I've always loved Jackson Browne's music but I just this week discovered this song. I instantly fell in love with it and just had to cover it. This song is featured on his critically acclaimed and grammy nominated Solo Acoustic Vol. 1 album. Check it out! Thanks for watching.

As always please comment, rate, subscribe and share.

------------------
Running down around the towns along the shore
When I was sixteen and on my own
No, I couldnt tell you what the hell those brakes were for
I was just trying to hear my song

Jimmy found his own sweet sound and won that free guitar
Wed all get in the van and play
Life became the paradox, the bear, the rouge et noir
And the stretch of road running to l.a.

Pages turning
Pages we were years from learning
Straight into the night our hearts were flung

Better bring your own redemption when you come
To the barricades of heaven where Im from

All the world was shining from those hills
The stars above and the lights below
Among those there to test their fortunes and their wills
I lost track of the score long ago

Pages turning
Pages we were years from learning
Straight into the night our hearts were flung

Better bring your own redemption when you come
To the barricades of heaven where Im from

Childhood comes for me at night
Voices of my friends
Your face bathing me in light
Hope that never ends

Pages turning
Pages torn and pages burning
Faded pages, open in the sun

Better bring your own redemption when you come
To the barricades of heaven where Im from.
Better bring your own redemption when you come
To the barricades of heaven where Im from.
