DREAMS
Gregg Allman
The Allman Brothers


Live performance with the Black Crowes

*10/22/05 - Henry Fonda Theater, Hollywood, CA
Ben sat in with the Black Crowes on lap slide for an encore performance of the Allman Brothers Band's "Dreams." He and Marc traded solos and inspired each other to otherworldly levels of playing while Chris Robinson kept grooving harder and harder until it just crescendoed and then dropped into Ben singing the second verse...
For the tech-heads: Ben played his Asher Ben Harper Model Series II Lap Steel Guitar through a RMC Wah Wah Pedal and a Vintage Ibanez TS808 Overdrive Pedal into a 100 Watt Dumble Overdrive Special Combo Amp.

Lyrics

Just one more mornin'
I had to wake up with the blues
Pulled myself outta bed
Put on my walkin' shoes
Went up on the mountain
To see what I could see
The whole world was fallin'
Right down in front of me

'Cause I'm hung up on dreams
I'll never see, yeah Baby
Ah help me baby
Or this will surely be the end of me

Pull myself together, put on a new face
Climb down off the hilltop, baby
Get back in the race

'Cause I'm hung up on dreams
I'll never see, yeah Baby
Ah help me baby
Or this will surely be the end of me

Pull myself together, put on a new face
Climb down off the hilltop, baby
Get back in the race

'Cause I'm hung up on dreams
I'll never see, yeah Baby
Ah help me baby
Or this will surely be the end of me
