By Federico Borluzzi:

Acoustic cover of “Seven”, a song included in David Bowie’s “Hours” album (1999). Played with acoustic guitar and harmonica.

** EDITOR’S NOTE: **

I love how the Guest Sessions Fridays have become days to feature songs by performers around the globe, most notably Jeremy Hammond and today’s featured performer, Federico Borluzzi. Even though we may be in different countries with different native languages, there are still certain artists and songs who transcend such boundaries.

We hope you’ll enjoy today’s Guest Session — a fairly recent David Bowie song, one which was originally used for a video game before it was re-recorded and featured as Bowie’s second single of the new millennium. As usual, Federico has done a nice job translating this track into a simple acoustic arrangement, adding harmonica — all played live in one take!

Happy Friday!

“Trouble”
Pink

G                                      D
No attorneys to plead my case,
C                                G
No orbits to send me into outer space.
And my fingers are bejeweled
With diamonds and gold, but that ain’t gonna help me now.

G            C          G           C
I’m trouble, yeah trouble now;
G               C              D           C
I’m trouble ya’ll — I disturb my town.
I’m trouble, yeah trouble now;
I’m trouble ya’ll — I got trouble in my town.

You think you’re right, but you were wrong.
You tried to take me, but I knew all along.
You can take me for a ride,
But I’m not a fool out, so you better run and hide.

CHORUS

Bm                 Em       Am          D         C
If you see me coming down the street, then you
Bm          Em      Am               D                        C                                 G
Know it’s time to go (and you know it’s time to go ’cause here comes trouble)…

SOLO

No attorneys to plead my case,
No orbits to send me into outer space.
And my fingers are bejeweled
With diamonds and gold, but that ain’t gonna help me now.

You think you’re right, but you were wrong.
You tried to take me, but I knew all along.
You can take me for a ride,
But I’m not a fool out, so you better run and hide.

CHORUS

If you see me coming down the street, then you
Know it’s time to go (and you know it’s time to go ’cause here comes trouble)…

CHORUS (repeat)

“Laughing”
The Goo Goo Dolls

C#                     B                           A             E                   B
I wake up, I’m staring at the clock; my belly hurts and my head is like a rock.
I get up to see what I can see; furthest I got was my black and white TV.
Eyewitness news brought to you at noon; oh my God guess I got up too soon because…

E                   A
Oh I feel like laughing
Oh I feel like laughing
Oh I feel like laughing
B         A          E
all because of you

C#                     B                           A       E                     B
I didn’t mean to wear this disguise, but I can’t stand the look in my eyes.
Oh, I didn’t mean to lie; I was doing what I thought was right.
Come on, walk right down the line; you’ll be walking til the end of time because…

E                   A
Oh, I feel like laughing,
Oh, I feel like laughing,
Oh, I feel like laughing,
B         A          E
all because of you.

SOLO (over verse chords)

E                   A
Oh, I feel like laughing,
Oh, I feel like laughing,
Oh, I feel like laughing,
B         A          E
all because of you.

“All Of The Time”
Locksley

G                                Em
There’s no one else I know
Em                     G         Em
Who makes me feel so…
Em                   G                 Em
I never want to see that girl go.
Em                 C                      D
Stay all of the time, all of the time…

But she’s not here tonight,
And if she’s out with you, that’s just not right.
I’d really hate to have to start a fight,
But I think that I might; I think that I might…

Bbm   Em
Everywhere she is I want to be,
Bbm   C   D
And when I’m holding her it makes me weak.
Bbm   Em
We’ve got a kind of love that’s hard to see,
C   D
And your lies are tearing her away from me.

So leave and you’ll be fine.
You tell another story, I’m drawing the line.
I end up in the middle all of the time,
All of the time, all of the time…

G         Em
I really love her…
I can’t stop thinking of her…
You got in the way…
Now, hear what I say…
