Cowboy chords. Capo 1 D (D#). I've got a gig in a distillery in a week. Might be able to work this one up quick.

She ain't no kid In a career that spans more than four decades, Flores has proven to be a musical chameleon. She’s jumped feet first into punk rock (with her ’70-era band, the Screaming Sirens), country of both the Bakersfield and Nashville varieties, the Texas singer/songwriter scene, alt-country, straight-up rock and rockabilly. So much so the latter that her onstage moniker for years was “The Rockabilly Filly.” But always and throughout, she has been the Chick with the Pick.She came to Roberto-Venn while I was a student there. She really knows her shit, guitar-wise. Not one of those, "I play what feels right" kind of players like Paul McCartney (who obviously has some preferences) - more along the lines of someone who knows how to describe technically how to really dial in the setup she prefers. Oh yeah, she can play and sing really well, too. She kept a classroom full of guys mightily impressed over an hour and a half or so of lecture/discussion/Q&A/playing. Roughly 50 years ago, I lived in San Diego. Rosie played San Diego venues frequently, and she was hot. I had a crush on her, Mike

Home again, home again, jiggety jig. Welcome back -- you missed a light-plane crash a couple miles from your home that sadly killed two guys. Yes, Melva saw this on one of her news feeds. Also, a young man whose body was found in the river near here was the son of a friend.

I knocked over a water glass at the lunch table and launched into "There Stands the Glass" (only I changed it to "There Went the Glass"). My wife was not familiar with the tune, despite its universality. After all, everyone knows Webb Pierce, right? Sorry, JohnB. I played a recording of this song a minute ago. Sue sad, “What’s that !” I said it’s a song I was considering doing for the distillery. She said, “I hate it. It doesn’t sound like anything you would ever do. “

It's a simple song. And seems to try to play both sides of the fence. "My baby is gone I need a drink." Plus "It's my first one today," like he's really not a degenerate. You can't have your drink and drunk it too.
Here's a more truthful look at the same concept

That was strange. I thought it sounded vaguely like, Willy, but who is that young guy. Then I realized is WAS Willy from another generation. And I was starting to enjoy his guitar work until he lapsed into a Neil Young-like single note solo.
