First I just want to say what an honor it is to be part [C] of the first _ gathering of the Rock and [Eb] Roll Hall of Fame.
[Bb] I just want to tell [B] you what Buddy Holly meant to me.
I was 12 years old, I was working at a beach resort, 12 year old [N] kid's type of job.
That voice and guitar came up over the PA, we had a radio.
I went out and bought That'll Be the Day, started learning the words.
A few months later bought the album. _
That _ album set in course of musical history some strange events I think.
_ There was a group pictured on the cover.
There was a guy with a strat, wasn't that bad?
And three other guys, it was a group.
It was the first time you saw a group in rock and roll.
_ _ I'm going to have a group. _ _
Over in Liverpool, same thing was going on with four other guys.
They named their group The Beatles because Buddy Holly's group was called The Crickets.
_ _ _ _ 1963 _ _ _ _ actually, these four guys chose to end their great song I Want to Hold Your Hand with a little syncopation Buddy Holly used in the chorus after the solo.
All you guys that play rock know what I'm [C] talking about.
That'll be the day [N] when_
_ About _ 20 years later, kid was writing a song about how it feels to be back in the senior field.
He ended his song with the same riff, came from the same place.
I think my point is that _ we, all of us, each of us are people that are made up [G] of the people that we love and the people that we admire.
We [N] take those reflections and hopefully grow from those.
I think that's why we're here in all 10 cases today.

[N] Buddy.
Anyway, at this [C] point I would like to call his [B] wife, Maria Elena Holly. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
