I'd like to introduce you to somebody whose music you've just come to know and love over the last year or so.
And this incredible band, this is BB King and BB King's band here.
Where's BB?
Believe it or not, BB King came to Dublin, Ireland.
He was playing in this club in Dublin, Ireland and we wrote this song for him.
It's called When Love Comes to Town.
I had went to listen to the tape and I was able to kind of get some of it together.
What would you like to say?
I love the song.
I think that the lyrics is really, real heavy lyrics.
You're mighty young to write such heavy lyrics.
You know, I'm one of those kind of rebel-like guys.
I like to kind of get in there and see what's going on.
Break the mold a little bit.
Yeah, try it.
They kind of look at me kind of weird.
They say, here he is, a 62 year old and look what he's trying to do.
I'm no good with chords, so what we do is get somebody else to play chords.
Sure, well, I'll let you do that.
There's not much chords in this.
I think there's only two.
I'm horrible with chords.
[Dm] [D]
I don't know what to do there.

I
[Dm]
[D]
was a sailor, I was lost [Dm] at sea.
Under the waves before the rest you meet.

Love came down upon a young [G] [D] man's feet.
Love came [Dm] down [G] upon
Guess [Dm] that slave.
Baby, I was wrong [D] to never let you down.
But I [C#] did what I did before love [Dm] came down.
[D]
[Dm]
[D] I
[Dm]
used to make love under the red sunset.
I was making promises and soon to [D] forget.
There was a lace on a wedding gown and I was scared.
But I left her standing before love came.
[G] Ran into a Jew joint when I heard a guitar [D] scream.
Woke up to the blue and I fell [Dm] into a dream.
As the music played [D] I saw my life turn [G] around.
That was the day before love came in town.
Love came down upon a kiss that's strange.
[D] Love came down [Dm] upon
Baby, I was wrong to never let you [D] down.
But I did what I did before love came in town.
[Dm]
[D] Hey!
Hey!
[Dm] [G] Hey!
Hey!
[C] [Dm]
I held [G] a scabbard on a soldier's sword.
I threw the dice when they pierced his side.
But I've seen love conquer great divides.
[C] Love came down upon a young [D] man's feet.
