Start With Why (Live)
You’re gonna make a record
How do you start it off?
Should I sing or tell a joke
Or clear my throat out with a cough?
I don’t wanna preach
No, I just wanna sing
But in the circles I run in
It’s the same damn thing
See songs are the way
That we soothe each other’s souls
Where the songs come from
Seems like - God only knows
God only knows
I know it sounds cliché
But music saved my life
And songs are the way
To end our suffering and strife
So thank you for coming
This is all I wanna do
Just play guitar
And sing some songs to you
Yeah I’ll play ‘em fast
And sing ‘em mad for you
Don’t worry ‘bout the tears
No, I swear I’m feeling good
Only took me thirty years
Now I’m doing what I should
I said the songs are the way
That we soothe each other’s souls
And where the songs come from
Seems like God only knows
So thank you for coming
This is all I wanna do
Just play guitar
And sing some songs for you
You’re gonna make a record
How do you start it off?
