D'Angelo & Eric Clapton - I've Been Trying [Live] (1999) chords
Start Jamming...
So people get ready to induct a superfly musical giant a spiritual leader and a sole survivor
the one and only Curtis Mayfield
I'm truly honored this year to have been inaugurated along with Paul McCartney
For the second time into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
That's a guess right there
I am so pleased to share this induction with [G] such a great as a Billy Joe Dale Shannon
Dusty Springfield
pops and the staple singers Charles Brown and Bob Wills I
Am also thankful for Bruce Springsteen
Puff Daddy D'Angelo and Eric Clapton for always being there during my time of need
My greatest admiration goes to George Martin for his productive work with so many artists
Not to mention the Beatles and so many others I
[Dm] Am so sorry that my health prohibits me from attending
Tonight's Awards, but break a leg anyway.
I am there with you in spirit
I [N] wish to thank my friend of 30 years Marvin Hyman
Warner Brothers
my wife and my
children
I've been support.
Thank you
