Southern Summer Soul

[Intro] [Warm acoustic guitar strumming starts] [Bluesy dobro slide guitar enters with a sweet twang] [Drums and bass drop into a lazy, heavy rock groove] [Verse 1] The twilight is long and the shadows are deep The rest of the country is falling asleep But out in the meadow we’re starting the fire The music is rising and lifting us higher [Instrumental Break] [Long soulful dobro slide guitar solo over the steady beat] [Acoustic guitar keeps a thick, rhythmic backing] [Verse 2] We pour out the spirits and pass them around Our boots are now stamping the dry summer ground No clocks on our wrists and no rules on our mind The sweetest relief that a person can find [Instrumental Break] [Extended electric guitar solo with a warm overdrive tone] [Bass guitar plays a deep, groovy melodic line] [Verse 3] So toast to the freedom and toast to the night The midsummer moon is a beautiful sight The cold days are gone like a ghost in the wind The best time of life is about to begin [Instrumental Break] [Epic instrumental jam session] [Dobro and electric guitar trade bluesy licks back and forth] [Drums build up a steady, pounding crescendo] [Verse 4] The birds start to whisper, the sun starts to rise But we’ve still got wildness right here in our eyes We sing for the summer, we sing for the day Before the sweet magic just drifts far away [Outro] [Vocals stop and the band takes full control] [Dobro plays a long, crying final solo] [The music slowly fades out with a heavy drum beat] [End]
