# Bad Moon Rising   #Cover

Having fun playing around with my old electric guitar which I haven`t played in years!  Thought I would try this great song performed by Creedance Clearwater Revival and written by John Fogerty

Crazy on the new Guitar

CAPTAIN KENNEDY COVER

This is my Cover of Captain Kennedy for Chordie`s FSOTM for June.  A Neil Young song originally which is a very haunting song about a young mariner thinking about his father  who went to war.  
In my cover I sang it alot faster and alot more upbeat than the original.

Captain Kennedy

This is a song I wrote about a someone who was trying to get  over being hurt in a relationship and fall in love again. I was also inspired b/c I had just read a great book called Leaders by General Stanley McChrystal in which he portrayed the great courage of Martin Luther - hence the title - Here I Stand.
It is performed by Jim Cristaldi of Nashville.
Hope you like it.
Here are the lyrics


Here I Stand


[Em]There’s no place to hide to ease my pain, like [G] running down the road in a pouring rain
[D]embraced by the shadow of soft moonlight, l’m [Em] looking for someone to make this right
[Em]They tell me that wisdom comes over time, and [G]just have faith in this heart of mine
[D] I can’t wait no longer, I need help now, gotta [Em] find a love and sur[D]vive some[Em]how
.
Chorus
[Em]So here I stand, yeah here I stand, like [G]many years ago in a different land
[D]here I stand, yeah here I stand, oh I’m [Em]waiting for you to take me by the hand 
[Em]So here I stand, here I stand, just [G]looking for someone that can understand
[D]Oh here I stand, here I stand, I’m [Em]looking for love in the[D] promised [Em]land
.
Verse 2
[Em]Thinking about the day when the ache is gone, it’s the [G] dream that I’ve been working on
[D]I’ve searched my soul, looking for answers, I [Em]hear the music but I’ve got no dancers
[Em]Hoping for a lover to keep me warm, and [G]bring me some shelter from this storm
[D]There’s no telling what tomorrow brings, but [Em]I want to be somebody's [D]every [Em] thing
Bridge
[Am]so here I stand..........waiting for a sign
[Em] here I stand.........put your lips on mine
[Am]here I stand ............. needing something new
and [B7] here I stand............. waiting [Am]for a love like [Em]you

{c:solo through the chords again into the chorus...}

.
Chorus
[Em]So here I stand, yeah here I stand, like [G]many years ago in a different land
[D]here I stand, yeah here I stand, oh I’m [Em]waiting for you to take me by the hand 
[Em]So here I stand, here I stand, just [G]looking for someone that can understand
[D]Oh here I stand, here I stand,  I’m [Em]waiting for love in the[D] promised [Em]land


{c: outgo, little slower.... }

[D]Oh here I stand, here I stand,  I’m [Em]waiting for a trip to the[D] promised [Em]land
[D]Oh here I stand, here I stand,  I’m [Em]waiting for love in the[D] promised [Em]land

{c: Slow ending}
[D]here I stand, yeah here I stand, oh I’m [Em]waiting for you to take me [D]by the [Em]hand 

[D]  no matter how long it takes, I'm gonna [Em] stand til I’ve reached the [D] promised [Em]and.
