I have post it in "collaboration"...but may be it s better in "general discussion?"


Here is I like very much this song of the young person Josh Turner ( A giant in spite of these 22 years)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZubX_6oriw


But my English is too low and I need help to have the lyric of this song in English to play it

I like very much this folk jazz and if somebody can also help me has to find the chords...

Has t he no English-speaking member able to making me a statement of lyrics of this song.

Actually I look for the  guitar chords by audio and visual recognition ,  the tone is C

... But I need words, (not able to understand all the words by myself!) thank you for your help

Greetings my foreign friend.

This young man is indeed a very nice singer and guitarist, he has a very strong feel for such a young age.

These are the chords below.

Intro
| D-11  | C#b5  ||
Verse
| D-7   | C#7   | CM7  C6  | E/B  E7  |
| A-7   | C9sus  C9  | F     | D7/F#   |
| C  F  | C   A7   ||

I'm not gonna transcribe all of the lyrics but the general gist is that he's no longer in love with this girl. They had some good times but she's just not rocking his world these days. No matter what she does he just doesn't love her anymore.

Maybe she didn't put out?
Personal hygene?
Maybe he's questioning his sexuality?

What ever it is, he doesn't love her anymore.
Warmest regards,

Captain Jimbo

I doubt that anyone will want to take the time to transcribe all of the lyrics for you. It's a lot of work.

Perhaps if you make your best effort at transcribing the lyrics yourself and then post the results here, others will chip in to help you with the lines that you find difficult, or offer corrections on what you've transcribed.

Also, I did a quick search and, although I couldn't find the lyrics, I found another recording of the song by Josh & Larkin. You might find the lyrics clearer and easier to understand on that version. I only found a short sample of the recording, so you'll have to buy it if you want the full song. It's only 99 cents.

Here you go my French friend. I listened twice and just typed as he sang so there might be a mistake or two but this is very close. You'll have to figure out where the verses and choruses are plus the phrasing and timing.

I Love You Too by Josh Turner:

I know that you think that I love you
and there was a time when that just might have been true
but nowadays well I just can't seemed to say I love you too
days we had well they weren't half bad this I grant you
but now they're past days gone and there's nothing you could do
no there's not a single way that you could make me say I love you too
well I wouldn't even mind if you went and tried to find a man elsewhere
Cause girl I promise that happiness is not,  oh no it's not where you are now
and I completely understand how you would find this situation to be unfair
but going on like this is one thing I cannot  allow
I know that you think that I love you
and I 'm sorry cause either way this situation well it's going to leave you blue
but I've already tried and I just can't lie and say I love you too
oh yes I've already tried and I just can't lie and say I love you too

Thank you Guitar64 foryour advice(councils) and your answer

I know  that represents a lot of work and time and for it,  I thank quite particularly Farrel Jackson who gave me  lyrics
....And thank to Captain Jimbo for the guitarchords
It is very moving that somebody is 15 000 km from one (I live in Savoie(Savoy) in the Alpes France) makes the effort to answer

Farrel I shall pay back to you that occasionally!  may be a common song?

Thank you my new Californian friend

songcrafter is great

For Farrel Jackson , Captain Jimbo and Guitar 64...but others guys if you are interested

Its will be my first collaboration work

Needs it to post it in other place ?(collaboration?)

First thing Josh Turner authorize the cover ofthis song:

question on You tube:
man this song is so nice, I'am gonna to learn it for sure , do I have the permission to cover it?
 ...he said
Agreed, man. Agreed.


With the informations gave by  Captain Jimbo for the chords, and Farrel Jackson for the lyricsI was able to make this chord diagram (may be somme mistake) and the MP3 project with Band In Box

Well on I could make this cover  by putting the singing on the backtrack of BIAB but I would prefer to make this song in collaboration with one or two truth guitars, a true bass,  may be others  instruments  for the instrumental chorus ...and a true singer  :)
,   Here is the MP3 backtrack BIAB and in attachment the chords diagram

Hey man,
That's really nice. How did you record that?
You'll have to excuse my luddite fumbling of music technology.
Band in a box? I've often fantasised about locking a drummer up gimp style in my closet, but in my heart of hearts, I've never really been into caged animals. A whole band in a box sounds quite oppressive by comparison.
However, I would imagine that it would be one godamned seriously tight band after spending such time in close quarters. One thig that I have learned in the world of music technology is that a humanise knob does not actually facilitate a proper swing feel.
I'm very new to this whole BR-800 thing but I'd be happy to lay down some chords and a low down bluesy jazz type solo if you like. How does one go about these collaborations of which you all speak?
Warmest regards,

Captain Jimbo

Hello Captain

veryd good yours joks about Band in a little box  :) :) :)

In reality,  Band inBox of PG Music is a good solution to make instrumental bactracks more realistic than for example midifile because they are in fact musical sentence played by real musicians (and rather sizes), with real instruments.
You can see the site of PG Music for démo here:

http://www.pgmusic.com/bbwin.realtracks.htm

 We can choose at first a style,  and then to determine a harmonious grid and then to put the instruments which we want

Well on that is not worth the musical live truth but to work or make small models it's perfect..

As for the work in collaboration I have never made it, it would be the first one,  but I suppose that it works like that;

- One of member(limb) makes one beginning of project for example guitar and voice, it sends the MP3 and of other one members add a bass, a piano, voices choirs,  , your  grandmother who play bagpipe.Your big mother  the cat of the neighbor which mews. or others things... ;)
