Record Year

Written by：Jeff Hyde/Eric Church

Since you turned the tables on me

I've been steady and learnin' lonely

Keepin' this turntable spinnin'

Everything from Jones to Jennings

Slowly plannin' my survival

In a three-foot stack of vinyl

Since you had to walk on outta here

I've been havin' a record year

I bet you thought before you left

I'd just sit in silence by myself

Turn this house into a jail

Dyin' slow in a livin' hell

But love's got a funny way of keepin' score

And your leavin' lit up my scoreboard

I usually make it through side A sober

All bets are off when I flip her over

One bourbon one scotch one beer

I'm havin' a record year

Quarter notes and Hank's half time

Are poundin' on this heart of mine

Song to song I pass my time

With these speakers on ten

Your good-and-gone keeps me up all night

Along with songs In The Key Of Life

I'm either gonna get over you

Or I'm gonna blow out my ears

Yeah you're out there now

Doin' God knows how and I'm stuck here

Havin' a record year

Your leavin' left me goin' crazy

I'm countin' on a needle to save me

I drop it in the groove

And we go 'round and 'round

And down in a spiral

I guess I really oughta call and thank you

I rediscovered Red Headed Stranger

Got down with old James Brown

And found New Grass Revival

If you find your way back I owe you a beer

For my record year

Quarter notes and Hank's half time

Are poundin' on this heart of mine

Song to song I pass my time

With these speakers on ten

Your good-and-gone keeps me up all night

Along with songs In The Key Of Life

I'm either gonna get over you

Or I'm gonna blow out my ears

Yeah you're out there now

Doin' God knows how and I'm stuck here

Havin' a record year

Yeah I'm havin' a record year
