Out Past Midnight

[Intro] [soft] [breathy] [intimate] Mmm-mmm... Ahh-ahh... One foot down One breath in Don't know where I'm going But I know where I've been [Verse 1] [close mic] [smooth] [soulful] Midnight hanging heavy in the trees Warm air moving slowly over me There's a rhythm somewhere down the road So I follow where the low notes go No destination written on my skin No need to know how this will end I leave the noise a mile behind And let the night rearrange my mind [Instrumental Build] [build] [filtered] Ooh... Keep it moving Keep it moving... [Verse 2] [intimate] [slightly raw] Bare feet pressing gravel into ground Every little movement makes a sound Bass starts talking underneath my feet Guitar answers somewhere off the beat I don't need a reason anymore I forgot what I was looking for Something in the air has pulled me loose Nothing left to prove and none to lose [Chorus] [lift] [harmonized] [emotional] Out past midnight I come alive Body keeps moving Don't ask me why Out past midnight I lose the time Let that guitar Mess with my mind Oh-oh... Take me somewhere I don't need to understand [Instrumental] [spacious delay] [Verse 3] [smooth] [close mic] Morning can wait another hour or two Right now I've got better things to do Let the rhythm bend me out of shape Let the guitar find another way Round and round the same four bars return Every time they come around they burn Add another layer, let it grow Start it quiet, then lose control [Bridge] [stripped back] [dry] Strip it down Just the bass Just the drum One guitar Here it comes Mmm... Again Bass Drum Guitar Again Bass Drum Guitar Now let it run [Extended Guitar Solo] [full energy] [soaring] [emotional] [Chorus] [powerful] [harmonized] [wide] Out past midnight I come alive Body keeps moving Don't ask me why Out past midnight I lose the time Let that guitar Mess with my mind Out past midnight No finish line We can keep turning One more time Oh-oh... Take me somewhere I don't need to understand [Instrumental Climax] [explode] [reverb] [Outro] [soft] [breathy] [intimate] One foot down One breath in Morning's coming... But I'm not finished yet Mmm-mmm... Not finished yet
