Lessons In New Jersey Lyrics - Our Home Is Gone - Meg & Dia

So I met a guy 

He's from New Jersey 

Took me out to get some food 

What you do I asked I play the guitar 

Well baby I play the guitar too 

Do you have plans for Saturday 

Do you think that you could watch me play 

I don't know it depends on what's goin' on backstage 

So we talked some more of scales and chords 

And when I first attempted to 

And he told me that's not the way to go 

I said baby I don't get you 

Don't you ever play what you feel inside 

No baby I ain't got the time to figure out 

what makes you smile or makes you tend to lie 

So he started playing a melody 

And wanted me to start soloing 

I don't know quite what to do 

He said pick it up and I'll help you through 

Don't you ever play what you feel inside 

No baby I ain't got the time to figure out 

what makes you smile or makes you tend to lie 

It's too late now 

I'll show you how 

Put that guitar down 

Put that guitar down 

Dadalaladada 

Dadalaladadada [x4] 

Time oh time it slips so fine 

It kills me about every time 

I decide that time has come 

Figure I'll go get me some 

That's not what your supposed to do 

Don't dare go back the failures too 

Maybe I'm a failure too so lets get on with it 

Don't you ever play what you feel inside 

No baby I ain't got the time to figure out 

what makes you smile or makes you tend to lie 

It's too late now 

And I'll show you how 

Put that guitar down 

Put that guitar down 

So I met a guy 

He's from New Jersey 

Learned a little more than I thought I would. 

Love Me 

Love Me 

Love Me 

Love Me
