Feelin the Love, or lack there of, on VD

I found out about this guy from my buddy Adam. He is the most amazing ukulele player I have ever heard. Not that I have heard that many. Since this is somewhat of a sad song I'll send it out to all those sad and lonely on valentine's day. George Harrison should make you a little happy though :) He does not sing, but you can sing along if you'd like. I've put the lyrics below:

While My Guitar Gently Weeps (Although, in this instance, feel free to substitute "guitar" with "ukulele")

I look at you all see the love there thats sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps
I dont know why nobody told you how to unfold your love
I dont know how someone controlled you
They bought and sold you.

I look at the world and I notice its turning
While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake we must surely be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps
I dont know how you were diverted
You were perverted too
I dont know how you were inverted
No one alerted you.

I look at you all see the love there thats sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
Look at you all . . .
Still my guitar gently weeps.

FUN TRIVIA FACT FOR THE DAY: Did you know that the ukulele is the only musical instrument invented in America! leave it to Hawaii.

Happy Valentines Day everybody! Enjoy the jam session!
