Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

-d. vincent williams, john allen-

Suitcase packed with all his things
Car pulls up, the doorbell rings
He don’t want to go
He thought he’d found his home
But with circumstances he can’t change
Waves goodbye as they pull away
From the life he’s known
For the last seven months or so

She said we found the man who looks like you
Who cried and said he never knew
About the boy in pictures that we showed him
A rambler in his younger days
He knew he made a few mistakes
But he swore he would have been there
Had he known it
Son we think we found your dad in oklahoma

A million thoughts raced through his mind
What’s his name, what’s he like and will be be
Anything like the man in his dreams
She could see the questions in his eyes
Whispered "don’t be scared my child
I’ll let you know, what we know

About the man we found, he looks like you
And cried and said he never knew
About the boy in pictures that we showed him
A rambler in his younger days he knew he’d made a few mistakes
But he swore he would’ve been there had he known it
You always said that this was something that you wanted
Son it’s time to meet your dad in oklahoma

One last turn he held his breath
‘til they reached the fifth house on the left
And all at once the tears came rolling in
And as they pulled into the drive
A man was waiting there outside
Who wiped the worry from his eyes smiled and took his hand

And he said i’m the man who looks like you
Who cried because i never knew
About that boy in pictures that they showed me
A rambler in my younger days i knew i made a few mistakes
But i swear i would have been there had i known it
Never again will you ever be alone
Son welcome to your home in oklahoma

Oklahoma (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

We were shaking in our beds that night
There were strangers in the streets that night
Preacher cried out hellõs been raised
Another hot oklahoma night
Another hot oklahoma night
The kind of night where you just sit still
The kind of night where you just donõt move
We were shaking in our beds that night
We were shaking in our boots that night
Tornado hit and the roof gave way
Tornado hit and all we could do was pray

How was i to know what i was to think
How was i to know what i was to feel
How am i to say what i canõt feel
How an i to face what i cannot hide

We were looking in our hearts that day
There was movement in our hearts that day
They were talking but we could not hear
They were talking but we could not hear
Fever broke and the dead raised up
The ground broke open and the dead were raised
The kind of night where you just sit spooked
Itõs a hard life, itõs a hard life
We were looking in our hearts that day
We were hugging in our beds that night
Storm hit and the roof gave way
When a man cries it ainõt easy
But he swore duty, body and soul

How was i to know what i was to think
How was i to know what i was to feel
How an i to say what i canõt describe
How an i to face what i cannot hide

Momma said you know she ainõt that strong

We were praying in our hearts that day
God, there was movement in our hearts
They were praying but i could not feel
They were praying but i couldnõt feel
Another hot oklahoma night
Another oklahoma night
Fools part as the day breaks wide
Heavenõs doors were opened wide
I quit, so i said give up
He said i canõt stop the lights not gone
Once in a blue moon shown against that day
And my heart rips open and all i could do was pray

How was i to know what i was to think
How was i to know what i was to feel
How am i to say what i canõt describe
How am i to face what i cannot hide

See old mabel walk on down the house (??)
Pickin flowers for someone else
See old mabel walk down the house
Said son, better go on back inside
Storm brewing from the northwest side
Didn’t ask about my daddy’s ruin
Cause that old motherfucker ain’t alive

See old mabel walk on down the store
Buying groceries to eat
Walkin on down the street

Said son, you better go on back inside
Storm brewing from the northwest side
Didn’t ask about my daddy’s ruin
Cause that old motherfucker ain’t alive

See old mabel walk on down the house
Pickin flowers for someone else
Old mabel (?????)
Family bible on the coffee table
In old mabel’s house
