An acoustic tribute song to Elliott Smith

Solo acoustic folk music.
Basically a solo acoustic band. I am the singer/songwriter, and I play guitar. When there are other instruments on the tracks, I'll give credit where credit is due.

Story behind the song
A tribute song to Elliott Smith. I wrote it one night after listening to Either/Or about 4 times through.
Lyrics
I had dinner with Elliott Smith I asked him was it all worth it He gave me the answer I thought I would get There's no living soul that doesn't live with regret He told me of his time alone And the records he made all on his own He showed me that it only takes one To do what just has to be done He's so high above me I'm so far below The full impact of his lifetime I guess I'll never know I'll meet him in London sometime next week I'll wait my turn till I can speak Till him I can't wait till we meet again A fond farewell to my newest friend He's so high above me I'm so far below The full impact of his lifetime I guess I'll never know
