Thanks for listening to this track... Of all the songs I've written (or should I say of all the songs that have written themselves through me), this one is my favorite.

This is probably my last track for this year's RPM Challenge (leaving it incomplete for 2011). I'm kind of worn out and not feeling super inspired this year and I sort of…
Outstanding track, Doug!... I couldn't even conceive of the kinds of sounds that must be in your head if this isn't it... You really are on a higher plane of music my friend.
The explanation for this is a bit long, so if you're just looking for the lyrics, switch over to "about" and click the "view more" box below.
So I'm eating fish and chips at an Irish restaurant waiting to play an open mic in Saratoga over at…
I truly apologize for the roughness of this song, but I'm testing to see if the best way to motivate myself to finish something off properly is to have something REALLY rough up here... So I can replace it QUICKLY with something done right.

Lyrics
Take the lift and your half way up....
Reach the top and your half way up...
You didn’t see your rise, and Lost your way.....
Looking down on the world your tears fall...
You Missed the Beauty of the climb.
And now you’re…
Had the blues in Alabama
Had the blues in Texas too
Had the blues all over
Now I 'm givin' em to you
And if you don't want em
You know what you can do
You wont find me I'm goin' ta run and hide away from you
Because I see trouble
Trouble…

Wow, brilliant! I don't really understand what Garageband is...is this you playing?
Oh such a beautiful song! I bet she loves it. Fabulous story too, I get the feeling it's all true, and your kids are going to love it. Wonderful!
You do have such a great voice and this is another beautiful track.
A most enjoyable and beautiful love song.
Nice one and you got the girl to. That's great.
"A wild time is starting down at Kappa Phi... You haven't caught my eye... That might be a lie."
Nice one mate very cool. Very nice.
I like this. The guitar playing is excellent, and the lyrics work wonderfully. The vocals are first rate, of course. ER
Excellent collaboration!
So tender and warmhearted. Really a wonderful song.
Magnificent!! First class all the way.
Has an opening flavor of Nick Drake. Great song. Sweet collab
Beautiful! Great additions to the arrangement
Great duet. Nice California style folk.
lovely, touching. A nice song and excellent vocals / lyrics.
That last comment was me. Sorry forgot to log in.
Beautiful great track
Lovely work, Keith. Went with the strings then? Is this the final version?
A little rebalancing... Some arrangement starting at 2:00 or so... But same sweet little song and same incredible vocals from Sister Savage.
Thanks for listening to this track... Of all the songs I've written (or should I say of all the songs that have written themselves through me), this one is my favorite.

What a sound, Doug... Excellent work, this RPM effort!
Faved at 0:02. Damn. So good.
...And back again for this little slice of perfection.
Outstanding track, Doug!... I couldn't even conceive of the kinds of sounds that must be in your head if this isn't it... You really are on a higher plane of music my friend.
Outstanding guitar work again here. Perfectly arranged, performed, and recorded... Well done!
Outstanding!!! I can tell right from the start that this is going to be one hell of an album.
OUTSTANDING musicianship on this one, Colin!
Seriously Coin, this album is pure genius... Brings me back to when my little girls were even littler.
...And just back again to listen to this piece of healthy insanity... God those harmonies are outstanding!!!
Favorite line: "He used to be the queen of Peru."
Brilliant!!!

Great track, Doug!
Just back again to listen to this perfect little arrangement.
Hey, great to hear this one!
Ah... Good to hear this one again!
So good right from the start... And so true. This song is my new RPM anthem.
Don't know how I missed this one, Richard! Beautifully done!
Just back again to listen to this magnificent piece of work. Sooooo good.
Damn, that slide Acoustic Church slide guitar is outstanding.
