He is known for a fingerpicking style that draws on influences from blues, jazz, and folk music, and for syncopated, polyphonic melodies.

 Struggling with Tell Mary? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

Late last night I stood outside this room
Without the moon these windows were black
But I could see that I was not mistaken
And I would never be coming back

Down the street the shadows followed them 
I guess some men were meant to grow cold
They just get lost and make it their discovery
Long shadows turn some hearts cold

Somebody please tell Mary
Somebody please tell Mary

Late last night I stood outside this room
Without the moon these windows were black
But I could see that I was not mistaken
And I will never be coming back

Somebody please tell Mary
Somebody please tell Mary
