Jeff [F#] Bella we met back in the 70s, he was singing with Emmylou [C] Harris in the Hop Band,
great harmony singer.
And we kind of lost track of him there for a while.
_ _ And then a few years later, we were putting an album [N] together in Colorado, and we were
looking for that elusive hit.
A friend of mine gave me this album that this fella had made that had just a record full of them.
And it had songs like, Ain't Living Long Like This, Leaving [D#] Louisiana in the Broad Bay.
[N] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ I had a crush _ on that man.
_ But it had this song which we were [G] very fortunate to take up in the upper reaches of the pop
charts and the [N] country charts.
A song called An American Dream. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Some years later, this fella is a legendary songwriter and an amazing artist and has been
singing a lot with Emmylou Harris as a duo as well.
Please make welcome Mr.
Rodney Crowell. _ _ _ _ _ _
