lyrics

Tecate and a shot, make it crown
Save me the bag won’t ya babe?
I keep my strings in there.

It loosens me up, it helps me to sing
At least that’s what I tell my friends
When they ask why I’m drinking

Once I’m feeling good I’ll crawl back to my corner
To sing songs I don’t want to sing

My hands don’t shake cause I’m nervous
My mouth don’t mumble because I’m scared
My legs don’t buckle cause I’ve been running
You can’t run from nothing when you’re stuck in place, in my
Faded glory days

In ’75 I was young and alive
Weren’t a bar at the beach didn’t know my name
Weren’t a tab I ever paid

A bump in a stall and I blew it all
The girls on the street got to know my name
I don’t remember a thing

Now I’m all messed up strumming a Gibson SJ
I pawned all but one to pay for yesterday

My hands don’t shake cause I’m nervous
My mouth don’t mumble because I’m scared
My legs don’t buckle cause I’ve been running
You can’t run from nothing when you’re stuck in place, in my
Faded glory days

Don’t you know I don’t wanna ride on a DUI bike going 35 in a
55, my guitar on my back spending weekends in jail for a vice I
can’t crack

Dear Dianna I’m so sorry
For the hell I put you through
You were my best and I was your worst

We couldn’t make it work but we make a beautiful boy
I called him Harrison
Because he brought the sun

Now it’s time to go out like my mother
To a place where I’m no longer a slave
You may say I’m giving up, or giving out But to you I say, “It’s better to burn out, than to fade away.”
It’s better to burn than to fade.

My hands don’t shake cause I’m nervous
My mouth don’t mumble because I’m scared
My legs don’t buckle cause I’ve been running
You can’t run from nothing when you’re stuck in place, in my
Faded glory days

about

Will Overman Charlottesville, Virginia

Will Overman is a Virginia singer-songwriter based in Nashville, TN.

Will's music can be best described as a combo of Rock, Country, and Americana, but it's not your typical Country-Americana sound. Sonically it is restless by nature, always searching for something new, and with heart-worn lyrics and dynamic vocals, it makes for a memorable mixture that is hard to place but easy to love. ... more
