[G#] [A] Being the son of Johnny Cash and June [D] Carter, I traveled the world with them.
I do not remember a time [A] that I did [E] not go to the United Kingdom.
[D] We toured, we traveled, and my father had a great [A] response from [D] the people in the United
Kingdom, all over [G] the continent of Europe.
But [D] always, his heart was very close [A] to the people here.
I [D] walk the line.
[A]
I believe that this album with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra will open up a new door.
These are [E] songs that work [A] for these arrangements, [F#m] that work [E] with the symphony and with my father's work.
[A] That's what I hope that [E] people find in this album, [D] just as so many people do when they
discover [A] my father's music, unexpected, hopeful, [E] exciting, something different.
[A] And you never really knew what Johnny [C#m] Cash was capable [E] of.
If you thought you understood him, he would prove you wrong and he would surprise you once again.
[Em] [Bm] Johnny Cash has [A] a different approach to his music [F#m] and the way he [B] performs.
He's more of a [D#] poet, so we're [E] taking more notice of [A] the lyrics and [E] the emotion [A] that
comes from his presentation.
It's going to be [D] a very, very exciting album, very [A] emotionally, very different to anything
else we've ever done.
[D] Johnny Cash is an incredible [A] storyteller.
As Don says, he's a [B] poet.
And [E] you paint in [A] very different colors.
There's [D] no sort of primary [A] block coloring on a Johnny Cash record.
It's all [D]
[A] beautiful hues of pastel colors where you're lighting the storytelling.
Someone may [D] question, is [A] it the right thing to do to [D] bring my father's music to the [A] world
of orchestra, to the world of symphony, to add accompaniment to his [D] voices?
My father always took [A] chances, you know, and [D] he was always open-minded.
[A] And he wasn't afraid [B] to do what was unexpected.
[E] So, it is [A] within that same realm [D] of thinking that we carefully [A] work on these masters and
that we [D] hope to add the [A] right backdrop to the [D] masterpiece which is already [A] in place,
which is my father's voice.
[D] Flesh and blood meets [A] flesh and [D] blood, and you're the one I [A] need.
I do believe that he would be very proud of it, and he would likewise be very [D] honored
that the role [A] of Philharmonic Orchestra [F#m] became [B] the setting, [A] if you will, [E] the backdrop [C#m] for his work.
