Jam Along & Learn...
Okay, is there one song of yours that you're most proud of?
Could you play it and then maybe explain why that song?
Yeah, I like Palmyra a lot, just because I'm a sucker for slow songs.
And it doesn't seem like a lot of people are willing to take the time to listen to slow songs these days because it's a fast-paced world.
But yeah, I wrote the lyrics to Palmyra while I was cutting the grass in Palmyra, her [Eb] mom's yard.
And because it's simple, I had to keep a few lines so I could remember them all.
And just keep the repetition going in my head so I didn't lose it.
But yeah, I don't [Db] know.
Isn't that 3-4-2-2?
Yeah, just slow, [B] little bounce, 3-4-6-8.
And I like this song because it's [Abm] kind of a romantic song, but [Db] it's not like
It's so easy just to be like, oh, I think you're great and I love you.
That's easy to say, but [B] the way the words [Gb] go, it's
