Warren Haynes
"Invisible"

Warren Haynes  is an American rock and blues guitarist, vocalist and songwriter. Haynes is best known for his work as longtime guitarist with The Allman Brothers Band and as founding member of the jam band Gov't Mule. Early in his career he was a guitarist for David Allan Coe and The Dickey Betts Band. Haynes also is known for his associations with the remaining members of The Grateful Dead, including touring with Phil Lesh and Friends and The Dead. In addition, Haynes founded and manages Evil Teen Records.

Warren Haynes is pretty famous for not having a household name. He has won one Grammy Award and was nominated 8 other times. He is also in the Grammy Hall of Fame and he was ranked by Rolling Stone as one of the top 25 guitar players of all-time.

"Invisible" was written by Haynes and appears on his 1993 debut solo album titled, Tales of Ordinary Madness. The song has a soul influence that kicks the tempo back up a notch and features some interesting guitar solos that when you listen to the interplay of percussion seem almost jazz influenced.

"Invisible"
Lyrics


See these cans these worn out shoes
This old shopping cart full of rusty blues
It's plain as day
So why do I feel invisible?

Look at my face these weather worn miles
If you ain't gotta dime brother
Could you spare a smile?
Instead of looking right through me
Like I was invisible

Here's to dreaming an American dream
Here's to scheming an American scheme

See these hands they're black and blue
Seen a lot of dreams slip right on through
Like water just like water
Invisible invisible

See this child, she looks a lot like me
She says "daddy when I grow up I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be I don't wanna be
Invisible"

Here's to singing an American song
Here's to righting an American
WRONG


See these people being cast away
Number's growing day by day
And if something don't change
You know we can't remain

Invisible invisible
Invisible invisible
