Did a Creative Cover of this one 5 years ago, but wanted to re-Record this early Neil Diamond masterpiece another time with an "Unplugged" Live style capture.

I Am I Said - Original - Neil Diamond
LA’s fine, the sun shines, most 'the time
And the feelin' is laid back
Palm trees grow and rents are low, but I ’feel…..
I-gotta’-start making my way back
Oh, I’m New York City born and raised, but nowadays
I'm lost between two shores.
LA’s fine, but it ain't home……
And, New York's home… But, it ain't mine no more.
(Chorus)
I am I said….to no one there
And no one heard at all, not even……
The chair
I am, I cried
I am, Said I
And, I am lost, and I don’t……
even know why
(Leaving me lonely - still)
Did you ever hear about the frog who dreamed about being a King?…… And suddenly became one?
Well, except for the names and a few other changes
My story's the same one
But, I have an emptiness deep inside so strong
it won’t let me go
And, I'm not a man who likes to swear, but I've never cared….
for the sound of being Alone.
(Repeat Chorus and Out)
