You ever heard the story
Of Mr. Faded Glory?
Say he who rides a pony must someday fall
I been talkin' to my alter
Says life is what you make it
And if you make it death well then rest
Your soul away
Away away yeah
It's a broken kind of feeling
She'd have to tie me to the ceiling
A bad moon's a comin'
Better say your prayers
I wanna tell you that I love you
But does it really matter?
I just can't stand to see you dragging down
Again, again, again
So I'm singing
This is my kinda love
It's the kind that moves on
It's the kind that leaves you alone
This is my kinda love
It's the kind that moves on
It's the kind and leaves me alone
I used to treat you like a lady
Now you're a substitute teacher
This bottle's not a prayer, not a prayer in sight
I owe the man some money
So I'm turnin over honey
Oh Mr. Faded Glory is once again doin' time
This is my kinda love
It's the kind that moves on
It's the kind that leaves me alone
This is my kinda love
It's a crown of thorns
It's the kind that
It's the kind that leaves me alone
Like a crown of thorns
It's all who you know
So don't burn your bridges cause
Someday, yeah
Start singing
This is my kinda love
It's the kind that moves on
It's the kind that leaves me alone
This is my kinda love
It's a crown of thorns
It's the kind that leaves me alone

Let's hear it for Jeff and Stone. They've been together for a long, long time. Here's to long term relationships. We've had a great tour. Long term relationships. And there's no band therapist in this bizz. It's all just us. It's just all good. But Jeff and Stone, and I believe Bruce Fairweather is in the house tonight, and Kim Thayll. This song - I think the very first time we played this song, it had to be have been in Seattle, but for some reason, we haven't played it in Seattle since 1992. I don't know if there's a reason. We're about to find out
