_ _ _ I'm a fanboy and a video artist. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ [E] How many songs have you written?
_ [N] _ _
How many?
Yes, please.
There's 220 I'm working on.
Thank you.
So far?
_ Well, it's always a couple floating around. _ _ _
[Db] I don't know, there's so much I'm [Ab] stranded.
[Bm] There's so much, you know. _
_ Songwriting is a very isolating [N] sort of enterprise.
You've got to get yourself away from everybody.
_ So anyway, here's [Db] one that I wrote a long time ago.
I was babysitting my oldest boy.
I was then [Ab] [N] a year and a half old.
He didn't run with me, and he's now 54.
_ I _ _ wrote [Db] this song in my [Bb] crib.
[Ab] I took him back to school and went [Dbm] to sing my notation [Gb] course in LA.
I left town to [Abm] ride a [Gb] train.
[G] _ _ _
_ [N] _ _ _ I [Ab] was in the [F] business.
_ [Db] The folk revival of [Abm] all.
[Bb] _
I wrote this one in Peter, Paul, and Mary.
[N] It's a wonderful story.
The Frenchman, Don Clark, Elvis himself.
[Ab] Elvis Presley. _
[F] I'll just play it right now. _ _ _ _

The M.I.
Paul [F] Constable said, _ _ I don't know [Bb] where _ _ _ _
[C] _ the [F] river runs [Bb] to. _
[F] _ And you know [C] where the _ _ east would [Bb] go.
[F] _ _ [Bb] _ _
[F] _ I'm on the way [C] of the night. _
It takes [Bb] seven or seven to [F] save you.
_ [Bb] _ _
[F] And I'm stuck in [Bb] the middle of the night. _ _
_ With the faith that [F] never broke. _ _
_ I'm on the way of the [Bb] night. _ _ _
[C] _ And I'm on the way [F] of the night. _ _
_ And there she [C] goes away. _ _
_ [Bb] She'll be gone [F] by _ [Bb] _ _
[C] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [F] _ _ [Bb] _ _
[F] _ _ the [C] ancient storm. _ _
_ [Bb] She looks down on me.
[F] _ _ _ _
_ She's a wind [Bb] whisperer. _ _ _
_ _ _ [F] She'll fly. _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ She'll _ _ fly.
She'll fly over [C] my _ home.
_ [Bb] In about three [F] hours time.
[Bb] _ _
[C] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [F] _ _ [Bb] _ _
[F] _ _ [C] She's almost gone to die. _ _ _
_ [Bb] It's a wonderful [F] journey. _ _ _
And I'm stuck [Bb] here on the river. _ _
_ Scored and drunk beside [F] her. _ _ _
_ Can't jump the jet [Bb] lag. _ _ _
[C] I can't get a break [F] today. _ _
So I'll just be on [C] the way. _ _
_ [Bb] In the early [F] morning.
_ [Bb] _ _
[F] _ _ Can't jump the [Bb] jet lag. _ _
[C] _ I can't get a [F] break today. _
_ So I'll just be [C] on the way. _
_ [Bb] In the early [F] morning.
