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!
This is a cool piano song from Costa's new "Unfamiliar Faces." If you are playing this
on piano it is best to play the bass note with the right hand and the full chord with the
hand in a syncopated rhythm.
(Notes: The little run he does at the end of the G chord is pretty simple. When playing
G chord with your right hand, instead of playing G/B/D you extend your pinky out to play
Then, quickly run your fingers from E to D to C to B and then land on the C chord again.
a little practice this should be no trouble.)

C
O Mr. Pit Mr. Pit Mr. Pitiful
G Am
Who let you down
G
Who let you down Who let you down
C
You still don’t believe You don’t believe You don’t believe
G Am
And your grievances show
G
When your soapbox unfolds
(Chorus)
C Dm F G
But please come down from that cloud you’re sitting
C Dm F G G/E G G/E G
On I don’t expect you to admit that you were wrong
C Dm
I just want to know how you’ve been
F G C
It don’t make me feel bad that were still friends
Dm F G
Mulling it over in my bed
C Dm F G
I hope that you see through your picket
C Dm F G Am
I hope that you see through your big yard and white picket fence
Am G D/F# F
To make amends
Am G D/F# F
And still be friends
Am G D/F# F
Still be my friend
G G/E G G/E
...and so on...
