[G] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ I had _ just [Dm]
discovered that echoplex that when you [D] play,
[Bb] the tape goes round, but once it goes around [Am] after a certain amount of time,
[Dm] _ _ you can add another guitar to it, and then you can add another guitar to [Bb] it.
Wow!
That was [Am] amazing! _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I just [Am] made up a chord progression. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ And then I [Bb] _ _ _ _ [C] played_ _
_ _ [A] The loop goes [Gm] around,
a _ [Dm] _
_ harmony_
[Gm] and [Bb] so on.
And I went like, wow, this is [A] great!
It sounded so good.
[Dm] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ [A] _
_ [Bb] I recorded it on this cheap _ tape recorder I had.
[D] On the way to Christus with Phil and the [D] others,
I _ _ [Bb] _ remember at [F] the Undercon station
on the escalator, [A] I switched it [D] on.
Listen [Bb] to this! _ _
_ [F] _ Wow, that sounds [C] great!
[A] Hey, Michael, can we meet somewhere?
_ [Bb] And so Phil [F] came over to my [G] place.
I just moved [A] in there basically.
[Dm] And he came [C] into my place, and I remember I had a table here,
[Dm] _ _
Phil's sitting over there, I'm sitting over here,
so he [G] wanted me to [Dm] play the chords without the guitar
[D] so that he had something [C] to [Bb] figure out the melody for his vocals and stuff like that.
[F] And so that's what I did.
And then he [C] took it home.
_ [D] _ _ And then basically, [Bb] we have done that with quite [F] a few songs in general.
[G] That was kind of [Dm] our_
Try Me was done the exact same way.
I wrote an instrumental,
[F] and [D] it ended up so good that Phil wanted [Bb] to take out the instrumental
and just let him hear the chords and see what [A] he can come up with.
And he would come up with something really good,
and then we just [F] started him singing over the same [C] chords
until we got, [A] you know, after two verses and [Bb] choruses,
_ we _ [D] inserted the _ instrumental [A] part of the song.
_ [Bb] _ _ [C] _ I'm on the [F] run [D] so [A] far away
[D] You and you and you [Bb] and you
[C] I'm on the _ [G] run so [A] far away from _ _ _ you
_ [Bb] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
Oh, [D] I'm a-leaving
_ [Bb] _ _ _
_ [Am] _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ [Am] _
_ [D] You know, to be [Bb] honest, Dr.
_ [C] Dr.,
I'm not really sure how well [A] people took that song in [Bb] the beginning.
And I didn't [D] focus on it either.
I mean, you know, we were playing gigs.
I wasn't there for Dr.
Dr.
I was there because I enjoyed playing and playing lead [Dm] guitar and so on.
And, [Bb] you know, it _ [Eb] took about 10 years
before Dr.
Dr.
did anything, really,
[Bb] because I think once [C] it _ made it on the live album,
I think that's when it took off. _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ [C] I'm on the [G] run so [A] far [D] away from you _
