Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
I've been having a little problem recently
Bb A Dm
Which is quite disturbing musically
Bb A Dm
Involving a semi-tonal discrepancy
Bb A Dm
Vocally and Instrumentally
Gm A
You see musicians of different varieties
Bb A Dm
Prefer playing in particular keys
Bb A Dm
And singers too treat preferentially
Bb A Dm
Those notes they tackle more proficiently
Gm A
Now, you, don't have to be a member of MENSA
Bb A Dm
To understand the depth of my dilemma
Gm A
The two elements of me favour two different keys
Bb Dm Gm Dm
Thus the rift between my fingers and my Tenor
I love nothing more than playing songs in F
Bb F
It warms the very cockles of my heart
Gm A
The problem is that F can leave me vocally bereft, you see
Bb F
I like playing in F Major, but I like singing in...
E7 A7
F Sharp.... F Sharp.... F Sharp...
Dm Dm Dm
I refuse to be beholden to my hands
Bb F
I don't see why my Larynx should give in to their demand
Gm A
I will not be forced to compromise my art
Bb F
So I'll keep playing in F Major, and singing in...
E7 A7
F Sharp... F Sharp... F Sharp...
Dm Dm Dm
I'll keep playing in F Major, but I'll keep singing in F Sharp!!!!
