    Default Diffrtent Air


    This is Sarah Kirkland singing a song that Curt Collins and I Co-Wrote with her called Different Air. Sarah is in the studio this week recording a full-band version of this song for her next CD but like most Songwriters, I seem to always prefer these simple Guitar / Vocals to the “Full Studio Productions.”

    This recording was done at M.E.G Studios here in Nashville. I played one guitar track and then Sarah added the vocal track. I didn’t sweeten this track with additional guitar parts like I normally do because I was trying to duplicate our “Live Sound.” We’ve been performing Different Air around Nashville at the different songwriter venues and that Live Acoustic Guitar / Vocal sound is what Nashville is all about for songwriters.

    Just Click The Title to the Song below ... it's a LINK to Reverb Nation where you can hear the song. Thank You for taking the time to listen,


    Different Air

    Verse:
    I left Memphis in the middle of the night
    Didn't dare wake him just to lose another fight
    Took all my pride and half of my clothes
    He didn’t deserve a good bye note

    Pre-Chorus:
    Drivin’ 80 miles an hour with a headlight gone hope I got enough gas to make it ‘till dawn
    My whole life’s stuffed in the trunk of this car me and this Chevy’s never been this far

    Chorus:
    One mile at a time past another exit sign
    By another off ramp with Carolina on my mind
    I need somewhere new to say my old prayers
    I’ll drive as long as it takes to breathe different air

    Verse:
    Got my cell phones off and the radio on
    ‘Cause I know he’ll be callin’ when he sees I’m gone
    This time he won’t talk me into turnin’ around
    I know where I’m goin’ and I ain’t breakin’ down

    Pre-Chorus:
    I’ve been savin’ my tips for the last three weeks plannin’ every night ‘fore I fell asleep
    I’ve thought this through a thousand times I’m takin’ back my life and leavin’ him behind

    Chorus:
    One mile at a time past another exit sign
    By another off ramp with Carolina on my mind
    I need somewhere new to say my old prayers
    I’ll drive as long as it takes to breathe different air

    Bridge:
    I stayed on I 40 East all the way to the sea
    I got out of my car and I walked on the beach
    Where I can finally breathe, just breathe, just breathe

    Chorus:
    One mile at a time past another exit sign
    By another off ramp with Carolina on my mind
    I found somewhere new to say my same old prayers
    I drove as long as it took to breathe different air

    Tag:
    I left Memphis in the middle of the night
    Didn't dare wake him just to lose another fight
