Chords for Flying Colors - One Love Forever [Track By Track 7/9]

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _
_ _ [B] _ _ [E] Hi, I'm Steve Morris from Flying Colors [A#] and I'd like to talk a little bit about one of
the songs [A] from the new album, Second [D] Nature.
The first song I'd like to talk about _ [A#] is originally called Funner.
[N] We always have working [Gm] titles and _ I [G] have no idea where that title came from.
But [D] before they _ [F#] write it down [E] _ on the recording log of the rehearsal recording, _ somebody just
makes up a name for it.
So it [A#] was originally called Funner [E] and _ One Love Forever is the title of it, probably
on the album.
[D] _ _ So anyway, it started, _ like all our songs, _ it started with a little bit of an idea.
[C#] _ And it was this kind of, Casey and I like this folk _ [Em] Appalachian style, [F#] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ [B] _ _ _ [F#] kind of open,
really _ _ _ [N] _ _ _
_ [E] Americana style.
_ So we started with that and then _ _ _ when Neil [B] came in, he came in with this group.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ [D] _ Kind of like a _ [Bm] _
[G] former, kind of warming up.
[E] _ _
It's really great.
[Em] The mixture of those two [Bm]
things together.
_ In fact, one of my favorite influences is [C#] Aaron Copland. _ _
That _ _ _ [B] keeping sort of the root feel _ _ over the [E] forefoot. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F#] _ _ [B] _ _ _ [N] _ So, you know, this song starts with the classic Steve Morse, _ _ _ dirge, jig, Scotch Irish, _ Indian
folk _ thing that he does so well.
I love singing over that stuff.
I feel like it's my roots are Scotch Irish.
[C] And, you know, _ _ most of us came from [N] some tribe somewhere.
_ So I love that about this tune.
I love, _ _ I can always use more of that stuff.
And I created this kind of weird, _ _ _ almost Indian [G] melody _ _ _ _ to _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ this kind of Scotch Irish thing.
And it made me think about how _ tribally and melodically _ different people from all over
the world _ _ _ _ _ are kind of connected.
And so you've got that on a musical level and then you have that on [F] a _ _ lyrical level
of one love forever.
[Em] Just this idea of unity.
In [A#] fact, one of my favorite influences [G#] is Aaron Copland where he [F#] keeps the [E]
root _ _ _ _ [B] _ [D#] tonality
over the [E] forecourt.
Like when we [B] end a song, we go _
[E] _ back _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _ [Em]
to the root.
So [F#] here's the intro. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ [E] _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [B] _
_ _ [Am] _ _ [E] _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ [F#m] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G#] _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A#] Now the cases end with the vocals.
_ And then _ [N] what we did was actually change the feel quite a bit to go up into the chorus.
[D] _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ So [F#] there's quite a big _ _ feel change.
And this is one of the things that _ basically [G] you would never [F#] do _ in most pop rock culture.
But _ with Blind [Bm] Colors, we always do [B] stuff like that.
In [G#] every song, there's some kind of weird time change, key [B] change, or [E] _ _
tempo key.
_ Just feel. _
_ _ [F#] And we just like it that way.
[G] So anyway, it's got _ _ quite a big change before it.
It goes to the chorus.
In fact, it's kind of [D] instantaneous.
_ _ _ Anyway, I _ _ [C#] hope you listen and enjoy the song.
And [F#] I hope you_
_ _ Wow!
