Topic: Long As Your Happy

Unfortunately when I play piano or guitar it is all done by feel.  I would put this in as a song if I had the know  how.. I have tried to make it work as a song but my bad piano playing    and singing get in the way. I put it up on soundcloud in the hope oneday someone might have a go at making it into better song.

                             Long As Your Happy

I can remember seeing  the rain on the window pane
One summer many years ago.
Were waiting to go out.
You all dressed up nice in your best dress.
You couldn't wait to get out.
Next thing I noticed you had gone outside the door.
Your running in the yard completly wet.
Your best dress was a mess as youd fallen in the mud.
And your hair was a bit of a mess.
Your  mother was unhappy.
Why did you let her go out.
All I could say was this.
As long as she's happy.
As long as your happy.
I couldn't care less.
I couldn't care less about that dress.
When I saw you smiling at me.
As long as your happy.
As long as your happy I couldn't care  less.
I wouldn't worry if your hair was in a mess.
All I worry about is  your beautiful smile.
And I wouldn't worry to much about the mess
As long as your happy.
As your happy.
As long as your happy
I don't give a damn about the mess.

Re: Long As Your Happy

Peatle as a father of four and grandfather of eleven I understand each and every sentiment.

Your recording is quite dramatic but your vocals are very low in the mix. All I have to listen is my tablet so as I don't have my guitar either a test drive will have to wait till Tuesday or Wednesday, maybe Thursday but I will do my best. Great work.

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

Cheers Phill I recorded it  with no microphones just on my cell phone placed next to the piano.. I would be honoured and completly thrilled  if you gave it a go. Thank you for giving me a listen and feed back.
