The Civil War Song - Rodello's Machine

We came through Raleigh, now off to Gettysburg
I heard shots in the valley so I wrote you down these words

I travel in the 4th Regiment, my brother's by my side
Our captain banned our liquor, now I'm trying to get by

Miss Elizabeth, I can still see your dark brown eyes
Miss Elizabeth, this could be the last time I write
Yeah I'm nervous I can't lie, and if you don't hear from me
Tell my mother it's alright
I'm at the edge of the fight, and if you don't hear from me
I'll meet you in heaven when I die

My brother he's been sick, he's coughing through the night
He's got nine months of service till he's home to see his wife

Miss Elizabeth, I can still see your dark brown eyes
Miss Elizabeth, this could be the last time I write
Yeah I'm nervous I can't lie, and if you don't hear from me
Tell my mother it's alright
I'm at the edge of the fight, and if you don't hear from me
I'll meet you in heaven when I die

Rodello's Machine - The Civil War Song

This is a tune inspired by the strange noises (sky trumpets - google it:)) I heard in the night sky on 9.19.2013.  I recorded them and sampled them into the song.  Apparently they are phenomenon that happen all over the world according to youtube videos of people posting the same strange noises.  Also, I purposely put my guitar out of tune to try and match the feel and sound of them.

Sky Trumpets 2013 - Demo

Good friends playing music at the Coffee Corner Restaurant, Montpelier, about 7:30 AM before the work day starts. Not a bad way to start the day.
