Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
This is a newer artist, and I haven't seen much by Toby on the web, so I thought I'd
contribute one of my favorite new songs.
Capo on 3rd fret, everything is relative to capo position.
This is a fairly simple song. Just strum the chords, and listen to Toby for the

Am
Viewing lights under the surface
F9
Knowing I'm found
C
Can't run away from
G
Can't make it undone
Am
While reaching out for anything
F9
Screaming without a sound
C
How did I find you
G C
How was I supposed to try
Chorus:
C G Dm
I'm frightened by the love that's in you
F
But it's alright
C G Dm
Oh and I'm frightened by the love that's in me
F9
But I know, it's alright
Am
The only one who understands
F9
The only one who gave me
C
Something to belong to
G
With nothing left to undo
Am
With you, everything's beautiful
F9
And I'm not scared to be
C
Falling into unknown
G C
With you, I find the strength to carry on
Chorus
(Just strum the verse chords while humming and singing "It's alright" here. I like
to go into the chorus again and fade out after that.)
