  1. Pick Me Up

From the recording Here Before

Share

Frank: Like a few others around this time period, this one was written very fast. Just playing around on the guitar between songs at rehearsal, I came up with this chord change, and Luisa started singing the first thing that popped into her head. Still needing to rehearse, we quickly put this down on our digital recorder so we wouldn’t forget it. Came back to it a few months (or years maybe?) later and polished it off.
This is a fun one to play live!

Lyrics

F. Veres/L. Tanno

Pick me up, I need get up
Made up my mind, now its time
To step it up, I need to wake up
Right now, somehow

Do you ever lie around feelin’ down?
Wanting to break out, find your way off shaky ground
Waiting to wander, get out from under
You know you need more, we’ve all been there before

Pick me up, I need get up
Made up my mind, now its time
To step it up, I need to wake up
Right now, somehow

Yeah, yeah I feel it, it can be mine
Yeah, yeah I’ll take you with me every time
Time it will move on, wasted on no one
Kick down the door
Run out and look for more

Pick me up, I need to get up
Made up my mind, now it’s time

Do you want it? Do you need it?
If you feel it
You really gotta bring yourself right to it
You can do it

Pick up and take me
(Made up my mind, it’s time so please)
Pick up and take me
(My hand’s to you, help pull me through please)
Pick up and take me
(Made up my mind, it’s time so please)

Luisa: lead vocal, acoustic guitar, percussion
Frank: harmony vocal, 12 string guitar, archtop guitar, percussion
Chris Aleo: drums
Billy Bileca: bass
