    Gram Parsons Tribute
    CD: Still Safe At Home   Label: Independent
    Credits: Neil Flanz: Pedal Steel/Walt Leuzinger: Guitar & Vocals/Jeff Garbe: Bass

    Story Behind the Song
    Of course Neil's association with Gram Parsons as part of The Fallen Angels is well documented and after having worked with Neil on The Porch Pickers CD I thought it would be a great idea to have a tribute song to Gram that would allow Neil a chance to pay his respects in the best musical way possible, with his great steel playing.

    Lyrics
    You know I've traveled down your road
    Seems like twenty thousand times
    And I've come to love that oak tree
    And those Carolina pines
    And your voice still gives me comfort
    When I'm down or all alone
    So how can I believe that you could leave
    While I'm still safe at home

    Copyright, 2001 by Walt Leuzinger

    Well I guess it was your vision
    Must have given you your fame
    But those bright lights drew you closer
    Like a moth into a flame
    You knew the city of the angels
    Was a devil to the bone
    But in a cosmic trance you took a chance
    Like you were still safe at home

    It wasn't an earthquake
    Or the Lord's burnin' rain
    But you found your trouble all the same

    Now it hasn't been a hundred
    But its more than thirty years
    Since you have asked the question
    And I have dried my tears
    And your voice still gives me comfort
    Hope you know I'm not alone
    When I say you paved the way
    But I wish you were still safe at home
    Still safe at home
