                  Lyrics coming from the heart. Is this right.. Jim is in Florida?

                  The melody of the notes is what expresses the art of music . 🙂 6stringerPete

                  It really is all about ”melody”. The melody comes from a language from our heart. Our heart is the muscle in music harmony. The melody is the sweetness that it pumps into our musical thoughts on the fretboard. 🙂 6 stringer Pete

                    Well done Jim, brought a smile to my face. Great song and a great rendition. It shines through that you love this song and it showed! In tune and solid finger picking to boot! Thanks you your performance!

                      Hey Jim,
                      I could just picture Waylon sitting in on harmony. What a great tune, one of my favorites. Nice!

                        Good one, Jim. Here’s a strange but true story: My great-grandfather was a genuine cowboy. He once owned the largest cattle ranch in Florida, which included much of Osceola County, and all the land where Disney World is located. Sadly, he lost it all around the time of the Great Depression.
