MEG & DIA LYRICS - Lessons In New Jersey

"Lessons In New Jersey"



So I met a guy

He's from New Jersey

Took me out to get some food

What you do I asked I play the guitar

Well baby I play the guitar too



Do you have plans for Saturday

Do you think that you could watch me play

I don't know it depends on what's goin' on backstage



So we talked some more of scales and chords

And when I first attempted to

And he told me that's not the way to go

I said baby I don't get you



Don't you ever play what you feel inside

No baby I ain't got the time to figure out

what makes you smile or makes you tend to lie



So he started playing a melody

And wanted me to start soloing

I don't know quite what to do

He said pick it up and I'll help you through



Don't you ever play what you feel inside

No baby I ain't got the time to figure out

what makes you smile or makes you tend to lie



It's too late now

I'll show you how

Put that guitar down

Put that guitar down



Dadalaladada

Dadalaladadada [x4]



Time oh time it slips so fine

It kills me about every time

I decide that time has come

Figure I'll go get me some

That's not what your supposed to do

Don't dare go back the failures too

Maybe I'm a failure too so lets get on with it



Don't you ever play what you feel inside

No baby I ain't got the time to figure out

what makes you smile or makes you tend to lie

It's too late now

And I'll show you how

Put that guitar down

Put that guitar down



So I met a guy

He's from New Jersey

Learned a little more than I thought I would.

Love Me

Love Me
