lyrics

Cmaj
The finer things in life don't come in a magazine
fmaj7
on sale for 19.95 a specialized set of
Cmaj
buffalo Quarters manufactured in Virginia
fmaj7
by a guy who's knows his history a little too well
Cmaj
I bought one in December cause it was our anniversary
fmaj7
and you worked all night in the hospital where I find it hard to breathe
Cmaj
cause all the pathogens make me nervous like a middle school kid in health
fmaj7
so I stayed home and quit my job in a bad attempt help myself

but it didn't work...

I wish it did...

But it didn't work...

I wish it did...
Cmaj
I can manage my depression, but I can't talk you out of yours
Fmaj7
and some days I get so lazy and think this time it will work
Cmaj
So I bought a buffalo Quarter cause I can't afford a ring
Fmaj7
besides you have one from our wedding where I was too damn scared to sing
Cmaj
and you sang along...
Fmaj7
and I wouldn't stop...
Cmaj
and you sang along...
Fmaj7
and I wouldn't stop...


The make-up on your face runs when your worse for wear

crying salty tears in a kitchen sink I forgot to clean

last Tuesday maybe I can get it Wednesday

I'll try my best but promises always make you mad

been together for 3 years but it can end in just one day

so tell me when your scared, I'll run right to you and I'll say

hold on to this buffalo quarter and my bruised hand over yours

and pray that one day we'll be happy until then we'll fight the war

and it may not end...

but I'll stay with you...

and it may not end...

but I'll stay with you...

You can help me pay the bills and you can help me save myself

and I can give you anything marked as priceless on a shelf

though they priced the buffalo quarter for 19.95

we still treat it like a treasure that keeps our souls alive

it did just that...

and I swear it's true...

it did just that...

and I swear it's true...

The finer things in life Don't come in a magazine

on sale for 19.95 a specialized set of

buffalo Quarters manufactured in Virginia

by a guy who's knows his history a little too well...

I have been playing music for the past 4 years now. Everything that music has given me to this point in my life would not be possible without the friends and family who have always supported me. I hope no matter what music the listener enjoys, they can see some value in what I do as a folk singer. For any contact information hit me up at:
