[Db] _ [Bb] This is where [Ebm] I do everything musically.
This is here at my house in the basement.
I write here, I [F] record here, [Eb] I produce here, [F] I rehearse here.
I come in here to be inspired [Ebm] as a musician, as an artist.
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ [Abm] _ _ [Eb] I'm inspired.
_ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ These _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ [Eb] _
[Db] are [Bb] _ all Washburn [Eb] guitars. _
These are the guitars that I use not only on Striper albums, but I use on solo albums as well.
And this is the ISP [B] Theta Pro Michael [Db] Sweet signature model pedal.
[E] The amp, believe it or not, that I just used for this new album, Ten,
the only amp that I [Gb] used [Eb] is sitting right there.
_ _ This is called a Thrasher.
Sounds amazing.

_ _ _ Ten _ _ [Gb] _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ is [Gb] _ _ [Bb] _ _
my tenth [Eb] solo album.
The first song on the album is called Better Part of Me.
It's a [B] great opener.
[Abm] It's kind of like a sucker [Gb] punch, you know?
It feels like [Ab] you're kind of stepping in the ring and you're getting hit two times from one side
and then an uppercut from the other side.
It's like, whoa!
[Abm] And it's a little more old school.
[N] I grew up on Judas Priest.
I grew up on Iron Maiden.
_ Those are two of my favorite bands from that era.
So I wanted to really incorporate that on this album.
You know, man, it's just my style of [Db] mess.
