[C#m] [E]
[C#]
[F#] [A#]
[D] [F#m] If I was a lyricist, I would [A] have thought of some pick-a-thon verse.
But I'm not trying to speak of my own experience or anything [C] like that, you know.
[F#] [C#]
[G]
That was a blast.
Oh, man.
And that's the [A] biggest squared [Em]-ance I've ever played.
[F]
[F#m] Unbelievable.
[F] Really great.
[G]
[Gm] Oh, easy.
[G] It's kind [F#] of hard to count because they won't stay [C] still, you know.
[Dm] Honestly, I don't know what any of these people [G] do.
I don't know.
I don't know.
[C]
[A] I don't know.
I don't know.
[C]
[G] Uh,
[N]
yeah.
Yeah.
Well, New York's always kind of been a bastion of folk music.
And in the 60s and 70s, it was kind of part of the center of the folk revival.
And we had a lot of southern [F#] artists that were coming [A] through, you know,
on their way to Newport Folk Festival [Am] and wherever.
[C] We had, you know, I got to go to [G#] the downtown [A] McBurney YMCA in Manhattan
and see Bill Monroe and the Bluegrass Boys [F] and, you know, Curly Ray Kline.
And [D] mostly I liked [C] bluegrass there in the beginning.
I mean, [D] I don't know what happened, [Cm] but I still like [D] it.
Don't get me wrong.
But anyway, there was a lot of that kind of music, a lot of blues too.
And Doc Watson was a hero, you know.
[N] These are all, you heard them on, [D] talking about radio while we were on that subject.
You know, I've always been kind of a radio freak,
especially community-based, listener-supported radio
because that's where you kind of hear the truth, you know, the truth as [E] it exists at home.
And we had WBAI in New York, which still [G] exists as [D] a community-based station.
It's owned by Pacifica now, but back in those days it was not owned by anybody.
And people could play what they wanted to play and do what they wanted to do,
and it was pretty great.
So I got a lot of my music from there.
[E] [N]
That's fantastic.
Fantastic.
I'm a city guy, and I've always managed to get around places,
live in places with radio stations such as KBOO, you know.
In D.C. we have [B] WPFW, which is a similar kind of place.
And when I lived in [F] Atlanta, they had WRFG, Radio Free Georgia.
And, you know, it's [E] thank you for what you all do.
It's great.
