Subject: RE: What do you do when....
Lucy Ann the missing words are above you on the ceiling. Have you noticed whenever we forget a line we tend to look up at the ceiling. Are we hoping some how, the words are mysteriously written up there for us, or is in the hope of divine intervention?

Seriously though Lucy Ann, it happens to all of us at sometime, don't let it worry you. I usually grab a verse I know just to get me going, no one really notices and I put it down to the folk process or if you like, my version of the song. There have been times when the band I play with has a long intrumental break until the words come back. When you think about it (and maybe even count the number) there are a lot of songs flying round or heads catters, and sometimes they get a bit out of order in the old brains filing system
