Dying Day - guitar chords and comments
Lyrics without distraction HERE
I was printing stickers - a rather noisy operation - when my ears started to flicker. The radio was playing a really catchy tune, so I closed down the machine and listened. 20 seconds later I was stomping my feet and clapping my hands. I didn't get the artist's name, neighther the title of the song. I googled the phrase "how these days grow long" and found Brandi Carlile on You Tube - performing live and unplugged, in several versions. Then I closed down the printing house and went home for serious work :-D and 3 hours later I had it covered.
The song is written by Tim Hanseroth, who together with his twin brother Phil usually forms the line up for Brandi. It was played in concert more than a year before they finally recorded it on "Give up the Ghost"(2009), usually introduced as "How These Days Grow Long". Why they changed the title to "Dying Day" is incomprehensible. However, I don't fiddle too much with this song. I simply play it. Often.
Both twins write songs, and leave them with Brandi. A very good idea. Together, they are dynamite.
