            D                          G    A                D 
Well I'm a kid with a guitar trying to play Nuages when they ask.  
G               A#         D 
Where does your style come from?  
D                            G            D

D G D Django was a star, he burned up a guitar G A D with just two good fingers to use. Bm F#m G You can't turn back time or put more sand in the glass, Em A but sometimes at night, I close my eyes and go back...
