Thats a real bargain.
A guitar that will last a life time for half a days work, fantastic.
I`m sure you will enjoy it.

Re: Have I Posted This Before? (Chordie Song/Writer Of The Year) (9 replies, posted in Songwriting)
Hey Bill
i kinda like the idea.i even have a few of songs by u guys that i think
are worthy of recognition.
I do lots of songs that are pretty ordinary so i`d be happy to come last.
Not a problem.
I think the good songs should be recognised by us.I know that listening to
u good musicians gives me a buzz,It inspires me to get better.
U only have to look @ some countries where there is no competition
they end up a basket case.
Competition raises standards, personally, i might find it pushes me to something better.
bring it on i`m ready to vote!

Re: Does Paul Simon Have Another "Graceland" In Him? (21 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Does Paul simon have another Gracelands in him?
Great question.
I often wonder if the greatest writer, Paul Mccartney
has got a great song left in him?
I`ve spent a lot of time thinking about this,the only answer i`ve
come up with, is many of his great songs were about every day subjects.
I think he now lives a less than humble life(& good on him he`s earned it)
also he does everything himself with out arrangers & song writing partner to bounce off.
So no i don`t think he`s got another great song coming.
Don`t know if this applies to Paul simon.
look forward to your opinion.

STONED( think i would talk this over a couple of chords)
you no i`m kinda new to this music stuff
got an old guitar in the garage
had some spare time lately so thought i`d dig it out
Wanna be a rock star!
So read up on rock stars
Lots about picking up chicks
And plenty about drugs
even read a bit about music
sounds like fun
so i took my old 3 sting guitar
downtown to do some busking
it didn`t go too well
the music was rubbish
1 chord just didn`t impress
but on the up side
i did get stoned
can`t see why rock stars like this so much
when i get rid of the scratches and bruises
gonna go out busking again

Love is nothing (chords to come)
Well you get out there
on a sunny day
fool around
and start to play
but don`t get too involved
there ain`t no point
cause love is nothing
start off with a hit
cause you`re on grass
get too excited
it will get ya high
but what goes up must come down
don`t worry there ain`t no point
cause love is nothing
if ya in for the long haul
you`ll get better
maybe having a ball
but all us tennis players already know this
there ain`t no point
LOVE IS NOTHING
