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 only found this song on YouTube, she hasn't released it on an album yet.
Still, it's a great song, and pretty simple to play. She plays it on banjo,
but the chords translate for guitar.
Capo 1
[Intro]
G - C x2
[Verse 1]
G
Too young, too thoughtless," I said to myself
C
with idealistic visions all perched on the shelf
D C
'cause I'm still hoping, waiting for you to come home.
G
May your snow capped mountains carry you far.
C
May they stand as protectors wherever you are.
D C
May you stay safe and happy all of your days.
[Chorus]
G
Oh James
C
Oh James
[Verse 2]
G
Maybe you're in love or hung up on another
C
And maybe you found a far prettier lover
D C
And maybe you'll paint her a picture like you did for me
G
You color your world with that Neverland smile
C
but it goes dark in pieces every once in a while
D C
and on my birthday I told you, "Dont worry, there'll be other days."
[Chorus]
G
Oh James
C
Oh James
x2
[Bridge]
G
Oooooooooo-ooooh-ooh
C
Oooooooooo-ooooh-ooh
Emi
Oooooooooo-ooooh-ooh
C
Oooooooooo-ooooh-ooh oooh
x 2
[Verse 3]
G
And I'll always be happy if you choose to call
C
or write me a letter saying all that you saw and
D C
how things have changed since our days there on Noxontown Pond
G
No don't be a stranger, no don't go too far
C
and though you love places that have lots of stars
D C
just know in the city, you'll always have a place to stay
[Final Chorus]
