Thanks  for the indirect suggestion - after I read what you posted I realized the last verse was okay - but didn't really carry the theme as the first verse had.     So I changed the last stanza a bit - I like it better - a little more catchy and in the same moments of the first verse I think-  I hope you like it.

That's what is so great about chordie - man I love this site !

and see...... I was wrong smile

If one of you guys that can really play and sing as opposed to my abilities, want to cover this - I'd love to hear a version smile

That's what I usually hope for, one of the good players and singers here to do just that. There are many talented people here on Chordie for sure. 
Thanks for the listen smile

Very nice, Man !

I dig the rhythm and your voice suits the "blues-ish" nature of the lyrics very well.

Thanks for sharing!  Well done.

I also like the Lone Star State icon for your song's  image on soundcloud.  Went through North Texas a couple weeks ago --- pheww - the air smells up by Hereford and Amarillo.     That's a lot of beef in that area.... I couldn't help but think that  someone must've written a song about that too.

Thanks again,
Jim

I had this line in my head -  "This time I may be wrong"   played around with the cowboy chords - and this is what I came up with.
Hope you like it.

I re-wrote this a bit and changed the chords some.  I think it plays a lot easier and makes a little sense.
Happy New Year to all my friends on Chordie.  May the new year keep you safe, healthy, and full of happiness and love.

I guess I would qualify as a fence sitter. smile 

I agree with both TF and Uncle Joe  - There is a boatload of advances that have come as a result of the space program - including many medical breakthroughs-  our lives have been considerably advanced no doubt.  But I also agree with TF - there is so much waste $  NASA spent $ 1million on menu development for manned mars mission - not to happen for many years
  U.S. gov't pays some researcher $ 75,000 to find out why white grapes have smaller seeds than purple grapes ? 700,000 on soccer field for Guantanamo prisoners  $100million in subsidies to the republican and democrat parties for their conventions every  4 years 

My opinion ....fund good programs - cut the  bullshit - help people with what you save.


Just my thought

Ok - here is the song about Christmas dinner

It's funny ,  but then it's not.

Hope you like it.

If someone that could actually could sing and play it  well, I think it would be pretty cute.

Thanks for listening !
