Who Am I? by Carl Sandburg
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of
universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I
reach my hands and play with pebbles of
destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs
reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive
in the universe.

Take It Where You Find It
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light

Sultan’s is majestic, for sure.

MK’s playing is so distinct that it separates him from every other guitar player on the planet and I never get tired of listening to him. And, he’s a genuinely humble and entertaining man.
If the police are dismantled , then who will enforce the anti-gun laws?
Let me put it this way: on that day, there will be no protection for criminals.
Not to take anything away from his playing, but a solo is unaccompanied. Or has the definition changed?

Excellent question and precise analysis. Five stars.
Win, win for America. It is called self government. On a local level it has been the only *government* that has actually worked. Anywhere.
I posted this before.
It is a better, clearer version.
And it has Clapton too, though in a subordinate position.
You can thank me later.

He can make it cry and sing.
Thanks, ghost.
The first time I hear MK and DS on the radio, I thought wow, nice to hear an obvious Chet Atkins influence in modern rock/pop. There are certain textures and tones only possible with finger picking.
I think the solo from Telegraph Road is better.
I agree. Telegraph Road was awesome. Primarily because it built upon his awesome original solo on Sultan’s
