Lyrics:
I want you to love me
That's all I want from you
I want you to love me
One day
I know I'm a peasant
Dressed as a princess
But that doesn't mean you have
To take my clothes away
If I could show you
Some happiness
Then I would feel
Like a real princess
That to me would be success
My baby
I seen you dancin'
A natural beauty
You make this dive
Seem sublime
You really get
To the heart of the music
You're the poetry of time
If there's a method
To writing a song
How come I'm getting it wrong
You write the beautiful songs
Baby
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon baby
Take my hand
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon show me
To the love land
Can this really happen
In this day and age
Suddenly
To just turn the page
Like walking on stage
My baby
That's all I want from you
I want you to love me
One day
I know I'm a peasant
Dressed as a princess
But that doesn't mean you have
To take my clothes away
If I could show you
Some happiness
Then I would feel
Like a real princess
That to me would be success
My baby
I seen you dancin'
A natural beauty
You make this dive
Seem sublime
You really get
To the heart of the music
You're the poetry of time
If there's a method
To writing a song
How come I'm getting it wrong
You write the beautiful songs
Baby
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon baby
Take my hand
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon show me
To the love land
Can this really happen
In this day and age
Suddenly
To just turn the page
Like walking on stage
My baby
Today is a Led Zeppelin kinda day in the guitar gods week. This is one of my favorites of theirs. Love the guitar solo and the tempo / style changes.
This is from my dog's favorite Pink Floyd album, Animals. Whenever I play it, he barks at the dog, pig and sheep sounds on the album. 
One of my all-time faves.This is from my dog's favorite Pink Floyd album, Animals. Whenever I play it, he barks at the dog, pig and sheep sounds on the album.
When my dog was a bratty little puppy we used to play Thelonius Monk's Straight, No Chaser and it would chill him right out. He'd go to sleep in front of the speakers.
Today's entry in the Cult of Awesome Guitar Greatness........Living Colour! This is from their last album so its a newer tune. Great main riff. Vernon Reid is killer \w/
I've seen these guys several times live. Always a great show. Their 25th anniversary Vivid tour last year was awesome. They actually released the Boston show I was at as a live album
Just got tickets to see them on 11/30/2014. Will be an excellent way to wind up the Thanksgiving Weekend!
Closing out this week's theme of guitar greatness is my favorite track from the greatest of them all.........I give you Jimi Hendrix.
I continue to burn the midnight lamp..........
