Giving girls a break from my attention, I can say that it is also about these guys. This I know. On the left - Steve Behal who you can hear on 5 or 6 songs sprinkled throughout these albums. He goes back to the mid 80s with me and has some great stories. In the middle is my Bestie since 1960 - Don. Most of our stories that we share with each other trigger the response, “I know. I was there.”

 
 

This i know

As with other songs, this one is a kind of “What’s it all about, Alfie?” thing morphing into the usual - its about love. As for the music. It’s just fast and lively.

 

This I Know

A         D  E      A  F#m  D  E
A                           D     E           A                      D  Bm   
There were days I tried to fly.    Maybe I did / maybe not 
E                          C#m  F#m       D          B              E
There were days I tried to cry. Did I hold back or just not care
           A          E
I don’t know 

Some days, I just get by.  Is that good enough / maybe not?
Someday, I’m going to die.  Who will care more - you or me
I don’t know 

A                           C#m        F#m            Bm
Floating through this life like a seed on the wind
D                          Bm          E                 E
Bouncing off the rocks, getting stuck in the mud
Asus                 Bm       G                      E
Believing in a beginning. Believing in an end
A                      A                C#            F#m                     
And finding out the bomb is a dud. This I know

Instrumental Verses (2)

But fall in love many times did I
And never deeper than I did with you 
This I know

Floating through this life like a seed on the wind
Bouncing off the rocks and getting blown out to sea
I have no interest in a beginning or an end    F#                    D…..
I found out love is everything to me. This I know
