Artist Song
clap your hands and say yeah  the skin of my yellow country teeth 
damien rice  cannonball 
peter bjorn and john  young folks 
the apples in stereo  same old drag 
tom waits   long way home 
amos lee  colors 
jawbreaker  kiss the bottle 
arlo guthrie  miss the mississippi and you 
randy newman  living without you 
wilco and billy bragg  at my window sad and lonely 

Comment:

she had concerns about my drinking, she tested me, i affirmed her fears, i lost her. she has and will always have concerns about my drinking. but now that ive cleaned up, how do i redeem myself and prove that i love her and i want her back? that she can trust me, and that im worth her taking the chance. shes so special, and is worth the try. so, i need a start and i want to begin with a nice typewritten letter and a mix cd. as for the mix, help is encouraged here!!!

since you've gone & picked some great tunes here, & you seem genuinely regretful, i'd be happy to help you out. toss me an e-mail via my aotm profile page & i'd be glad to give you a hand. (i know this situation pretty well, so i can say that i'd be of some helpful service, if i can say so myself.)

This mix is asking for some Mountain Goats: "Going to Georgia" is such a classic as is "Masher," but there are so many heartbreaking love songs to choose from

Hmmm...
I like the CYHSY ... not so sure about Tom Waits. What about some Wolf Parade? Maybe 'Grounds for Divorce?' Or maybe Arcade Fire's "Crown of Love"? Maybe a bit hackneyed here, with iterations of "forgive me," but still good.

"I Can Get Off On You" by Willie & Waylon (on the lighter side of trading in vices for love.) Good luck!

If you want a beautiful Tom Waits love song, go with "Picture In A Frame". Good luck.
