Artist picture
Lake Fork Verne and his banjo. Original country and Americana songs. Songs of yesteryear, growing up during the great depression 1930's and the way things are
Just me and my banjo...writing and singing about how things used to be long ago in the 30;s and 40's and how those experiences affect today. I started out wanting to get on record these stories and songs for my grandchildren; but after doing it for a while, others have expresses interest so we are recording and putting them out there.

That Natural Air © by: Verne Garrison, May 21, 2008 Valley Park, Mo Banjo Tuned to E, Play key of D Moderate Tempo Get (D) a little of (G) that natural (D) air You can get it several (A) ways Open (D) the window at (G) top of the (D) stairs So pleasing, especially on (A) hot summer (D) days I used to lay on the (G) cool linoleum (D) floor No shirt, just bib over-(A) alls Peeking (D) thru the (G) old screen (D) door The smell of sweet (A) clover, best of (D) all Or sit on the old (G) bench of (D) wood Under the big white oak (A) tree Follow (D) white fluffy (G) clouds best I (D) could Or watch the horizon as (A) far as I could (D) see Open the windows (G) at bed-(D) time Breathe in that natural (A) air Outside (D) natures (G) life of its (D) own I was young and (A) growing, without a (D) care I am old now, and (G) slowed down quite a (D) bit But I still enjoy that quiet (A) time And that country, (G) westerly (D) breeze I think of as Natural (A) Air that is truly (D) mine

Hello Mr V.G., I just listened to 'That Natural Air' and I particulary like the lyrics in this one. I can picture the small boy in his cover-alls on a hot summer day with all the windows and doors open for that country breeze. You have created a wonderful diary of your life through song. Have a safe and wonderful Memorial Weekend my friend! Rosie
