Dawn’s Daylight
by admin on Mar.29, 2012, under chords, Conjuring, Daniel, lyrics
LYRICS
Imagine a giant cosmic cue stick… getting ready to break
Imagine the moon… as cue ball
*Farewell*
… is the order for order
Quick at a flick
A new birthday cake
The continental plate border
Expansion… thank God for gravity
(God’s gravity holding it together… like never)
Limiting the severity
Of the impact of the break on humanity
It would happen that quick
It could happen that quick
Like a thief in the night
Giving a whole new meaning
To the dawn’s day light

ABOUT THE SONG
Capo 5
7th fret A string and G string
Chords move back and forth every other string
Recorded at Marsh Creek State Park on March 28, 2012
So… like… aaaah… I’ve been having this vision. An updated vision. For a while I had been foreseeing humans bringing on their own demise. Yes, that is now coming to pass; however, before we do hara-kiri and seppuku there is a chance of a divine intervention. Some of us humans will escape *The End* on a new space ship. The possibility exists for several different impact scenarios. In one episode, the moon is knocked out of orbit acting like a giant cue ball. When it slams into Earth, the impact causes the continental plates to move away from the center of our world. If you are lucky, your new space ship is a chunk of planet.
The scene in the dream is eerily familiar to Roger Dean art. In particular:

ABOUT THIS SONG
This song is about co-operation making beautiful music. The left side of my body plays the guitar. The right side of my body plays the keyboards. The vocals try to find middle ground that makes the whole greater than the sum of the parts.

Audience Appreciation Index
by admin on Mar.26, 2012, under Daniel, Tunesmith
It has been quite some time since I’ve posted about the Tunesmith Adventures. That doesn’t mean I haven’t been thoroughly enjoying the audiences. I have been. Though I would like to film more of the adventures, live subjects can be tricky.
Anyway, the audiences have been great. One of my favorite times was in the Spring of 2011. I was sitting at the corner of Ridge and Butler in Ambler, Pennsylvania. A school bus with tinted windows stopped at the light in front of me. I thought the bus was empty and just kept playing my heart away. All of a sudden, a bunch of the windows opened and all these kids started screaming and clapping. Wow! What a thrill.
Speaking of thrills, there seems to be an outbreak of people inspired to do *human tricks* whenever I start playing my jigging music. The Spring of 2012 has brought many a thrill seeker. Several interesting characters have co-operated in West Chester, Pennsylvania to bring great entertainment to the people. There is a guy that likes to do bike tricks over my head… and another fellow, Nick, who likes to do flips and jumps off the adjacent wall… sometimes it will just be a group of children ranging in ages from 2 to 92 that breakout into a spontaneous dance troupe. You all are more fun than Vaudeville, a sideshow, and a 3-ring circus all rolled into one.
I thank each and every one of you. From those who come up because they feel compelled to offer me money, to those who roll down their windows shouting out with a wave and a smile — THANK YOU!
Sincerely,
Daniel Brouse

LYRICS
Why not just say who you are
Is it really, really that hared?
Yes, once you go back that far
It becomes harder to find the word
A father’s daughter
Becomes the Maiden of St. Peter
Why they called her Dodo I don’t know
It really is that hard to say who you are
A piece from here. A piece from there.
Making up something unique
Is being unique to be a freak?
Why not just say who you are?
Have you ever even given thought
As in what you are not?
Are you really, really that far…?
I whisper to myself these thoughts
And, how it applies to the have’s and the have not’s
ABOUT THE SONG
Capo 1 Am / C add pinky to the 6th string 4th fret
Written on the boulders of Saint Peter’s Village in Pennsylvania. They say the giant boulders were pushed the furthest south by a proceeding glacier during the ice age. If you look through a birds-eye-view, you can see rocks that resemble huge dinosaur pieces.

LYRICS
Travelin’ back
There’s no need for a time machine
Travelin’ back
Rollin’ up the consciousness stream
Upstream
To the top of the hill
A southern breeze dodges the trees
Taking away the water’s chill
Livin’ heaven’s dream
The Season of Passion
Eve takes a bite from Cupid’s apple
The passion fruit blossoms
The wind will enable
And, scatter their sum some
Until the current brings us back
To where we started from

Joe’s Alibis For Hate
by admin on Mar.23, 2012, under chords, Daniel, lyrics
ABOUT THIS SONG
I made a deal with my co-author (God) that I would not sell out. So, I try not to. However, when it comes to songs that talk about hate or anger, it is tough. I’d prefer not to do these songs… because love is easier. Nevertheless, here it is — what someone’s hate toward us sounds like. Then, as the song progresses, the co-author and I make a suggestion to the hate-monger
instead of them just wearing a black hat, we ask them to crawl back and fade all the way to black. That way no one has to see how ugly. Hate, go away.
[i.e. A song about a hometown near you.]
Capo 2
F#m thing
Daniel — guitar, vocals, percussion, sound engineering
LYRICS
Yow! Spreading hate like a #%Ckin’ disease
You’ve got the mange, and you’re sporting fleas
Maggots, a leech… maybe some sort-of worm
Has eaten the heart right out of your heart
Now a shadowy, pitiful *lurking in the dark*
Creatures of slime eaten your warm
Fuzzy turned to slurm, harm, germ
[Spreading hate like a #%Ckin' disease]
Won’t you fade to black
You’re already better than half way (there)
No… no, no, please do not delay
Crawl back
Fade to black

Fourth Base .mp3 (free music download)
Though never a big league ball player, I do enjoy playing the All-American-Past-Time from time-to-time. The one thing that does come to mind is when a youngster is on base… and a bigger fellow hits a home run. You can yell, “Run to first.” You can yell, “Run to second.” You can yell, “Run to third.” However, if you yell, “Run home” you run the risk that the lad will do just that. Thus, the name of the song *Fourth Base*
ADDITIONAL LYRICS
You Might find it funny
But, you’re already home
There ya go strutting down the street
Always in search of your comfort zone
You don’t need to beat an easy feat
You’re never alone if you’re always at home
It’s within your reach… you don’t need to roam
You may find it funny, but you’re already home
No need to reach
No need to roam
Self teach
No moan
You might find it funny, but you’re already home
ABOUT THE SONG
Daniel — vocals, guitar

The inspiration for the guitar lick and the lyrics came from the vibe of the people passing by.

Play an Em on the 11th fret… and let your finger wander.

Get The Knack
by admin on Mar.20, 2012, under chords, Daniel, lyrics
LYRICS
I look for the meaning
In the meaning
But, I can’t always find it there
Elusive. Eluding…
Though it may be (to me)
So, too, I
So, too, I
I’m really hoping I get the knack
I hope and pray I get the knack
The proper range
The proper attack
Oh , Lord… filling my lack
So, too, I
Maybe what I was worried about is weigh, way bigger than you?
(So, I can let my shy side come through)
I’m really hoping I get the knack
