- 'COVERS VOL. 1' - over an hour of my best guitar covers, now available on iTunes ( https://itun.es/gb/qq6O9 ) and now on Spotify, Amazon, Google Play, RDio and Deezer, too!
Hot on the heels of last week's SGS #001, here's the second cover of the series. 'Asssassin' by John Mayer - one of my favourite songs in existence, off what I have always believed to be John's best album - 'Battle Studies'. For me, this is his rawest, most honest and sincere record, and has affected me profoundly since I first heard it. I truly enjoyed playing this, and I hope you enjoyed my spin on what is a truly phenomenal piece of music.
Please give this video a share and a thumbs up if you enjoyed it - I cannot tell you how much a simple post on Facebook or Twitter helps me.
I'd also like to give a special mention PRS guitars for sending me this beautiful Hollowbody II to film with. What an outstanding piece of craftsmanship this is! I haven't gelled this well with a guitar in quite some time. I may start a petition to see if they'll let me keep it...
Thank you, as always, from the bottom of my heart for your continued support and encouragement. You are the reason I continue making music.
I work in the dead of night
When the roads are quiet, no one is around
To track my moves, racing the yellow lights
To find the gate is open, she's waiting in the room
I just step on through
You get in, you get done and then you get gone
You never leave a trace, or show your face, you get gone
Should've turned around and left before the sun came up again
But the sun came up again
Enter the morning light
To find the day is burning the curtains and the wine
In a little white room
Though I'm not alone, her head is heavy on me
She's sleeping like a child
What could I do
You get in, you get done and then you get gone
You never leave a trace, or show your face, you get gone
Should've turned around and left before the sun came up again
But the sun came up again
I was a killer, was the best they'd ever seen
I'd steal your heart before you ever heard a thing
I'm an assassin and I had a job to do
Little did I know that girl was an assassin too
Suddenly I'm in over my head and I can hardly breathe
Suddenly I'm floating over her bed and I feel everything
Suddenly I know exactly what I did, but I can not move a thing
And suddenly I know exactly what I've done
And what it's gonna mean to me, mean to me
I'm gone
I was a killer, was the best they'd ever seen
I'd steal your heart before you ever heard a thing
I'm an assassin and I had a job to do
Little did I know that girl was an assassin too
She's an assassin
She's an assassin
She's an assassin
She's an assassin and she had a job to do
