Take You At Your Word | Cody Carnes | Chris Garcia | Live Drum Cover

Take you at your word is a great song from Cody Carnes and love playing this as the first song to service with the generation church family! We normally do a intro jam into the first song, which in this case I’ve added a more “live” element to the start of take you at your word compared to the Tom intro that is on the record. Some parts are different than the record only because it feels better in the house and with this group. I highly recommend learning the original parts but also finding ways to explore your creativity and how it will fit with the team you’re with. Hope you enjoy this run through or Take You At Your Word! Choose Kindness™️

I love that you change the song up. I personally don't enjoy playing worship songs copy paste in our services and as a Metal/Blues drummer, I find so many cool ways to change these songs up but still make it feel big and powerful and without taking too much away from how it should sound. The bridge to this song is so fun.

Thank you and fully agree… there are moments in songs that need to remain the same and others that can be adjusted to fit the moment and team. I like your style choices as well, every song could use a blues feel 🙌🏽 appreciate the kindness Zach!

Dude. You NAIL the bridge. That exit into the down chorus is so sick. Taken a couple cracks at this tune myself and I just have such a hard time feeling that out, and you make it look so eaaaasy. Crazy good job, dude.

[@chrisgarciadrums]

Wow, truly grateful for the kindness, means a lot! It’s definitely tricky as you know. I will say it doesn’t feel easy in the head as we count it haha, but truly appreciate it! Keep striving and hope you crush it next time you play it!

So important - if people want to listen to a carbon copy then they can listen to the original...

[@chrisgarciadrums]

Precisely! We should respect the original for sure but definitely expand on it to fit our style & the group. Appreciate the input!

[@Noahclark12]

Just started watching you and love what you do! I am a drummer for my church and all the funny things that can happen at your church band also happen on mine and it’s funny to see them happen other places. (Also playing with clicks is the best way to go!!!)

[@chrisgarciadrums]

Yooo! Appreciate you and yes it’s amazing how all those antics are everywhere! Glad you love the click and keep striving
