Written for an upcoming Blues competition as one of several songs being considered for the contest. I sprung this on my friend Chris, without warning last night and pushed the record button.

OMG! Another total masterpiece. I love the chorus on this so much. Total earworm for the day. Good luck with the competition. You’ve got a real winner here.
Too many rainy days lately, so what is a boy to do? Write a song!

I read all the lyrics before I had a chance to listen. Excellent poetry indeed. I wanted to know where you were finding that peaceful road. Somewhere north I’m guessing. Great melody and lovely arrangement. Another instant fav!!!

This is an answer to the question posed to me by Bethan Mathis. This is how I've been feeling this week. I'm okay. I've just come to the realization about the rhythm of life.

Right back at you .... "Been there, done that".
Sometimes I think that the more different we think we are, the more we're just the same, or at least our situations seem similar.
I guess that's the long way of saying that I can relate to your song.
Sometimes I channel my anger into a song.
TRAIL OF TEARS

CHORUS - Well, the trees don’t grow
And the grass don’t grow…
Very moving, and thought provoking.
I think it's adaptable to all types of singing styles too. For example, I can see myself playing this on my acoustic guitar.
a new song finally came out of my head .....
Here's the lyrics:
Numbers spinning ‘round my head
like bees around a hive
if I try to divide them
they only multiply
even if I round them up
or try to find their root
colors swirling ‘round my…
new for you, for me, for my dogs, for the late night jogs, early morning coffee mugs...they say he had a real "dog" complex but I guess it was better than have a real god complex
come away, come away
away from trouble
away from care
come away, come away
away from sorrow
away from fear
may the cool wind find you
through a thousand thoughts unsaid
gather you in
weary day behind you
and you can lay your head…
This is "Hands Down" my favorite so far.
I love that image "May the cool wind find you ..."
And of course the Irish whistle ... well that just fills me with envy!
Music and lyrics by Brian Vaughn.
I shouldn't have to say this, but I can't stand this silence.
And I wonder if you know what i'm going through.
It seems way too common for words and acts to disagree,
But I expected more from you.
I told…
This is what the creative process looks like. The music, especially the guitar playing if unique and captivating.
The singing is different too. I think it's the phrasing that is catching my attention.
Well Done!
So I dropped the guitar into DADGAD tuning for the first time, threw a capo on the third fret, rifled off something nice, and sent it to Movement to Contact for his contribution, got it back, did some mixing...
Here is the result.

Another pretty song that brightened my day. Thanks Greg!
Sounding very good and fine slide work. Good job.

Do you ever listen to anyone's music but your own?
Leave it out Greg, we all struggle with songs, then you drop a gem like this, *#*@#*# or words to that effect. Love it.
Great song...really love the chorus! Amazing lyrics
Love it! Harmonies, catchy lyrics, guitar solos - this song has it all 👌
Gregg, Another gem. Keep em coming! JB
Gregg, pure genius without AI. Another Gem.
OMG! Another total masterpiece. I love the chorus on this so much. Total earworm for the day. Good luck with the competition. You’ve got a real winner here.
Beautiful song, Greg. I used to pick up agates growing up in Western Wisconsin, but none here in NW Minnesota.

Excellent song Roger. My Sister and nephew agree!
This would make some interesting background music. It really frees a person's mind.
Igor ... You have the touch.

Wow ... quite a contrast to your last tune. You certainly know how to catch my attention. This is great!
Very moving, and thought provoking. I think it's adaptable to all types of singing styles too. For example, I can see myself playing this on my acoustic guitar.
Nice bouncy beat with clear vocals. It's a winner!
Not usually my kind of music, but there is something about it that is intriguing. Nice Going!
I built up an appetite listening to "My Little Garden". I like this Folk Music Style a lot. Nice one Terry! Keep them coming.
Quite an image Roger! I wonder how many of us will be there to greet you when you get there? Nice swing to this song, and very relaxed.
I love it John! FIRST CLASS SONG "Plenty Greedy Bastards"
Great singing, Great Playing, and the tone you achieve on the whistle is incredible. One Fine Job!
You blew me away with this Lisa! Wow!
Finally ..... A Folk Song Around Here!

This one is good too, although, I think you hit the bullseye on your last version.
I like the sparse sound. Of course, I'm a sucker for just guitar and voice.
Another good one Roger!
