I will tell you how this song was born, [C] however.
[G] When I was first learning how to play guitar and groove and [C] how to make changes with my fingers and soul and spirit,
[E] [Bb] we had a group of guys and girls that would sit [E] around in Athens, Ohio, where I went to school.
I went to college there, [F] art school of [Gb] all things.
We'd sit around and [B] I remember playing a G chord for the entire night,
oriental rug with maybe a [F] hookah in the middle and just play G.
of G and [Gb] different grooves and just learning about how to navigate through time signatures and just crazy jams.
the guys in our jam group had this song that he [A] had partially written and I took [Ab] it and added my verse and [G] bridge.
