lyrics

I was seven
when I picked it up and it made a sound
something up against my chest
to wrap my heart around

laying in my bedroom and
searching out the notes
to the music
sweet music
that was coming out of my radio

I could
hold it
pick it
strum it
stroke it
feel it
lovin
my guitar

I was thirteen
I was feeling kinda low
'til I saw that red electric in the window

give
me
six strings
and a pick
and I'm happy
any way the wind blows...

we can sing
we can cry
we can wail
we can fly
rockin through the sky
me and my guitar

This is my guitar
There are many like it
but this one here is mine
so fine

sings like the sweetest bird
but wails like a tornado baby
my guitar

time for a little rock and roll

me and my guitar

about

Mark Marshall Kingston, New York

Like the other areas of Mark’s life, the music he makes is chameleon-like: wildly diverse, meticulously crafted songs that range from radio-ready pop to hard rock, piano-driven ballads to soundtrack-ish instrumentals, futuristic funk-jazz to clubby techno dance.

“I just want people to feel something when they hear my music...To get as much joy and emotion from it as I felt when I was making it.”
