i like it very much, i love the way you've worked "shooting star" into the end of each verse. cant wait to hear it, any chance?

Ask not what Chordie can do for you, but what you can do for Chordie.

Re: Shooting Star (Myattempt at a little rockin' music instead of country)

Thank you Phill, Dino, and Graham.   I had that tune  in my head for about two years and this morning it just decided to come out -
I 've got no clue why !
I really wish I had a voice that was more than garbage, then I might make a recording.   

The Bm is always a struggle for me to play , but I'm glad I used it.

Graham, I just listened to your band on your website, you are very talented!!  How is it that you live in Crete ?

Thanks again to all,
Jim

Great lyrics

Thanks  for  the  compliment  Jim glad  you  like  the  vids .Currently  we are now  only  doing  summer time  in Crete it  gets  a  bit  damp  here in the  winter months and  nothing  much  only  raki  brewing  goes  on ,I'm here  for  xmas  but  its  back  to  the  UK   for  new year and  then   maybe for  much  of  2015 if  certain things  happen ,its  too  early  to  say   yet but it looks  like  we  may  be  commuting  next  year .
Re  the  song get a  sound  cloud  account  and  play it  its  great I'm sure  your  voice  will  be  much  better  than you  say the  first  step  is  the  hardest  and  once  you take  it  you'll  be  singing like  a  bird

Beamer

you're right on brother - sounds much better - more rockin', without the Capo - thanks for the tip.  ( I'm not too great at Barr Chords though - working at 'em) I made a couple small lyric changes on the third line of each verse - it seems to make a smoother transition to the fourth line  - remember - it's my first rock song smile
