Topic: Come Home Melisa

Hello again...Hope everyone in the southeastern United States is enjoying this extremely hot summer we're having as much as i am...So when i'm not working in the hot sun, I'm writing songs and here's another one from Rooster3. 
    Please let me know what you think......

Come Home MelisaCopywrite: Blake Stitcher


- For verses it is 4 beats per chord


Intro:  C,  Am, F,  G


 


Verse 1:


[C]This morning I got up,


[Am]I walked outside and cried,


[F]I started talking to the [G]rain.


 


[C]Every time that I spoke,


[G]I heard the thunder roll,


[F]But I said what I had to [G]say.


 


Bridge 1:


[F]I said I really miss that [G] girl,


[F]When she left she took my [G]world.


 


Chorus:


Come Home [C] Melisa


I’m sorry for [Am] all I’ve done


[F] I let you run out on me


Even [G] though I knew you were the one


If only [C] you knew how


I cry and [Am] miss you now


[F]I wish I could hold her and tell her I [G]love her



Come Home [C] MelisaAm,F,G


 


Verse2:


[C]I went back inside the house


[Am] I picked up the telephone


And [F] let it ring till’ I nearly fell asleep


Listenin’ [G] to a busy tone


 


Then finally I [C] heard your voice


It was the recording [Am] on your machine


[F] My heart fell out of my chest


And I [G] just waited for the beep


 


Bridge 1


Chorus


 


Bridge 2:  (Barred chords work well here)


Then the [F] phone clicked a while, I heard you [G] voice and then I smiled


Because I [C] knew you’d heard what I had to [Am] say


I said [F] babe I’m beggin’ you, Now [G] girl it’s the truth


Won’t you [C] please just listen to [F]me?[G]


 


Chorus

Re: Come Home Melisa

Hey Blake - This has a nice sound but I need to hear it cause I already played it 2 different ways and both sounded good to me.

Re: Come Home Melisa

Very nice flow to this one. I had a bit of difficulty going into the chorus on the G chord, but playing it a bit slower it worked.

Nice song and a very good lyric. The only thing I noticed about the lyric was that you used the word 'I' a lot of times (only my opinion). Keep up the good work

Another great song, rooster3.  I hear it with a real howl and twang, like an old country ballad.  James
