State Of Mind

From the album: "No Time To Kill," (BMG Music, 1993) Written by Clint Black (ASCAP, 1993) NOTES: Each letter in the intro and the two verses (ie. the indented portions) represents 1 measure (4 beats). Each letter in the chorus/bridge represents only half a measure (2 beats). On the CD there is a long harmonica intro and fiddle outro which are not transcribed. INTRO: Got a big leather suitcase, all I own's inside. Seems I been walkin' for days, can't even bum a ride. Try steppin' to a tune, with the rhythm of a walking man; Mind drifts like a big balloon, out of my situation at hand. Ain't it funny how a melody, can bring back a memory? Take you to another place in time, completely change your state of mind. Walkin' down a lonely highway, not feelin' alone; Thinkin' back when things went my way, and not the road I'm on. Well, I've been down a time or two, but it never lasts long; I can always make it through, on a wing and a prayer and a song. Ain't it funny how a melody, can bring back a memory? D{stop} Take you to another place in time, completely change your state of mind. It can make a right from a wrong, it can make you fall in love. It can get you singin' along, chase the clouds away and make the sun shine above. A melody, can bring back a memory. Take you to another place in time, completely change your state of mind. A melody, can bring back a memory. Take you to another place in time, completely change your state of mind. Transcribed and submitted by Darragh Egan
