G
I left my home in norfolk virginia
C
California on my mind
D
I boarded that greyhound,
G
Rode in into raliegh on across caroline
G
Stopped in charlotte to by pass rockhill
C
We never was a minute late
D
We were ninty miles out of atlanta by sundown
G
Rollin' out of georgia state
G
We had motor trouble that turned into a struggle
C
Halfway across alabam
D
And that bow broke down
G
And left us stranded in downtown birmingham
G
Right away i bought a through train ticket
C
Got across mississippi clean
D
And i was on that midnight flyer out of birmingham
G
Smokin' into new orleans
G
Somebody help me get out of louisiana
C
Help me get to houston town

D
There are people there who care a little 'bout me
G
And won't put the poor boy down
G
Georgia born, they bought me a silk suit
C
And put luggage in my hand
D
And woke up high over albuquerque
G
On a jet to the promised land
G
Workin' on a t-bone ala cartee
C
Flyin' over to the golden state
D
When the pilot told us in thirteen minutes
G
He would set us at the terminal gate
G
Swing low chariot, come down easy
C
Taxi to the terminal door
D
Cut your engines and cool your wings
G
And let me make it to the telephone
G
Los angeles, give me norfolk virginia
C
Tidewater four ten o nine
D
Tell all the folks back home

It's the promised land callin'
G
And the poor boy is on the line

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
