GRACE NOTES
Music and lyrics by Muriah Rose

On the road, fourth of July.
Fireworks blossom against that Wyoming sky.
We all cheered, but the babies all cried.
I’m just taking grace notes tonight.

Step into a bar, neon lights.
Band played Poncho and Lefty
brought tears to my eyes.
Rodeo riders all danced with their wives.
I’m just taking grace notes tonight.

Chorus:
We’ve got bodies made of the stuff of stars,
but they’re clumsy and easily scarred.
Tender heartbeat beneath the clay -
We always mean more than we ever say.

Go to bed, kiss goodnight.
Laugh at ourselves as we turn out the light.
Hold your hand in the darkness, it’ll be alright.
I’m just taking grace notes tonight.

Chorus:
We’ve got bodies made of the stuff of stars,
but they’re clumsy and easily scarred.
Tender heartbeat beneath the clay -
We always mean more than we ever say.

Forgive me sweetheart when I don’t get it right;
I’m just taking grace notes tonight.
