[F#] It [E] comes and goes in seasons around [B] here, I thought [F#] again.
There's [C#m] nothing left [B] around to yield this [A] sorry ignorance.
If I do echo, I hope you never [G#] see.
My mom bought me a guitar when I was [G#m] young, but I never really played it.
It was sort of like one of those, like sitting there, and it broke a string, and nobody knew how to restring it.
And then it just, I guess what everybody does, it looked cool.
Who doesn't want to be in a band?
I think I was just born with an ability to kind of put my thoughts down to music, poetically I guess.
I have to do it, it's like a thing that I have to get out of me.
And I'm not sure why, it's just sort of, I guess in my DNA.
Once I figured out that this and this, these two fingers here, would kind of make,
like song two by Blur was the first song that I learned how to play, because it was really easy.
And then once I found out that once you added the pinky, you could make a power chord,
I was like, oh my god, I can write as many songs as I want now, because I know kind of how to make chords.
So I think 13 or 14 I started really [C#] writing pretty consistently.
[E] [F#] You know [A] I hope there's one thing now.
[B] I bought a Japanese Telecaster when I was 17.
My dad actually paid me to stay home for spring break, instead of going and having to pay for a house to rent and stuff.
And so I took that money and bought this used Japanese Tele.
And then I just kind of fell in love with that and have been playing them ever since.
For me, I sort of, like this is an interesting guitar, because everything's taken out of it,
except for the really small 59 pickup.
And it's like really loud.
The sort of traditional Telecasters that have [C#m] really kind of tinny sound, I never really loved that.
I really was always kind of more towards the Mexican Tele's that had this kind of deeper, kind of thicker, heavy sound.
So it kind of took me a while to figure out which one I wanted.
And you kind of learn that the most expensive guitar doesn't necessarily mean [G#] it's the best sounding guitar.
And you just kind of have to find out what you like.
Like this here, [C#m] I was always cutting my hands.
It had this switch here that would switch between this and this.
And it had [B] this other little switch down here that I have no idea what it did.
And I was only using it for one setting.
And so we got a guy to strip everything out and just hardwire it straight to where you plug it in.
And when we did that, it made it about 25% louder.
[C#] And it was like, oh man, this is it.
And this guitar has been through a lot.
I've broken it several times and thrown it, but it always kind of bounces back and still sounds [E] great.
Initially, [F#] when I first got [E] a nice amp, [C#m] I had a Blues Junior, but [E] I needed something louder.
[F#] And so I got a [C#m] DeVille.
And then after a while, I got the [F#] Fender Twin.
And I broke them all the [C#m] time.
I broke like five of them while we were making our second [E] record because they were so [F#] powerful and there was so much [C#] volume.
[E] And I just [F#] would overpower them and break them over and over and over again.
And then I [C#m] moved to a Supersonic for a couple of tours.
[E] And after all [F#] was said and done, I went back [C#] to the DeVille.
It's just sort [E] of the most consistent sound that I've [F#] found.
I really love it.
I do volume at like four [C#m] and a half.
I use a Blues Driver [E] pedal to amp [F#m] up the volume.
[C#m] And then a volume pedal to kind of ride that sound.
And then I [F#] have bass at six, treble at six, mid at [C#m] zero, and everything else at zero.
[E] Fender, it's [F#] like my favorite guitars to play.
[C#] We play the amps.
It has [E] been our sound [F#] ever since we've been a band.
