I got to sing this out at a Casino in front of about a couple hundred people, and the crowd went nuts! At least the women did! I felt on top of the World! I walked down a wide set of dope looking stairs to the floor while singing. This song always takes me back to that moment in time. Great Cover as usual Jeff Eagar!!! About now some woman is drooling. l.o.l.

[@mikecrews9112]

Happy birthday sir! This is the theme song of my life! You gave me the idea to sing this on MY 40th birthday if i make it to that year (January 31st 2030) I hope i look as good as you! Ill be 35 this January so i still got a few years to go but #IllBeAround!

OK, well, that was pretty great. You're voice is amazing and the guitar accompaniment was perfection. If I weren't 800 miles from Toronto, I'd make a point of being at an upcoming gig.

Very well done..good groove for this tune!!

[@Lighthazzles]

This is excellent, what a effortlessly natural soul voice you possess.

[@jeffeager]

Thank you! Any effortlessness comes from having sung this song three times a week for the past 10 years. It certainly didn't start effortless. Cheers!

[@LiveTheStreetLife]

I wish you could do a lesson on this one showing the chord voicing you’re using. It’s really well done and different from the way others do this song.

[@jeffeager]

Thanks. It's Emaj7 up on the 7th fret, then F#6 on the 9th fret (it's a basic A-shape barre chord, but hold down the 11th fret on the high e string to add that '6')
I loop that to sing over verses, then on choruses, add some E and F# bass notes , sometimes playing full Emaj7 and F#6 chords down on the bottom of the neck.
Hope that helps!

[@jeffeager]

Ah! And note I am tuned down a half-step. So you're hearing it all in Eb.

[@SteveWeaverIvyfield]

WOW! Great version! Check out Terri Wells version, too - she blows it away!!!
