neo - firstly congrats on being the first up this month with entries.  They were both good, I enjoyed them both.  But of the two songs, my favorite was TIME.  Your cover of the song suited you vocally and you played it really well.  Excellent choice of cover for you all round on TIME.  A thumbs up from me smile

Ok ... so keeping up with my tradition of using all the words in a song - here is a little diddy I wrote this morning.
hard to describe how i played it.....kinda of a root note pick and then strum the chord
probably the hardest song yet to have to use 'em all !  smile


Me and You by Jim Kenyon

[G] singing [C]songs and


[G]Kissing you [C] baby

[G]the fire [C]burns bright


[G]hearts beat to[C]gether

[C]Oooh, Oooh, Aaah and[G] Dee,dee,dee


We’re [D]painting rainbows, just [G]you and me




[C] la de da , and [G] do, do, do,


We’re [D]always together, just [C]me and [G] you


.





[G]every [C]time, I


[G]hold you [C]tight, I


[G]know it’s [C]love, it


[D]feels so [G] right


.




[G]Ya'got my [C] love and


[G] I’ve got[C] yours, we’ve


[G] got each [C]other, who


[D]Could ask for[G] more


.




Chorus


.






[C]Oooh, Oooh, Aaah and[G] Dee,dee,dee


We’re [D]painting rainbows, just [G]you and me


[C] la de da , and [G] do, do, do,


We’re [D]always together, just [C]me and [G] you

Hey Jim, so sweet, your guitar playing is improving and your singing too.     

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

Re: JANUARY 2023 FSOTM – WINE, SING, TIME, BEAT, SOUND EFFECTS

I haven't had a chance to enter any songs this month, with holiday season here for us, I have been away too much to record anything.  I might re-do this month's words during the course of the year as I had a few songs lined up to do that I just didn't get time to do.   Anyway, onto next month's FSOTM.
