Title: I Need a Flashlight
Post by: MarioD on September 24, 2017, 03:25:10 PM
I have been asked many times why don't you sing.  Well here's why.

Band-in-a-Box is playing the drums, bass, and piano.  I am playing the slide, rhythm and lead guitars as well as trying to sing.

I need a Flashlight

V1
I've got wrinkles where they never were before
I've got wrinkles where they never were before
And half of my hair
Is on the showers' floor

V2
My mind ain't what it used to be
My mind ain't what it used to be
When my mind says to do things   
my body disagrees

C
I wobble when I walk
My mind goes blank when I talk
Now my future's so bright
I need a flashlight

V
I still play guitar but now my fingers slow
I still play guitar but now my fingers slow
I can't play fast
Anymore

Guitar solo - OK that was pretty good

C
I wobble when I walk
My mind goes blank when I talk
Now my future's so bright
I need a flashlight

Yea my future's so bright
I need a flashlight

For someone who rarely ever sings,your pipes are sounding quite good,my friend. 8) The tone of your voice reminds me of Wyatt(our dear departed friend.)
If it makes you feel any better,I'm 48 and I wobble and have memory issues(which is why I visit the gym regularly and continue to work...to keep what mobility I have left and keep my mind somewhat sharp.) :-\ ;)

Thanx Tom.  That Wyatt comment is a great, if over exaggerated, praise.  THANX!
