It was one of the first fingerstyle songs I taught--a big challenge at the time. It's here on my <a>free guitar chords</a> page. What do you think?

I just wrote a long comment here and my screen just went blank and it vanished. And it was a GOOD one too!!! LOL! I was sooooooo touched by your comment on my post. I spent this afternoon listening to "child of the wind" over and over and over and over. I am STILL listening to it. I had not ever heard it and I cannot tell you what that song did for my, Larry. I have been so buried in work lately, hardly had time to blog, no time to hike. Feeling like I was losing my self to the "Machine" of what we all have to do to stay alive: eat, roof over our heads, etc. And when I listened to that song I felt more ME than I have in WEEKS or more. I sat here with tears in my eyes. I'm serious. I felt inspired, alive, free, especially free. I KNEW who I am. I felt so me I had tears running down my face, I picked up an old pencil and just started writing I felt so moved. I started writing from my heart, just my thoughts and feelings about....who I am, what I feel. I'd not done that (not like THAT) in a long time. I do SO much writing for work that after awhile the reason I originally started to write gets lost. I was stunned, amazed and deeply honored that you associated that song with me. And YET, when I listened to it -- like I said -- I felt soooooooooo ME. I was impressed with your insight and wisdom....that you made that connection. I needed that song right now in my life more than I can tell you. You have given me a HUGE gift. One I am deeply grateful for. I actually bookmarked the song right up on my menu bar so I can listen to is whenever I want. Then I come here and you have been to see him perform. That must have been absolutely amaaaazing. I am going to check out these other links you have here. Do you know what is so cool? Every bit of music that you have recommended I have liked. I think that is wonderful. You pick the BEST stuff. Thank you so much for making my whole day and more. It is SUCH an wonderful gift, Larry. I am honored and touched. :) :) And happy!!! Dang!
