Velvet Guitar - Alejandro Escovedo

My hands are turning numb

But i still gotta strum

My Velvet guitar

And i don’t care how long

Might write a sad one

But who’s gonna sing them this time

My hands are turning numb

But i still gotta strum

My Velvet guitar

And i don’t care how long

Exactly what went wrong

But who’s gonna blame him

This time -----

A rooster’s in the trees

But he can’t crow for me

He’s wasted his time

He lost track of how long

Exactly what went wrong

But who’s gonna blame him

This time?

I hear her sing for me

But she won’t cry for me

I’m wasted, inside -----

She’s too cool to come down

And dance to a sad one

But who’s gonna blame her this

Time ----------

Not gonna break him down
