Start Jamming...
[F] Welcome to Balkany TV, it's Sunday the 20th of December and joining me on the balcony
is John from Deertick.
Hi.
How are you John?
I'm okay.
You're okay?
How did the tour go?
Just to finish the tour of Ireland last week.
Oh it was great.
[N] Yeah?
Yeah.
What are you going to play for us?
I'm going to play Smith Hill off of Flag Day there.
There you go.
You ready?
I think so.
[A]
[D] Elbows [G] on the windowsill, [D] my head against [A] the pane.
[Bm] Seen so [G] many times, I'm not sure why.
So many grow and die and [D] forget most of their [A] names.
[G] [D] Fire that [G] arrow to the great big [D] sky and hope it'll never come [A] down.
[G] [Bm] Unless [G] you're coming with it, Pa.
Cause [D] it was better with [A] you around.
[Bm]
[G] [D]
[Bm]
[G] [D]
[G] [A] [D] I could drink myself [G] to death tonight.
[D] Or stand and give a [A] talk.
[Bm] But those who [G] made it out alive, [D] well it's you I'll miss [A] the most.
[D] But tonight I'll [G] see my sweetheart.
[D] I got a $50 [A] bill.
[Bm] But somewhere [G] in her weak heart, [D] she knows I [A] never will.
[Bm]
For love, [G] it's [D] hard to hide.
And [Bm] true [G] love, it's [D] hard to find.
Although [Bm]
I, [G] I was [D] once beside her.
Well [Bm] I've [G] fallen far [D] behind.
[A] [D] From the tiny [G] room up on Smith Hill, [D] it's easy to [A] disappear.
[Bm] It's easy to run [G] off hiding.
[D] Then say I don't want [A] you here.
[D] I can't [G] stand to face the fact [D] to only leave [A] you hurt.
[Bm] I don't care much for [G] what you have to say.
[D] But I'd like to know what [A] you heard.
[Em] [Bm] For love,
[G] it's [D] hard to hide.
And [Bm] true love, [G] it's [D] hard to find.
Although [Bm]
[Gb] I, [G] I was [D] once beside her.
Well [Bm] I've [G] fallen far [D] behind.
[G] And it's a long way [D] for you.
[G]
It could tread [D] on me any [C] morning.
[G] When you cry, [A] you'll see.
[G] [D] [G] That
[D] [G] [A]
[Bm] [G]
[D] [A]
[D] [N]
was John from Deertych and joining him on the balcony now with us is the rest of Deertych, minus the drummer, who is apparently ill.
Yeah, Dennis is the sickest out of them.
Actually, I don't know if the camera can go because he's actually in that van over there.
And he's [Abm] very sick.
What's wrong with him?
[N] He might have swine flu.
You heard it here first.
Does that mean I travelled in the van, does that mean we could all have swine flu?
Yeah, you could.
Before we all die, let's tell the other people of Ireland who didn't catch you on the tour, which was a week ago, what you're about and what you're up to now.
So you finished the tour in Ireland, and how was that?
Great.
It's a beautiful country.
[Ab] Deertych think Ireland's a beautiful [N] country, and would you like to live here?
I would.
I wouldn't mind.
This is probably the only city I've been to other than one in the United States that I would like to live.
Really, Steve, our producer, hates Ireland.
Really?
Does.
You can't answer that, Tom.
Well, you do.
So just tell us about the album.
Well, [Bm] [Dm] it was recorded a while [N] ago.
When?
September of 2008.
2008.
[E] Yeah.
[Db]
[F] And you were touring the UK [A] and Ireland just to come out over the last couple of weeks, right?
Yeah, [C] it just came out [N] over here.
I don't care for that record that much.
[Abm] That's not the [Bm] best PR I have to say.
He doesn't [F] care for it, [Eb] but you are going to love [G] it.
I like the songs on it.
Right.
[N] But, yeah.
So what's for the new year?
What's the plan for the band for the new year?
We're going to have a couple of new releases come out next year.
Hoping something you like.
Yeah.
I'm going to like these next year.
And if the drummer's not dead, he'll be drumming on them.
And we have the EP.
Yeah, [Gb] we had an EP that just came out.
iTunes.
Only on iTunes.
[N] Only on iTunes.
Yeah.
Great stuff.
Okay, well that kind of concludes it.
