rick hale - uncle john lyrics
from the attic in the dark, you blew the dust off my guitar
where it was lyin’
you showed my fingers where to start, and when the shapes became too hard
i kept on tryin’
an’ when he left us he was bound for better things
i said i knew it all along
but before he was on the radio, playin’ all my favorite songs
he was just my uncle john
he used to play the music loud, to an imaginary crowd
that he was dreamin’
from the bedroom on the floor, he don’t imagine anymore
but they’d be screamin’
an’ all the rich kids in the good seats sing his praise
but he can’t hear me from the lawn
but before these strangers fill the place, shoutin’ out their favorite songs
he was just my uncle john
i wish that i could have a movement to myself
if i could ever reach that high
i think we’d talk about the stories he would tell
and how his music changed my life
in the spotlight of the bar, i play his songs on my guitar
and they remind me
of the p-ssion and the joy, of that 14 year old boy
that’s still inside of me
and all the locals know my name now
and the words to every song
but before i ever walked out on the stage, where the folks could sing along
he was just my uncle john
