Been awhile since i've posted here- been trying to carve out time to get stuff recorded, basically just hitting record and trying to run through stuff and pretend I'm not recording. This is one of the first songs i ever wrote, many years ago now.

 

The guitar is my super buzzy 2014 Epiphone Caballero. I wanted the ease of plugging the guitar in to record and not have two mics bleeding into each other.

 

anyway, here 'tis

Open D Dan. With capo on third , or whatever suits you.

I think mumfords do it the same way but with capo in different place than me. Open G also works just shift the chords up a string. Would work in any open tuning , but doesn't in standard tuning. At least in no way I found. The little slide part seems to be intrinsic to the song. A 3 chord wonder

W i n t e r s p a r r o w

 

I am a winter sparrow, a small cirrous scamp,

 

A gray ball of audacity in the wilderness of the cold.

 

I am a jumping syncope among the singing melodies

 

Hundred-directional and nimble, cutting shout in the morning

 

 

I am a bird from the clay, in the clay I relive,

 

I’m transforming the clay in a chirping stream

 

Funny rhymes are composing my larky steps

 

On the empty pages of the book of God.

 

 

And God is smiling and He lays me up a nest

 

He knows I am raucous, He knows I am daft

 

And He tips out grains of love – for me to peck

 

When my soul gets hungry in the cold outside.

 

 

Hidden in your palm is that crumb today –

 

A bright affection from The Creator for me.

 

When you open your fist you will not feed a birdy

 

God Himself for his love will be donated.

My latest song based on the lyrics of a friend. Recorded this one with my ZOOM Q3 HD using my new Gibson J180 Billie Joe.

Death came and then went away

 

Death is a waiter who takes us away

 

Needed as a glass of wine

 

Unnecessary as a very empty cup.

 

 

 

A guard is she. Prevents from greatness.

 

Prevents our divinity.

 

Death hides due to its propriety

 

And she is always so natural.

 

 

 

But we are always too surprised

 

Because they are never enough

 

The life or the vine and the bread

 

Or our vicious unconceptions.

 

 

 

Before the feeling of a movement

 

I sit at the table and I order

 

Serenity for me and for my fellow creatures

 

but cruelly empty are all the barrels.

 

 

 

I figure out that there is nothing scary

 

The laughter of the silence is contagious

 

Remained a half full glass

 

And I'm already half empty.
