Topic: lyrics only right now...

i didn't really feel like learning how to put the chords in here yet so right now its just lyrics... has kind of a bluesy feel but i haven't worked out the melody.
Kind of E G A (switch back and forth from A to A7 and then put your pinky on the 3rd fret e string... anyway like i said a work in progress)

Well I asked the blues man
Where does the truth lie?
Said 'its in the hands
of the guitar man
And in the blues he cries...

Ao I asked the blues man
What there was to lose
Said' If you want to bend
them guitar strings
You gotta pay your dues..

-Anyway the whole song is very unfinished and Im not done working evrything out but im playing with this verse-

Living in the shadow
Of black lies wrapped in white
Can;t trust your mind
To a world thats blind
If you want to see the light


... not even sure where im putting that one yet so ANYWAY comments/ suggestions? Just thought I'd out it out there and see what ya'll think

Sounds awesome

You have to forget about what other people say; when you're supposed to die, when you're supposed to be lovin'. You have to forget about all these things. You have to go on and be crazy. Craziness is like heaven.

Re: lyrics only right now...

yeah its a lot of fun... i worked out this thing where you go up to the high e string fifth fret and slide back down to third fret then kind of just walk it back down and end on the second fret g string
sometimes i like to tune down a half step to give it that deeper sound.
