G                                  D               G  

Here's a little something that I brought here for you

C                     G         D

It ain't much but it might just do

G                    D      G

Fairly serious could hardly say

     C                  D     G

That I couldn't give my heart away

C                   D     G

I couldn't give my heart away

G D G

C D G

G                     D       G

It's never enough to feel and say

C              G    D

Throw my promises away

G                   D       G

Several things that I could do

    C                  D        G

But I couldn't give my heart to you

C                   D       G

I couldn't give my heart to you

D                       C

Smokes on the table the matches are lost

        D                       C

There's room in the back of the bar

G                    D      G

Fairly serious could hardly say

C                       D     G

That I couldn't give my heart away

C                   D     G

I couldn't give my heart away

Aw, it's not really serious but I should prove

C                        G           D

That I don't mean what I might not do

G                    D     G

Not that you wanted it anyway

C                       D       G

But I couldn't give my heart away

C                   D       G

I couldn't give my heart away...

C                   D       G

I couldn't give my heart away...

Winter Song (Cover of: The Head and the Heart)

Thought I'd record this song on a bright, beautiful, near-summer day =\ Trying out my new Tascam DR-05. This is ambient of me at my Korg SP250, factory speakers on the Korg. Mounted the Tascam on a mini tripod and set it on the Korg, hence the fingernail clicks throughout. Here's a link to the The Head and the Heart - Winter Song chords I used: http://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/t/the_head_and_the_heart/winter_song_ver3_crd.htm

Blower's Daughter (Damien Rice cover)

I used this chordsheet:
http://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/d/damien_rice/blowers_daughter_ver4_crd.htm

Recorded with D25 Breedlove and my voice into a Blue Snowball USB mic, one track, reverb via GarageBand.

You and I (Wilco cover)

This is a Wilco song that I like. One-track recording into Blue Snowball using GarageBand compression and reverb.

Just South of Nowhere (Gin Blossoms cover)

This is my miked one-take on a song written by Jesse Valenzuela of the Gin Blossoms.

I played this chord sheet
http://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/g/gin_blossoms/just_south_of_nowhere_crd.htm

so it's D major but i put a capo on 2 to play G F C etc

Oh My Sweet Carolina

original chord sheet from http://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/r/ryan_adams/oh_my_sweet_carolina_crd.htm


these are the true chords. the original chord sheet has a capo on 2, which makes this easier to play on guitar but trickier on other instruments that cannot be transposed as easily.


here is the original studio performance: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJY50iaYqJY

Verse 1
    D                         G       D
I went down to Houston and I stopped in San Antone
    D                            A
I passed up the station for the bus
      G                 D               Bm               G
Was trying to find me something but I wasn't sure just what
          D          A               D
Man I ended up with pockets full of dust


Verse 2 (same chords):
So I went on to Cleveland and I ended up insane
Bought a borrowed suit and learned to dance
I was spendin' money like the way it likes to rain
Man I ended up with pockets full of cane


Chorus:
      Bm  G      D      Bm       G           A
Oh my swe-eet Carolina, what compels me to go
      Bm  G         D              Bm      A         G
Oh my swe-eet disposition, may you one day carry me home


(repeat intro)
Verse 3:
I ain't never been to Vegas but I gambled up my life
Building newsprint boats I raced to sewer mains
Trying to find me something but I wasn't sure just what
Funny how they say that some things never change


(repeat chorus)


(piano break)
Bm G D A x3
D D/C# Bm A G


Verse 4:
Up here in the city, it feels like things are closin' in
The sunset's just my light bulb burning out
I miss Kentucky and I miss my family
All the sweetest winds they blow across the south


(repeat chorus)
         Bm     A        D G
May you one day carry me ho____me.
Bm     A        D G
Bm     A        D

Bm G D A
D D/C# Bm A G


end on D

Everybody Knows

The Dixie Chicks write some damn good songs. This is a one-track cover -- Breedlove D25 and Blue Snowball mike.
