BETTER TIMES WILL COME

Words & Music by Janis Ian ©2020
A modern spiritual, Janis Ian wrote this beautiful new classic during lockdown 2020, in the spirit of hope, courage and heart . The song anchors Janis Ian's Better Times Will Come Project - an amazing invitation to all people - and featured Kate & Cathy's field version as captured by Steve on his phone last year. Ian's review of our field recording brought attention to the story and work of our  Kathleen-Cathleen  project, and the catharsis of loss and connection in song. 

Adaptable to many styles and voices, here are two samples played in G (Kate & Cathy) and D (John Gorka).  Uke players can play it in D, and/or capo on the 2nd fret and play in C-F-G7 shapes.
