MUSTANG BY RENU
Verse 1
On a mustang
In her dance shoes she would pose
On accordian, I'd compose
Pennies and love kept us afloat
She was a girl and I was a man
Verse 2
Senorita could never rest
In search of what no-one knew
Looking for love
Was her move
Looking for love (drag out)
lips
tightly sealed
hips
side to side
no quips
From my eyes
Chorus
oooooo
oooooo
Verse 3
This her story from the past
This the age of suicide
Her teenage lover
He had died
Strong in bed as she was too
He shot himself with a gun
She gazed at him
He was done
Blood and Brains on the floor
Bullets there were 2
Verse 4
She left El Paso in the night
Drugs and drink broke her man
Looking for love
Looking for love
In her case she packed a gun
In her case was the bible
In her case she packed cigars
In her case all was done.
Chorus
oooooo she was my senorita
oooooo I was her man
Instrumental with electric guitar solo
Verse * 5 + Chorus *1 + 6/8 + 1 rest
Verse 6
In a bar we had met
She told me of her story
I stared back, hit by love
She was it
I took her by the hand
And led her to my mustang
I couldn't promise her shiny diamonds
But I could promise her all my love
Chorus
ooooo she was my woman
ooooo I was her man
Music Breakdown
Rock breakdown
Verse 7
oohs and aaahs
Chorus
ooooo she was my senorita
ooooo I was her man
Instrumental
verse *8 + Chorus * 1 + 6/8 (extended)

We Rise
I live for nothing
but you and your smile
Keep me from going crazy
We rise, we rise
And we fall
Down till we fly again
I want for one thing
Yours arms
Take me to a place of safety
You are my only
True world
For whom I breath again
We rise, we rise
And we fall
Down till we fly again
