[Gb] [Bbm] [Ab]
[C] What's the [F] first time [Bbm] you [Fm] [Db] heard [F]
Buddy Guy's [Fm] [C]
[F] [Fm]
[Bbm] [F] music?
[Bbm]
[Ab] [Db] How can you not?
He is a [G] legend.
There's not a lot of ways I can put it other than it's just an enormous honor.
[Gb] [Db] [Bbm]
[Ab] [Db]
Hey Buddy [Ab] Guy.
Hey Buddy.
It's a pleasure man.
Very nice to meet you.
Now [Db] in the same year man.
Come on in.
Have a seat and make a thank you.
[Bbm] Happy birthday man.
Come [Ab] on in and make yourself at home.
Act like you live here.
[Db] Alright then.
Alright.
Wow.
Thank [Ab] you.
No, it's an honor.
Who's picture you got on your shirt?
This is Keith.
[Db] I knew who it was.
I just [Bbm] wanted to see what you were going to tell [Ab] me.
Well, you know, like yourself, [Eb] they're big [Db] inspirations and influences of mine.
You know [Ab] a lot of people speak about influences.
We all had that [Db] man.
[Gb] I didn't learn nothing in school.
[Bbm] I learned by listening to other people.
[Fm] But you learned it all [Db] when you were really like there, [Gb] like you say, away from school just listening,
[Bbm] listening to records or [Ab] live.
Seven, eight. Yeah.
That [B] old seven, eight that you can't drop.
Yeah, because it'll smash.
[Db] Smash.
Wow.
Yeah.
That's incredible.
And then when I wore it out, [Fm] I couldn't afford another.
I used to take a needle and put it in my [Bbm] mouth like this and spin the record down and you can [B] Really?
Oh yeah, just try that.
I've never [Ebm] tried that.
Yeah, [Db] I mean I didn't quite, I wasn't going to those lengths myself.
Well, you know, [Ab] you're too young to do that.
You don't have to do that.
You know, a [Bb] time for me when [Bbm] there's all of these sort of internet [Fm] tutorial videos and all this [Eb] stuff,
I still [C] believe in putting a record on and just listening [Fm] and playing what I hear, you know.
[Gb] Everything needs to [Db] grow, leave it to [Bbm] the [Ab] breeze.
Let the [Ebm] ashes fall, [C]
forget [Fm] about me.
I was born on a farm [Gb] and the next neighbor [Db] was five miles away.
[Bbm] And on Sunday [Fm] I would go play with the other kids.
[Ab] [Db] And when I come home, my mother would [Fm] tell me, now don't [Ab] go back up there next Sunday,
say, because they'll get tired of looking [Gb] at you.
And I [Db] play my music the same way.
If I play [Bbm] a concert, [Ab] if they call me back next week, I won't [Eb] go.
[Db] No, you won't wait it out.
Well, it's best to be [Ab] wanted and not wanted.
Yeah.
You know, and I don't care how good you [Eb] are or how good a [Db] meal, your favorite meal you [Bbm] love,
if [Ab] they feed it to you for seven days on that eighth day, [Eb] you'll say, let me try [Db] something else.
Yeah, leave me wanting more.
[Ab] That's why I can't wait to hear you.
Well, [Db] I'll do my best.
[Gb] Sat hanging out with Buddy [Bbm] Guy, [Fm] the Buddy Guy.
[Db] So that was nuts, man.
[Gb] That was so cool.
[Bbm]
[Ab] We're going to go downstairs in a little bit and play.
[Ebm] I'm going to try and play.
[Db] Yeah, we'll see how it goes.
Give it up for this [Fm] young man, the sensational musician, guitarist, all the way from [Bbm] London,
J-B!
[Ebm] [Db]
It's one of my favorites that [B] Buddy did.
[A]
[E] Mary had a little lamb, [Em] [E]
and every village [B] I went [A] to, [E] she would bring me home.
[A]
[E] [B]
[Em] [Ab]
[A] I'm [E] kind of on cloud nine right now.
That's probably one of the coolest things that's ever happened to me as a musician, by a long way.
Next!
[Ab] Everything that's broke, [C]
leave it to [Bbm] the [Ab] breeze.
Why don't you be [C] you, and I'll be [Ab] me?
