The Jazz Player
The Jazz Player
Bm7 A7 DM7
Modulation into a high C
Calluses on fingers
Sliding up the fret board.
The chorus:
BM7 D7 GM7
So on,
Improvisation
Never really gets old.
The bass player launches into a familiar tune,
I smile
In guitar
Octaves are my style
And Wes Montgomery is my main man.
The saxophone wails
Jazz
Is all about
Freedom of expression.
We all took little steps
To get to giant steps.
One man stands up and leaves
The expression on his face,
Tells us he doesn’t understand it.
But we couldn’t care less.
Music
Is our only audience.
