_ [E] _
_ [B] _ _ _ [N] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ I assume someone designed those for your custom?
Oh no, just spray painting.
Oh, you did that?
I did it all by myself.
_ _ _ Okay, that's cool. _
_ _ _ _ Could you do a pair for me?
Hey, I sure can.
Let's start where I know people want me to start.
Who's your favorite new [D#] kid?
No, I don't want to start.
_ [E] _ _ You know, I was listening to the CD today.
And Jesus Gonna Be Here.
The groove, [Em] man.
Where did that come from inside you?
It sounded like some Alabama gospel.
Yeah, it's just gospel song, you know.
Jesus Gonna Be Here is gonna be here soon.
[N] Yeah, how long have you been in the gospel?
Well, I sang in the church when I was a kid.
And I've always been attracted to gospel.
And I was a soprano when I was a boy.
You?
That all changed. _ _ _
But now my voice is a lot more manageable. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Your wife writes also, right?
Yes, she does.
We wrote a lot of the songs on the record together.
Yeah, it's a good record.
What was writing with Keith Richards like?
_ Well, you know, _ you always finish something.
You might finish the bottle.
You might not finish the song. _ _ _ _
_ _ He's great.
He's very mellow.
He's good with animals.
_ _ _ _ _ [F#] _
He can stand at the edge of [A] a cow pasture,
make all the [F#] cows in the whole pasture come to him just [A] by calling.
_ True. _
You have a habit of making instruments out of things that no one else has used.
What's on this CD that's not traditionally an instrument?
_ [F#] Well, there's farm machinery.
Just found farm machinery.
[G#] And we welded [G] it together in something called a [E] conundrum,
which is a metal cross with a – it looks kind of like a torture device,
but it sounds better than it looks.
_ And it's just _ a – it sounds like a jail door closing.
Yeah.
_ [A] I've heard that noise.
