Topic: HEAVEN OR H#LL

Heaven or H#ll
Scott Sailer / Tia Nieuwsma
2/7/2020

     
G                 
Whether I go to heaven
C
Or if I shall end  in hell,
Bm
You know that I have lived my life.
Am
And it’s just as well.

G
I loved a lot of women
C
From this I cannot hide,
Bm
Some may have hated me
Em
Others call me a liar

BRAKE : Am(x2)  B(x2) Am(x2)  B(x2)  (end on B)

G                 
Whether I go to heaven
C
Or if I end up in Hell,
Bm
You know that I have lived my life.
Am
And it’s just as well.

G
Yes I have had my regrets
C
But I have had a lot of fun
Bm
Let those who know me
Em
Judge what I have done

BRAKE : Am(x2)  B(x2) Am(x2)  B(x2)  (end on B)

G                 
Whether I go to heaven
C
Or if I end up in Hell,
Bm
You know that I have lived my life.
Am
And it’s just as well.

G
I have waltz with angels,
C
And danced with the Devils
Bm                               
the angels gave up trying,
Em
So we all burn up the track.

BRIDGE:  Am B C D  (x2)

G                 
Whether I go to heaven
C
Or if I end up in Hell,
Bm
You know that I have lived my life.
Am
And it’s just as well.

I like it Beamer,  I'd like to hear you play it.

Re: HEAVEN OR H#LL

A very tongue in cheek sort of a song. Had a quick run through and sort of changed the last line very slightly. Hope you don't mind.

And with the devil we all burn up the track
Wether I go to heaven
Or if I end up in h#ll
You know that I have lived my life
And won't be coming back

I do apologise but it sort of works for me.

Re: HEAVEN OR H#LL

So, We worked this a bit at pratice sunday, but we had to work out rough spots.  this link is just a scratch track with my son cory  doing a beat.  he is using a dbl kick pedal on the kick drum, (I am not a fan of it for this song but it did work pretty good.  He is too young to actually "get" where I am tying to come from.)
He did get me playing mostly in the pocket though!  big_smile

Re: HEAVEN OR H#LL

I would delete “Key of C” as you’ve written some cool modulations in here but no part of it is in C smile

Well I knew I should have made a note of which variation of the progressions  from ALLCHORDS web page.  it was one of them in C or G .  I can't remeber where I came up with the A#/Bb except maybe it was just what sounded good to me. LOLOL big_smile

Re: HEAVEN OR H#LL

my vocals suck here , and for some reason we had a hard time gelling last night. (thursdays seem to be going that way) but hereis a try at it from last night.

I also think an acoustic guitar would be a good addition.  looking at running stereo clean out of my RP and one dirty channel and one acoustic.

Re: HEAVEN OR H#LL

Hi Beamer. I like your words so I looked for it via the link but SoundCloud say they can't find the song. I dare say you'll put it up again?     

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

Re: HEAVEN OR H#LL

Well I don’t know what happened to the original link.  I will re-record it an maybe sing it better.
Last night I was playing it with the Em and to me it doesn’t sit right.  Sounds good on piano but from B to Em there is not much of a change.
