Song: | Attention Heepsters:
This song is written by Phil "Boz Roz" Rossner of The Boz Roz Band. They are a blues rock band, but they wanted to write a Uriah Heep-type song. This is it. They have Uriah Heeps Bernie Shaw singing it with them. They intended to include Traveler on their next CD, but the band broke up before that would happen. -4 -4 5 -5 5 -4 -6 6 -6 6 5 -4 Oooh.

Basically, it's like this: 2 -1 2 1 2 -1 2 There are a couple of times that a -2 is played instead of that first 2. |
