Purple Haze Turning Blue
Copyright: Maurice Turmel - 2001/2013
INTRO:
1) Gone are the days when I could remember
Who I was supposed to be
Gone are the days when I would surrender
To the dreams others had for me
Gone are the days when people applauded
And cheered all of my plays
Gone are the days of that
Purple Haze
BREAK:
2) It's a rare occasion when that still happens
To those awaiting their fate
It's a grand time when one of us opens
And is no longer someone's bait
Gone are the days when we give over
To those old worn out ways
Gone are the days of that Purple Haze
Gone are the days of that Purple Haze
CHORUS:
Purple Haze lonely
No more for you
Purple Haze happening
Nothing to prove
Purple Haze friendly
No longer true
My Purple Haze is turning Blue
SOLO:
BREAK:
BRIDGE:
It's time to mover over and be who we really are
Give the world lovers, and no more battle scars
It's time we stand up and shout out our name
Get back in the saddle, it's a new game
CHORUS:
3) That's my story, it's simple and true
Takes me out to wherever
Not at all what we've gotten used to
That's gone forever
What lies inside is now coming through
Taking our heartaches away
My Purple Haze is turning Blue
My Purple Haze is turning Blue . . .
BREAK/END

Hell Bent for Leather
Copyright: Maurice Turmel PhD, 2000 - 2012
INTRO:
(1)
Well I was crossing the street, one day
Wearing one Hell of a suit
When a Junkman came wandering by
Wearing some ugly boots
He said: “Son, where are you going now
You look so tired to me
Are you sure you want to push that hard
Or do you want to be free
CHORUS:
Hell bent for leather
Is all he could say
As we passed each other by
Hell bent for leather
And running away
Still trying to prove you’re worthwhile
(2)
I said “Sorry Pal, don’t bother me
Can’t you see I’m in a hurry?
You couldn’t possibly know what I do
And look at you, you’re so dirty”
“Know why” He said, “well surely I do
The question is – Do you?
Driving yourself crazy each day
And man, Look at those shoes”
CHORUS:
SOLO: (1 verse, 1 chorus)
(3)
Well, I said, I’ve got to be fed
Get out and pay those bills
I’ve been on this road for so long
Since God only knows
He said: “Son, I don’t care what you do
Or if you’re a Son of a Gun
But you’re the one I am talking to
And you’re a man on the run”
CHORUS:
ENDING: Ooh Ooo Ooo
Ah h h h Ah h h h Ah h h h (4)

There must be some way out of here
Said the Voice across the land
There is so much confusion
I can’t Understand
All the killing and heartache
Time to be found

About their fellow man
There was a time we all agreed
We had to take a stand
The 60s were on fire
No More War

We’ll get by with some help from our friends
We know we cannot be alone
We’ll get by and we’re rising again
We’re on our way – back Home

Since we fought those battles in the streets
We know it’s never over out there
So we can never ever retreat

It’s time to be found

We’ll get by with some help from our friends
We know we cannot be alone
We’ll get by and we’re rising again
We’re on our way – back Home

Said the Voice across the land
There is so much confusion
Time for us to understand
