[Am] [Dm]
[Am]
Take four [Em] minutes to tell your partner [E] your life story in as much detail as possible.
[Dm] [Am]
So, let's see your life story would be your band story.
[C]
Buck, Annie, New York, Mr.
Kiwi, tens of thousands of gas [F] stations, tour, blues, kids got talent,
[C] here we go, guitars, obsession, [F] Chicago, Midwest, in a [G] band, broken parasite, eight years old, early age,
[C] young little one, beautiful boy, [G] television, star, finding bass, instrument, teacher who blows his mind,
realizing journey, going off into the abyss of music and something more, and then me just
Michael Hedges, band, Michael Hedges, little women, guitar, crying, writing songs,
snow, church, not church, broken string, broken heart, fixing heart, fixing string.
Tension, release, open, close, [D] open, close.
[Em]
[D]
[G]
For [Em] what in life do you [D] feel most grateful?
I'd say, I don't know, family, like having a relationship with family.
It is pretty cool to be able to see, taste, smell, touch, and to feel so much emotion through those things.
I am very thankful [E] for air conditioning, specifically, because every time I'm with it,
if I'm hot and it's cooling me down, I just can't believe [C] that it exists in that of it.
I feel like we've accomplished a lot of things, but there's also an underlying knowing of achieving a specific event is not the point.
[D] The [C] [Am] biggest feeling of success [G] is being aware, [C] keeping alive, and awake, and feeling in ourselves,
[Am] like how you can bring certain things to light [G] in each other [G] or in yourself.
Whoa, what, you feel that?
Well, it makes me feel this, this, and then suddenly you're just in a [Am] different plane of awareness.
[A]
[C] Alternate, sharing something that you consider a positive [Am] characteristic [G] about
[C] Someone do one for [Am] me.
[C] Also, James' ability to release some things that would [G] be hard for me to let go [A] of, or, you know, just like [C] water under the bridge.
One thing I admire about Buck is his unhesitating openness to [G] jumping into situations.
This one time we were on [Am] a beach, and then I was looking at Buck, and I was saying, man, [C] it's so amazing.
How do you do this thing where you build things, and it's like you want [A] something, you have an idea, and [C] then you do it.
The initiative is really strong.
I said, how do you do it?
And he looked at me, and he was like, my dad told me when I was young.
He said, if you want something, you just [C#] build it.
And we were both like, oh my God, you [C] just build it.
And it made so much sense.
So [G] simple.
[F]
[C] Max's [F] certain type of [C] playfulness.
It's like [G] in touch with the purest form of play, like how you can [F] play, like play with me, play with someone you meet.
[C]
Play in the sense [G] of unlocking other people's childlike [A] curiosity in [G] nature, like immediately.
Like I've seen it happen with people you meet, like people who [C] might
You don't even know.
[G] You don't even have a chance to see if they are guarded, because [C] I've seen you just sort of dispel it just by being yourself.
I'd like to say something [G] about Annie.
Your bravery, you have a very strong, powerful engine.
It basically is about being present.
It's something that's almost [C] like breathing for you.
The things that [G#m] you do with music, you do with other things also.
I think Adrian is a talented excavator.
Instead of just being like, oh, I feel all this and it sucks, or I feel all this and it's so much, it's like, I feel all of it, now I'm going to explore it.
And it happens to be through music.
[E] It's not the [G#m] energy reeling, [B] nor the lines.
We have conversations where we [Em] think, okay, this is pretty intense.
And then we're like, but [G] beneath that even, there's this going on.
And then we backtrack ten more years and we're like, whoa, okay.
[E]
[C] [Am]
[Em]
[Dm] [Am]
[Dm]
[C] Crisp fall, like kind of mushy houses.
I feel like the smell of, I was born and raised in Tel Aviv, in Israel.
So every time I come back, I land, I can [E] smell the smells.
Summer, it smells like water coming up your nose because it's [D#] humid.
And also, I have family in the States, my grandma, my aunt, my uncle.
So I used to come every year since I was a baby.
So coming to the States was also part of the smell of childhood.
Every time I'd land, I'd be like, in [G] my idea, it was like, ah, the land of fun, of snow, [N] of presence.
Mine smelled like ladybugs because I had an infestation of ladybugs in my room.
And it was like, we'd have to vacuum, I feel bad about this, but we had to vacuum rows of them.
Like mowing a lawn almost, because they would cover the ceiling.
And I remember the smell, like, like this really wild smell.
Yeah, that's
A thousand ladybugs, Bernie.
Whoa.
What's that?
That's what he [A] asked.
