It’s insanely hard to play too - he is wrapping his entire hand around the guitar to use even his thumb for frets so he can play the arpeggios gently and smooth with the chords. So much of his music sounds like just gentle normal guitar that is compelling, but he is one of the most subtly skilled guitarists in the genre
I'm not used to coming through More accustomed to a falling out I'm trying hard now as I can for you Not to fuck up on some stupid doubt You've got your hopes set way up high Way on up there where the air is thin The limit's supposed to be the sky I'm trying not to let you down again It's starting to come to me I didn't know about hadn't figured it out But it's starting to come to me now A little bit too late I can't see anything you've done Any reason for the trouble you've got You haven't hurt anyone - Compared to most that's saying quite a lot I can't help you when you're sad That's a constant source of pain to me Because I want to really bad Even though you make it seem like nothing It's starting to come to me I didn't know about i hadn't figured it out But it's starting to come to me now A little bit too late
This song is for anybody you’ve known all your life. Show them love.

ohhhhh i love him so
I'm not used to coming through
More accustomed to a falling out
I'm trying hard now as I can for you
Not to fuck up on some stupid doubt
You've got your hopes set way up high
Way on up there where the air is thin
The limit's supposed to be the sky
I'm trying not to let you down again
It's starting to come to me
I didn't know about hadn't figured it out
But it's starting to come to me now
A little bit too late
I can't see anything you've done
Any reason for the trouble you've got
You haven't hurt anyone -
Compared to most that's saying quite a lot
I can't help you when you're sad
That's a constant source of pain to me
Because I want to really bad
Even though you make it seem like nothing
It's starting to come to me
I didn't know about i hadn't figured it out
But it's starting to come to me now
A little bit too late
It kind of reminds me of being abused as a kid and it slowly coming back to my memory as an adult.
if you play the bass on it again theres a chance to make it better, i love this song.
