“not my shoulder”
music by esteban aguila
lyrics by esteban aguila and *rebecca goldsmith

v.1
Em7 A Dmaj7 B7
why i feel like i do
Em7 A Dmaj7 B7
should be simple, plain fact to you
Em7 A Dmaj7
i'm moving i'm changing i'm shifting in my head and i'm
B7 Em7
watching time pass me by..
A Dmaj7
you're hanging on a shoulder that is not mine

chorus:
Em7 Ebmaj7 Dmaj7
i don't wanna be the one to bring you down
Em7 Ebmaj7 Dmaj7
you're doing good things i'm just hanging around
Gm Dmaj7
we'll both still find our way back home
Gm Dmaj7
and we'll still smile while both on our own

v.2
you're not here
i don't know
where you've gone
or where you go
the songbird cries
dusty eyes
come alive
and i wait for you
to please
come near
you're hanging on
a shoulder that is
not
mine

i don't wanna be the one
to bring you down
you're doing good things
i'm just hanging around

we'll both still find
our way back home
and we'll still smile
while both on our own

it's hard for me to explain
how things are
there's been a lot between us
so far
it sure turned bad
between you and i
the years we've seen
and how love passed us by

*
i don't wanna be the one
to bring you down
(i don't want to bring you down)
you're doing good things
i'm just hanging around
(i'm just hanging around)

we'll both still find
our way back home
(i wanna find my way
back home to you)
and we'll still smile
while both on our own.
