The Course

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Help me I don't know what I'm doin

Help me before I fall to ruin

And if I'm blind, I will lead you on

Come follow me now, before our time is gone

Chorus

And as you're laughing at this fool tonight

Let me rid myself of any line that I might use to trip you up

And as I'm howling at the moonlight, don't you kid yourself

I will be your luck and never your curse

Help me I don't know what I'm saying

Sometimes this tongue can be betraying

And if I'm wrong, is that such a crime?

And if you want, you can set my words to right

Chorus

And as you're laughing at this fool tonight

Let me rid myself of any line that I might use to trip you up

And as I'm howling at the moonlight, don't you kid yourself

I will be your luck

And if your eyes forget to well

And if your lies forget to tell

And if our paths forget to cross

It doesn't mean you're lost

Chorus

So as you're laughing at this fool tonight

Let me rid myself of any line that I might use to trip you up

And as I'm howling at the moonlight, don't you kid yourself

I will be your luck

If you're laughing at this fool tonight

Let me rid myself of any line that I might use to trip you up

And as I'm howling at the moonlight, don't you kid yourself

I will be your luck

Cause even at my worst

I will be your luck

never be your curse
