Jackson Brown has a strong [A] collar.
Woo!
[E] Because I gave it to him.
Laughter
Because he gave me a gibson a while [A] back.
[E] Wanted to turn [D] more.
Yeah, they [B]
said they wanted to make me a,
because they knew I was a big Martin fan,
and indeed [Bb] I am.
I always dreamed of having one,
and finally, in fact, my friend Joanne,
that I went [Eb] to junior [N] high and high school with,
is here tonight.
Joanne and I dreamed of having Martins,
and did you get yours first?
Yes.
Laughter
Where did you get yours?
But I got mine through the newspaper.
What year is yours?
[Bb]
[E] [A] 72.
[E] Mine's a D28, 1971,
but I bought it in [A] 1975.
[Gbm] Anyway, this is like,
[E] what did we play before that?
Yamalas, right?
Yeah.
Yeah, they sucked.
[A] Laughter
They were really hard to play.
[D] [A]
And we would go,
cute little high [B] school students that we were,
we'd go into the music shop that was [Gb] run by the,
oh wow, what to [A] describe them, Joanne.
[Eb] Huh?
He was a derelict.
They were just the most lecherous, disgusting [D] guys.
[A] [E] Huh?
[A]
[Abm] But [E] we'd go in and wear, you know,
[Bm] pop pants, so we could play those Martin guitars.
[D] Laughter
[A]
And [Bb] they didn't [B] mind.
They let [A] us play those guitars.
[D] [Bm] [D] So anyway, Martin said,
years [A] ago they said,
we'll make a Shawn Colvin signature model
if you'll tell us the specs.
So I said, well,
[D] [A] I want the [E] neck to be something I can get my hand around,
and I want it to sort of ring like a D18,
but I sort of want it [Ebm] to have a little bottom like a D35.
Can you do that?
Yeah.
[D] And they did,
[B] and they gave us a piece back.
That's all I told them was do [N] that.
And I'm really mad now because,
see, and then they echoed the three pieces on the headstock.
[B] That was their idea.
I had nothing to do with [D] it.
And [E] then I looked at the book of other people
that [Ebm] had [Bb] their signature models sent.
Why [A] I didn't put like Shawn [E] Colvin all sprayed [N] over the neck.
I was like, keep it [D] spare.
Yeah, in fact, [Eb] there's no fret marks on the [A] neck at all.
I'm like, you can keep it sent.
What an idiot.
[Dm] I regret [D] it now.
There's 120 of them made.
They should have my name just [E] like in bright [A] gold.
[D] [A] [D]
[G]
