about

I don't have the patients or the skill to write a book. I like writing songs cause I write a few verses and then it's done. This is my attempt to mix both. An original story in song form complete with the cheesy telling the ending first story telling format that annoys me when shows do it. Sometimes its done with good effect but other times I just feel like its cliche. So the fact that I'm starting this story with part 3 is a joke to me and a little ode to all those great Hollywood types that like to tell the ending 1st.

The Ballad of John Doe’s Unsolved Mystery (the story of his alien abduction) Part 3

Capo 3 V: Em G Am C C: G C B: Am G Am C

talking intro:
It’s February 4 1984 approximately 6.5 Miles South East of Lewistown, Montana a naked man is spotted. The Police are called and they along with an ambulance race toward the scene. The man is dazed and confused. The Police take custody of the man and have him looked over by a paramedic. The paramedic is a 27 year old woman who begins checking the John Doe and it is at this moment our story begins.

She’s asks me if I know my name
She asks me again
She asks where I’m going
She asks me where I’ve been

I’ve been to heaven
A glorious place
Where the people live in peace
A world of beauty
With multiple moons
And the occupants all stay young
I’ve been to heaven

A light is shining in my eyes
And shadows seems to move
I hear a wailing in the distance
I seem to float above the room

Time and space, become one
The wormhole opens and I’m gone

I’m going to heaven
A glorious place
Where the people live in peace
A world of beauty
With multiple moons
And the occupants all stay young
I’m going to heaven
