The Ready Set es el nombre artístico del músico estadounidense Jordan Witzigreuter. Su primer single, &quot;Love Like Woe&quot; fue lanzado en marzo de 2010.  Historia El proyecto se inició en noviembre del 2007. Jordan Witzigreuter comenzó a tocar la batería a los 11 años. Cuando empezó a escribir sus letras, Jordan fue parte de un dúo acústico, pero cuando el otro miembro del dúo decidió hacer algo diferente, que finalmente llevó a la formación de The Ready Set. El proyecto comenzó a ganar popularidad en línea y con los tours en los que participó Jordan, y pronto tuvo una amplia cantidad de fans. 

Witzigreuter told myYearbook (Source Love Like Woe Songfacts): &quot;I wrote a first version of that song about a year ago. It used to be called 'Sign of Relief' and it was lyrically way different. It had the same chorus; it had the same melodies and structure. At the time that I wrote it, I just wrote words that sounded cool together. It didn't make too much sense. Then I came back and rewrote the song. I rewrote all the lyrics and tried to make it a little bit more cohesive.

I'm thinking, baby, you and I are undeniable
           Gm
But I'm finding out loves unreliable
                  Eb     
I'm giving all I got just to make you stay
                  F
Or am I just a roadblock in your way?

                 Bb   
Cause you're a pretty little windstorm out on the boulevard
                   Gm
Something like a Sunset, oh you're a shooting star
               Eb
And I might drive myself insane
           F
If those lips aren't speakin my name

         Bb
Cause I got some intuition,

or maybe Im superstitious
        Gm
But I think you're a pretty sweet pill
                    Eb
that Im swallowing down

To counter this addiction

you've got me on a mission
         F                            Eb
Tell me darling, can I get a break somehow?

Eb                              F

Gm
Catch her in the fast lane, oh I gotta know,
Eb

Pulling up the sun

Can I get your lips to speak my name?

Love Like Woe

C           Dm                                 F
 Assuming I know that people around are moving to downtown
                 G            C
They're learning to get down. woah
               Dm                                  F
And let me say here, I'm glad that they lost their fears
                             G                 G
I'm glad that they cut their tears, 'cause I'm over that
C          Dm                    Am
Change can run around your head, kill your thoughts instead
            F                   G
Leaving you spinning around and all out of control
C               Dm                          Am
And lately it's amazing, I'm not letting it phase me
F                     G
But I'm feeling alive tonight
F               G
Will you let me shine?

C                         Am                            F
You spelled my name, when I was young, I need you right there
            G
And you ran so fast
C                       Am                      F
You stayed the same, oh melody, i hope that you care
F         G
You care, you care, you care

F            G           Am
Girls on the west coast, sing it like you used to
F           G           Am
Boys on the east coast, scream with some heart

C                  Dm
Six years, and i'm learning about the darker side
F                                       G
I'm getting a feel for the faster life, I took sides
C                   Dm
Long nights and the drives we made through
F                      G
Oh what I did for you, well it took some time
F          G
Can I live my dream?


C                         Am                            F
You spelled my name, when I was young, I need you right there
            G
And you ran so fast
C                       Am                      F
You stayed the same, oh melody, i hope that you care
F         G
You care, you care, you care

Dm             F
And I'll never see the world without you
C
And I'm all about how it's gonna be
G
And I'm all about how it's gonna be
Dm         F                       G
You opened up the world around me, me
Am                               C                               G
I couldn't have made it through, I'm counting all my debts in my head
      C
in my head
                Am G
And I'll always be here


C                         Am                            F
You spelled my name, when I was young, I need you right there
            G
And you ran so fast
C                       Am                      F
You stayed the same, oh melody, i hope that you care
F         G
You care, you care, you care

F            G           Am
Girls on the west coast, sing it like you used to
F           G           Am
Boys on the east coast, scream with some heart

F            G       Am
I'll write a song to remember where I came from
F                 G                 C
Just give me that sound, I'll be fine

I'm Alive, I'm Dreaming

Em
Snowbird

Dm
And I will chase the sun in flight
F
Till I'm there, I'll be there

Em                G   
Ooh, winter came, I was gone
Dm                  F
Flight departures, times we've lost
Em               G
Saw you standing in the snow

Such a vibrant glow

To make a checkmark on my wish list, baby

Em
Airplane
G
Could you take me far away
Dm
To the snow enveloped plains
               F
Cause she's there, cause she's there



Em
I fly
G
In a coast to coast charade

But if only for one day
        F
I'll be there, I'll be there

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.

ooh you're overreacting

Overreacting

C#
There's a portrait
     Ab
In a back room
           F#
Which I'll keep for days upon
          C#
Which I relent 
              B
And gaze for hours on
    Bbm                  F#
The muscle, skin and bone
         Ab
Of some imaginary friend

F# Ab F#

        C#
So how about it 
        Ab
Show me please 
           F#
How I will look in twenty years
           C#
And let me please 
          B
Interpret history 
       Bbm        F#
In every line and scar 
               Ab                  
That's painted there in front of me

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

           C#
It doesn't matter
         Ab
What I'm thinking
       F#
What I tell myself to do
         C#      F#
I end up calling

       C#
I stay in to
                   Ab
Defrost the fridge
        F#
Now the kid has gone to bed
             C#
A feeling of dread
              B         
At least when she's around
    Bbm
The trouble's there
     F#                        Ab
It's worse to wake up with her falling 'round the room

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

       C#
Listen Johnny
              F#
You're like a mother
       C#                     F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

       C#
Listen Johnny
              Ab
You're like a mother
       F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

            B
And if they come tonight
       Bbm
You'll roll up tight
     F#             Ab
And take whatever's coming to you next (oh, oh oh oh)

 F# Ab to end.
