work in progress. i have the story about 2/3rds done, and the lyrics i have need alot of revisions, but now i just have to teach myself how to sing. this is just the rythm section, i may add some lead in after i learn to sing and record the lyrics
hi everybody, just a one man band. never played with other people yet, but i would love to play bass in a blues band. if any blues players are looking for a bass player let me know i know im not very good at guitar, but im learning, only been playing for a few months. you gotta admit though, for only playing a short amount of time, im not bad. gimme another year and ill be alright. ive been playing bass for about a year more than ive been playing guitar, so naturally im a little better at that.

Lyrics
G I been 15 miles down the road C But my car broke down G nowhere to go D C i got 15 miles more G down the road *strum 1 measures* G fellas drove up in a cadalac C saw the guitar on my back G stopped at the side of the road and said: D C come on man lets go G on down the road *strum one measure* G I hopped in the car, I said not goin far C they said shut up man just play that guitar G and you wont get hurt D C They pulled out a gun and it aint no fun G to play that guitar on the run G I thought for a minute *strum 1 measure* C came up with a song *strum 1 measure* G but it sure as hell aint that long D C I started to sing, let that guitar ring G I played them a song *strum 1 measure* G 10 more miles down the road C ran out of songs and they G dumped me on the side of the road D C I started walkin 10 more miles G on down the road *strum 1 measure* G fellas drove up in a hippy bus C said hey there man G whats the fuss D C i got 10 miles more to go, G on down the road G i hopped in the car said aint goin far, C they said we dont even know G where we are D we're so high that C we think we can fly G but it dont matter much cause were gonna die G The cops been chasing us C all the while, well they're G right behind us, driving in style D There after our pile C wont last another mile G gainst that police cruiser G I jumped out of the car, hands held high C the cops pulled over, said G reach for the sky D I said hey there man C i aint even high G all i wanted was go down the road G well five more miles down the road C got the cops pulled over G askin wheres the load D C looks to me like im in a real mess G with the cops pulled over in buffalo G I thought for a minute C maybe ill get a ride G so i started to say D we got a real big stash C and its right that way G only five more miles on down the road G ill show you where it is C if you let me go G right this way, just give me a ride
