Our Land - Acoustic Original Song

TRUE story:

It was a rainy weekend. I had planned to go hunting in the badlands, but the rain ruined my plans! So had a few beers and grew a pair. Then I creeped down into the basement where I had never been before. I did this because the psycho neighbors that lived downstairs in the rented house we shared had finally moved away.

Down in the creepy, dusky basement on top of a lonely old shelf, I found and old broken guitar. As I inspected and attempted to repair it it, to my horror I found that It even had a old sock inside if it. NASTY!!!!

But, I glued that bad boy back together and
my glue job was holding ok. But I found I had to put the guitar in a weird assed hybrid Nashville tuning to keep the tension off the neck of the guitar so it would stay in tune!

The repair job held just long enough to record this video before it ultimately broke again, FOR GOOD, LOL!

Well I pretty much had written this song a few days before but because of the precarious situation I was in with this guitar I had to button it up fast!

This song is about faith, current times, and the aftermath of an apocalyptic event...

LYRICS:

Let me tell you a little about the chosen one.
They said there would be only ONE!
Take a look in the mirror, tell me what you find?
It was YOU all along - And don't that blow your mind?

Oh yeah!

Another war for OIL ain't what we need!
Please don't let them kick off WW3!
Because this land belongs to YOU and ME!
This land was MADE for YOU and ME!

And we talk...so BOLD.
We stare right into their soul.
We'll share food - and we'll trade gold.
And well keep each other afloat!

Well you don't want to hear what the people say!
You can take your GMO's and run away!
You will plague OUR sacred lands NO MORE!
And you can check your acid raincoat at the door!
