Occasionally, it would feature a cool harmonica part by Sandy

Garfinkle. Emily, by the way, claims to hate playing this song,
lyrics is compiled from ten different versions, so it's really kind
which is pretty odd, considering it's still in their repetoire, and
likely will be on the next album. This particular version of the
of a "best of." Whatever I heard most often. Nashville. As I drive from your pearly gates
I realize that I just can't stay
All those mountains, they kept you locked inside And hid the truth from my slotted eyes
I came to you with a halfDreams upon my back Nashville, can't I carry the load?
Nashville, did you give me half a chance
Is it my fault that I can't reap what I sow?
(Now you dance away, now you dance away)
With your southern style, and your hidden dance away?
They said I was falling fast, they say I'm losing it all All those voices, they whisper through my walls
They say I'm running blind to love of my own
But I'll be walking proud
I fell on my knees to kiss your land
And I can't even see to stand in Nashville
But you are so far down
You forgot the human race
What colors are the face?
You see with have a mind
Nashville, I'd like to know your fate
But I've seen your lowered states today
I'd like to stay a while (I've seen them today, honey, I swear I've seen them today)
Now I'm leaving You know we all have our dues I'd never ask that you pay me back
We all arrive with more
A last chance for a cause I thought I knew
Your town is made for people passing through
But, Nashville, you tell me what you're gonna do
With all your Southern style Nashville, I can't place no blame
(No, never again, never again) But if you forget my face I'll never call your name again
But you are so far down
I fell on my knees to kiss your land
And I can't even see to stand in Nashville
You see with half a mind
You forgot the human race
What colors are the face?
Nashville, I'd like to know your fate
I'd like to stay a while
But I've seen your lowered states today
(I've seen them today, honey, I swear I've seen them today
I'm running away, I'm running away
I'm running, I'm running, I'm running away.
