Music Video: "Simple Treasures" written and sung by Greg Vanderlaan

https://youtu.be/CLWIRyF0YnQ  

This song is about Dancing in the Mud in RFK Stadium at a Grateful Dead Concert. AND Working at WREX Plastics Factory making wheelchair wheels... on the Graveyard Shift. 

It includes two of my Favorite Chords. 

E*=e0,B0,G6,D7,A7,E0
E**=e0,B0,G4,D5,A5,E0
(NC)=No Chord=eBGDAE

E     G       D       A
Thank God for simple treasures
E     G       D        A
Thank God for rock and roll
E        G       D       A
An arena full of singing people...
D                         A
a blessed time to ease my soul
Chorus:
E              E* E**
Dancing in the MUD
E**        A (NC) E
in a stadium
E               E*
when I hear the drums
E**           A (NC) E
I know that I belong
E                 E*  E**
the hammer on the gong
E**          A (NC) E
and the momentum
E               E*  E**
will reveal the truth
E**           A (NC) E
hidden for so long

Thank God for simple treasures
Thank God for my guitar
it has a magic healing power
PARA VIVIR, YO CANTAR

Chorus:

Thank God for simple treasures
Thank God for my machine
I make another 30 wheels then,
take a rag and wipe it clean
Chorus:
In the factory
working all night long
making plastic wheels
until the break of dawn
