RASCAL FLATTS – The Day Before You

I had all but given up on finding
The one that I could fall into
On the day before you
I was ready to settle for
Less than love and not much more
There was no such thing as a dream come true
Oh, but that was all the day before you

Now you’re here and everything’s changing
Suddenly life means so much
I can’t wait to wake up tomorrow
And find out this promise is true
I will never have to go back to
The day before you

In your eyes I see forever
Makes me wish that my life never knew
The day before you

Oh, but Heaven knows those years without you
Were shaping my heart for the that day I found you
If you’re the reason for all that I’ve been through
Then I’m thankful for the day before you

Now you’re here and everything’s changing
Suddenly life means so much
I can’t wait to wake up tomorrow
And find out this promise is true
I will never have to go back to
The day before you

Was the last day that I ever needed alone
And I’m never going back
No I’m never going back

Now you’re here and everything’s changing
Suddenly life means so much
I can’t wait to wake up tomorrow
And find out this promise is true
No I’m never going back
I will never have to go back to
The day before you

RASCAL FLATTS – This Everyday Love

Can’t get enough of this everyday love
Can’t get enough of this everyday love

Each morning the sun shines through my window
Lands on the face of a dream come true
I shuffle to the kitchen for my coffee
And catch up on the front page morning news
Then she walks up behind me and throws her arms around my neck
Just another normal thing I’ve come to expect

[Chorus]
It’s ordinary plain and simple
Typical, this everyday love
Same ol’, same ol’ keeping it new
(Same ol’/This everyday love)
Emotional, so familiar
Nothing about it too peculiar
Oh, but I can’t get enough
Of this everyday love

Every afternoon I make a phone call
Listen to the voice that warms my heart
I drag myself through a few more hours
Then head on home to try and beat the dark
Her smile will be right there when I step through that door
And it will be that way tomorrow, just like everyday before

[Repeat Chorus]

Wouldn’t change one single thing about it
No, it’s run-of-the-mill, still I can’t live without it

[Repeat Chorus]

Yeah, of this everyday love
Can’t get enough of this everyday love
Can’t get enough of this everyday love
Can’t get enough of this everyday love
Can’t get enough

RASCAL FLATTS – Winner At A Losing Game

Baby, look here at me
Have you ever seen me this way
I’ve been fumblin’ for words
Through the tears and the hurt and the
Pain
I’m gonna lay it all out
On the line tonight
And I think that it’s time
To tell this uphill fight goodbye

[Chorus:]
Have you ever had to love someone
That just don’t feel the same
Tryin’ to make somebody care for you
The way I do
Is like tryin’ to catch the rain
And if love is really forever
I’m a winner at a losin’ game

I know that baby, you tried
To find me somewhere inside of you
But you know you can’t lie
Girl, you can’t hide the truth
Sometimes two hearts
Just can’t dance to the same beat
So I’ll pack up my things
And I’ll take what remains of me

[Chorus]

I know that I’ll never be the man that you need or love
Yeah, baby it’s killin’ me to stand here and see
I’m not what you’ve been dreamin’ of

[Chorus]

Oh, oh, if love is really forever
I’m a winner at a losin’ game
Oh, I’m tired of losing
Oh, oh, oh-

RASCAL FLATTS – Right One Time

Love’s tough, let’s get real,
What else can make you feel that bad?
If love was, it was a plane
And went down in a ball of flames
And crashed
You wouldn’t do that again

Love is a hopeless dream, it’s kinda crazy
Enought to keep you thinkin next time maybe
Maybe, just maybe
This time around might get it right
And ya only gotta get it right one time
One time

Now love rocks, rocks your world
And it’s good, it’s so good, girl, I swear
So come on, let’s do this thing
I’m in, baby don’t be scared
Yeah, let’s go there

Love is a hopeless dream, it’s kinda crazy
Enough to keep you thinkin next time maybe
Maybe, just maybe
This time around might get it right
And ya only gotta get it right one time

Maybe I’m crazy falling for you
Maybe, just maybe
Maybe it’s true

Love is a hopeless dream, it’s kinda crazy
Enough to keep you thinkin next time maybe
Maybe, just maybe

Love is a hopeless dream, it’s kinda crazy
Enough to keep you thinkin next time maybe
Maybe, just maybe

It’s a hopeless dream, it’s kind of crazy,
Keep you thinkin next time maybe,
This time around might get it right
And ya only gotta get it right one time
Yeah, just one time
Maybe this time around

RASCAL FLATTS – She’s Leaving

She’s got a suitcase packed in the trunk, trunk, trunk
She’s got a see you later song that went bump, bump, bump
She’s got a hurting heavy heart that went thump, thump, thump
She’s leaving
She’s got a bucket of tears goin’ drop, drip, drop
And that ring on her finger is comin’ off, off, off
She’s got a boyfriend yelling to stop, stop, stop
She’s leaving

[Chorus:]
Should have done this, should have done that
Should have seen it comin’, guess you don’t see nothing when you’re runnin’ ’round
She’s history, wrapped in a memory,
Tied up tight with a broken heart strings of the things that will never be
She’s leaving

She left her jeans in the washing machine, chine, chine
Now she’s a red light turning to green, green, green
She’s a goner if you know what I mean, mean, mean
She’s leaving

[Chorus:]
Should have done this, should have done that
Should have seen it comin’, guess you don’t see nothing when you’re runnin’ ’round
She’s history, wrapped in a memory,
Tied up tight with a broken heart strings of the things that will never be
She’s leaving
Oh no, she’s leaving

Look at her go down right over your road,
Saying to herself should have done this a long time ago

[Chorus:]
Should have done this, should have done that
Should have seen it comin’, guess you don’t see nothing when you’re runnin’ ’round
She’s history, wrapped in a memory,
Tied up tight with a broken heart strings of the things that will never be
She’s, she’s, she’s leaving
She’s leaving
She’s leaving
Oh, she’s leaving
She’s leaving
(She’s leaving, man)
Look at her go down right over your road

RASCAL FLATTS – Sunrise

Well you can’t eat, can’t sleep down on the floor
Cause you never fell this hard before
Now there’s nothing in this world you want more than to be free

And you’re lost somewhere, you swore you’d never go
And the way back looks like a dead end road
But with one step, one breath, one smile at a time

Let me get you out of here
Wipe away all your tears
Now you’re safe in these arms of mine
I won’t ever let you down
Your heart will start to come around
We’re gonna change your life
One sunrise at a time

Well, you can’t get rid of all his lies
Thinkin’ ’bout him all the time
Can I be the reason you’ve got nothin’ on your mind

Oh, let me get you out of here
Wipe away all your tears
Now you’re safe in these arms of mine
I won’t ever let you down
Your heart will start to come around
We’re gonna change your life
One sunrise at a time

Let me hold you tight
All through the night
Till you awake
Till all this pain
Is gone with yesterday (yesterday)
Gone with yesterday

Oh, let me get you out of here

Oh, I won’t ever let you down
Your heart will start to come around
We’re gonna change your life
One sunrise at a time
Oh, one sunrise
At a time

RASCAL FLATTS – Let It Hurt

7:42 in the morning
8 seconds before it all sinks in
Put your best face on for the world
Fake another smile and just pretend
But you’re just puttin’ off the pain
Nothing’s ever really gonna change

[Chorus:]
So let it hurt, let it bleed
Let it take you right down to your knees
Let it burn to the worst degree
May not be what you want, but it’s what you need
Sometimes the only way around it
Is to let love do it’s work
And let it hurt
Yeah, let it hurt

3:28 in the morning
Countin’ up the spaces between the rain
You’re gettin’ used to the rocks at the bottom
Your heart goes numb, but the lonely stays the same
And that’s the price you’re bound to pay
And there’s really nothing anyone can say
Oh, there’s only just one way

[Chorus:]
So let it hurt, let it bleed
Let it take you right down to your knees
Let it burn to the worst degree
May not be what you want, but it’s what you need
Sometimes the only way around it
Is to let love do it’s work
So go on
Yeah, let it hurt

You might just find you’re better for it
When you let go and you learn
To let it hurt, let it bleed
Let it take you right down to your knees
Oh…
Sometimes the only way around it
Is to let love do it’s work
So go on
And let it hurt
Oh, let it hurt

7:42 in the morning
8 seconds before it all sinks in

RASCAL FLATTS – Lovin’ Me

Now there are days when I don’t have a clue where to find me
My shadow feels like a stranger lagging behind me
I feel like a king of I can’t get a break, bad timing
But the reason, the questions and my second guessing
Don’t hang around to long

You keep lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me baby
You keep lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me baby
I can step right into the great unknown
And always find my way back home
You keep lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me baby

It’s so crazy no matter how much you pour in
You seem to find a way to fit a little bit more in
You smile that smile and it feels like a brand new morning
You’re bound and determine and I don’t deserve it
But God knows where I’d be

If you didn’t keep lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me baby
You keep lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me baby
I can step right into the great unknown
And always find my way back home
You keep lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me baby

Life can take you, turn you, twist you right in two,
Oh bring it on
I’ve got you

You keep lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me baby
You keep lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me baby
(You keep lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me baby)
(You keep lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me, lovin’ me baby)
I can step right into the great unknown
And always find my way back home
You keep lovin’ me
You keep lovin’ me
You keep lovin’ me
Oh baby

Rascal Flatts – Next to You, Next to Me

Ridin’ down the road in my pick-up truck
Ya’ better be ready ’cause I’m pickin’ you up
With a full moon a shinin’ and a little bit a’ luck
We’ll run out outta gas and maybe get stuck

We could get lost baby I don’t care
I ain’t worried as long as you’re there
There ain’t no place that I’d rather be
Next to you, sittin’ next to me
There ain’t no place that I’d rather be
Next to you, next to me

Barbecue chicken in aluminum foil
Just enough money for my gas and oil
Who needs your shrimp and your caviar
I’d sooner have you just the way you are

Rich people got their money to hold
Mansion on the hill and diamonds and gold
It can’t compare as far as I can see
Next to you sittin’ next to me
There ain’t no place that I’d rather be
Next to you, next to me

Radio playin’ our favorite song
I’ll change the station if the news comes on
When the signal ain’t comin’ in too strong
We’ll make our own music honey all night long

If the Good Lord’s willin’ when we’re old and gray
The kids are grown up and moved away
We’ll be rockin’ there side by side
With barbeque chicken and the tv guide

Well, there ain’t no place that I’d rather be
Next to, sittin’ next to me

No, there ain’t no place that I’d rather be
Next to you, next to me

There ain’t no place that I’d rather be
Next to you, sittin’ next to me

Next to you, next to me
Next to you, next to me

Next to you, next to me
Next to you, next to me

RASCAL FLATTS – Here

There’s a place I’ve been looking for
That took me in and out of buildings
Behind windows, walls and doors
And I thought I found it
Couple times, even settled down
And I’d hang around just long enough
To find my way back out
I know now the place that I was trying to
Reach
Was you, right here in front of me

[CHORUS]
And I wouldn’t change a thing
I’d walk right back through the rain
Back to every broken heart
On the day that it was breakin’
And I’d relive all the years
And be thankful for the tears
I’ve cried with every stumbled step
That led to you and got me here, right here

It’s amazing what I let my heart go through
To get me where it got me
In this moment here with you
And it passed me by
God knows how many times
I was so caught up in holding
What I never thought I’d find
I know now, there’s a million roads
I had to take
To get me in your arms that way

[Repeat Chorus]

In a love I never thought I’d get to get to
-here
And if that’s the road
God made me take to be with you

[Repeat Chorus]

And I’d relive all the years
And be thankful for all the tears
I’ve cried with every stumbled step
That led to you and got me here, right here
Oh, baby-Ooo
Oh, got me here

RASCAL FLATTS – Hot In Here

She jumped in my truck in her bare feet
Slid on over to the middle seat
Baby crack a window,
Crank that AC high as it can go

Sign at the bank says it’s 71
But it feels like we’re sitting on the sun
That little cotton dress ain’t helping none
‘Bout to run me off the road

And I, I can barely breathe
Then she puts her hand, over on my knee
And I don’t know what to do
Doin’ everything, tryin’ to keep my cool

But it’s hot, hot, hot in here
Ooh, so hot, hot, hot in here
Yeah, I can’t take her anywhere
It’s so hot, hot, hot in here

So I took a turn heading for the creek
That suntan skin was a sight to see
Soon as she got in I could see the steam
Rising up off the water

And I, I can barely breathe
Then she wraps her arms all around me
And I don’t know what to do
Doin’ everything, tryin’ to keep my cool

But it’s hot, hot, hot in here
Ooh, so hot, hot, hot in here
Yeah, I can’t take her anywhere
It’s so hot, hot, hot in here

When we dried off by the bank (It was getting dark)
We threw a blanket on the ground (Underneath the stars)
Should’ve been a little cooler in the moonlight
Then she laid her lips on mine
Oh, she laid her lips on mine
Oh, yeah

And I, I can barely breathe
Anytime that she’s anywhere close to me
And I don’t know what to do
Doin’ everything, tryin’ to keep my cool

But it’s hot, hot, hot in here
Ooh, so hot, hot, hot in here
Yeah, I can’t take her anywhere
It’s so hot, hot, hot in here
So hot, hot, hot in here, yeah
I can’t take her anywhere
It’s so hot, hot, hot in here
So hot in here
Anytime she’s close to me
It’s so hot, hot, hot in here

RASCAL FLATTS – Hurry Baby

I don’t wanna wait, it’s been too long
I don’t wanna lay here all alone
I don’t wanna need this phone
To hear you breathe

Every second feels just like a year
Every moment you’re not here
Is like a lifetime of lonely
Please

Hurry baby
I need you coming through that door
Hurry baby
I can’t be without you anymore
Come and save me
I’m losing it
I swear that this
Not kissin’ you, missin’ you is got me goin’ crazy
Hurry baby

Every single car that passes by
My heart beats faster everytime
I pray it’s your headlights coming home
If I could just speed up that clock
I’d get you here then make it stop
I’d wrap you in my arms
And love you real slow

Hurry baby
I need you coming through that door
Hurry baby
I can’t be without you anymore
Come and save me
I’m losing it
I swear that this
Not kissin’ you, missin’ you is got me goin’ crazy
Hurry baby

Hurry baby
Hurry baby
Come and save me
I’m losing it
I swear that this
Not kissin’ you, missin’ you is got me goin’ crazy
Hurry baby
I can’t be without you anymore
Hurry baby
Hurry baby
Not kissin’ you, missin’ you is got me
Is got me goin’ crazy

RASCAL FLATTS – Friday

Alarm clock, ding-dong, pants up, boots on
Coffee, cigarette, blue-collar breakfast
Hard hat, fork lift, dragging through a swing shift
Stacking up the boxes, watching that clock
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
Working for the man sure makes a man thirsty
Need a little neon, get a little drink on
Friday can’t come fast enough y’all

[Chorus:]
Na-na, na-na-na, na
Na-na, na-na-na, na
Let the good times roll when the guitars play
Here’s to another week gone
Raise ‘em up and sing along
Friday can’t come fast enough

Baby’s on the cell phone, calling from a tanning bed
Hit the mall, got a dress, nails done, hair did
Running through my money, like a water through a faucet
Well so dry you can here those dollars
Drip drop, drip drop, drip drop, drip drop
Payin’ them bills sure make a man thirsty
Need a little neon, time to get a drink on,
Friday can’t come fast enough

[Chorus:]
Na-na, na-na-na, na
Na-na, na-na-na, na
Let the good times roll when the guitars play
Here’s to another week gone
Raise ‘em up and sing along
Friday can’t come fast enough

Na-na, na-na-na, na
Na-na, na-na-na, na
Na-na, na-na-na, na

We need a little neon
Time to get your drink on
Friday can’t come fast enough
Here’s to another week gone
Raise ‘em up and sing along
Friday can’t come fast enough
(Yeah, friday can’t come fast enough)

RASCAL FLATTS – Great Big Love

Red light
Late again,

When will it end?

Cell phone

RASCAL FLATTS – Help Me Remember

I know that you’re leavin’
As soon as the sun
Comes through the window
There’s no talking this over
The damage is done
There’s just too much hurt
Too much to forgive
Oh, but we both know
We were’nt always like this

[CHORUS]
Help me remember
The way that we used to be
When nothin’ else mattered
“cause you were lovin’ me
Just for the night, one last time
One more good memory
When I look back
That’s what I wanna see

Oh, help me remember

Those days that were so good
Those nights that we held
Held on forever
When we weren’t pretenders
We were as real as we felt
Oh, I don’t want to fight anymore
Don’t want the last thing I hear tonight
To be a slammin’ door
Baby, let it be like before

[Repeat Chorus]

This could be the last time
I look in your eyes

Help me remember
The way that it used to be
When nothin’ else mattered
‘Cause you were lovin’ me
Oh, help me remember
Oh, help me, help me
Oh, oh, oh, oh-

Rascal Flatts – Come Wake Me Up

I can usually drink you right off of my mind
But I miss you tonight.
I can normally push you right out of my heart
But I’m too tired to fight

Yeah the whole thing begins
and I let you sink into my veins
And I feel the pain like its new
Everything that we were,
Everything that you said,
Everything I did and that I couldn’t do
Plays through tonight

With every word it grows higher and higher
I cant get over it I just cant put out this love
I just sit in these flames and pray that youll come back
Close my eyes tightly. Hold on and hope that im dreaming
Come wake me up.

Turn the tv up loud just to drown out your voice
But I cant forget

Deep inside of your dreams while I’m sitting here crying and trying to
sleep
Yeah wherever you are baby now I am sure you’ve moved on
And aren’t thinking twice about me And you tonight

RASCAL FLATTS – Every Day

You could’ve bowed out gracefully
But you didn’t
You knew enough to know
To leave well enough alone
But you wouldn’t
I drive myself crazy
Tryin’ to stay out of my own way
The messes that I make
But my secrets are so safe
The only one who gets me
Yeah, you get me
It’s amazing to me

[CHORUS]
How every day
Every day, every day
You save my life

I come around all broken down and
Crowded out
And you’re comfort
Sometimes the place I go
Is so deep and dark and desperate
I don’t know, I don’t know

[Repeat Chorus]

Sometimes I swear, I don’t know if
I’m comin’ or goin’
But you always say something
Without even knowin’
That I’m hangin’ on to your words
With all of my might and it’s alright
Yeah, I’m alright for one more night-
Every day
Every day, every day, every day
Every day, every day
You save me, you save me, oh, oh, oh
Every day
Every, every, every day-

Every day you save my life

RASCAL FLATTS – Fall Here

When you’re ready for love
And you’ve conquered your fear
And you wanna fall baby
Fall here

When you’ve had enough hurt
And you’re tired of the tears
If you wanna fall baby
Fall here

You’re broken and jaded
Say love’s overrated
But I say girl ain’t that a shame?
With all that he put you through
I can’t really blame you
But don’t let some fool give us all a bad name

When you’re ready for love
And you’ve conquered your fear

And you’re tired of the tears
Baby fall, baby fall here
Yeah, baby fall here

Rascal Flatts – A Little Home

5th floor, she’s up in her dorm
Studying for her mid term
She’s had, one of those weeks
Where the world it seems is against her
Right on cue, a picture pop up, on her laptop
She can’t pick herself on up fast enough

Sometimes you just need a little home
So hey mom and dad what’s going on?
I’m just checking in, no there ain’t nothing wrong
Sometime you just need a little home

Well he’s … sits down in the shed
Shoe box in his hand, half of world away
And he smiles, when he sees … to it’s …
He lays down his gun, know he can’t wait
Picks up a letter and something sweet
He takes a bite and reads
Now everybody sends their love, …tears off

Sometimes you just need a little home
A little … you know you’re not alone
To carry in your heart and keep your spirit strong
Sometimes you just need a little home

Sometimes, I like to drive back through … little town
Sometimes, and get my feet back on
And get my feet back on the ground

Sometimes you just need a little home
The little lady been gone way too long
Yeah way too long
No matter how…you get, oh
No matter how far you …
Sometimes you just need a little home
Home sweet home
Sometimes you just need a little home
Hey mom and dad what’s going on?

RASCAL FLATTS – Banjo

When I lose my smile
When my thoughts get jumbled
When the air and BS get too thick
Can’t take a breath without getting sick
I’ve had enough with this concrete jungle
I drop my truck in drive
I pick up my baby
She jumps in with a kiss and a hey
We exit off that old highway
Sometimes you gotta go beyond the pavement

[Chorus]
You gotta go deep
Way on back
Cross a few creeks
And a couple little shacks
You gotta get lost
Way on out
Crickets and frogs
Yeah you’re gettin’ close now
And you kick it into four wheel drive when you run out of road
And you go, and you go and you go-go-go
‘Til you hear a banjo

It ain’t on no map
And I’m glad it isn’t
Leave the phone and the GPS,
Those satellites ain’t found it yet,
Got our own little piece of heaven hidden

[Chorus]
Yeah, you gotta go deep
Way on back
Cross a few creeks
And a couple little shacks
You gotta get lost
Way on out
Crickets and frogs
Yeah you’re gettin’ close now
And you kick it into four wheel drive when you run out of road
And you go, and you go and you go-go-go
‘Til you hear a banjo

You gotta go deep
Way on back
Cross a few creeks
And a couple little shacks
You gotta get lost
Way on out
Crickets and frogs
Yeah you’re gettin’ close now
And you kick it into four wheel drive when you run out of road
And you go, and you go and you go and you go and you go

Oooh hoo

‘Til you hear that banjo
Kick it

You gotta go deep
Way on back
Oh oh oh
Cross a few creeks
