about

This is a birthday song which Anna wrote for Linda Campbell's 60th birthday. Anna Knew Linda from early days at primary school. Linda recently sange with a boy band called Val Vamp and the Distortion Unit, at the age of 59.

lyrics

Val Vamp at 60 March 2018: ADRyan
Box and guitars (softly) Em chord to start
Remember, Linda, when we were wee, Em C
And you were a big girl in Primary Three, G D
And me, just a baby in Primary Two Em C
Had we an inkling of what we’d go through? G D
Your raven locks and your dimpled face Em C
Just a little one starting out on that old rat race G D
Who knew then what cards we’d be dealt, Em C
What decisions we’d make and what passions we felt? G D
1, 2, 3, 4…..
1) Never thought you’d be singing with a boy band A
Up on the stage, with the mic in your left hand A
Val Vamp, what a champ, with your Distortion Unit D
What a show, get down low and put some feeling in it D
2) Didn’t know that you were such a funky chick A
Until I realised that you could always have the pick A
From the crowd, always holding your own, D
You are a demon on the microphone. D

Bridge A G D A sax comes in here

3) You got my back, you are my resistor, A sax
You cover for my mistakes just like a sister A
Val Vamp, what a champ, with your Distortion Unit D
What a show, get down low, and put some feeling in it. D

4) You got the rhythm when you playin on your big box A sax
You keep us dancin when we should be doing detox A
Val Vamp, what a champ, with your Distortion Unit D
What a show, get down low, and put some feeling in it. D
Bridge A G D A
Repeat Verse 1 & 2, then Bridge x2, then slow down to end

Bridge
A G F sharp D
G F E C
D C B G
A
