Hey Jerry!
Another song request! Bleecker Street from the same album. I seem to remember that it has a pretty finger picking intro, and the chords don’t seem too complicated-a far cry from Still Crazy or Something So Right!!
Jerry says
It’s not far away. Number 36 on the to-do list.

Jerry! I am so excited that you worked out more S&G. Just bought a few more songs by S&G. A Poem on the Underground Wall-remember it from Parsley Sage Rosemary and Thyme. Old Friends, and The Dangling Conversation. Also got Peace Like a River.
I figured these out for myself. But am sure my versions will be immeasurably enriched by your interpretation. Can’t wait to unpack the instrumental interlude in Peace Like a River-which I am sure you figured out.
Got America long ago-and am unsure about the “Laughing on the bus..” I just strum Fmaj7 and Cmaj7 for that (same chords on many songs on Bookends (Old Friends, Punky’s Dilemma (Ah South California..) at laeast on the versions I have taught myself! SO I have no purchased all your S&G songs-and will likely buy anything else you work out.
Hey thanks Jerry-really appreciated.
