M. Ward - O'Brien/O'Brien's Nocturne lyrics
[M. Ward - O'Brien/O'Brien's Nocturne lyrics]
Well we talked about old times like
A couple of old guys
And took a little walk to
The old baseball diamond
And along came O'Brien with a
Guitar in his hand
Met us on the field with impeccable timing
He said "I got a new song to show ya
"Though it prob'ly ain't gonna
Blow your mind"
And the thing about O'Brien was
He could always make a string
Buzz like it was 1989
And I remembered that old car and
That old girlfriend of mine
It was a cracked wooden thing, he said
"Wanna talk about old strings?
"It's been 10
12 years since I last changed mine"
And it said
Sears down the neck had a little
Blood stain on the 2nd fret
But, you know it still keeps impeccable time
And he said "I got a brand
New song to show ya
"Though it prob'ly ain't gonna
Blow your mind"
And the thing about O'Brien was
He could always make that string buzz
Like it was still 1989
And I remembered that old car and
That old girlfriend of mine
A couple of old guys
And took a little walk to
The old baseball diamond
And along came O'Brien with a
Guitar in his hand
Met us on the field with impeccable timing
He said "I got a new song to show ya
"Though it prob'ly ain't gonna
Blow your mind"
And the thing about O'Brien was
He could always make a string
Buzz like it was 1989
And I remembered that old car and
That old girlfriend of mine
It was a cracked wooden thing, he said
"Wanna talk about old strings?
"It's been 10
12 years since I last changed mine"
And it said
Sears down the neck had a little
Blood stain on the 2nd fret
But, you know it still keeps impeccable time
And he said "I got a brand
New song to show ya
"Though it prob'ly ain't gonna
Blow your mind"
And the thing about O'Brien was
He could always make that string buzz
Like it was still 1989
And I remembered that old car and
That old girlfriend of mine
