The nice thing about the world that I’ve been able to inhabit for the last couple of years is that I’m given a lot of freedom. Not all artists really get that.
When every memory has been made and the pages start to fade. And every prayer you ever prayed is heaven bound. When you think the ride is over, you’re back at the beginning. Love is never-ending.
Can’t wait to date a supermodel, can’t wait to sue my Dad. Can’t wait to wreck a Ferrari, on the way to rehab.
I can fall in and out of love, have marriages that barely last a month. When they go down the drain, I’ll blame it on the fame.
I get to cry to Barbara Walters, when things don’t go my way. I’ll get community service no matter which laws I break.
Jackass millionaires, hey, hey, Hollywood, here we come.
When they say you’re the best, I always remember that the majority of the audience probably thinks someone else should have gotten the award.
Someday I’m gonna be famous. Do I have talent, well, no. These days you really don’t need it.
Even on the most serious ballads, I’ll throw in a tongue-in-cheek remark.

I imagine there’s a market for total depression. I grew up on George Jones and that really dark stuff.
If you fall in love with somebody, then you’re not even worried about your bills. Love can take your mind off of anything.
I’m aware of the fact that a lot of talented people out there will never get this chance.
If I get an idea for a song, I have a melody for it. I’m a musician first. I’m not limited by the fretboard.
If you’re really on top, you probably didn’t do that great, ’cause you have to water it down a bit for it to get that mass appeal.
I really worked to try and be creative enough on the guitar parts so those who aren’t real educated would know that there was some difficulty in doing it.
I have a to-do list and I have a farm I care for, and things I like to do for fun – going to movies and all that stuff. It’s a painfully normal life!
Guitar playing isn’t really for everybody.
She’s not perfect, but she tries so hard for me. And I thank God, that she isn’t, cause how boring that would be.
