She knew she’d sleep tonight Without a tablet If she could check it one more time There’s nothing else they need
 they’ve got the number
 should penance ever fit the crime Bridges and tunnels 
the edge of the world Burning Brooklyn Bridge by night 
dreaming of the waves of love Captured by the signal lights Blinking like the stars above He swore they’d move this train So much faster If only they could see his face Or knew what he had packed 
so lean and careful in his Worn-out old attache case Bridges and tunnels
 the edge of the world Got to understand, this is Something different A party for the end of days How could you believe you could Catch us in Jersey We’ll swear we’re only stowaways Bridges and tunnels 
the edge of the world Burning Brooklyn Bridge by night 
dreaming of the waves of love Captured by the signal lights Blinking like the stars above

I probably ought to be working harder than I have been But I don’t know if it’ll matter in the end I watch another hurricane gather the gales into a tailspin I guess we picked the wrong god to offend I’ve been making ends meet for what feels like a lifetime A little bit here and a little bit there I still keep an eye on the horizon for a lifeline A place to call home and someone to care I don’t have any honor to defend Standing here between the sinner and the sin I’ll keep fighting the good fight but know I won’t win All of which is to say not much has changed and how have you been? I sold the old house where we used to live in Arlington To a young couple stumbling into century twenty one Thought I might like the view a little higher up the mountain More looking for peace, less chasing fun I made some friends and we play music in the evenings We play some Gram and we play some Flatt and Scruggs I can almost hear your voice on those high harmonies And I can almost see you there cutting a rug I don’t have any honor to defend Standing here between the sinner and the sin I’ll keep fighting the good fight but know I won’t win All of which is to say not much has changed and how have you been?

verse F Bb Dm b section Gm C F Dm Gm C Bb F chorus Am Bb C As I Stroll Through The Night I walk in the shadows of another night awash in the glow of the blue light the sidewalks are sleeping the windows are closed no one is speaking and nobody knows I live in the static of the times I wait for the coming of the next alibi I hear a whisper it’s music to my ears disguised by the sorrow and blind by the tears As I stroll through the night As I stroll through the night I hear the voice of a stranger calling out I turn around to see I fear the worst is coming and feel myself falling a curse thats warning taking over me As I stroll through the night As I stroll through the night the sidewalks are sleeping the windows are closed no one is speaking and nobody knows

about

The assignment this week is from Corky, way down in Texas:

“How about this. Write a song with distinctive verses, b-sections and chorus' moving the first chord of each up a step. Example...If the first chord in your verses is a D, then your b sections will start with an E and your chorus' will start with an F. It doesn't matter what chord you start with...you just move up from there single steps.“
