Roger
I didn't mean to sound like I was complaining, I was just messing around with it and came up with that verse. I don't even play it very well yet but it is one of my favs to listen to. Hope everyone has fun with these songs

Ok...
Since no one has taken the bait for the song I chose, I'm adding another verse to end it !
I thought maybe if it was more personal, it would attract a player or two. 
I tried to fit as many in as I could, please don't be offended if you got left out - I left myself out too!
here's the additional lyric.....
[G] Amy, Phill , and Roger [C] Joey , Dino too
[G]Mojo,Graham, n' Badeye [C] playing the blues
[G] Beamer,Doug, [G7]Zurf and [C]Strummerboy [C7]Bill
[C] Jan ,Pete, BGD, and [C7]Uncle [C] Joe
[G] TF, Ed, n’ Russell, ain’t [D] quite ready to[G] go
Lord, wait to [D] call these blues stringers back [G]home
[G]yeah, wait to [D] call these blues stringers back [G]home
Lord, wait to [D] call another blues stringer back [G]home
Lord, wait to [D] call a Chordie stringer back [G]home
Lord, wait to [D] call a Chordie stringer back [G]home
Hope you like it.....

Re: Copperhead Road Guitalele cover (3 replies, posted in Bands and artists)
That's a way cool instrument there Graham - you play it so well.
Steve Earle and his son Justin Townes Earle are two of my favorite performers. Copperhead road is truly a classic.
Very nicely done.

Re: Stand Up, Stand Up TIGLJK (9 replies, posted in Songwriting)
Yes very sad
When I was 20 years old I was driving a very good friend Henry Boone home from a softball game Henry was about 6'4 and 280, and very Black. Not an easy guy to miss. I was pulled over by Nassau county police of Long Island and they did not even care I was in car they made Henry get out and they searched him and under his seat. Never even asked me for my drivers license. After they left I was profusely apologizing to Henry and he just put his fingers to his lips and said " Sshhh It happens regularly in my life"
That was my first eye opening introduction to racial profiling. I was stunned and have never forgotten that night!
So sadpeople can't just accept others unconditionally. Thanks for the comment blue jeep

Hi Bill ... great to hear from you!
I don't participate in any "social media" sites (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, etc.), and only take part in two forums, being Chordie and a fly-fishing site. We lead a quiet, private life in rural Nova Scotia, and while it may be boring to some it's just the way we like it.
Bill,
it's pretty much the same with me - I don't do fb or twitter or pinterest either
I do however like people here on Chordie - so I'll just enjoy this - it's more than enough for me.
Happy summer to you and Dondra!

I am so displeased with what America has become.
The media twists everything, people out of control acting like fools !
Americans have to stand up and be counted before this gets out of hand.
I WROTE THIS THIS MORNING AFTER READING SOME OF THE NEWS STORIES.

Topic: Phill's song One More Game - different version (3 replies, posted in Songwriting)
I pestered Phill into re-recording his song One More Game for me. I thought it needed a bit more anguish and agony, as gambling addition is so powerful. He graciously did so !
I think he performed excellent as per usual on both versions. Here is the new version - thought you would like to hear it as well.

Re: That darn F chord on Guitar (20 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Jan
I know what you are saying girl.
I used to avoid the F like it was a disease.
Now I kind of prefer the F - I like it's sound along with the C.
Remember - the first guys naming notes probably named it an " F " chord for a reason !
Keep on keeping on - it will get easier.

Re: football (soccer) (10 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Alas, Germany, Germany,Germany!
So technically-tactically , sound and tenacious.
Italy played great, but could not bring them down. Mueller is so darn good, the goalie is the best in the world. I do not believe any of the teams came defeat them - they can only lose if they malfunction. It is great futbol to watch - they are surgical in attacking and suffocating on defense. They have not been scored on except by penalty kick !
I hope another team wins it because I love the challenges of underdogs, but it seems unlikely.
Go Iceland and Wales!!!!

Phill,
You know I'm on board !
I want Wales and Iceland to play in final for Championship!
I watch most every game, looking forward to the next match!!!
The goal by Robson-kanu reminded me of the Great Johan Cruyff !!
Amazing!!!
They will have their hands full against Portugal Wednesday - but hey - anything is possible - impossible is nothing.
They didn't get this far to just come this far !!

p.s. any team that has players named Joe Walsh and Jazz has a destiny, for sure!
