Start Jamming...
[Bm]
[B]
We pretty much do our own thing.
Nobody's passing around [G] music or anything like that.
No, it's, [Eb] I mean, when it comes to vocals and stuff [B] like that, we do a lot of more collaborating
and here's an idea for a harmony or something like that.
Or I think your voice would be rad on this [E] part, [A] that general.
[Ebm] Yeah, that's when we start kind of getting up in each [B] other's shit more.
But otherwise, when we're writing instruments and arrangement, it's all kind of whatever
you feel like doing and you just sort of build off of each other, which I think is [Bm] probably
how most bands write.
[B] I feel like that's how most write.
[Gb] It [Bb] seems like the most [Em] obvious way to me.
I don't know.
Sometimes in a given song, somebody will write lyrics or vocals for a specific part [E] and somebody
else will come up with lyrics for another [Eb] part and they'll write their own [Bb] lyrics.
And then it's just kind of like, [Ebm] huh, that's [E] how that ended up.
And then you read it through the whole thing.
And probably [B] unrelated to each other.
[E] Yeah.
Like still aside for one.
Yeah.
The [Bbm] title track in the new record is all three of us sang different sections of the song
and we all wrote different lyrics [Bb] without any [Ebm]
collaboration.
So it's just kind [Eb] of
I [E] think they go together really well. Yeah.
I feel like we all write pretty personal lyrics too.
[Ebm] So it's kind [E] of, you know, not really possible [Bbm] to collaborate [F] on that level.
[E] You know what I mean?
Because you're writing some shit from personal [B] experience or whatever you're thinking about,
whatever you're [Eb] tripping out on about life at that moment, you know?
And so, I don't know.
I [G] mean, sometimes, you know, I can think of times where I've [Ebm] written some lyrics for a
song that we're both singing [Bb] on and I show them to him so he can, before, you know, and
he [Eb] can kind of have that in his mind while [Em] he's writing his lyrics.
But I [N] didn't get the impression, I don't get the impression that you then write about the
experience that I was writing about.
Yeah, when I was 13 too, I did the same.
[B] Jeff Leppard in the year.
He wasn't into Joan Jenner [D] at all.
Yeah.
[Eb] I'm [E] feeling
Oh, yeah.
[F]
