Start Jamming...
Okay, is there one song of yours that you're most proud of?
Could you play it and then maybe explain why that song?
Yeah, I like Palmyra a lot, just because I'm a sucker for slow songs.
And it doesn't seem like a lot of people are willing to take the time to listen to slow songs these days because it's a fast-paced world.
But yeah, I wrote the lyrics to Palmyra while I was cutting the grass in Palmyra, her [Eb] mom's yard.
And because it's simple, I had to keep a few lines so I could remember them all.
And just keep the repetition going in my head so I didn't lose it.
But yeah, I don't [Db] know.
Isn't that 3-4-2-2?
Yeah, just slow, [B] little bounce, 3-4-6-8.
And I like this song because it's [Abm] kind of a romantic song, but [Db] it's not like
It's so easy just to be like, oh, I think you're great and I love you.
That's easy to say, but [B] the way the words [Gb] go, it's

She tastes just like medicine.
She's got a room with a balcony.

[E] Fix you a Robert Roy.

[Gb] Spilled out a proud, freaky tattoo.
[Gb] Was my [E] name on the back of her hand.
Oh, my [B]
Palmyra, oh, my [E] Palmyra.
Oh, my [B] Palmyra.
