Counting Crows

Counting Crows had their origins in the duo Sordid Humor, formed in 1989 by Adam Duritz (vocals) and David Bryson (guitar). The duo expanded in 1991 to include Mat Malley (bass), Steve Bowman (drums), and Charles Gillingham (keyboards). Their name was changed to Counting Crows. They signed to Geffen Records and their acclaimed 1993 debut album August And Everything After was produced by T-Bone Burnett. "Mr. Jones" became a huge US hit and also reached the UK top 30. The album went multi-platinum as "Rain King," "Round Here," and "Einstein on the Beach" also became hits. In 1994 Bowman left to join Third Eye Blind. He was replaced by ex-Cracker member Ben Mize and Dan Vickrey (lead guitar/mandolin) was also added to the band. Their 1996 follow up, Recovering The Satellites, debuted at number 1 in the US and reached the UK Top 5. The album had two big rock hits, "Angels of the Silences" and "A Long December." A double live album, Across A Wire: Live In New York, was released in 1998. 1999's This Desert Life reached the US Top 10 and "Hanginaround" was an across the board hit. Counting Crows' next album, 2002's Hard Candy, reached US and UK Top 10 and featured additional guitarist David Immerglück. (http://www.prex.com/biography/Counting-Crows-discography.html)

Accidentally In Love - Counting Crows

So she said what's the baby
What's the problem I don't know
Well maybe I'm in love (love)
Think about it every time
I think about it
Can't stop 'bout it

How much longer will it take to cure this
Just to cure it cause I can't ignore it if it's love (love)
Makes me wanna turn around and face me but I ______ know nothing
'bout love

Come on, come on
Turn a little faster
Come on, come on
The world follow after
Come on, come on
Cause everybody's after love

So I said I'm a snowball ______
Running down into the spring that's _________all this love
Melting under blue skies
Belting out sunlight
Shimmering love

Well baby I surrender
To the strawberry ice cream
______ ever end of all this love
Well I didn't mean to do it
But there's no _______your love

These lines of ______
Mean we're never alone,
Never alone, no, no

Come on, Come on
Move a little _____
Come on, Come on
I want to hear you whisper
Come on, Come on
Settle down inside my love

Come on, come on
_______a little higher
Come on, come on
If you feel a little lighter
Come on, come on
We _____once
Upon a time in love

We're accidentally in love
Accidentally in love (x7)

Accidentally

I'm In Love, I'm in Love,
I'm in Love, I'm in Love,
I'm in Love, I'm in Love,
Accidentally (X 2)

Come on, come on
Spin a little tighter
Come on, come on
And the world's a little brighter
Come on, come on
Just ____yourself inside her

Love ...I'm in love
