Todays song is I'm A Song by Stephen Wilson Jr.. Born and raised in Seymour, Indiana, Stephen is one of the most uniquely compelling, authentic voices in modern independent country and rock music. Self-described as an "unlikely country star," his fascinating life path completely defies the typical Nashville mold.
This song was released on the deluxe edition of his breakout album Søn of Dad. While the track is a beautiful testament to the power of music, its true emotional weight comes from its tie to Wilson's late father, Stephen Wilson Sr. Before there was a studio recording of the song, Wilson played it live at the Bluebird Cafe in Nashville. His father, sitting in the audience, recorded it on his iPhone and would listen to the shaky video over and over again.
A few months before his father unexpectedly passed away in 2018, the two were sitting together watching fights. His father suddenly stopped and told him, "That's my favorite song, Stephen. No, I need you to listen to me, that's my favorite song ever." Following his father's sudden death, the only way Wilson could think to honor him was to perform it at his funeral, a moment he described as one of the hardest things he has ever done. Grief-stricken, he refused to touch or play the song for years until finally re-introducing it for the deluxe release of his debut album.
So let's learn this one together... I'm still searching for an ASL cover - Can you make one? For now lets start learning this song on Guitar, Ukulele and Piano. Plus check out the bonus cover videos of this song too. Let's get in to it.

I do not own rights to this song
“I’m a Song” is easily the best song I’ve heard this decade. The minute I heard it I needed to learn how to play it. So I’m sure you are in the same boat. It is very doable for even a fairly beginner player. Getting the feel down and singing while you’re playing might level it up a little bit in difficulty… but anything great is worth spending the time on. Many thanks to my buddy Ray for introducing me to this artist. Special credit to the Reddit contributor who cracked the tuning code. The rest of the music I just figured out by ear, and sometimes when I play it, I do embellish some little accent notes here and there. This is the basic arrangement though, and I hope you enjoy it and play it when you need to share your heart!

Stephen Wilson Jr.-I'm A Song Cover All Rights To Stephen Wilson Jr. Wanted to do a version of this song in standard tuning instead of his alternate tuning, so if anyone wanted to play it in standard. Capo1. Have fun playing it. Great tune!
I think Stephen Wilson Jr plays this song in open C tuning with a capo on the 1st fret. I'm tuned to CGCFGC (DADGAD tuned down a whole step) with a capo on the 1st fret.

I've been enjoying playing his music and trying to catch his vibe. What I think is most special about this song is that it's the one that's blowing him up right now. He talked about how special it was to his dad and how hard it was for him to play this song. Now here he is touching people everywhere with a song that was his dad's favorite. I didn't have a close relationship with my dad but it's the kind of dad that I want to be and is why I relate.
I'm not one to usually sing on my videos and definitely don't have his voice. I'm starting to get down his picking style a little bit better and the things he does on his guitar as I've been playing along with his stuff the last week. I'm a metal head that plays Gilmour in a Pink Floyd tribute band called Brain Damage and never found a country vibe in my playing. This is my attempt and thanks for watching my video if you stuck around. I made a lesson on how to play this song on my channel. • I'm a Song - guitar lesson - song by Steph...
