Ian Tyson was a true Canadian Poet. We are fortunate to have another in Corb Lund. And, on what many might consider a minor point, I appreciate his ability to enunciate. Every word comes through, and that's no longer typical in the music industry. .
I said this on another one of his videos but I usually don't like country but I like this guy! he's good and it's good country music! reminds me of the 90's!!
huh, I didn't expect to see a new video of the song I was looking for, but I'll take it. Love the song Corb, keep at it. That last album was exceptional!
My sister's theme song...she has the best story about how she got baked on an edible when she came to visit and after some amount of suffering was somehow able to summon a massive thunderstorm. 🤣
Capo III [Intro] G A D G D [Verse 1] G El Viejo, friend of mine A D I think you left us just in time G They're outta vodka, no more wine A D I think you left us just in time [Verse 2] G You know I hate to see you leave A D But it ain't no secret you believed G You was meant for earlier days A D Wilder times and a freer range [Verse 3] G So old compadre Lord I know A D You was likely glad to go G I hope it's easier in time A D For those of us you left behind [Chorus 1] N.C. They ain't dealin' blackjack D G down at Stockmen's in Nevada anymore A And they'd wanna pay you six to five D and that ain't hardly worth playin' for D All's I seen was slot machines G from wall to wall the whole casino floor A Nobody hittin' seventeen D playin' against the dealer that's for sure [Interlude] D G A D [Verse 4] G Mi amigo, mon ami A D Elko blues, indeed G You know we did the best we could A D But the shine was off the wood [Verse 5] G We played up most all of your songs A D But with you and Don and Baxter gone G That sure leaves some boots to fill A D And I'm not sure we ever will [Verse 6] G But on a slightly brighter side A D The Outside Circle guys G They're still tearin' up the Star A D And Capriola's ain't that far [Chorus 2] N.C. They ain't dealin' blackjack D G down at Stockmen's in Nevada anymore A And they'd wanna pay you six to five D and that ain't hardly worth playin' for D All's I seen was slot machines G from wall to wall the whole casino floor A Nobody hittin' seventeen D and worse yet the Commercial's closed its doors A Nobody hittin' seventeen D G A D G D playin' against the dealer rest assured [Outro] N.C. G El Viejo, friend of mine A D I think you left us just in time
I got your name off a tee shirt worn by Chase Rice in a recent video clip on UTube. Thanks for the laugh! I think your musical genre is more folk than country, though😂 💙! enjoyed it immensely. May I ask for 🙏🏽 for myself and my 🐕🦺 as we both continue to fight for life? Thanks in advance either way.❤ "El Viejo" (for Ian & all of us ).
