This song was recorded at the last full concert for MHCP. It celebrates the years that Dave Hudson and Gary Poole played guitar together—teaching each other, listening and learning.
Lyrics
Duet (I Play Guitar With Him)
I play guitar with him
Hands move in unison
They dance across the wood
As if like one
Minds joined in four/four time
Harmonizing cherished lines together
Whenever we're together
I play guitar with him
He knows my ups and downs
He knows my minors and my turn arounds
He's more than just a friend
I play guitar with him
From Pullman cars to campus bars at midnight
From new chord books to tired looks near daylight
It's worked out alright
Sure the crowds have seen us
Though most the work between us
Just gets tucked away
On weekdays, where we'll play
Out of sight
I play guitar with him
Hands move in unison
They dance across the wood
As if like one
Minds joined in four/four time
Harmonizing cherished lines together
Whenever we're together
I play guitar with him
