Country Jazz
I’m a jazzer who has moved out to the country Everything is so much quieter here
I used to run in circles in the rat race
With concrete jungle people everywhere
Now I play the music of the country
Just these three chords on my guitar
So I don’t have much use for all those flat 5’s
No more show off solos like a star
[B]
But every now and then I still am tempted
To play those runs and chords all very fast On instruments that look all old and dented But then that be-bop urge it seems to pass
I’m happy now just to play the country
My audience is happy as me
They don’t have to understand the music And who cares if they clap on one and three
interlude: pedal 2 and 4 || V7 | bIII7 | VII7 | bII7(shots) hold (hold VII chord for double to set up rhythm in Bb) to jazz solo section: rhythm changes double time
out verse:
The countryside is beautiful and natural
The city life is fast and cruel and blind
I didn’t mean this song to get so factual . . . but My truck broke down wife left and my dog died
