I was thinking about how hard it must have been for the parents of that 8 year old that was killed at Manchester.
I cannort fathom the pain and anguish of losing a child as such ( or any other way per se). So this song came out. Sorry it's sad, but it was just how I was feeling. Jim

RIP Greg Allman
So sad
I am going to see if I can get through Sunday Morning Coming Down - I like that song a lot
Unlike Zurf and BGD - I never worry about tricky timing bc I have enough trouble just getting the chords close to being right. 
I wouldn't even know what tricky timing looks or sounds like !
enjoy the weekend all Happy Memorial Day (Monday) to all in the states, (my son in law just deployed so it's been a rough couple days for my family)
thanks Badeye ! Appreciate the love from the blues after A TOUGH DAY
KEEP EM COMING
Zurf
Sounds very nice.
Jim
I was driving in my car yesterday and Kris Kristoferson sang this song....it was awesome.
If I had any singing ability I would give it a go.
can't wait to hear some chordie folks knocking it out!

Bill,
I was just thinking of you today- I said hmmmm Bill hasn't been on here and leaving great critiques!
AS far as the colonoscopy - I am 64 and have avoided it totally.
I do not have any desire to have one
I know it's coming - but hey - I ain't in no hurry !
I can't offer you any advice- but I will say - Poor Dondra !!
JIm
FLAWLESS guitar playing ! Beautiful performance, so soothing and relaxing to listen to.
Thanks for sharing.

pretty funny
bushy
glad you are back in the swing of things.
check out the song I posted as a result of this thread over in songwriting called Seven Times
I'm a country music fan as well
Jim
ok ... I read this post the other day that Phill put out......
Re: G'day to all.
Hi Bushy, from one old fogey to another my gigging days are rapidly coming to an end too. It's funny how when you start out you think you'll go on forever but as friends diminish and your idols get to look old and wrinkly, your fingers ache and you can't straighten up after bending and standing up singing and playing guitar for 2 hours really hurts, you realise it's time to hang up the Stetson and lose the southern twang. I'm not looking forward to that day but i know it's not far off. So let's grow old disgracefully....
got me thinking about how many times I thought about quitting what I love to do.....
I put the two together and said to my self - bulls*** - Phill, Graham, Russell, Beamer, Mojo, BGD, Zurf, TF, Bill, and all the rest - ain't never quitting as long as its physically possible for them to continue.
Some how this song came out of my head from that... hope you like it.
[SONG]
{t: Seven Times}
intro
[G] [C] [D] [G]
Verse 1
[G] down at the corner bar, [C] playing [D]pool
[G]Hanging with my friends , an’[C] acting[D] cool
When this [G]beautiful girl just[C] happened [D]by
a [C]little piece heaven that [D]caught my [G]eye
[G]guess it only took a [C]little [D]while
[G]she looked my way and [C] flashed her [D]smile
[G]I was going over to [C]ask her [D]name,
when [C]she kissed her boyfriend, oh, [D] what a [G]shame
Chorus
[C]It doesn’t always work out, like I planned
Just[G] living my life the best I can
[C]Work and sleep are gonna have to wait
Cuz there’s [D]always something I can celebrate
[C] keep on rocking in this crazy town
can’t [G]see no reason to slow it down
[C]I'm still the master of my own fate
if I[D] fall down seven times – I’ll [C] get up [G]eight
Verse 2
[G] seems I’m always trying to [C]beat the [D] odds
[G] it’s always hard for me to [C]keep a [D]job
[G]So what is it I’m always [C]dreaming [D]of
[C]Trying something new or [D] falling in [G]love
[G] there ain’t nothing I’m a[C]fraid to [D]try
I [G] wanna lean against the[C]bluest [D]sky
I’m [G] not one of those that likes [C]sitting [D] still,
Probably [C] ought to stop, but I[D] never [G]will
Chorus
[C]It doesn’t always work out, like I planned
Just[G] living my life the best I can
[C]Work and sleep are gonna have to wait
Cuz there’s [D]always something I can celebrate
[C] keep on rocking in this crazy town
can’t [G]see no reason to slow it down
[C]I'm still the master of my own fate
if I[D] fall down seven times – I’ll [C]get up [G]eight
if I[D] fall down seven times – I’ll [C] get up [G]eight
if I[D] fall down seven times – I’ll [C] get up [G]eight

I'm Gonna Live Forever
by Billy Joe Shaver
This is good stuff

Great insight - includes Dylan and lots more.
Johnny Cash was so complex

here is chords to
Talk it over

I believe that you left out an important component........ physical ability..... some people have the coordination, mental capacity, and physical attributes that are special.
ironically, I was just thinking about this last night.... what sets the greatest of all time apart from the others ?.......
For singers - I believe it's that special voice.... there are a million great singers ( which I'm certainly not one of! ).... but there's only one Pavarotti, Elvis, Johnny Cash, Barbara Streisand, Frank Sinatra, Rod Stewart, Freddy Mercury, Bob Marley, Bob Dylan, Roy Orbison, John Lennon. Ray Charles and Aretha Franklin. ( And I know there are more!)
These are the voices that you don't need to look on the screen to see who's singing...instant recognition because of their unique sound.
The same goes for guitarists....... there are loads of great guitarists, but the ones that had the ability to make that guitar sing in a special and unique way, they are the ones that stand apart from the others.
Very similar to greatest Athletes of all time - same criteria.
I also believe that emotion/ personality / charisma comes into play - while I was very, very impressed with this young lady's performance - I thought it was emotionally deprived. I love the musicians that exhibit passion and excitement for that the song they are playing or singing, and show that it really means something to them. Hers came off as a musician that practiced and practiced, nailed the mechanics beautifully... but lacked the heart and soul of the music. Just my opinion.
Thanks for the thought provoking thread - I'm sure it will get some responses.
Jim
TF
that is astounding.
me thinks you underestimate the # of hours she put in.
It was beautifully FLAWLESS !
Thanks for sharing
Jim
Mojo - This is great ! A masterpiece in fact. Lyrics are top notch... playing and singing is spot on !
Did you ever put the lyrics and chords on here ?
Superb song
Jim
Bill
Of course I'll be in on this.
Let me know what you got and where you want to go.
I'll give it my best shot.
Jim
Charlie Pride - Excellent performer.
Thanks for the music this am Badeye - enjoy your day off !
I think I must be immune to those ads - I only see the great stuff that my fellow Chordians post. Although in reality they are there, I rarely even pay any attention to them. They can put as many as they want on here and get all sorts of funds for chordie as long as we get the opportunity to do what we do at no cost. This place is fantastic - made that way by the wonderful people participating on this site, not by the ads.
