Rob Snarski & Shane O'Mara - Inclination To The Blues

Words inspired by the music and tragically short life of Patsy Cline, beautifully crafted into song by Rob Snarski, during his 'Song Gift' project during lock-down in Victoria, Australia, 2020. Rob is accompanied by Shane O'Mara on electric guitar.

Inclination To The Blues

There may be a morning
There may be a few
Where loneliness lingers
Obscuring the view
Your fancy has left you
Leaving nothing to do
But lean on to, and under
The lamp-post of blues

The lamp-post of blues
on the street of despair
Under the weather and over with care

There may be a dawning
Upon your dark muse
The commitment to love
Leaves so little to choose
From the past to the present
The collection of dues
Of pure melancholy
From the debt labeled blues

The debt labeled blues
from the charge of despair
Under the weather and over with care

There may be a mourning
There may be sad news
The heart is in limbo
The soul slumbers too
You’re seeking deliverance
From the path that seems true
A strong inclination
To the faith of the blues

The faith of the blues
from the church of despair
Under the weather and over with care
