Heart Of Life - John Mayer - Acoustic Cover by David Carr

My try at this wonderful song.
For me this song is about failing to reach your own goals, and then having a friend comforting you with saying - It's allright because the heart of life is good. A Good song to have these uncertain times. For my sister, Hanna.

Lyrics:

I hate to see you cry
Lying there in that position
There's things you need to hear
So turn off your tears and listen

Pain throws you heart to the ground
Love turns the whole thing around
No, it won't all go the way, it should
But I know the heart of life is good

You know it's nothing new
Bad news never had good timing
Then the circle of your friends
Will defend the silver lining

Pain throws your heart to the ground
Love turns the whole thing around
No, it won't all go the way, it should
But I know the heart of life is good

Pain throws your heart to the ground
Love turns the whole thing around
Fear is a friend who's misunderstood
But I know the heart of life is good

Nice cover well done Hey dude can you tell me wat strings are you using? name me the brand and model and gauge as well,,thanks..

[davidcarr90]

at the time of this recording i believe i was using elixir 12's. not sure of the model but they clearly stated it was for steelstringed guitars. they cost a little bit more than average. but it was worth it.

[SexyChalupa]

you're brilliant. if only more people played like this.

you definitely appreciate great music, especially soul and the blues.

you've got good influences in SRV, Hendrix and John Mayer.

keep up the good work, throw in a SRV cover if you get the chance.

you, my friend, have a new subscriber.

please get big, the world could use musicians like you.

[davidcarr90]

Thanks alot for your friendly words! They mean alot! It's nice to hear that you can hear influences in my playing. I've actually got hendrix tattoed on my arm. I might cover Pride and joy if that works for you?
