Tedeschi Trucks Band Revelator Lyrics
1.Love Has Something Else To Say

Lyricist:Delaney Bramlett, Oteil Burbridge, Michael Mattison, Derek
Trucks

I know you know right from wrong
It don't change a thing, just the same old song
But you know I see you bring it on yourself
When I point at you, yeah, it comes back to me

Ain't no reason to hold it all inside
It all makes sense when you realize

Love has something else to say
When you go on changing my mind
Now that we have found our way
When you go on changing your minds

Can't trust your head, you can't trust in him
Can't fight the feeling that you put away
It's all the same, it's always up and down
Ain't nothing changed except a change in time

Ain't no reason to hold it all inside
All makes sense when you realize

Love has something else to say
When we go on changing our minds
Now that we have found our way
When we go on changing our mind

Ain't no reason, ain't no reason to change
When you're on the right track
I know it's hard now, know it's hard to do right
When you want to do wrong

Ain't no reason, ain't no reason to change
When you're on the right track
I know that it is hard, I know it's hard to do it right
When you want to do wrong

Love has something else to say
When we go on changing our minds
Now that we have found our way
When we go on changing our minds

Love has something else to say
When we go on changing our minds
Love, love, love, love
When we go on changing our minds

Love has something else to say
When we go on changing our minds
Love has something else to say
When we go on changing our minds

Love, love, love, love
When we go on changing our minds
Love has something else to say
When we go on changing our minds


2.Simple Things

Lyricist:Gary Michael Louris, Susan Tedeschi, Derek Trucks

When you look into the mirror
Are you proud of what you see?
Do you take it all for granted?
Do you have all that you need?

Oh and I don't want to tell you
That I've heard it all before
'Cause I've been taking
More than I've been giving

Oh and underneath my shadow
There's so much that lies in store
Simple things
Make it all worth living

Looking for life without sorrow
Love without pain
Looking for life without sorrow
Love without pain

So you've built these walls around you
To protect all that you own
You have kept out what's important
How's it feel to be all alone?

Oh and I don't want to tell you
That I've heard it all before
'Cause I've been taking
More than I've been giving

Oh and underneath my shadow
There's so much that lies in store
And simple things
Make life worth living

Looking for life without sorrow
Love without pain
Looking for life without sorrow
Love without pain

I don't claim to know the answers
I just know I could do much more
No more excuses anymore

Now I've opened up my windows
Feel the children on the street
Love has stolen all the bitterness
And sent it off with the breeze

Oh and I don't want to tell you
That I've heard it all before
'Cause I've been taking
More than I've been giving

Oh and underneath my shadow
There's so much that lies in store
And simple things
Make it all worth living

Looking for life without sorrow
Love without pain
Looking for life without sorrow
Love without pain

Looking for life without sorrow
Love without pain


3.Don't Let Me Slide

Lyricist:Gary Michael Louris, Susan Tedeschi, Derek Trucks

You make me wanna wake up in the morning
You make me wanna to be the best I can
Always searching but never finding
Oh, until you took me by my hand

I let go when I was young
Once abandoned, all my trust was gone

Don't let me slide, it's just a matter of time
Don't let me slide into my dark side

You can't blame me, Lord, for trying
To hide behind the fool that I am
You know I've never been afraid of flying
Just never knew how to land

I let go when I was young
Once abandoned, all my trust had gone

Don't let me slide, it's just a matter of time
Don't let me slide into my dark side

You make me wanna wake up in the morning
Oh, you make me wanna to be the best I can
Always searching but never finding
Oh, until you took me by my hand

Don't let me slide, Lord, it's just a matter of time
Ah, don't let me, don't let me slide
Love, don't let me slide, don't let me slide

Don't let me slide
Don't let me slide

Don't let me slide
Oh lord, don't let me slide
Oh, it's just a matter of time

Oh, don't let me, don't let me slide
Oh, it's just a matter of time


4.Shelter

Lyricist:David Ryan Harris, Susan Tedeschi, Derek Trucks

They made their promises then they walked away
Fair-weather friends are gone for good
You never cared about what others had to say
And through it all you understood

You are my prayer in times of trouble
I'll be your answer when you call
I'll shelter you, shelter me

Wake up but keep dreaming that you were born to fly
When your heart is heavy like a stone
I'll lift your burden high until you realize
That through the storm you soldiered on

You are my prayer in times of trouble
I'll be your answer when you call

Oh, you showed me that your actions
Speak louder than your words

You are my prayer in times of trouble
And I'll be your answer when you call

You are my prayer in times of trouble
I'll be your answer when you call

When you need me, oh, yeah
I'll be your answer when you call
I'll shelter you, shelter me


5.These Walls

Lyricist:Sonya Kitchell, Eric Krasno, Derek Trucks

She wakes up in the morning
To a kettle on the stove
Peeling wallpaper
House next to a dusty road

She prays, 'Oh Lord
Don't let these walls fall down'

'Cause she's got no money
But she works like hell
She loved him like a lady
Never did her too well

She prays, 'Oh Lord
Don't let these walls fall down'
'Cause it's been so damn hard
Since her man left town

Says, 'I've been thinking
I've been thinking
I've been thinking 'bout you, baby
For such a long, long time'

And she can't help but wonder
On those rainy Saturdays
Where he is and where he's been
Is another trapped in his haze?

She prays, 'Oh Lord
Don't let these walls fall down'

'Cause she's not lonely
And she's learned to get along
How many years will it take
Before he is really gone?

She prays, 'Oh Lord
Don't let these walls fall down'
'Cause it's been so damn hard
Since her man left town

Says, 'I've been thinking
I've been thinking
I've been thinking 'bout you, baby
For such a long, long time'

Says, 'I've been thinking
I've been thinking
I've been thinking 'bout you, baby
For such a long, long time'

Says, 'I've been thinking
I've been thinking
I've been thinking 'bout you, baby
For such a long, long time'

7.Shrimp And Grits (Interlude)


8.Learn How To Love

Tired of living without
When others have so much
If I could find someone
To bring that lovin' touch
All this time's been wasted
No more words to spare
And if I knew how to love
I would take you there
I won't let go
I won't give up
I'm gonna learn how to love you
I'm gonna show you somehow
If my time is over
Can I learn how to give?
Can I throw down these chains
And find a new way to live?
I know it won't be easy
All I need is a friend
And with you here by my side
I'm ready to start again
I won't let go
I won't give up
I'm gonna learn how to love you

I'm gonna show you somehow
I will know you
When I see you in my dreams
So take my hand
And follow me to ecstasy


9.Ball And Chain

Hallelujah, we got some rain
Yeah, we prayed for mud
To the low ground of yesterday
Comes the flood

I'm so lucky
My pride and joy
Is my ball and chain
And they're one and the same

Thought I was bound to get away
Now I'm just bound
I don't mind when the hurricane
Comes around

I'm so lucky
My pride and joy
Is my ball and chain
And they're one and the same


10.Until You Remember

Every night I pray
That you'll come back today
And hold me like you used to
Every night I spent
Just waiting on your scent
Needing just a trace of you

Well I know it ain't refined
But I'll hold your place in line
Until you remember that you're mine

It's not my first mistake
I'm sleeping wide awake
You know I can't think straight about you
And it's nothing that I planned
To let you slip right through my hands
I'm burning with a love that's turned blue


11.Bound For Glory

Tell your story
Roll the truth around your head
Bound for glory
I ain't getting out of this bed
The sun comes struggling on
Yesterday's dead and gone

Tell your story
Put the night back in your veins
Bound for glory
I ain't coming to again
The sun comes struggling on
Yesterday's dead and gone
And I feel I'm bound for glory
Dreaming in a cowboy song
I feel I'm bound for glory

Can you feel it?
Bound for glory!
Can you feel it?
Glory bound!
Can you feel it?
Bound for glory!

Tell your story
Roll the truth around your head
Bound for glory
I ain't getting out of this bed
The sun comes struggling on
Yesterday's dead and gone
And I feel I'm bound for glory
Dreaming in a cowboy song
I feel I'm bound for glory

Can you feel it?
Bound for glory!
Can you feel it?
Glory bound!
Can you feel it?
Bound for glory!


12.Midnight In Harlem

Well, I came to the city
I was running from the past
My heart was bleeding
And it hurt my bones to laugh
Stayed in the city
No exception to the rules, to the rule
He was born to love me
I was raised to be his fool, his fool

Walk that line, torn apart
Spend your whole life trying
Ride that train, free your heart
It's midnight up in Harlem

I went down to the river
And I took a look around
There were old man's shoes
There were needles on the ground
No more mysteries, baby
No more secrets, no more clues
The stars are out there
You can almost see the moon
The streets are windy
And the subway's closing down
Gonna carry this dream
To the other side of town.

Walk that line, torn apart
Spend your whole life trying
Ride that train, free your heart
It's midnight up in Harlem


13.Come See About Me

Tired of waiting on you
After all we've been through
If you want me still
I know I can do for you
Anything you want me to
Why don't you come see about it?
Come see about me, baby
Come see about me

Time is wasting away
After all, it's been a long day.
If you want me still
I know I can do for you
Anything you want me to
Why don't you come see about it?
Come see about me, baby
Come see about me

If you want me still
I know I can do for you
Anything you want me to
Why don't you come see about it?
Come see about me, baby
Come see about me
Come see about me, baby
Come see about me, yea
Come see about me
Come see about me, yea
Come see about me, yea
