_ _ _ _ _ _ We are in Buffalo, Wyoming filming _ a Christmas _ song called The Little Drummer Boy in the fall.
So we're getting close to Christmas, which is [Em] nice.
It's pretty hot out today.
_ [G] Is it hot out today, V?
_ [D]
It's a little warm, wasn't it?
[A] _ _ _ [D] But it's going well.
[G] He makes it well with his drumming.
He practiced for how many, like two weeks or so?
[C] The drums?
Yeah. _
It's _ [G] _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ going to be _ like any music video.
[C]
Always very interesting to see the end result.
_ _ [D] It's going to be cool.
_ [E] The [D] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ ship over here, the spot left, the smoke [A] coming up.
_ You've got one without him playing too, [B] because I [E] think that epic swing [Em] around at the end could be the money [D] moment. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Back up, back up.
[E] _ [D] That _ _ was [N] _ really good.
He hit my hand though, Ben.
What?
He hit my hand.
Okay, let's go [D] again.
At least three more times. _ _ _ _ _
_ Some _ of the most tragic [G] _
moments in human history, [D] in American history, _ _ _ _ have been wars.
Drummer Boy, as a song, has always been sort of synonymous with this very polarized _ time _ of wars,
because rewind a few hundred years ago, the way they would communicate war tactics [Em] was through the drum.
We [G] kind of thought about flipping that concept on [F#m] its head,
[A] and that this little drummer boy, as the song, the _ [E] 1960s Little Drummer Boy song was written,
depicts [G] this boy actually playing [C] not to deliver a tactic [G] to destroy someone or [A]
change the war tide,
but actually the little drummer boy was [D] playing to, on the contrary, to bring people together and to honor God.
He's marching through these scenes back to [E] _ [D] this moment at Jesus' _ manger to offer [G] Jesus his gift.
_ [D]
That's what you look [G] like on the street. _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ Pretty cool, huh?
_ [G] _
Here's the deal.
Right here, [D] _ this is where you're going to start, okay?
And then see right over here where that big rock is?
You're going to head straight towards that rock.
See that rock right there? _ _
Kind of looks like a bear.
[G] _ Oh, that where the [D] stick pile is?
Yeah, that's it.
The giant one that I'm [Dm] looking at already?
[F] Yeah.
Like Daddy's on me?
[Fm] Yeah.
_ [F] _ _
_ _ I _ _ _ _
_ [D#] _ _ _ _ [N] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ feel like I'm a child manager. _
_ _ _ Ricky's part is trying to get them not to smile and look kind of like normal.
That was an issue to start with, but now he's just _ _ _ everywhere he goes.
_ It's funny.
[G#m] _ Wyoming is a fascinating place _ [E] because you'll literally be here [N] and have this massive lake,
and then you come here and you're at a completely different, you've got a stream, _ colorful trees, the grass,
completely different topography.
Yeah, I think this green area here, you guys weaving through the trees, following him, and then we do a creek.
_ That big falls in here, _ and you'll lose him for the rest of the day. _
_ _ We can lose the [D] water.
We already got the lake, ocean.
[Em] _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
This [A] is the way I see it right now.
The audience doesn't know it, but it's like a snippet of this [Em] time frame,
snippet of this time frame, all the way back to [G]
the campfire.
So we're back at the [C] campfire, first verse, [G] we sing out of the campfire, and then [A] the drummer boy passes by in the first verse.
And we're sitting at the [D] campfire, we get up and start following the drummer boy mid first verse, in the [G] night.
I think it [D] starts at night, we go through the day, and then it ends at [E] night.
Come on.
[D] _
_ _ God's great earth right here. _ _
This [E] is, _ if you [D] look over here, even _ sort of the pathway, _ we're going to call it the pathway back in _ time.
[G] _
Excuse me, to _ _ [D] Jerusalem, town of David, Bethlehem, and ultimately the manger.
But we're about to send up a drone to film us _ traversing [G] _ the mountains here.
[D]
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, this, _ who are you in the story?
I know, but what do you play?
_ _ [Em] Drums.
Yeah, are you the drummer boy?
_ [D] _ _ He's been rehearsing for like, how [A] long?
I think four [F#m] or five?
Five weeks?
[Em] Because you had to rehearse [D] with the track, right?
_ I [N] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ haven't operated one of those gimbals in a long time, that's maybe the hardest camera work I've done in at least two or three years.
Me and my [D] drum!
And then go. _ _
_ _ _ _ Just outside of Salt Lake, _ pulling up to the chosen set.
[G]
The hook is in the back.
[D] _ We've got the [N] drummer boy.
_ _ And?
The drummer boy and his dad.
And we are just about to begin an all night, [B] all night, most of the [Bm] night at least, deep into the [F#]
darkness, night shoot [G] in Jerusalem. _
So we're [A] going to march out this door _ [B] later _ _ over to [D] _ where baby [G] Jesus was born.
Action!
_ _ [A] _
_ [D] You're back!
[Dm] _ I don't _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ know how to do it.
[E] Do you?
[D] Ok. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#] _ _ [C] _ _ [B] _ [N] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Go _ _ _ _ get a [F#m] hug.
Go get a [D#] hug. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Can [B] we do the cat movie?
Woo hoo! _ _ _ _ _ _
