OPENER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face grand square
*We had a plan, move out of this town, baby
West to the sand, it's all we talked about lately
I packed the car, bring your guitar and Jane for smokin'
First thing at dawn you'd queue the songs,
Allemande and weave
**But you weren't home, waited on the porch for ya
Sat there alone, all throughout the morn' 'til I
Got a hunch down in my gut and snuck around the back
Empty cans and I'll be damned, your shit was never packed
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*Hell of blow, you had me believin'
How many months did you plan on leavin'?
What happened? Bad habits? Did you go back? Go batshit?
I loved you...
**Did your boots stop workin'? Did your truck break down?
Did you burn through money? Did your ex find out?
Where there's a will, then there's a way and I'm damn sure you lost it
Didn't even say goodbye, just wish I knew what caused it
**Was the whiskey flowin'? Were you in a fight?
Did the nerves come get you? What's your alibi?
I made my way back to LA and that's where you'll be forgotten
In forty years, you'll still be here, drunk, washed up in Austin
FIGURE Basic - SSD Week 10, corner progression
The heads (sides) promenade and travel halfway around
Walk in square thru 4 hands you go
All the way and then swing thru for me
The boy run, ferris wheel around and then
Square thru 3, 3 hands around and then
You swing with that girl, promenade her back home
I made my way back to LA and that's where you'll be forgotten
In forty years, you'll still be here, drunk, washed up in Austin
