Jim this one pulls at the heart strings you sure do know how to put together a song that tells a sad story well. The other Jim from Nashville vocal and backing perfect. Like your video also.

Re: SUGGESTIONS: JANUARY 2019 FEATURED SONG OF THE MONTH (19 replies, posted in Featured Song of the Month)
Since i haven't had a turn cuz life here's a small rendition after a hard time in my life. I have always just loved a man/woman with his/her voice and the guitar. Raw unplugged and give it your best. https://youtu.be/zb9h0FtNU-U
That is a good solo performance . As Arlo Gutherie said that has to be one of America's great songs known all over the world made famous by Elvis. A beautiful tribute to your daughter.

Thank you Jim
The worm and the apple in the video are now over 60 years old. Maree got that given to her as a school girl as part of a bank promotion trying to encourage kids to save. I am thankful that Phill took the time to help make this song with his exception voice, music and lyric writing talent.

Sophistication
[Gm] I don’t think Ill ever be considered...[Bb] sophisticated.

[Gm] There is pain involved in snobbery...[Bb] sophistication.
[F] Yeah your home in your concrete [D7] jungle.
With all your [Gm] fancy things.
Some of the best things in life are free.
[Bb] Oh you can't buy the things in nature.
[F] Things that are brought on [D7] by the sun.
[Gm] The colour of winter and the seasons.
[Eb] Oh yeah you think your [F] so sophisticated. [Gm]
[Eb] You only eat the [F] best things.... that are [D7] overrated.
And they'll kill you given time.
[Gm] You live your life in a fantacy...[Bb] sophistication.
[F] I tell you some of the [D7] best things in life are [Gm] free.
[Gm] Inside a rough exterior....[Bb] can beat a loving heart.
[F] There is a lot going [D7] on that you don’t [Gm] see.
[Eb] Oh yeah you think your [F] so... sophisticated. [Gm]
[Eb] You only eat the [F] best things.... that are [D7] overrated.
[D7] Believe me when I say to you.
[Gm] All the best things in life are free.
[Bb] Milk and honey and the olive trees.
[F] Birds and bees and the [D7] song of nature's all we need.

Topic: Ready To Roll (0 replies, posted in Songwriting)
Phill and I wrote this song and Robert Hall did the backing and sound engineering. Phill did the vocals.
This is the first take so Robert at a later date wants to make some slight adjustments to the backing. So the recording is not quiet up to what we want it to be . Phills vocals are brilliant on here Robert just wants to change the backing sound a bit .
