The Mike Jackal Band

Introduction to your band: By band you mean me. I just love playing guitar and have been addicted for 4 years now. I know I am not that good and don't pretend to be something I'm not, it's just me messing around and trying to make some songs that sound half decent.

Story behind the song

As I try to expand my learning on how to play the blues I often look for new ideas. I read an article on 12bar.de recently about trying to make your guitar fills and solos sound like singing. So this is my experiment at doing that, I tried to play the lyrics as if I was singing them. This is such a beautiful song and I hope I did it justice.

Lyrics

Your precious love
Means more to me
Than any love could ever be
For when I wanted you
I was so lonely and so blue
For that's what love will do

And darling, I'm
(I'm so surprised)
Oh, when I first realized
(I realized)
That a-you were fooling me
And darling
(Whoa-ooh)
They say that our love won't grow
But I just wanna tell them
(Ooo-ooo-ooo)
That they don't know-oh-ho

For as long
As you're in love with me
Our love will grow wider
Deeper than any sea

And of all the things that I want
In this whole wide world
Is just for you to say
That you'll be my girl

And woo-ooo-ooo
(Wanting you)
Wanting you
(Oh-ooh, I'm lonely and blue)
I'm so-whoa, lonely
(That's what love will do)
