Guts and soul You need guts and soul Guts and soul You need guts and soul To get you by You outlived 9 lives Your chance to go has come many times World War II went by Brought shrapnel back in your chest just to show Guts and soul You need guts and soul Guts and soul You need guts and soul To get you by Don't hear the doubts in your mind You could have quit but it wasn't your time Blew off a roof now twice In a body cast nine months of your life Guts and soul You need guts and soul Guts and soul You need guts and soul To get you by And just how did you make sense? This world has lost me in the time I have spent There's no clear answers out there Just tools you need when your time ain't come yet Guts and soul You need guts and soul Guts and soul You need guts and soul To get you by Guts and soul To get you by

Now I'm all banged up, I'm black and blue And what's been messing with me's Made a mess of you And I'm hopin' my life's got a path to get you back Cuz I was stupid and dumb and I just found out all that And I apologize some more Just can miss you anymore Now I'm all banged up, I'm black and blue And I went through the windshield When I drove away from you Now I'm all banged up, I'm black and blue Not much that my records can't get me through But all my favorite words just take me Right back to you And you poked out my perpetual wandering eye And I still wanna be the man that's With you for a lifetime through I was stupid to ignore The reasons you came for Now I'm all banged up, I'm black and blue And I went through the windshield When I drove away from you Now I'm crying like a boy That's never gonna get you back Now I'm all banged up, I'm black and blue I was stupid to ignore The reasons you came for Now I'm all banged up, I'm black and blue And I went through the windshield When I drove away from you Now I'm crying like a boy That's never gonna get you back Now I'm all banged up, I'm black and blue I'm all banged up, I'm black and blue

Somehow you're kinda cute with your whimsical smile No security, no I'm along for the ride Mind changes every minute now here we go Are you dragging me along? Are you dragging me down? You're the one that I adore But somehow I'm all alone And I forgot your we're the main event And you see this as a partnership Spotlight hits you, I'm the one it'll miss Are you ready for the crowd? Get ready for the crowd You're the main event Caught me 'cause you're a thrill like a shooting star But those burn bright and don't go very far And I'd hoped that our tickets went many miles World spins around you and I'm dizzy tired You're the one that I adore But somehow I'm all alone And I forgot your we're the main event And you see this as a partnership Spotlight hits you, I'm the one it'll miss Are you ready for the crowd? Get ready for the crowd You're the main event And the more that I try I get lost with you You're not who I knew And if I question my mind I will lose me too Lose me too You're the one that I adore But somehow I'm all alone And I forgot your we're the main event And you see this as a partnership Spotlight hits you, I'm the one it'll miss Are you ready for the crowd? Get ready for the crowd You're the main event

Lazy Eye 02:18
Waitresses and barstools Kept me high when I was feeling low And when the night sky, was like an empty room I still saw you as the star that shined [chorus] I've got a lazy eye It don't like to look away when you walk by I've got a lazy eye I've got a lazy eye A polite guy, except my eye's rude No offense but he'll just stare all night And if you're making plans, well I could use a few I could float around you like a satellite I've got a lazy eye It don't like to look away when you walk by I've got a lazy eye The reflection in my lazy eye, is only you tonight You're the star of my empty sky won't you let me shine with you for awhile I've got a lazy eye It don't like to look away when you walk by I've got a lazy eye When you walk by You're the star of my empty sky

Murder in the first, degree The reason in his eye, has deceased He was something more She gave him a life, a heartbeat A look ten smiles wide, a true belief A place where he was more And you should've seen how he had lived before He was a fire Now he's just hot coals without you The crystal ball of fate, decides How much we can take, of the good kind What right arm loss is for Now Makers makes it's mark, he gets by Shaking thoughts inside, where she hides Won't leave him alone And you should've seen how he had lived before He was a fire Now he's just hot coals without you And you should've seen how he had lived before He was a fire Now he's just hot coals without you He was a fire

We're all hoping to find Our own everything And unlock the doors To where we want to be And hours race with time some more They won't say to you what's in store There's no guarantees Don't hold your breath for anything There's no guarantees Just hang on tight to what you need With every corner we find A little more to see But all we know Is what this moment brings Tomorrow comes alive some more Go and place your bets on what's in store There's no guarantees Don't hold your breath for anything There's no guarantees Just hang on tight to what you need And hours race with time some more They won't say to you what's in store Tomorrow comes alive some more Go and place your bets on what's in store There's no guarantees Don't hold your breath for anything There's no guarantees Just hang on tight to what you need

about

Tad Overbaugh Boston, Massachusetts

Tad Overbaugh & the Late Arrivals are a 4-piece, heartland inspired, rock 'n' roll band from Boston, MA. Driving down that highway
of roots-rock, alt-country, midwestern tinged power-pop and classic country influences. Tad Overbaugh's songs fall somewhere between the twang of Steve Earle, the gritty dive bar pop of Twin/Tone and chimey, hook-filled songwriting of Tom Petty.
