Recorded live at the Old Baptist Chapel, Tewkesbury Gloucestershire. Recorded at the back the venue in the gallery using a Zoom recorder. The recordings consequently lack a bit of definition

We are a 6 piece band. But were an 8 piece originally We love making music together and have a definite leaning towards Rock and Roll and the Blues, but we have also developed quite an eclectic mix of music to perform. We usually play only twice a year, raising money for local charities.

Story behind the song
These words came to me one night so I wrote them down, I must mention they have nothing to do with my own life. Martin then very skilfully wrote the music with a few tweaks to the lyrics
Lyrics
Lyrics and Chords F E Am E7 Bass + Rhythm Am //// Now that you’ve gone far away and left me all alone Am //// I don’t know why you had to leave but you’ve up and gone Dm //// you filled your bags with all you need and walked right out the door Am //// Now it seems my woman doesn’t live here any more F / E / Am /E7 / I’m Sad I’m Sad I am Mad Am //// Was there something wrong with what I said or was it what I did Am //// I never meant to lose your love but that’s the way it is Dm //// * There’s nothing left of you at home, it’s just an empty shell Am //// * Its why I’m feeling so all alone that Life’s a living hell F / E / Am /G / I’m Sad I’m Sad I’m am Mad C // G // They say it’s time start afresh and get up off the floor F // Am // But I’m not sure if I can really do this any more C // G // I know my life will soon renew cos life it must go on F // E7 // I’ve got to keep on going, that’s why I wrote this song but F / E/ Am /E7 / I’m Sad I’m Mad I’m Still Sad Instrumental to verse Chords Am //// Am //// Dm //// Am //// F / E / Am / E7 / Softer Am // This feeling I get when you aren’t at home Am // Is making me sad and all alone Dm // I have to get used to you not coming back Am // It’s time for me to realise that this is a fact F / E /Am /E7 / I’m Sad I’m Sad I’m not Mad louder Am // I’m starting out to live again Am // With little steps life has begun Dm // The clouds have gone there no more rain Am // So I can be myself again F / E / Am / E7 / I’m Glad I’m Not Mad (but) I’m Not Sad Outro: Am // Dm // Am // C // G // F // Am // C // G // F // E // F / E / A / G G# A I’m not Sad I’m not Mad I am Glad

Great stuff Martin. Makes me want to play 'Live' again. Unfortunately there's slim chance of this at the moment. Playing in a band situation is something that I really miss.

Great song, this is how the blues should sound! Excellent stuff.
