New Tag

Help

Q: What are tags?
A: Tags are a way to add consistent notes to songs.

Q: When should I use tags?
A: Tags should be used for "notes" that can apply to multiple songs or performances. A good tag would be "clawhammer", to apply to all songs that Billy plays on his banjo. A bad tag would be "Streaker ran across stage" - since this has only happened once (thank goodness).

Q: Where should I add a tag?
A: A tag that should apply to everytime a song is played, like "solo, acappella" for "And am I Born to Die" should be added on the songs page. This will automatically add the tag every time that song is added to a setlist.

A tag that only applies to certain performances of a song, like "pay Jarrod Walker's fine" lyric change that happens in some versions of "Little Maggie" should be added to that particular version of the song on each setlist.

Q: How do I add a tag?
A: Click the "Manage tags" button either from the songs page or the song editing option on the edit setlist page. Click on a tag from the "Available" tags to add it to the song. Click on a tag from under the song title to remove it from the song. Click the "New Tag" button if the tag you want to add is not under the Available tags list.

Doin' Things Right

Billy Strings

Turmoil & Tinfoil (Album)


[Verse 1]
I keep doin' things right
It's like I can't do wrong
Well I feel so tired
It's probably cause I've been awake so long

[Verse 2]
And I got a little rhythm
Playing through my head
And I'd like to keep it goin'
Otherwise I might wake up dead

[Chorus]
We gotta stick together baby
Through thick and thin
If we're gonna see the sun come up again
It don't matter where you're from
What shade you are
Keep reaching for the sun and the moon and the stars

[Verse 3]
When you're feeling all alone
You need some ears to pull
You can call me up, baby
'Cause you know my heart is feelin' full

[Verse 4]
It's a peaceful easy livin'
Down here on Earth
With my eyes on the bright side
I've had 'em glued there since birth

[Chorus]
We gotta stick together baby
Through thick and thin
If we're gonna see the sun come up again
It don't matter where you're from
What shade you are
Keep reaching for the sun and the moon and the stars

[Verse 5]
You couldn't tell me no rules
I couldn't learn sometime
And if I did you wrong
You know eventually I'm gonna get mine

[Verse 6]
It's just the way of the world
She's got the master plan
And with her in mind
You know I'm tryin' to be a better man

[Verse 7]
Come on and listen, little children
To the words I say
We've got to stand together
To put an end to hate today

[Verse 8]
It don't matter where you're from
Or what age you are
Well you can make the difference
You can be somebody's shooting star

[Chorus]
We gotta stick together baby
Through thick and thin
If we're gonna see the sun come up again
It don't matter where you're from
What age you are
Keep reaching for the sun and the moon and the stars
