Dan Reising Better With You There
Words and music by : Daniel James Reising & Richard Patrick Reising
Intro:
My friends down in the fact’ry say I’m actin mighty strange
Its not that I look different, but somehow somethings changed
They ask me “Hows the wife & kids , I say…We’re all doin’ great”
But head hung low I turn & just keep walkin through the gate
Chorus
Cuz when I’d get home from work each night
You were
always there to greet me ( alternate 2nd verse : At the door to greet me)
With so much love my troubles seemed to
Fade & Turn to Smiles
You’d smother me with kisses
Sitting in that big old chair
Life was so much better with you there
Verse
I been tryin’ta pass the time without ya’
But things just ain’t the same
I stare at that old collar
Remembrin how I’d hollar out yer name
When I’d say, “C’mere boy…let’s go for a ride”
You’d beat me to the car each time
With the windows down , wind blowin in your face
REPEAT CHORUS
SOLO
Bridge I know ya had to leave..but its so hard on me
To go on without my best friend
Chorus ( mod )
Now when I get home from work each night
Yer not there to greet me
Suddenly I’m Troubled and its
Hard for me to smile
Left with no more kisses
Sittin alone in our old chair
Life was so much better,
Life was so much better…back when
Final
Chorus I’d get home from work each night
& you were at the door to greet me
With all that love that made my troubles
Fade & turn to smiles…
Smother me with kisses
Sittin in Our Big old chair
Life was so much better with you there
