Gentle On My Mind Part Two - The Song

Companion video to discussion of meeting John Hartford where I perform an original arrangement of Gentle On My Mind. Enjoy. Part One is titled: Introduction

Gentle On My Mind Introduction Part I

A brief discussion on how I met John Hartford and his music prior to playing Gentle on My Mind. The live performance is in a follow up video titled Gentle on My Mind Part II 

Factory Girl - Solo Acoustic

Keef and Mick's 1968 Classic Factory Girl. Love the lyrics on this one so fun to sing. Enjoy my arrangement as I was unable to book Dave Mason in to play mandolin :)

Christmas Time is Here Instrumental

My quest to become accomplished continues. Like some slow locomotive moving down the track the light at the end of the tunnel keeps moving farther back. Such is the guitar and trying to learn how to play. Hope you enjoy.

New Song Alert: Blue Tree

Lyrics:
___________________________________ 

Blue Tree By My Front Door
Spreading the Blues All Around

Blue Tree
Maybe Some Common Ground 

A Window of Change
A Window of Love
All Around 

Rain Comes Pouring Down

Blue Tree Makes a Solemn Sound 

I Know How Hurt You Are

I Know How Hurt You Are 

 

Footsteps All Alone

There Should Be Four

There’s Only Two

 

 Heaven in My Head Makes Me Think of You

Under The Blue Tree We Can See Clear Through 

The Dreams of Me and the Dreams of You 

 

A Window of Change

A Window of Love

All Around

Swamp: A Little Delta Blues Picking

 

Cider Blues

A little finger style acoustic blues number I put together - enjoy!

Cider Blues         

 
Call me late

Call me early in the morning

Call me late

Call me early in the morning
Give me cider

Give it to me hot and warm

 

Call me late

Call me early in the morn

Call me late

Call me early in the morning

Give me something nice and warm

 

Got the cider blues

Taste it when I can

Got the cider blues

Taste it when I can

Dip the ladle way down low in the pan

 

Wake me in the evening

Wake me in the morn

Wake me in the evening

Wake me in the morn

Take me to the shed

Keeps the cider nice and warm

Repeat chorus

 

Saw you bending

Way down low

Saw you bending

Way down low

Pot of cider

Simmering nice and slow

 

Finish with chorus

After The Blues

Solo Finger Style on the Quiet Side - Enjoy

Grace The Sky - New Song Alert

 

Grace The Sky                                                                   

It’s such a long, long way

To get to where you want to stay

You can never forget how to play

Climb a tree or sing your life away

 

And ohhh how it feels

The wind on the pines

The calm of your eyes

How we grace the sky

 

It was nice to see you today

You still have all your ways

The ones I fell in love with before

The ones that reach down to the core

And ohhh how it feels

The wind on the pines

The calm of your eyes

How we grace the sky

 

How we spin round and round

Until we hit the ground

And then you go your way

With just a smile for todayyyy

(Instrumental break)

 

Dancing to the end

On our way to see our friends

Sailing in the clouds

Spinning round and round

Sailing in the clouds

Spinning round and round

On our way to see our friends

Dancing to the end
