_ _ [G] Our first artist this time is one of the biggest names in the Texas red dirt scene, Stoney
LaRue.
Now he burst [C] onto the Texas music [G] landscape with his 2005 project, the Red Dirt album,
thanks to his solid song writing and a tremendous voice.
Well we caught up with him recently
to discuss his unique approach [Em] to making music.
_ [G] I've got five songs down on the new album.
I've got the other five written [Em] and so the
process is [Bm] happening.
[G] I'm not _ contending [D] with resistance.
_ I'm [C] answering the [G] call.
_ Us Time, I wrote that with Dean Dillon, who is a [C] songwriter out of Nashville. _
[G] _ I've been
starting to try to open _ my own kind of creative doors as opposed to kind of, I lived in a
shell.
_ _ I'm just writing with a few people, a few artists, you know, growing up musically.
_ Cody Canada and Jason Boland and Brandon Jenkins [Em] and people like that, [G] just some of my peers. _
But I wanted to try to challenge myself a little more to [Cm] write as many [Em] _ [D] different kinds
of songs with as [C] many different kinds of [G] people as I could.
_ _ [Em] So I started doing that and [Bm] I
ran across Dean [G] Dillon at this LeAnn [D] Womack tribute in Steamboat, [G] Colorado.
_ What a wonderful
experience that was, just to be sitting down with a guy that's written a million great
songs for a million great people, _ people that I look up to.
It took about an hour and
a half.
He took me to lunch.
He says, I think we wrote a good one there.
_ _ So I started playing
it out [Em] live, anxious to see how people are going [D] to either [G]
hold on to it or throw it away.

[E] _

[A] let _ loose. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ A little champagne [Bm] on ice.
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ Put us both _ [A] in the mood. _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ I got a place just down
the [D] road where we could watch the [E] sunrise.
