About the song:
I was on the 7 train and saw some guy playing the song "friend of the devil". Great song....and I wrote the 1st verse of this, had it bouncing in my head for a wile, the finished it. I think it's got a nice sound to it...let me know what you think.
Instead of a chorus I "borrow" lyrics from other songs. I used parts of Walk The Line by Johnny Cash, Rocky Mountain High, and I Saw The Light.
Hear are the lyrics/chords if you wanna know:

The guitar man on the 7 line and his song then he sang mine
I had no change to give to him pulled out a twenty said play again
and I missed my stop to hear him sing but I heard that song again
I wonder what became of my guitar playing friend
Well he had no stage to play guitar but he played it like a star
he took some old familiar tune and he played it like something new
cus I know I heard that song before but it didn't quite sound the same
amazing what I heard from that guitarist on the 7 train
Well I bet he changed around the song but he made it all his own
They should put him on the radio of give him a TV show
And I still think back to when I heard the guitar man play his soul
So I sing this song for people every place I go

Love your music. Sick guitar. Did I hear "Queens College"? Shouldn't you be playing the Ramones? You should be fronting a band.

@TheSpider9000 Thanks...and built the guitar myself. Yup Queens College.... I like country music, don't know why but I do....guess I was born and raised in the wrong part of the country. I've been trying to start up a band. Problem is, hard to find any good musicians in this area that have my taste in music. Thanks for the comment. Glad ya liked the song.
