was shining, there was an angel by my side
sun was shining, and my future looked bright…
……… SOLO………….
Always on the dark side( of the road)
Always at the wrong time( all i’ve ever known)
Always in the corner, Always on my own
I keep wondering, I wonder ,what i’m gonna do
About these voices in my head,Demolition Blues
I had me a dream, When I was just a child,
I dreamt that Sun was shining, there was an angel by my side
I dreamt that Sun Was Shining, and I was bathing in the Light
I dreamt that sun was shining, and my future looked
bright,bright….Rolling/All Way Down The Line
11. TEARS ARE ROLLING
Tears are rolling, Tears are Rolling
Tears are Rolling, Rolling down like rain,
Tears are Rolling, rolling down, Roll and Stumble to the ground like Rain
Got to find me something, Got to find some ways to ease this pain..
Trying to find me something, Hide that lonesome pain…
Wind is Howling, Wind is howling
Shakin’ down the leaves from the sycamore tree
Wind is howling, really howling,
Shaking down the leaves from the sycamore tree
I can’t tell you darling, What’s it gonna be,
Who’s to say now darling, what becomes of me…
SOLO…………………
Tired of Running, Tired of running
Got to find me some solid ground,
Tired of running, tired of hiding, got to find me some Solid ground,
You might not believe this, Poor boy is Heaven Bound
So hard to believe this, Poor boy is heaven bound
You might not believe this poor boy
So Hard to believe this Poor boy is…
Heaven Bound, Heaven bound,Heaven Bound….Heaven..
12. THE LAST OUTLAW
I wandered lonely as a cloud, through this rugged promised land
Found a reason for my rage, I found comfort in my pain,
Kicked me out of Heaven,( My) heart’s got torn and frayed
But I landed on my feet, and a price on my head…..
CHORUS…
Back on the run now, (that’s) all I’ve known..
There’s a darkness, deep in my soul
Tried and I tried, i’m no good..
I’m damaged, so much damaged..
I’m trouble, so much trouble…
2nd Verse
Tried to break my shackles, and i tried to break my chains.
But every time i’ve landed, in a cold and lonely place,
Words have been spoken, and the dice it might be cast
But i’ve got nothing to lose, nothing to gain, no future and no past
CHORUS
Back on the run now, that’s all I’ve known..
There’s a darkness, deep in my soul
Tried and I tried, i’m no good..
I’m damaged, so much damaged..
I’m trouble, so much trouble…
MID 8..
If you follow my path, better take heed, or you won’t last
Better dry your tears, face all your fears, see you on that road
(On and on, with the heavy load),
CHORUS…
Back on the run now, that’s all I’ve known..
There’s a darkness, deep in my soul
Tried and I tried, i’m no good..
I’m damaged, so much damaged..
I’m trouble, so much trouble…
I’m an outlaw, the last outlaw…
I’m a Renegade, the last renegade…
MAGIC BULLETS
1. THIS TIME
Sunday morning 3am standing outside the city jail
One more chance to start over again
Made up my mind,No turning back
Out in the streets nothings changed
I might learn to forgive but I'll never forget
Did what I did but I got no regrets
And no ones seen the best of me yet!
This time I'm ready for anything!
This time I'll take on anyone
This time I believe in me
Don't need anything to see me through......
Back on the streets it all looks the same
Whores, cops, junkies getting in my way!
Read your mind you think I'm damned
Only way for the lonely and the brave.
This time I'm ready for anything!
This time I'll take on anyone
This time I believe in me
Don't need anything to see me through
Don't need anyone to show me the way......
Looking back I should have seen it coming
All the troubles in my life
Who can tell just where I went wrong
Don't really care this time I got to stay
Stay on the line, stay on the line...yeah!
SOLO
This time I'm ready for anything!
This time I'll take on anyone
This time I believe in me
Don't need anything to see me through
Don't need anyone to show me the way
Cause I can see the writing on the wall
No ones there to catch my fall
I can hear the wolves outside my door
It won't be long, it won't be long
It won't be long.... yeah!
2. BITE THE BULLET
Waiting for my fall like to see my crawl
Like to see me bent and broke with my begging bowl
Wipe out their smile ,cut em' down to size
Take no shit, cut no slack I'll walk the crooked line
Come and get me can't hurt me
won't break me, can't take me.... huh x2
For I was born to bite the bullet
Raised to take the falls
Got to see this to the end
Keep on keeping on x3
We dare to cross the line, got to pay the price
Speak our minds seek the truth and feed the fire inside
No one we can trust fight on we must
Samurai in our blood, battles to be won
Come 'n get me can't hurt me
Won't break me can't take me....huh x2
For I was born to bite the bullet
Raised to take the falls
Got to see this to the end
Keep on keeping on x3
SOLO
For I was born to bite the bullet
Raised to take the falls
Got to see this to the end
Keep on keeping on x3
3. HEAVEN'S GATE
Willow weep cry a little tear for me
Don't let anyone know how I'm feeling inside
Twist and turn nowhere left to run
Sometimes all you got left is your pride
What's it all worth in the long run
I gotta pay for my mistakes
Keep on knocking but they won't let me in
Keep me hanging on...by heaven's gate
Talking tough it's a shaky front
Deep inside I'm scared like anyone else
It's no shame to fall flat on your face
Pick up all the piece get back in the race
What can I say all said and done
What can I do no stone unturned
I keep on knocking but they won't let me in
Keep me hanging on....by heaven's gate
SOLO
Cut runs deep it takes time to heel
Got to roll with the punches to get to what is real
It's not shame to fall flat on your face
Pick up the pieces get back in the race
What's it all worth in the long run
I gotta pay for my mistakes
Keep on knocking but they won't let me in
Keep me hanging on...by heaven's gate
SOLO
4. NIGHT COMES CRAWLING
Stone cold morning,Without any warning
Knocking at your door strong arm of the law
Boys in blue wanna mess with you.. huh!
Looks like your running out of friends
Seems like you're back in the thick of it
Better think twice gotta get wise
Throw away the gun don't be messing with the knife
Out on the mean streets better keep your slate clean
Look for the back stabbers watch out for the dirty deal
Night comes crawling look I'm falling
Night comes crawling looks like I'm falling down
Gotta get out someway somehow
Gotta get right out of here better be gone
So long come on come on......yeah let's do it now
Hey now what you gonna do
Soon enough, gonna have to face the truth
All your dreams gone up in smoke
Hard to tell friend from foe
Word is on the street you're about to go down
Too many people don't want you around
Monkey on your back keeps getting stronger
Don't think you're gonna last much longer
Night comes crawling look I'm falling
Night comes crawling looks like I'm falling down
Gotta get out someway somehow
Gotta get right out of here better be gone
So long come on come on......yeah let's do it now
SOLO
Night comes crawling look I'm falling
Night comes crawling looks like I'm falling down
Gotta get out someway somehow

So long come on come on......yeah let's do it now
5. BURN
Back stabbing money grabbing feet dragging piece of slim
get out of my way
Crooked tongue should be hung manufactured shallow junk
I won't play your game
Quick to see the dollar sign,the meal ticket, no pride
You got a one track mind
No mistake I'm on the case gonna put you in your place
It's just a matter of time
I see you you, you doing it again now I know
You'll always be the same
I guess you'll never change ..you got no shame
I know who to blame
I said burn burn burn see you burn x2
Got to burn you're gonna burn burn it all down
GUITAR BREAK
Read about your suicide, fucking parasite see me shed no tears
Kids looking up to you, writing up on you, blond leading the bland
Pictures in the magazine nice clean teeth
I guess you made the grade
Money talks money walks,but all in all you make my skin crawl
I see you I can't let you win
I can't let it roll over I think it's a sin
I can't do it man I can't let you win
I said burn burn burn see you burn x2
Got to burn watch you burn see you burn burn it all down
6. ON MY WAY
7. STOLE MY BREATH
God only knows how I met you
Heaven can wait till I get to you
All the time I been running
Pretty soon I'll be winning
I've got to let you know
You came along and you stole my breath
You came along and you stole my breath
You came along and you stole my breath
No one can tell how I want you
No one can feel how I'm feeling
All the times I was running
Soon enough I'll be winning
I gotta let you know
You came along and you stole my breath
You came along and you stole my breath
You came along and you stole my breath
Picking up the pieces of my broken heart
Trying to make some kind of brand new start
But it's so hard when you're all alone
I know that I'm falling
Can't you hear my heart calling
You came along and you stole my breath
You came along and you stole my breath
You came along and you stole my breath
All the times I was running
Soon enough I'll be winning
I gotta let you know
You came along and you stole my breath
You came along and you stole my breath
You came along and you stole my breath
8. A MATTER OF TIME
Sending out an SOS into the heart of loneliness
Cause I've been there and I know the score
Who's to say if you're right or wrong
If hands of fate don't play your song
Better walk that walk instead of talking about it!
I'm gonna be alright it's gonna work out fine
It's just a matter of time it's just a matter of...
Rage hard, don't loose your grip
Move fast shoot from the hip
And if you stumble you better get up
This world don't give a damn nobody's gonna give you a break
If you want it you better go out and get it!
I'm gonna be alright it's gonna work out fine
It's just a matter of time it's just a matter of...
MIDDLE 8
Some things we can't choose
Down the line we got to pay them dues
Hey! What you gonna do?
I'm gonna be alright it's gonna work out fine
It's just a matter of time it's just a matter of...
OUTRO
Sometimes.... not enough not enough
Sometimes.... not enough for me x2
Better learn to dig in deep ,put your heart on your sleeve
Up to you to walk the line, only you can roll the dice
Better learn to take them blows otherwise you will never know
If the price is worth the pain ,have you got what it takes..
9. LAUGHING AT THE HURRICANE
Raised up on the backstreets took what we could get
Taking all our chances never looking back
Some are born with everything handed on a plate
Then there is the other kind making our own breaks
I said
Looking like an outlaw taking like a thief
Blues is my companion troubles running deep
See me laugh at the hurricane taking on the storm
All the times I got kicked around only made me strong
I said
Calling out to the angels hear my plea got to tell you I'm in need
See it all now slipping away got to make my get away
What I say....
Like a man on a mission don't think I can rest
Crazy dreams running in my head pushin me to the edge
See me laugh at the hurricane taking on the storm
All the times I got kicked around only made me strong
I said
Calling out to the angels hear my plea got to tell you I'm in need
See it all now slippin away got to make my get away
What I say..
What I said..
What are you gonna do now when it all comes down
Yeah yeah...if you got the will to see it through
I believe thats what you got to do
Here comes the hurricane..
10. HUNGRY AND THE HUNTED
See me dancing on my grave, salvation it’s too late
Road forever running blind who can tell what we’ll find…yeah
You know me ,you know my kind ,heart on sleeve soul on line
Must compete keep an eye on the score
Hit the hammer let it roll
Better hit the hammer and let it roll
Hungry and the hunted gotta keep on running
Every time we rise we got the guts the will to survive x2
Alright
GUITAR SOLO
Reckless like the howling wind don’t you tell me I can’t win
Blood sweat toil and tears, battle scares earned down the years…yeah
You know me you know my kind heart on sleeve soul on line

Hit the hammer let it roll
Better hit the hammer and let it roll
Stay hungry and the hunted gotta keep on running
Every time we rise we got the guts the will to survive x4
Do what we can we will survive
11. ALWAYS OUTNUMBERED ALWAYS OUTGUNNED
I got pains in my heart that just won't heal
In life nothing ever comes cheap
Stranded in the ghetto but I'm looking at the stars
Can't go back cause I've gone too far
No matter what I do no matter where I turn
Always outnumbered always outgunned
Realise I've been there before
Hard times on the killing floor
Feel like a riot tear up this place
Burn it all down start over again
I've been neaten blooded broken n' bruised
When you've got nothing you got nothing to loose
No matter what I do no matter where I turn
Always outnumbered always outgunned
Realise I've been there before
Hard times on the killing floor
I can't tell I don't know just what I need
I can't say I don't care what tomorrow may bring
It doesn't matter now it's nothing to me x2
It means nothing to me it mean nothing at all
I'm down in the street running with the outlaws
GUITAR SOLO
Realise I've been there before
Hard times on the killing floor
No matter what I do no matter where I turn
Always outnumbered always outgunned
Realise I've been there before
Hard times on the killing floor
12. TILL THE MORNING
One more road one more town
Just another heartbreak don't let it get you down don't let it get you down
Ghosts on the highway calling out your name
Don't even think about it don't you look back
You can never go back
Got to make it to the morning
Trying to make it till the morning
If I can make it to the morning
Trying to make it till the morning
Gamblers and outlaws on a one way ride
Seek out their fortune into the arms of the night
Never know what you'll find
Got to make it to the morning
Trying to make it till the morning
If I can make it to the morning
Trying to make it till the morning
For who the bell tolls only time will tell
Got to keep your nerve now be quick or be dead
Forgive but don't forget
SOLO
Got to make it to the morning
Trying to make it till the morning
If I can make it to the morning
Trying to make it till the morning
OUTRO
