My Baby's Coming Home 11/6/2019 G Em Am C D Tune down 2 steps Sitting on my porch summer evening delight Strumming on my guitar cause I'm feeling right Sipping home brew in the evening light Good to be home with my darling tonight G Em Am C D D7 Been many years since I won her heart Spending our winters living far apart Keeping love alive can be such an art Now you're with me home and that's a start Chorus Em G Am C D D7 My baby's coming home tonight Been waiting far too long Raise your glasses high my friends With a toast and a song Em G Am C G Rosin up your fiddle We're gonna have a show Let's get this party started son Cause my baby's coming home G Em Am C D She returns to me in the summertime The feeling's right and the words all rhyme I'm keeping my ducks all in a line Baby's coming home and I'm feeling fine G Em Am C D D7 Now I ain't perfect and neither is she We're always better when it's us and we Ain't no place that we'd rather be Cause we got love and that's the key Chorus Em G Am C D D7 Baby's coming home tonight Been waiting far too long Raise your glasses high my friends With a toast and a song Em G Am C G Rosin up your fiddle We're gonna have a show Let's get this party started son Cause my baby's coming home G Em Am C D Now one and one it makes two It all makes sense just me and you Together we are making a heady brew Without your love what would I do G Em Am C D D7 I need her and she needs me Me and her it don't make three Working hard now that is key Ain't nothing good ever comes for free Chorus Em G Am C D D7 Baby's coming home tonight Been waiting far too long Raise your glasses high my friends With a toast and a song Em G Am C G Rosin up your fiddle We're gonna have a show Let's get this party started son Cause my baby's coming home G Em Am C D Sitting on my porch summer evenings delight Strumming on my guitar cause I'm feeling right Sipping home brew in the evening light Good to be home with my darling tonight Copyright 2019 Michael J McNulty

Medicine Line 10/20/2019 G C G Capo 1 Lead guitar tuning E A D G E E At the Stampede up in Calgary Way up north in the Queen's land Wandered up from Montana Never riding for the brand She was pure Canadian cowgirl Barrel racing's top hand Talking hours over Molsans Wasn't something we really planned Chorus G Am C G We were crossing Ahh That Medicine Line We were crossing Ahh That Medicine Line She was living for the rodeo I wasn't one to settle down Chasing after what life brings us Living for another round I didn't know that I was looking Didn't know where we were bound We only knew that for a little while It was good to be around Chorus G Am C G Cause we were crossing Ahh That Medicine Line We were crossing Ahh That Medicine Line We made the best of living That short space and time Lost in all the color And the rhythm and the rhyme Then one day she's up and gone Never even left a word One minute we were living life The next remains all a blur Chorus G Am C G But I'm still crossing Ahh That Medicine Line I'm still crossing Ahh That Medicine Line Yes I'm still crossing Ahh That Medicine Line Copyright 2019 Michael J McNulty

Good To See You Once Again 11/1/2019 G Am C G Saw my first love in a dream last night Been so long since that was then 40 years on down that highway So good to see you once again G C Am G It was Missoula, Montana 1980s coming strong Wild West Americana With the 60s hanging on Chorus Em G Am C G Am C G Never can forget your first love Emotions running raw and new Youth confusing love with passion But I'll always will remember you Met her one night at a party G Am C G Older, wiser than I'd ever be A love I thought that I could handle I let it ride away with me Left this young man devastated G C Am G Much too green to understand For me the favor she was doing By fixing what she'd never planned Chorus Em G Am C G Am C G Never can forget your first love Emotions raw and oh so new Youth confusing love with passion But I'll always will remember you Said only two men ever loved her G Am C G With all the ardor that I'd shown And neither one would she marry In the life she'd come to know Saw my first love in a dream last night G C Am G Though my vision's fading my old friend 40 years on down life's highway It's good to see you once again Chorus Em G Am C G Am C G Never can forget your first love All the joy and all the pain Now 40 years on down that highway Still good to see you once again Been 40 years on down life's highway So good to see you once again Copyright 2019 Michael J McNulty

Thought My Mojo Was Working 11/4/2019 E A E Bm7 A E Bm7 E traditional blues Capo 2 Had my mojo working Or at least I thought it so Thought my mojo was working But there's nothing left to show Now my mojo's quit working Don't know where it would go Been working all the angles Tell me what I got to show Fell for all that jingle jangle Brought me nothing else but woe Low hanging fruit that dangles Propping up the walls of Jericho Chorus 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Ain't no way for to get to heaven 8 9 10 11 and 12 Wondering if I'm ever gonna ring that bell 13 14 15 17 Ain't no place like I ever seen 18 19 20 22 Going nowhere how bout you Guitar break When my mojo was working I was reaping what I'd sow And the bridges I was burning Unaware that bird had flown Then my mojo quit working Emptiness like I'd never known Now my mojo ain't working Leaving me here all alone See only trouble lurking Wherever places I may roam Need my luck to start turning Point my way back on home Chorus 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Ain't no way for to get to heaven 8 9 10 11 and 12 Wondering if I'm ever gonna ring that bell 13 14 15 17 Ain't no place like I ever seen 18 19 20 22 Going nowhere how bout you Guitar break Copyright 2019 Michael J McNulty

Simpler Times 11/3/2019 G Em G Em Am Em Am Em Capo 5 I been yearnin for a simpler time Common sense and words that rhyme Once had a notion of right and wrong Now everybody's singing their own damn song No one's searching for a common ground Just who's a making the loudest sound No one's seeking the greater good Or even yearning to be understood G Em G Em America land of the free Drowning in the seas of diversity Come together, gotta make our stand Time we're all riding for the same old brand Ain't no hyphenated Americans It's Old TR ya gotta understand We're all the same when the day is done Dump those labels try to live as one G Em G Em They're tearing down statues and burning old flags Tying up our history in neat little bags Disrespecting pain through which change was made Saying we're a nation with debts unpaid Ain't no escaping from the failings of the past Gotta learn from them all if we're gonna last They sell our country short for mistakes been made Well there's a learning curve for every age G Em G Em I been yearning for a simpler time Common sense and words that rhyme Left and right east and west We sure ain't perfect but we beat all the rest Learning from our past both the good and bad Building something better than we ever had Ourselves we're learning better to understand Moving on together to the promised land G Em G Em I been yearnin for a simpler time Common sense and words that rhyme Copyright 2019 Michael J McNulty
