Topic: "The Wait"
On my MySpace page I see comments from my son’s girlfriend, updated daily, about how she is looking forward to his visit coming up in May. She is very anxious to see him and I guess I can understand that. I think as you grow older you become more accustomed to waiting and learn patience, but I don’t think you ever totally get rid of the feelings of anticipation.
Just thought I would add I play the F7 like this x03210 and that goes for all of my songs. The reason is my barred F sucks so I write a song that works better for me. Don't let is stop you from using the barred F if you like.
