Catching Up - John Moreland

Now trouble comes and goes

Ain’t nothing new I suppose

Weight of the world, win and lose

And all that defeat has a way of catchin' up to you

You know The Bass left me sore

But it’s that same pass I gotta be thankful for

You know I can’t change what’s always gonna be

I try to keep movin' but it always catches up to me

No you can’t put a man at ease after you take him from his home

I got a hard road up ahead now, and a long way left to go

And I keep on lookin' back over my shoulder

Looks like the world’s gettin' colder

And now I’m haunted by the hope, days I’ll never know

I hear the church bells ring, the choir sing, wakin' up the ghost

And I keep on looking back over my shoulder

See the devil get closer

And trouble, time has tell

Look for the good in the stories, time will tell

And when they follow the bad and the blue

Just keep on movin', don’t let 'em catch up to you (no, no, no)
