Re: Don't You Love Me Anymore

Hi Chuck,

Whilst I thought that the lyrics to your song is fine and had no problem with deciding on a melody for the chorus I did struggle with the verses. This is not a critisism but with a long single chords for the first three lines of the verses it is very difficult to know what your intended melody is. Please, if you can, record this song so that I can hear the melody.

Well done,

Roger

Roger,

        I understand what your saying. Working on trying to get my music recorded, but my 24

        track is messed up! I did buy a cheap 4 track yesterday, so we'll see how that goes!!

        Just to give you an idea of how the song goes: A continuance moderate strum all the way

        through the song. You have to sing a little fast to keep up with the chord changes, but

        other than that, pretty simple song, pretty simple to play. Sorry I haven't got them re-

        corded yet, just so much to do, and not enough time in the day to do them!!!

                                                                                              Thanks,
                                                                                                       getfiddle

Hi getfiddle - this is a dandy love-gone-wrong song.  I would also like to hear it.  James
