Bones / 4 Strings / Willy Tea Taylor

my lord won’t save my soul, i’m slipping to the bottom, wearing out the floor / my lord won’t save my soul, just looking at the quiet world, stirring up a war / tomorrow may never know if you’d be staring down the barrel or picking up the phone / ENSURE THERE’LL BE MORE IN STORE  / ENSURE THERE’LL BE MORE IN STORE / tomorrow will never know if you’ll be staring down a barrel or just picking up the phone / my lord won’t save my soul he’s been looking at the bad world and laughing at you all! / ENSURE THERE’LL BE MORE IN STORE  / ENSURE THERE’LL BE MORE IN STORE / HE COULDN'T TAKE IT ANY MORE / ALWAYS WHAT IS MADE IS DESTROYED / ENSURE THAT THERE’S MORE IN STORE  / ENSURE THERE’LL BE MORE IN STORE

More In Store

I've always loved the Ray Charles version of this song (written by Eddy Arnold and Cindy Walker). This cover version was originally recorded for the Tools of the Trade sessions last year. We recorded a few extra songs and I'm just getting around to finishing them off. Phil Santilli on drums, John Short on bass, Duane Wagner on organ and piano, and I'm playing the guitars (my Gibson ES-339 and a lap steel).  

You Don't Know Me

For all my friends on SoundCloud, love and peace guys x

Lyrics:
Just when you think its over, someone smiles and says
Over here, come on over and on my shoulder rest your weary head
there's room by my side, you can sit down and cry, cause i've been where you are
and a friend is a friend even though you've never met before

Just when you think things are darkest, someone lights a little candle and says
Walk towards me know, dont be frightened and we can sit and talk all day
there's room by my side, you can sit down and cry, cause i've been where you are
and a friend is a friend even though you've never met before

and thats how i met you, my shoulder, my light in the darkness
and i have to say thank you for calling me to be your friend
there's room by my side, you can sit down and cry, cause i've been where you are
and a friend is a friend even though you've never met before

This is a Blaze Foley tune I recorded a couple of weeks ago. 

Foley was born Michael David Fuller in Malvern, Arkansas, but grew up in Texas. He performed in a gospel band called The Fuller Family with his mother and sisters. After leaving home, he performed in Atlanta, Chicago, Houston, and finally Austin, Texas. He was close friends with Townes Van Zandt. (from Wikipedia)

I used a Dan Brooks custom B & B squarenck maple resphonic guitar, Martin D-18 Authentic, The Loar 600VS mandolin & Fender  Squier Classic vibe bass.
