Music Lesson: "Everywhere I Go"
Hi, I'm Lissy, and this is a lesson on the song "Everywhere I Go."
Lyrics Exploration
Verse 1
"I'll fall on my knees.
Tell me how the weight be.
Tell me how's the way to go.
Tell me all that I should know,
and I'll fall on my knees."
Verse 2
"Tell me how's the way to go.
Tell me how's the way to see
to evoke some empathy.
And angels follow me now
everywhere I go."
Chorus
"And angels will call on me
and take me to my home
where this giant mind
just wants to be led home."
Verse 3
"And I will fall on my knees.
Tell me how's the way to go.
Tell me how's the way to see,
show me all that I could be,
and I'll fall on my knees."
Verse 4
"Tell me how's the way to be.
Yeah, tell me how is the way to go.
Tell me why I feel so low.
Oh, and danger will follow me now
everywhere I go."
Bridge
"And angels will call on me
and take me to my home.
Well, these tired eyes
just want to remain closed.
I don't see clearly
and I can't feel nothing."
Final Thoughts
"No, I will care.
You have me.
And I'll fall on my knees,
and angels will follow me
however I go.
And angels will call on me
and take me to my home,
and angels,
Angela will follow me now
everywhere I go.
And angels will call on me
and take me to my home.
In my home, in my home...
Oh, home."
About the instructor
Lissie is a folk-rocker who grew up in Rock Island, Illinois, near the Mississippi River, speaking her mind and writing songs from an early age. Fans first fell in love with her voice on the five-song EP 'Why You Runnin'', produced by Bill Reynolds of Band of Horses, which Paste Magazine ranked among its Eight Most Auspicious Musical Debuts. In 2010, her first full-length album 'Catching A Tiger' unassumingly established Lissie as a global voice. Stateside praise was matched in the UK with acclaim from the BBC, Evening Standard, Uncut and The Independent, who described it as "as refreshing a slice of pop as these jaded ears have heard in years." The album went on to sell 300,000 copies worldwide - 100,000 of them in the UK, where it was certified Gold. Highlights along the way: Nominated for Best Breakthrough Act at the Q Awards, and tapped by VH1 as a "You Oughta Know" artist Festival sets at Glastonbury, Hard Rock Calling, Latitude, Secret Garden Party and Bestival TV appearances including Later with Jools Holland and Sunday Brunch Screen roles in Loudermilk and David Lynch's Twin Peaks, where NME praised her "intense" performance closing the episode with the Stevie Nicks-esque 'Wild West': "Rock Island's most exciting troubadour more than earned her Lynch-commissioned screen time." 'Carving Canyons' (out September 16), her first full-length album since the UK Top 10 'Castles' in 2018 In her guitar course, Lissie shares the chords, strumming and songwriting instincts behind her songs - everything you need to start playing like Rock Island's finest troubadour. read more
