They say that music calms the savage beast
And helps a heartache settle down
Thats what I need tonight to sooth me
And dull her memory when it comes around
Tipjars and teardrops
Sad songs for lonely hearts
A temporary cure for the blues I got
I get loose when I hear guitars but then the music stops
And all thats left is tipjars and teardrops
She used to fill my heart with melody
Lovin words Id never heard before
Now without her Im in quiet misery
And I cant take this silence anymore
Chorus
