Good one Larry. Rather than piece of mind it's more like Boston laid a Smokin' on the Astros last night.

I still play that song. And in keeping with Eric...after you have stayed a while close the door lightly when you go.

I did not get what I wanted, even though I tried; nor did I get what I need.

Me and this girl tried to work it out, but instead she told me she's leaving home. I said, "You won't see me," but she said, "I'll be back again."

I wish I could say this was mine, but I stole it.

Despite getting great test results of A, B, B, A it seems that no employer will take a chance on me.

My 'heart of gold' broke when she left me for the 'man on the silver mountain'.

I shot the sheriff but I didn't shoot the deputy. Instead he hit me with his best shot. So, in a sense, I fought the law and the law won; and the only tears shed were the tears of a clown. So now I'm knock knock knockin' on heaven's door.

Great lines Tony. Not sure what Tears of a Clown you're referring to but Iron Maiden also did a song with that title 6 years ago. Written about Robin Williams.

Thanks Dru! Here is the tune I was thinking of...



Since I don't really listen to metal (my nephews did years ago, so I have heard some of it), I wasn't aware of The tune you are referring to. I know that some fingerstyle players do solo covers of a few Metallica tunes though.
