Song For Ted (guitar and vocal only)

Song For Ted
Written and perform by
Dan D. Dirges
cool and dark dan samples

Come gather round people a story I`ll tell.
About a man from the great northwest.
A kind stranger was he with a heart of gold.
He took me in from the cold.
As the wind howled and rain came down
Heavy all throught he night.
I was lucky to say
Ted was a friend of mine.

We stayed out all night drinking beer by the fire.
Down by the Spokane river.
Singing some songs and telling some lies
Till the sun rose up in our eyes.
Now the sound of a train in the night
Makes me feel so alone
But I was lucky to say.
Ted was a friend of mine.

He died on Christmas morning
As the snowflakes softly fell.
Two Angels came and carried him away
And I never saw him again
And the sad season came and it went
And the bleak winter ended
But I was lucky to say.
Ted Was a friend of mine.
