Chords and Lyrics

[Verse 1]
G                  D     Am                      E
When I look in the mirror I can't believe what I see
G                   D         Am               E
Tell me, who's that funky dude starin' back at me?
G              D   Am              E
Broken, beaten down can't even get around
G                  D    Am                 E
without an old-man cane I fall and hit the ground
G                D     Am             B7
Shivering in the cold, I'm bitter and alone
 
[Verse 2]
G          D          Am          E
Excuse the bitchin' - I shouldn't complain
G                D        Am              E
I should have no feeling, 'cuz feeling is pain
G               D       Am     E
As everything I need is denied me
G                D       Am              E
And everything I want is taken away from me
G                   D      Am         B7 (quick transistion)
But who do I got to blame? Nobody but me
 
[Chorus]
B7                 C
I don't wanna be a old man anymore
D                             G                Em
It's been a year or two since I was out on the floor
Em                    Am                 D
Shakin' booty, makin' sweet love all the night
D               G                Em
It's time I got back to the good life
Em              Am7                   D
It's time I got back, it's time I got back
D               G                      Em
'n I don't even know how I got off the track
Em          Am       D
I wanna go back, yeah!
 
[Verse 3]
G                     D      Am              E
Screw this crap, I've had it! I ain't no Mr. cool
G               D    Am                 E
I'm a pig, I'm a dog, so 'scuse me if I drool
G                  D       Am                  E
I ain't gonna hurt nobody, ain't gonna cause a scene
G              D            Am          E
I just need to admit I want sugar in my tea
G            D           Am           B7
Hear me? Hear me? I want sugar in my tea!
 
[Chorus]
B7                 C
I don't wanna be a old man anymore
D                             G                Em
It's been a year or two since I was out on the floor
Em                    Am                 D
Shakin' booty, makin' sweet love all the night
D               G                Em
It's time I got back to the good life
Em              Am                    D
It's time I got back, it's time I got back
D               G                      Em
'n I don't even know how I got off the track
Em         Am        D
I wanna go back, yeah!

Once upon a time,

My siblings played a trick on me…

We were messing around in our house in San Clemente, then my brother had the gall to play dead on the living room floor.

My sister and oldest brother went along, saying “Oh no! He’s dead!”

Even as a 4-year-old, I knew they were just joking.

But they decided to double-down, “No, he’s really dead!!!”

I may have tried to poke his face or yelled in his ear or something…

But the looks on my other two siblings’ faces had me convinced — my brother had gone belly up.

So what does a gullible 4-year-old do?

I’ll tell you:

He remembers last week’s training at pre-school about emergencies, “Dial 911”

He rushes to the phone.

And before he can mutter a word to the operator…

Would you believe it? My brother came back to life!

A true miracle!

I still wonder to this day how they were able to save him so quickly…

Thank you, 911.

===

Now, you may know that I’ve done quite a bit of rap/hip-hop covers.

I’ve also done a lot of covers of songs and artists that are practically unheard of.

Why? I don’t know, I guess my ears are just different…

I simply choose to cover songs that I really like AND that I really like to play.

That’s where the passion and joy comes in.

With that in mind, here’s your first look at my newest cover, “Phone Numbers” by Dominic Fike: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DG24Cb47aVE&feature=youtu.be

Thanks and Enjoy,

Dylan

P.S. There’s something called ‘Sessions Live’ that I’m gonna try out. More details on that next time.

Chords and Lyrics

 
C
All of the DJs surly have taken a lesson
C                                                             C   C
Start talkin trash and I'll come with my smith and wesson
  (for the verses, just mess around on the A#/C but play C mostly)
A little competition comes my way
But it always winds up the same
The stone that the builder refused
Shall be the head cornerstone
 
Am                   C
Ain't nothing wrong    
Am                   C                  F             C           G
Ain't nothing right      and still I sit and lie awake all night
 
C
All of the DJs surely have taken a lesson                
                                                           C C A# C
Try talkin' trash and I'll come with my Smith and Wesson
 
Enough d.j.s come with enough, enough stylee
But when I bust my lyrics we all know it's wicked and wiley
 
Am                   C
Ain't nothing wrong    
Am                   C                  F             C           G
Ain't nothing right      and still I sit and lie awake all night
 
C
Oh yeah Rubadub blender
A new mixer, go,
I am the one DJ with enough flava ,it go
Here I go, here I'm come, heara the dubbed down d.j.
Lord have this grilled cheese
 
I mean ah, I am Jamican but I ain't no freak
I caught the man Ino with a ten pound bag of tweak
 
Hold on, though we call it ghost rider
Every time we see them you fulfill the danger
 
Am                   C
Ain't nothing wrong    
Am                   C                  F             C           G

Dreddy got a job to do, and we might fulfill his mission
C                              F                  G
To see his pain would be his greatest ambition       but ah,
C                              F                  G
We will survive in this world of competition
       C
Using guns and our ammunition 
 
bo,bo,bo,bo,bo,bo,bo
 
(This part is kinda wack but its the same as the last riff with a wha or something on it)
C                              F                  G
 
C                              F                  G (do this untill the end)
I won't wait so long mm,

Hey everyone,

Here’s your first look at my new cover of “D.J.’s” by Sublime: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YytDpRevEzY

As usual, I made another cover of a song that nobody knows…

(Though I know some of you like Sublime as much as me)

But this has recently become one of my favorite Sublime songs.

And to be honest, this is probably my favorite cover I’ve made so far.

Check out the original too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cy_KBFz115E

You’ll notice that I stayed pretty true to the original in terms of rhythm and harmonies.

Feel free to let me know what you think and give a like/comment/etc.

Thanks all,

Dylan

[Verse]
D                G
Early in the morning
D                G
Risin' to the street
D                   G
Light me up that cigarette 
        D                G
And I strap shoes on my feet
D                G
Got to find a reason 
   D                  G
A Reason things went wrong
D               G
Got to find a reason 
         D           G
why my money's all gone
D           G
I got a dalmatian 
D                   G
And I can still get high
D                 G
I can play the guitar 
          D           G
Like a motherfuckin' riot

Well, life is (too short), so love the one you got

I just get it off my chest

Never had to battle with no
   G

D
Take a small example 
        G
Take a tip from me
D
Take all of your money
        G
Give it up to charity
D
Love is what I got 
      G
It's within my reach
D
And the Sublime style's
        G
Still straight from Long Beach
D
It all comes back to you 
               G
You'll finally get what you deserve
D
Try and test that
     G
Your bound to get served
D
Love's what I got
       G
Don't start a riot
D
You'll feel it when
   G
the dance get's hot
 
[Chorus]
D       G
Lovin',

Lovin', 
            D
Is What I got
       G
Now remember that
 
D       G
Lovin', 
            D
Is What i got

Is What I got

          D
(That's) why I don't cry
        G
When my dog runs away
  D
I Don't get angry 
        G
At the bills I have to pay
   D
I don't get angry
         G
When my mom smokes pot
D
Hits the bottle 
     G
And goes right to the rock
 
D                           G
Fuckin' and fightin', it's all the same
D                            G
Livin' with Louie dog's the only way to stay sane
D                G                   D
Let the lovin', let the lovin' come back to me

Lovin', 
            D
Is What i got

I said remember that

Lovin', 
            D
Is What I got
       G
Now remember that
D       G
Lovin', 
            D
Is What i got
         G
I said remember that
D       G
Lovin', 
            D
Is What I got

Hey guys,

Got some good things to share:

First of all, I’ve reached 200 subscribers on youtube yesterday. Not a huge deal compared to others, but it’s progress. Thank you so much guys.

I did some maff, it took nearly 3 years to get to 100 subscribers, then another 8 months to get to 200 — I really hope the exponential rate continues…

Next bit of good news, I’ve got your priority access link to my new cover of “What I Got” by Sublime here: https://youtu.be/3ynQ-Bw24U0

I’m pretty sure the first time I heard this song was from playing a Dave Mirra’s Freestyle BMX demo disc on the original Playstation. (I really hope at least one of you can relate, remember playing as the Slim Jim guy?)

Last thing, I went ahead and wasted a Saturday to use a new video editing software to make a lyric video for the song, “Vibe With You”

I spent a considerable amount of time simply learning the basics, watching videos, and matching up the words with the music…

Everything synced up, it looked great, and sounded great.

And just my luck, I couldn’t render the video. In other words, the process of turning the project video into a downloadable video was fucked.

I did some googling to troubleshoot and finally found a working solution!

The video was complete.

And here, I’d like to share the final product with all of you:

Vibe With You Lyric Video.mp4

Salud,

Dylan

Baritone ukulele cover of Uno by Rex Orange County.

Chords and Lyrics

Chords: || E | f#7 | g#7 | f#7 – B7 :|| Repeat

Yeah, I don’t know where to start
How do you admit that you’re falling apart?
I mean, how will I admit that I’m falling apart?
My mother’s gonna worry but I’m fine in my heart
I’ve lived the words that I’ve said
And I live with a voice that tends to tell me that I’m shit in my head
And well, maybe I should fuck it and be happy instead
I should just say, “Fuck it, ” and be happy instead, right?
Right
‘Cause there’s a lot of people tryna tell me how to deal with myself
But I’m not gonna listen if you mention my health
I don’t care, don’t tell me and don’t text me
‘Cause that kind of shit upsets me, just kind of affects me
And it’s bringing me down, and I’m not gonna lie
These days, I prefer to just not be outside
And these days, I just end up spendin’ all of my time
With my girlfriend, but to be honest, I think that’s alright
‘Cause time keeps rollin’ and I’m just makin’ songs
I’m doing my best
Still find myself stressed
And I’m no longer sure where I belong
I’m starting to rust
Don’t know who to trust

Chords: || A | G# | c#m | E :|| Repeat til end

Some people concentrate on style too much
But I think I just force myself to smile too much
And that should soon end for the best
I wanna live my life with no stress
Love life and feel blessed, like
It’s kind of funny on the inside
I’m tryna be a man, but really I’m just a little child, shit
And that’s pretty much it
Yeah that’s pretty much it
(Is there anything else?)
Oh yeah
My jaw hurts a lot because I grind it with stress (mhm?)
I was an idiot recently and lost a lot of my friends (naw)
Nothing brings me joy and nothing makes me smile
Being at school makes me aware of how I haven’t been myself in awhile (oh)
And I wonder what it was like to be eleven?
Wonder if there’s such a thing as life after death, such a thing as heaven? (Why?)
And every now and then I think about the fact that I’d become a legend if I died at 27

Hello Ladies and Germs,

It’s about that time…

I got a new cover for you by one of my favorite new artists, Rex Naranja County.

Or as the Vietnamese might say, Rex Quận Cam.

For those of you who don’t know, Rex here isn’t really from Orange County. No. He’s actually from some old town in England.

His real name is Alex O’Connor. So he sort of turned Alex into “Rex” and used the initials of his last name (O.C.) to “Orange County”.

In short, I pretty much love all of his music.

In fact, I’ve already covered 10 of his songs. You can hear them all here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5Y5nhLHgHw&list=PL4ejXeiFsSidgWPTQJC0fAt1ZbGxhe6W2

And now, here’s your exclusive first-look to my new cover of “Uno”: https://youtu.be/43XFhoV2BAY

I think this one turned out pretty good, even though I mest up summa the werds.

Enjoy,

Dilly Bar

P.S. New original is written, and I’ll be recording it this weekend!

Baritone ukulele cover of Basket Case by Green Day from the album, Dookie.

Chords and Lyrics

[Verse 1]
 
D               A
Do you have the time
   Bm           F#m
To listen to me whine
 G                D
About nothing and everything
    A
All at once
 
D           A
I am one of those
  Bm         F#m
Melodramatic fools
   G            D
Neurotic to the bone
               A
No doubt about it
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G             A             D
  Sometimes I give myself the creeps
G              A                  D
  Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
   G                A
It all keeps adding up
  D         C        Bm
I think I'm cracking up
   G          A
Am I just paranoid?
          (D*)
Am I just stoned?

[Verse 2]
 
  D         A
I went to a shrink
   Bm         F#m
To analyze my dreams
    G                 D
She says it's lack of sex
                A
That's bringing me down
  D         A
I went to a whore
   Bm               F#m
He said my life's a bore
   G               D
So quit my whining cause
              A
It's bringing her down
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G             A            D
  Sometimes I give myself the creeps
G              A                  D
  Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me

It all keeps adding up

I think I'm cracking up

So I better hold on

D  A  Bm  F#m  G  D  A
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G             A            D
  Sometimes I give myself the creeps

Aloe,

Hope you had a spooky, socially-distanced Halloween!

Which is weird.

How did trick-or-treating work? Just throwing candy at kids? That actually doesn’t sound bad.

Speaking of bad…

Just wanna give you the first-look, before anyone else, at my new cover of Ba(d)sket Case by Green Day here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKw97ffilpg

Quick shtory:

Not too long ago, my friend Rocky and I were busking in the streets of Sandy Eggo — sorry, I meant San Diego. Which, according to Ron Burgundy, is Spanish for “A Whale’s Va–” (Stop being stupid, Dylan)

Moving on,

After playing for a while, there was a Scottish couple sitting nearby, and the man asked (with a thick Scottish accent) if I knew any “guh deen day.”

Me: “Sorry I’ve never heard of them, guh-deen-day?”

Him: “You’ve never heard of G’deen day?”

Me: “No”

Then it hit me.

Me: “Ohhhh, Green Day! Yeah I know them, but I can’t play any of their songs.”

Until now.

Enjoy,

Dylan

P.S. RIP Sean Connery, it might be too soon but, “What time does Sean Connery go to Wimbledon?”

“Ten-ish”

Hope you get that one.

My fellow brethren,

If you’re a fan of South Park, you may be familiar with an episode where the students of South Park Elementary had to vote between a Giant Douche and a Turd Sandwich to be the school’s new mascot.

It started out as a joke, with Kyle and Cartman trying to come up with the funniest thing they could think of…

Then it turned into an all-out war, with Kyle doubling down on his support for Giant Douche, and the same with Cartman for Turd Sandwich.

They rallied the other students to pick a side and lean hard to vote in the upcoming mascot election.

Meanwhile, Stan was opposed to either candidate, and didn’t want to participate just because “you’re supposed to.”.

“What’s the point?” he thought, and was told, “an election is always between the giant douche and a turd sandwich, because they’re the only people who suck up enough to make it that far in politics.”

With everyone waiting for him, he finally voted — Giant Douche won in a landslide, like 1,000 to 36.

===

Just wanted to share something relevant as I’m not politically inclined — on a count of muh public school edumacation and reading from second-hand books.

Typical American…

Speaking of America, which has a flag…

And the flag has… anybody? Anybody? (Bueller?)

White stripes!

Yesss, the newest cover is: Fell In Love With a Girl by The White Stripes

Let’s take a look at something:

It’s 2004,

You come home from school, backpack heavy and folded Razor-scooter in hand.

You carelessly throw them in the closet and head straight to the fridge.

Then, you grab a Capri Sun — Pacific Cooler — and a pack of Little Debbie Nutty Bars from the freezer.

You sit down in the living room, with the big, 32-inch tube TV.

Grab the greasy remote, turn on the TV, change the channel.

Right on time.

TRL with Carson Daily is on, and they’re about to play number 7: Roses by OutKast.

Life is…

===

That was more or less my daily ritual during my formative years.

No wonder I got so fat…

Do you ever think it’s weird when you still like the same songs as when you were a kid?

I remember two of my first CD’s were: Sum 41’s All Killer No Filler and System Of A Down’s Toxicity.

I still go back to those albums every once in a while.

And I can still sing practically every word of Fat Lip and Chop Suey.

To me, they’re still good. Quality doesn’t age.

Unlike me…

Now, get your special, priority access, first-look at my new cover here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pl_3jJ1P2EU

Feel free to leave a like or comment or show it to someone you hate named, “Caroline”.

Cheerios,

Dylan

P.S. After this email, I’m going to start emailing from a broadcast using my new address: dylan@dylansantiagomusic.com

Just a heads up to keep an eye out, and you can add the email now to your contacts to prevent it from ever going into the spam folder.

Thanks.

Hey,

So you may have heard about the famous rapper/producer/designer/entrepreneur Kanye West running for Presidential Election for 2020.

Of course, we know the result.

Not like he really had a chance of winning…

However, he went ahead to do a three hour interview on Joe Rogan’s podcast before the election.

As a fan of his music and his overall craziness, I was listening to every word.

Sure, I didn’t take it as gospel but, for lack of a better word, I found it quite enticing.

Kanye sort of just went off and showed everyone his unfiltered thought process.

I was looking for a specific quote, but google wasn’t very helpful — lots of people attacking and criticizing his soundbites.

When asked what he would do about the national budget crisis, he replied something along the lines of:

(Paraphrasing from memory)

“I would get all the information I need, and consider all the options before making the best decision.”

It sounded better the way he said it.

Sure, you can say that’s common sense, but I thought it was a very reasonable statement for the “I win you lose” culture of politics.

Now, here’s an actual quote I found:

“I just tell the truth. And telling the truth is crazy in a world full of lies.”

Real eyes realize real lies.

Anyway, I just wanted to share a bit about the artist before I sent you your priority access, first look at my new video.

It’s not your typical ukulele cover song…

Ultralight Beam by Kanye West: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQBYvd_ig3U

Also, I have trouble updating my email with the new broadcast software (I hate technology). But hopefully I’ll be able to start sending these updates directly to you with my new email: dylan@dylansantiagomusic.com — and hopefully it doesn’t go straight to your spam folder, more on that later…

Feel free to like and leave a comment.

Cheers,

Dylan
