MKM, I am so proud of you. Your dad used to inspire you and now you are able to inspire him.
Way to go! That's how things are supposed to work.
Hope you guys can do this again soon and often.

Hi gtrig3,
This is an interesting song with a traditional  country melody line and an unusual chord progression.
I got in trouble twice on this forum by writing out all the copywritten lyrics to a song and then jotting the chord changes over the sylable of the lyric where they hit. So this time I am just writing chords over the words and letting you listen to the video and figure out the rest. Jeff Bridges has a pleasing voice but he has a bad case of the mumbles so it's not gonna be easy.
The intro is in Bm (minor) until after the word "train", then F#. After "last night" A
G        C         G        D        A F#               Bm,A

2.  Bm   F#     BM   A  G       C     G           D   A
 
   F#    Bm    A  A7
 
[chorus] D     G            D          Bm  F#  Bm  A
           
G        D       A        D G D

Bm    F#  BM  A G       C  G      D

  A   F# Bm  A   Bm        F#    BM    A

   G       C       G                      D          A
   
    F#         BM    A
   
    D  G    D        BM  F#            BM

     G        D    A   A                   D       G   D

Question marks for lyrics I'm guessing at.
Good luck,

lyrics removed by moderator topdown. TubaT - you are not "in trouble" and I along with many members really appreciate your sharing your transposing skills. That said, posting copyrighted lyrics is a tricky subject and in the future, I encourage you to send your full transpositions to the original poster via email instead of posting them on the forum. I am sure you understand. Thanks, Jeff

Congrats, Toney. The middle name will come to you and Ms. Toney and it will be obviously the right one.
I called my son hundreds of names as he grew up- the more outlandish the better - Throckmorton, Fenwick, Sigismund etc...
An old bandmate called me and asked how Fenwick was doing. I was confused at first until I remembered calling my son that in the mid 70's.

Efforts have been made to change us over to metric but the resistance backlash has been huge.
Politicians spend their political capital on issues they can more easily win.

My buddy Chip hooked up his 8 channel Peavey RQ2310 mixer to Casey's new laptop. It has 48 volt phantom power and sounds great. It also can serve as a band gig performance mixer.
We're having a ball hooking up keyboard (contains all rhythm instruments), bass, mikes and guitars all at once.

"Golden Gove" by Gove Scrivenor

A downside to tribute bands is when they peter out so does your money.
My best buddy had a Jimmy Buffet show he played on the college circuit ten years ago. He wowed 'em with a huge sound system, great backing tracks, launching T-shirts into the crowd with a rubber band ballon launcher - he even hauled in his own palm trees and island scenery.
He quickly ran his income up to well over a hundred grand a year.
The problem was, Jimmy Buffet got old and rich and slowed down his producion of C.D's and live shows. My friend's income decreased as college students moved on to other music heros.

Ms. Lena, you have a wonderful command of your language. This poem is a graphic depiction of the despair we get lost in when a special one is taken from us. No need to regret the negative expression of our darker side.
We need to face this before we can begin to heal.
Then we need to learn to live on with that much pain.

Spring is so late this year but I am still not quite ready for it.
Motorcycle and lawn mower won't crank so far but they will. I am putting up my longsleeve shirts, jeans and thermals and breaking out the cargo shorts and Hawaiian flowerdy shirts.
This is so cool!

G,A,F#m, G,A,Bm,A,Bm
CHORDS OVER THE SOLO:
G,A,Bm,A,Bm  G,A,F#m  G,A,F#m,G,A,Bm,A,Bm
VERSE3 Black is the colour:
G,A,Bm,A,Bm        G,A,F#m

Can be played with a capo on the second fret or:

Rock on,girl.
