Kris Kristofferson - Closer To The Bone

one of kris kristofferson’s newer songs . . .

verse 1
Am
ain’t it kinda funny
Am
ain’t it just the way though
Am
ain’t ’cha gettin’ better
E
runnin’ out of time
Am
making pretty music
Am
closer to your feelings
Am
working on the reason
E
running on the rhyme

chorus
Am
heading for the highway
Am
rolling like a river
Am
soaring like an eagle
E
skippin’ like a stone
Am
comin’ from the heartbeat
Am
nothin’ but the truth now
Am
everything is sweeter
E
closer to the bone

( verse 2 )
ain’t afraid of moonlight
ain’t afraid of freedom
love will make you crazy
but your soul will keep you sane
singing to the starlight
over the horizon
open to the pleasure
equal to the pain

( chorus )
heading for the highway
rolling like a river
soaring like an eagle
skippin’ like a stone
comin’ from the heartbeat
nothin’ but the truth now
everything is sweeter
closer to the bone
