Topic: Untitled

I just returned from vacation in Japan and was intrigued by all the music I heard over there. This song is mostly about the music and the lyrics come from me observing my wife a bit while I was over there. Anyway I hope you all like it and if anyone has a title suggestion I'm open.

Untitled By Jeff Gilpin


October 26th, 2007




Intro


[G] [Dm] [Am]


Verse 1


[Am]I saw you once a long time ago


[Dm]Lost in thought about [Am]some idea you caught


[Am]You seemed on the verge of a grin


But it [G]turned into a [Dm]frown in the [Am]end




Chorus 1


I [Dm]wondered what you were [Am]thinking of


I[Dm] wondered what had changed your [G]mood


[Am]I wondered what to say to you


But [G]I decided [Dm]not to in[Am]trude




Verse 2


[Am]Many years have come and gone


[Dm]Memories galore I’m [Am]sure there’ll be more


[Am]Today I remembered you standing there



And [G]all I could [Dm]do was just [Am]stare




Chorus 2


[Dm]What if I had walked up [Am]to you


I [Dm]wonder what you’d have [G]said


It’s [Am]difficult to know another’s thoughts


It’s [G]difficult to [Dm]know another’s [Am]head




Verse 3


[Am]Now today again I’m watching you


[Dm]And I saw you frown with [Am]no one else around


[Am]I almost asked you what the frown was for


But [G]once again [Dm]I choose to ig[Am]nore




Chorus 3


To [Dm]me it means more when it’s a [Am]mystery


As I [Dm]ponder what’s going on inside your [G]mind


[Am]What thought could ever erase you pretty smile


Here’s [G]hoping another thought [Dm]brings it back in [G]time[Dm] [Am]

Well jets, one of the things about women is that you can't figger us out lol.... she probly wouldn't tell you (or tell you the TRUTH) even if you asked, but I bet she'd be glad you noticed smile
haven't taken the chords for a spin yet but I think they're gonna sound real nice and meloncholy (kind of like the face your wife made). You should sing it for her I bet she'd be happy to know you've spent that much time thinking about her

All You Need is Love smile

Hi Jeff,

Great to have you back and I hope you enjoyed your holiday. Lovely song this and a good choice of a minor key to make it both whistful and enchanting.

I think the best title for this can only be "MICHIYO"

Thank you,

Roger

Re: Untitled

Thanks for your comments -
Reb - She likes that I'm thinking about her but you're right she keeps a lot she's thinking to herself.
Roger - I ran the Michiyo title past her and she wasn't too keen on the idea but I might just do it anyway
Old Doll - appreciate it
