There once was a man from Wales
who played great music without fail
people came from afar
to hear him play that guitar
He sure knows those riffs and scales.

Mojo and I thought exactly the same - great rendition enhanced by the accent.
I also caught the date night line - way to go !!
congrats on a nice performance of a soulful message.
Jim
Thanks Adrian
Welcome to the Chordie forum !
Peatle thanks for the kind words.
Phill- I will never know that feeling - I can only use my imagination and listen to what you and others tell me.
I am sure you have put many hours in to get where you are musically.
Mojo SRV is one of my faves as well - Jimi is just - well Jimi !
They are two of the standards by which we measure for sure.
Thanks fellas for taking a look.
I am not sure about the chords or phrasing - but the picture of playing a guitar that great was in my head and I decided to put on paper.
Cheers to all
Jim
I listened to some fantastic guitarists through the weekend and it left me amazed, speechless, jealous and appreciative. So I go t thinking of what it must be like to be so good with a guitar- that it becomes a part of you . This song is a tribute to all that can make their guitar part of their soul. It must feel awesome.
Mick Jagger singing country - pretty funny !!
Mojo - another superb one! You sound so much like Guy Clark on this one. I kept waiting for a little chorus in there somewhere. I bet this stuff happens all the time. I still can't believe that with your style, voice and playing abilities that you aren't signed to a contract by some recording company ! You are special Mojo ! Jim
nice one EB !
Many scenarios applicable - imagination food for everyone!

" Black and White will make you cry'
Never truer words spoken
in education it sums up why we are :
Every kid gets a trophy
No child can fail
etc...
people are afraid to tell the truth if it hurts
the twisted thinking is that somehow it is helping them, but in my humble opinion - it cripples them.
great line
Jim
Peatle
I can tell you that as a long time teacher - these kids are coming out of school with that exact mentality.
Always " Me First - where is my trophy - I want the money and damn the character !"
Good stuff Peatle . I can't wait to see what you post on the next inclement weather day !!
Jim
Jeff
I quite agree with all the above
Pete and Phill are showing the love
Brian is liking the scheme thereof
and your message fits just like a glove
the world in ways has become degenerate
but your song seems the best predicate !
Thought it was genius work my friend - made me think a lot !
Well done!
Jim
Awesome Graham!!!
Hope you find time
I would love to hear how a crowd reacted to it
If you ever do play it out I. Public
Thanks for the kind words
Jim
I would love to hear it Beamer !
EB
Classic
I immediately thought of several scenarios there.
That has the making of a really good song !
I was playing around with it - I hope you don't mind.
This my thoughts in terms of song
Purple
[C]In a cafe we sat
having a coffee and a [G]chat
[C]talking `bout music and art
as the background soft music [G]played
[C]i told her to close your eyes
and then i closed [G]mine
[C]I asked her to tell me the colours
she imagined in her [G]mind
she said [D] I see red and [C}blue
while I was seeing [G] purple
Great concept her Brian - well done.
Jim
ps - every song I've ever written had to have rhyme - this one because of the color scheme
- LOL " Purple" !!! at first it felt funny - but I actually like this - it gives such a twist when it doesn't rhyme.
Thanks for opening that door for me !
Phill and Peatle
Music was great ! Video was really cool - loved the special effects ! I even got the Papa Whiskey ( Phill Williams) !
Well done chaps ! you are an excellent team
Cheers - Jim
Thanks Graham
I think a lot of people have been in that spot where they mad a choice and then regretted it.
I went out of my comfort zone on this - it's kinda punkish
in my head.
probably needs some refinement
Zurf
Good to hear from you!!
Jim
Thanks guys
I wrote it actually as a tribute and a way of wishing that I could have spent more time with my bothers in our older years - I had two pass away in the past two years and my oldest brother has alzheimers to the point where he does not know me anymore. I was looking at old family photos and the idea of this song just kind of
emerged in to my thinking. Time just goes by so fast , we get caught up with daily happenings and things that seem so important at the time - and then suddenly something happens - and you wonder why you didn't spend more time with them. I guess it was just a release verse for me.
Thanks for the kind words. I hope you all take the time to spend with your families- it really is irreplaceable.
Cheers
JIm
Brian
Same here as what Phill said.
Grandkids are so cool !!! Nice performance and song.
Jim
Mojo
I quite agree with Peatle, it's your unique style man !
I listened a couple more times today - really top notch performance.
Jim
to be honest- after just listening to Mojo's new post " Twisting in the wind" this pales - but I will post anyways.
I will let you guess as to what it is about if you wish.
Mojo
In my humble opinion - this could be a top 10 country song.
i think your best song.
Fantastic !!
Can you post the lyrics and chords here ?
you've got some talent my friend.
Wow - Just Wow !!
Jim
Nice one Peatle.
Giving people to have a voice is crucial. Even by voting and not getting your candidate to win still exercises a fundamental human right.
Like the perspective Peatle !
Jim
Phill
That left me speechless.
I cannot imagine the anguish of the moment.
So glad you found Ann - she ,ust be amazing to get you past something lake that.
