Been a while since I posted any thing new but this is a demo of a song i wrote a few days ago
Its all me and the trio pedal recorded direct into the boss looper and then to a hand held zoom recorder . All comments welcome as ever . The vocals need enhancing and it needs more heckling in the later chorus
Enjoy or not ?

Get down Grand Pa an original song by Graham Windle
D G
When I was a young man ,I lived out on the range
D A
Underneath the sky and stars .In sunshine and in the rain
D G
Now that I’ve got older ,Its sometimes pretty hard
D A D
I hear the children call me ,as they play out in the yard.
D G
Get down off the gas stove Grandpa
D A
The neighbours think you’re strange
D G
Get down off the gas stove Grandpa
D A D
You’re too old to ride the range
D G
At the age of 26 .I met their sweet Grandma
D A
Pretty as a picture ,just like a movie star
D G
Said she’d always love me ,Stay with me for all time
D A D
She calls these words out to me as she hangs washing on the line
D G
Get down off the gas stove Grandpa
D A
The neighbours think you’re strange
D G
Get down off the gas stove Grandpa
D A D
You’re too old to ride the range
D G
My life has been a pleasure ,I’ve had a lot of fun
D A
Theres a lot of other stuff, that I could have done
D G
As I look around me , at the high lights of my life
D A D
Best of all ,was the day ,I met up with my wife.
D A D
You’re too old to ride the range
D G
Get down off the gas stove Grandpa
D A
The neighbours think you’re strange
D G
Get down off the gas stove Grandpa
D A D
You’re too old to ride the range

Cheers Brian I'll probably give it a go at the Sound bar this week acoustically
I couldn't help it....I laughed out loud, chairperson of the board gave me a funny look so I read her the words! I love the double meaning of"the range" can I hear banjo in there? Excellent.
Hi Grah, I used to be in a duo playing bass my mate on the guitar used to put a handkerchief through the strings for the banjo sounds for the song "The Show Must Go On". It didn't work obviously...ah the good old days
Phill ,palm muted and plectrum and second finger picking
Grah, those guitar riffs are pure magic. Clever lyrics also.
Cheers Peter I hope to do the acoustic version at the Sound Bar tonight .
