Hello everyone. I have been away for a long time and wanted to share this tune with you. This is the first take with a few mistakes and more than likely I will make some word changes. Written and tested on guitar first, but intended for double c openback. Would love to hear any comments.

Great song Leon, really heart felt lyrics and strong guitar playing. Liked Happy Birthday Mo' as well. you've gotta come over to one of our sessions and share your talents on guitar and of course banjo.

Thank you kindly guys. This was a quick demo and yes it will be played openback clawhammer or my style of claw hammer as I find claw very hard to do. I will edit a few words and add more to it when I find the time.
hey plucky maybe you can have a go playing for me as you rock at old timey claw stye.
