[G] [D] So the new record is called Global Griot
[G] [D] Global Griot that means
[G] Like a troubadour who [Dm] has a story to tell
From all around [E] the [G] world and of course the [Dm] word griot is a word from [Bm]
Habib's [D] culture
He is an [B] original griot like they [A] say an OG
we met sometime in the [G] late 90s and
You heard me on stage somewhere
In Calgary, [C] [A] Canada
This was the first time for me to talk to you and to see you playing and listen in the side of the [Gb] stage
I was in the dark
And [F] you know
[Bb] The way to play [B] guitar
Is a first feel
[A]
Because [Ab] when you [Bb] play
The [B] low notes [G] are very secret
Clearly to the higher notes And the Do do
[Dm] I said, [Bb] where did this come from?
[A] People tell me he is from New [Gb] York
He is American
I said no no no
Some notes he do is like [Ab] a hand music from Mali
[Bm] And since this time
[D] We know each other
[Gb] And we think [G] about making an album together
[D] We make album
Brothers in Bamako
We think why [B] not another [G] one Another album

Catch me in London [Gb] Yes
I have to look at his schedule
Because we are so [D] busy
He is traveling, I am traveling
But I saw you were going to be here in London
I said [G] ah we are free
We jump [A] on an airplane
We get [Gbm] into a studio
[G] And we make some more [D] music together
And we will keep going
So the [G] album will be a collection [D] of meetings
With the [G] gathering of the tribe
My griot [D] brothers and sisters from around [Eb] the world
And Habiba is one of my big inspirations
[Bb] Yesterday's work Yesterday Fresh
