CHAPTER VI

lyrics

When you go deep down in the river
You’ll find a stream that flows
Down to a lonesome ocean, behind that golden door

The wear and tear of a lonesome life
Brings sadness to your soul
But clear water rests, my son, behind that golden door

The sacred one is calling
And so your hands must reach
For the grace and the virtuous dying of those who come and preach

So take your flowers with you
And pray those Gods are fair
And that rabbit’s foot is magic and know the when and where

When you go deep down in the river
You’ll find a stream that flows
Down to a lonesome ocean, behind that golden door

The vines are tall and song is gold
The pines are falling fast
The river now is running slow but go for it won’t last

A red wing in the desert
Horses in a storm
Blue eyes keep on watching from dunes so long forlorn

So take your flowers with you
And pray those Gods are fair
And that rabbit’s foot is magic and know the when and where

about

Guilherme Boisson Rio De Janeiro, Brazil

I learnt how to play the guitar twice. First from my grandpa, then from the records of Townes Van Zandt.
"Pick it!" That's what I always heard. And that is how I got the blues.

I guess one could call the music I make folk music. For me it's an attempt. I hope it gets to you. I hope you find something in it. And if you do, share it, pass it on.

Tnks, friend. And remember: "To live is to fly."
