Mind Over Matter - Young the Giant One-Man-Band Cover

My take on one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite bands, Young the Giant.

I met the Young the Giant guys after their show at the Boulder Theater in 2015 and became acquainted over a game of pool. Since then, one of the guitarists in the band has been incredibly helpful and kind to me. As a musician, or any aspiring professional, it's hard to know what the next step is when there are so many paths to choose from. I feel honored to have been helped by a musician I dearly respect and this cover is just a little way of showing my appreciation to the band for being kind human beings and such badass musicians/songwriters!

Mind over matter
Does it matter to any of us?
Don't change the subject
I'm heavy on your love
I missed that train
New York City, it rains
Fly to East L.A. in big jet planes
You know you're on my mind?
And if the world don't break
I'll be shaking it
'Cause I'm a young man after all
And when the seasons change
Will you stand by me?
'Cause I'm a young man built to fall
