Sing To Me (For Bridget)

Whispers that feather through a breeze
Sweet little angel sing to me
Why won’t you ever talk to me?
Hopeful forever, listening
Run little angel, run to me
Sweet little darling wander free
Whispers of sunshine through the trees
Colours of summer glistening
Thoughts through our words are not easy
Smiles though your eyes speak cleverly
Run little darling run from me
Sing little angel and be free—ee free—ee
SOLO: (3 repetitions)
Thoughts through our words are not easy
Smiles though your eyes speak cleverly
Run little darling run from me
Sing little angel and be free—ee free—ee

Cold Canadian Night
03:19
|
|||
Drifting away on a cold Canadian night
First snow is falling and the ground is virgin white
Been working these factory floors … For most of my life
Just to bring home my pay … For my warm loving wife
Instrumental (Verse)
I found my love on a cold Canadian night
Skating through the December wind
It was love at first sight
Chorus
She’s all that I want; And she’s all that I need
She means everything to me
Instrumental (Verse)
Solo (play Chorus):
Walking home again on a cold Canadian night
Through the blowing snow… I see my front porch light
There’s a crackling fire and she’s just out of sight
She’s in my arms … holding me tight
Chorus
She’s all that I want, and she’s all that I need
On a cold cold Canadian night
On a cold cold Canadian night
On a cold cold …. Canadian night … (Canadian night)

Talking To Myself
05:32
|
|||
Verse:
I just can’t escape
all the thoughts in my head
All the things that I’ve done
and the words that I’ve said
Just another night
getting out of my head
Another cup of cold coffee
and I’m full of regret
Verse RIFF:
Verse:
Now I’m back in her arms,
I’m not immune to her charms
What am I doing here?
I didn’t mean any harm
Gotta get myself straight,
You know I just can’t wait
Gotta get myself gone
before it’s too late
Half Verse RIFF:
Chorus:
I’m talking to myself again,
I’m talking to myself again
I’m talking to myself again,
And again and again and again
Verse RIFF:
Verse:
Too many thoughts
running through my mind
Too many people
and not enough time
I can’t do it all
you know I’m just one man
Too many problems
in the palm of my hand
Bridge:
Chorus:
I’m talking to myself again,
I’m talking to myself again
I’m talking to myself again,
And again, and again, and again …
Solo:
Breakdown:
There's too many thoughts
running through my mind
Too many problems
and not enough time
Too many people to nurture to please
I'm pulling my hair out,
I'm down on my knees
I gotta' get up and get myself straight
I gotta' get right before it's too late
Am I thinking too much,
Am i goin insane?
Why do these thoughts
keep running in my brain
They keep running and running
and running away
They keep running here we go again
They keep running and running and running away
They keep running running here we gooooooo ...
Half Verse RIFF
Chorus:
I’m talking to myself again,
I’m talking to myself again
I’m talking to myself again,
And again, and again, and again …

Home For Christmas
03:17
|
|||
I’m coming home for Christmas, after 9 days on the road
Just my guitar on my back
It’s a he-a-vy load
I can’t wait to see you, I can’t wait to be home
I’m getting tired of living
Like a rolling stone

I’m coming home
I’m coming home home home
I’m coming home, I’m coming home
I’m coming home to you for Christmas tonight
Solo: (Play Verse 2x)
Bridge:
And may all your dreams come true
And may your Christmas day be white
I’m coming home to you for Christmas tonight
All our friends will be there, And all the family too,
And all our loved ones who’ve passed on, We’ll be thinking of you
Christmas tree and candles and baby what a big surprise!
Coming home to see you with the love-light in your eyes
Chorus: (Violin Starts)
Bridge: (Jingle Bells start)

I Will Remember
04:58
|
|||
Verse:
Girl, its breaking my heart what they’re saying about you
Well tell me please oh baby, tell me it just ain’t true
Cuz now I look in your eyes and I see what I’m feeling
Oh I’m feeling, I’m feeling that I’m losing you
As I look I remember all the times we had
Broken hearted memories, you've taken the very best part of me
Girl you know I can't stay, not EVEN one day
Like an old photograph, you're just a piece of the past, a burning memory
Double Chorus:
I’ll remember you …. I will always remember you
How can I ever forget you?
I’ll remember you …. I will always remember you
How can I forget you? Forget you …
Recitation:
And now as I keep falling, falling from your pedestal your ledge,
Falling from my tears, my thoughts, my dreams, my life, my soul
I scream … but never to be heard, or felt, or seen
But I know I’ve lost my dream
Chorus:
I’ll remember you …. I will always remember you
How can I forget you? Forget you …
Empty Verse: (Play Verse – Chord Stabs)
Fadeout Verse + Solo:
As one door closes another opens
and dreams disappear and come true all at once
like an opening of an eye from a dreamless state
and I'm losing you…
Oooo oooo … oooo oooo … Oooo Baby … I'll Always Remember You …
[repeat – ad lib – and fade]

Sing To Me (Another Day)
03:50
|
|||
Whispers are falling from the trees
Red, orange, yellow shine from green
Noises are ringing in my ears
Please won't you make them disappear
Run to me Daddy, play with me
Sing, sing forever and be free, free
Whispers of winter are now here,
Words like the leaves have disappeared
Why do you try to talk to me?
Love doesn't speak, it sings to me
Sing to me Daddy, Sing to me
Sing, sing forever and be free, free

Shattervox Toronto, Ontario
Shattervox kick out the jams with muscular classic rock flair. With a sound so minimal it's monumental, Shattervox's first single "Grand Mal Seizure" carries on the tradition of 60's garage rock and proto-punk acts. Much like their live performances, the debut album "Before There Was No After" carries with it a sense of palpable tension - a nervous energy with a message. ... more
