FYI you might wanna check out shakeys bandcamp on feb 9th next year. His back catalogue, including this, usually goes on sale (name your price iirc) for a few days to commemorate Shakey Graves day.
[Verse 1] So you wake up thirty-five With a child and a bride In time, I know, you've seen it all before But not on you, no, no, no No, I don't believe it's true [Chorus:] You say, "I've lived enough of famous nights All by my lone" And I would like to be the dark And I would want her, too Oh, baby, maybe Once in a while [Verse 2] So don't tell me I'll tell you Oh yeah I've been here for a while Oh the world ain't free No, the world ain't free But it always pays to fake a smile Oh yeah so save your money and wake up broke Yeah worry late or worry no (no) Oh oh write it down in a big old book Throw it under the bed and never look [Chorus:] You say, "I've lived enough of famous nights All by my lone" And I would like to be the dark And I would want her, too Oh, baby, maybe Once in a while [Verse 3] 'Cause here in the big easy Yeah, I would like to be only here Once in a while From the bottom of the moon To the bottom of my glass It's not far Yeah, don't you see that I Have nothing better to do
There was a time when everything was okay, and we had good times. Laughed and smiled and loved. We listened to this on the way to your mom and dad's for Christmas, and it gave me a weird feeling. 4 years later after the fights and the screaming and the lies, it still gives me that same weird feeling. I don't miss you and I know my life is better without you, but that doesn't mean I can't mourn who you were and what we had, before it got bad.
it's on one of his secret albums. he releases all of them, as well as his regularly available albums, for "name your price" (free, if you so desire) on february 9, which is known as shakey graves day. they're only up for three days and then you've gotta wait another year to get another chance. they're also available through incredibly obscure peer to peer software, but not your typical torrent sites.
hey people of the comment section, i just wanted to share a message: we're part of a strange event, we call it nature or the universe but these are just words, the real thing is not a name. apparently there is something happening and we are a part of it. and also, we're in this event as humans, these kind of smart primates .. it's something very strange, nothing short of magic. i'm not sure what this all means but i think you need to know this.
TheCoin100 I appreciate that somebody else floating around out there shares the same kind of sentiment as I do. Keep your head up, eyes open and ear pitched. 🍻
Was obsessed with this one senior year of high school. Forgot about it, came back one drunken night crying.
Fucken mood
forever thankful for the youtube accounts that have posted his hidden songs like this a decade ago
Low key shakeys best song. And still can’t listen to it anywhere else other than RUclips 😅

[Verse 1]
So you wake up thirty-five
With a child and a bride
In time, I know, you've seen it all before
But not on you, no, no, no
No, I don't believe it's true
[Chorus:]
You say, "I've lived enough of famous nights
All by my lone"
And I would like to be the dark
And I would want her, too
Oh, baby, maybe
Once in a while
[Verse 2]
So don't tell me
I'll tell you
Oh yeah I've been here for a while
Oh the world ain't free
No, the world ain't free
But it always pays to fake a smile
Oh yeah so save your money and wake up broke
Yeah worry late or worry no (no)
Oh oh write it down in a big old book
Throw it under the bed and never look
[Chorus:]
You say, "I've lived enough of famous nights
All by my lone"
And I would like to be the dark
And I would want her, too
Oh, baby, maybe
Once in a while
[Verse 3]
'Cause here in the big easy
Yeah, I would like to be only here
Once in a while
From the bottom of the moon
To the bottom of my glass
It's not far
Yeah, don't you see that I
Have nothing better to do
The life is strange days are missed. This shakey sound is so good

This guy is amazing
Such an awesome song I'm surprised there isn't many comments
Its bugs me because none of this Lp is on his bandcamp or his website and this is the first I have heard of this
+Tyler Ewing Only on Shakey Graves day, my friend.
February 9th, mark the day friend. You can download his discography on bandcamp for name your price on Shakey Graves day and two days afterwards.
It is on his bandcamp now I believe. I recently purchased this album.
Welcome to Shakey fandom lol
3 years later still can't purchase this song anywhere :(
Keep an eye on the calendar, on February 9th he has his albums up for free on his bandcamp!
love it

just pick it up and start playing. wish in one hand shit in the other. let me know which one fills up first.
Connor Sherrets a good old grandfather expression.
Gotta learn how to play this one
the most beatles song that isnt the beatles.
The comments have stopped but on the of chance anyone sussed our the chords for this?
...another famous night spent alone.. was too depressed to make this comment on new years
was also listening to this all by my lone on new years :)
I was gonna say a man who listens to shakey when he’s lonely is gonna find himself a sweet lil thang one of these days ;)
the part at the end, what is that from?
Reallll late reply but I'm pretty sure it's a little sketch between Shakey and Esme
Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo
3:31 the ending ruins this song
I don't think so
I feel you, but after a few times of playing this on loop and hearing that lady complain about ozone…… man, girls are wack 😂
