Future in the Past

I said, oh, watching
Never heard it all
One by one, though I'd find
Melitng down
Soon I hit the ground
Up so fast
The future in the past

Oh, oh
The future's in the past, wooh
Oh yeah, hey
Uh

Well, I was think in it's the real thing
Broken like a mustang
We got everybody talkin
Yeah, they talkin
Well I got mine
Woo
Hey

I got a funky, funky feeling
Somewhere in the past
Still everyday believing
Oh, I'm believin
Saving the best the best for last
Huh
Yeah
Oh
Saving the best for last
Wooh
Saving the best for last

Ya- ya-ya-ya-ya
Ya- ya-ya-ya-ya

Hey, hey, hey

Yeah, come on
Come on
Future's in the past
I'm gonna listen
Life ain't 'bout no hurry
I'm gonna save
Come on, comeon
The future's in the past

Listen to my friend
Let sciend
Song that never ends, come on
Yeah, come one
The future in the past

We don't have to worry 'bout
We each make
Are melted by the sun, o
Come on
Come on

Future's in the past
Climb on the mount
Listen to the ma
Beside you and me

Come on
Come on
Future's in the past
Future is so pastuyeah
Come on

Future is the past, come on
Come on
Come on
Future is in the past come on

well we asked the man himself backsatge in Indio, and he confirmed it is in fact "silence". don't get it much more from the source than that!!

oh, and regarding my earlier post about this...he verified that the first line of verse 2 for "BBTW" is "...up Canal, down Magazine..."

he also once again sang the wrong line for "Learning to Fall"...LOL at least he's consistent!!

I would have to say, Silence, I think I know Sam enough from his lyrics, that Science is not his church. NO Offense to anyone!

thank you JA...you know this is a pet peeve of mine, and this one was really butchered.

That's okay, both times I have seen Sammy sing "Learning to Fall" he sings the wrong lyric in the beginning, he sings "trying to fly again" when on the album it's "learning to fly again". But he wrote the damn song and he's Sammy so who am I to question.....ha!!

oh and I always sing "let silence be my church" too. Now if we can just figure out what he says to start the second verse of BBTW....something like "buck canal down magazine"? Huh? I dunno. LOL!!!

Let science be my church

Hey Jan!

Ya know, I hedged on that one when I typed it in because I swear I have heard it BOTH ways before (in different videos and recordings of it) but that's what the lyrics are in the Chickenfoot song book we have so I went with that! :-)
Only way to know for sure would be to ask Sammy I guess!
Thanks for the heads up on that!

Hope you're doing great!!!

~JA~
