Lyrics

Verse 1

My voice cracks on the low notes

So I reach up where the air gets thin

Somewhere between a whisper and a yelp

That's where I live now

Friendly folks at the bar say

Why you talkin' like a schoolgirl

I just smile and order another

And let the jukebox spin

Chorus

Falsetto

High and lonesome

Falsetto

Like a screen door summer

Falsetto

My passenger seat singing

Falsetto

To the dashboard light

Verse 2

The doctor says it's nodes

Something growing where it shouldn't

But I been cracking since I was twelve

In the back of my daddy's truck

Shel Silverstein on the tape deck

Waylon Jennings after that

I learned to jump the register

Before I learned to shave

Chorus

Falsetto

High and lonesome

Falsetto

Like a screen door summer

Falsetto

My passenger seat singing

Falsetto

To the dashboard light

Bridge

Maybe it's a coping thing

Maybe it's the only way

To say what can't be said

In a regular voice

Regular voice

Chorus

Falsetto

High and lonesome

Falsetto

Like a screen door summer

Falsetto

My passenger seat singing

Falsetto

To the dashboard light
