Topic: Don't It Make You Wonder.

This is a song I wrote several years ago. It's about not letting go.
It's called "Don't It Make You Wonder" 
It's got a country feel to it.
Intro and verses are appregated and choruses are strummed.

Words and music by: Chuck Hollaman

Verse:1

              G                 D                    G7                    C
When I wake up in the morning, and I drink my cup of coffee,

   G                           D
I sit and I think about you.

                G                         D                        G7                C   
And yes I wonder, what your doing, where your at, who your screwing,

Well baby, you know, it's not me.

Chorus:

       Am                           C/G

Oh, don't it make you wonder.

So, when you wake up in the morning, and you drink your cup of coffee,

            G                         D
Do you sit and think about me?

                  G                        D                      G7              C
And do you wonder, what I'm doing, where I'm at, who I'm screwing,

Well baby it remains to be seen.

Hey, daddycool,
       
        Appreggated, not sure of the spelling, means to pick strings[while holding a chord shape] one   
        at a time. I'm going to try to record this song, and then you'll know what it is. I guess you
        could say that appregated is Like finger picking, only with a pick. I really like this site!!!

Getfiddle,

I like this song of yours. Sounds like the Man is still in love.

I love fingerpicking . But its hard to break the habit once started.

Re: Don't It Make You Wonder.

hi getfiddle, welcome to our parlour, sit yourself down and have a cup of tea, sorry coffee. a cheeky little number if i'm not mistaken, stings a little bit, are you taking a poke at someone? bitter experience make the best songs.

i don't want to be picky, but i believe it's spelt arpeggio, meaning plucked and running up and down the piano keys, or indeed the guitar strings, or even the fiddle!!!

great song, keep 'em coming
