Start Jamming...
So this very handsome young man here on the right,
this thing Josh Alleville.
We finished a record for Josh a few months back,
and he just is working on putting it out.
He's actually going to be playing here in Carborough
at the Arts Center on January 16th.
His very own show, Picking and Grinning.
But we're going to get him to Pick and Grin for you here tonight,
a song off of that record that's called Solomon.
Solomon,

[Em] [G]
close the gates,
[C] standing by the [G]
crossroads.
[C] Now his eyes were [G] sunk,
his lips [Em] were parched,
[G]
now he'll [D] be [G] falling.
Well, his little son stood by his side,
[C] until [G] him he sent.
[C] Here fell the mother [G] of the sick,
[Em] who [G] crawled into her,
and cried for her friend.
Well, he turned around and went in,
and [C] his son got up [G] to his father,
[C] and saw his son [G] on the land,
[Em] and the Lord said,
[G] Just give him a little more time.
[C] [G]

So here on the shore,
out past the nearby,
[C] the crowd stood [G] around and thought,
[C]
That's the reason [G] why [Em] we fly,
[G] that's why we're here.
Well, just in a hearse,
rolls forth a fire,
[C]
and watch the [G] children appear.
[C] They've gone [G] before,
to spell murder,
to leave this world out there.
[C] [G]

[G] [Em] [E]
[G]
[Bm] Come now, you good time-drown drinker,
[C] drink this warm [G] new peck,
[C]
quit the [G] [E] overflowing boat,
before [D] it is [G] too late.
