Estoy mirando al cielo con un nudo dentro de mi garganta Soy tan verde como la hierba en cada canción que escribiste Bueno nena, me temo que lo perdí antes de que supieras que lo tenía Cajas llenas de polvo caen del ático Tiré mi amor al océano y lo encontré en la arena Y necesito que me digas quién soy. Tengo años de trabajo y me estoy quedando sin herramientas. He estado adorando las palabras de los tontos cansados cansados Nos paramos en la acera tirando plumas al castillo. Ten cuidado con lo que deseas, nena, te ves un poco frágil Y echarán humo en tu dirección hasta que no sepas dónde estás parado. Y necesito que me digas quién soy. Nunca me interesé tanto por nadie Nací con una bomba dentro de mis entrañas. Pasas tanto tiempo buscando que nunca lo ves realmente. Necesito que me digas quién soy. Bueno nena, me temo que lo perdí antes de que supieras que lo tenía Solo quería una cosa y puse mi fe en la magia. Tiré mi amor al océano y lo encontré en la arena. Necesito que me digas quien soy.
John, how is it you were here at our very own Cain's Ballroom and never ever have I heard of you?? I want more and more and more!! God bless RUclips because I am somewhat of a shut-in and would never have been blessed to hear you otherwise! Please continue your magic and music!! God Bless
John Moreland: A friend just turned me on to your stuff a couple of weeks ago. This is the first one I learned. You may as well have written this about every relationship I have had for the last 27 years. Three of them. A failed 20 year marriage then two girlfriends. For what it's worth I would do the 20 year marriage again before the wasted 7 years on girlfriends that I Needed To Tell Me Who I Am..
LOL. We should compare notes then! I live by the motto, "That which doesn't kill me makes me stronger," cause a lesser man would've offed himself by now had he experienced half of what I've been through. But I'm a glutton for punishment. A-hahaha. Or just plain nuts. Like the blues tells it... if'n I wouldn't have no bad luck I'd have no luck at'll. That's me, sure 'nuff. And you bein' my big brother, oh yeah, we're in the same camp fer sure!!!
I'm staring at the sky with a lump inside my throat I'm as green as the grass in every song you wrote Well babe, I'm afraid I lost it before you knew I had it Boxes full of dust are falling from the attic I threw my love into the ocean and I found it in the sand And I need you to tell me who I am I got years worth of work and I'm running low on tools I've been worshiping the words of weary worn out fools We stood out on the sidewalk throwing feathers at the castle Be careful what you wish for, babe you look a little fragile And they'll blow smoke in your direction til you don't know where you stand And I need you to tell me who I am I never cared for anyone so much I was born with a bomb inside my gut You spend so long looking that you never really see I need you to tell me what to be Well babe, I'm afraid I lost it before you knew I had it I only wanted one thing and I put my faith in magic I threw my love into the ocean and I found it in the sand I need you to tell me who I am .

Unreal. JM is one of the most, if not the most, underrated songwriter songwriters today. I love him acoustic solo but him playing the tele with a whole band is awesome. His songs translate real well to a complete four piece. Thank you John if you ever read this.
John, I love your music. The words hit me right in the heart. You are a one of a kind guy, amazing, talented I could go on and on. Keep it up.
GReat song bro! Epic!
Estoy mirando al cielo
con un nudo dentro de mi garganta
Soy tan verde como la hierba
en cada canción que escribiste
Bueno nena, me temo que lo perdí
antes de que supieras que lo tenía
Cajas llenas de polvo caen del ático
Tiré mi amor al océano
y lo encontré en la arena
Y necesito que me digas quién soy.
Tengo años de trabajo
y me estoy quedando sin herramientas.
He estado adorando las palabras
de los tontos cansados cansados
Nos paramos en la acera
tirando plumas al castillo.
Ten cuidado con lo que deseas,
nena, te ves un poco frágil
Y echarán humo en tu dirección
hasta que no sepas dónde estás parado.
Y necesito que me digas quién soy.
Nunca me interesé tanto por nadie
Nací con una bomba dentro de mis entrañas.
Pasas tanto tiempo buscando
que nunca lo ves realmente.
Necesito que me digas quién soy.
Bueno nena, me temo que lo perdí
antes de que supieras que lo tenía
Solo quería una cosa
y puse mi fe en la magia.
Tiré mi amor al océano
y lo encontré en la arena.
Necesito que me digas quien soy.
I pick the 6 string and let my feelings out. This man's singing and songwriting i recently found out about. Wow;
God I love your music, John. Thank you, sir. Thank you!
John, how is it you were here at our very own Cain's Ballroom and never ever have I heard of you?? I want more and more and more!! God bless RUclips because I am somewhat of a shut-in and would never have been blessed to hear you otherwise! Please continue your magic and music!! God Bless
Man I got chills before it even started. This is the stuff.
Your great John!! Wish the rest of em would wake up!! I share as much as I can to get your name out there!! GOD BLESS THE BA!!!

Skeeter, I took your advice. I'm here right there with ya, big brother.
12-string Jack
Ooohhh...I don't know I'm a good one to be taking advice from brother. My life's a train wreck!

I'm as green as the grass in every song you wrote
Well babe, I'm afraid I lost it before you knew I had it
Boxes full of dust are falling from the attic
I threw my love into the ocean and I found it in the sand
And I need you to tell me who I am
I got years worth of work and I'm running low on tools
I've been worshiping the words of weary worn out fools
We stood out on the sidewalk throwing feathers at the castle
Be careful what you wish for, babe you look a little fragile
And they'll blow smoke in your direction til you don't know where you stand
And I need you to tell me who I am
I never cared for anyone so much
I was born with a bomb inside my gut
You spend so long looking that you never really see
I need you to tell me what to be
Well babe, I'm afraid I lost it before you knew I had it
I only wanted one thing and I put my faith in magic
I threw my love into the ocean and I found it in the sand
I need you to tell me who I am

This song is me. I found a song that describes me. Wow. This musician, haven't fallen in love with some music in quite awhile. But wow. Just in love.
The entire audience is hanging on every word he sings, I don't know anyone else who can do that.
dmeenkster soul

amazing beyond words😍😍😍
Dude, let me help u. For free
The one person who didn't like this doesn't have a soul.
John Moreland is like the best ribs I've ever had, then John Calvin Abney playing with him is like pouring on the best barbeque sauce I've ever had.
Still don’t know who I am.
Wonderfull!
He is the pure authentic...….
Damn, man! I cannot get enough of your music! Would absolutely love it if you put out a live album..
Same here.
This should be on Mtv. This is real music!!! Thanks John!
This song breaks my heart 💜💜💜
The one dislike is probably just a hardcore acoustic fan ; )
This definitely ain't no Fl/Ga line bullshit. Keep up the good work, sir.
You can say that again. They're the worst about using a clap track in country music, which is a rap & R&B sound. It's garbage in country music.
Awesome. Thank you.

Shit got real right dare
THE STORY OF MY LAST 65 YEARS. THANKS
is it me or is the bass player in a different area code at the beginning of this song 🙄
He was hitting the sound guy up for more volume.
@@SkeeterMcGraw Yeah, probably because he was going "is this the right key or not?"
