Me and a guitar. I think what I do might be described as "Allegorical American Music." I'm in love with the mystery of three chords, a simple melody and sometimes obtuse lyrics. In this digital world of sampled pure tones and instant "professionalism" these are songs written as simple arrangements for guitar and voice in the American song writing folk tradition. Everything is recorded straight off into a couple of mics with no "fancy" multi-tracking, sampling or "real" production. I hope you might enjoy them. - john ford

Story behind the song
Standing in the check out line at the grocery store. Reading the headlines on the tabloids and rags. On one there was a story about a movie star who's child was ill... the quote was "he's in God's hands now". I thought to myself, "we all are."
Lyrics
the lights are going down as the sun comes up to play the birth of new tomorrows meets the death of yesterday should be there by morning just count down another mile let the road come kiss the rubber cause we're all in gods hands now head straight on to the daylight aint no stopping down put your hand to the wheel and strap on the sacred cow stand back from the shadows the blade and the plow it's easy to be another casualty and were all in gods hands now in gods hands now in gods hands now in gods hands now in gods hands now just let go of your grip ya never know what you'll get cause we're all in gods hands now saw the angels up in heaven and the lights down on the ground built a wall around the deadly sins but the little ones got me bound same old morning story sung nightly on death row killing time for the big return while we're all in gods hands now this world can be so vile and there aint no cure for life put a bandaid on the razors edge and sharpen up your knife I know I'm missing something not sure it's you somehow but dreams are truth and lies are clues that we're all in gods hands now in gods hands now in gods hands now in gods hands now in gods hands now bend an ear to the call and brace for a fall cause we're all in gods hands now
