Topic: Trying to Work it Through

I hadn’t planned on writing this but it was a running around in my head. Had a long night that ended with me needing to get a (new) stereo cable and adapter for plugging my microphone into the USB input device that came with the software I have. I thought why waste the opportunity - I'm still spending my evenings trying to record. <img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_biggrin.gif" border=0 alt="Very Happy">

Trying to Work it Through By Jeff Gilpin


April 4, 2007




Verse 1


[D]It gets so frustrating


As you’re [F#]working through the night


[G]Trying to work it through


And to [Gm]get it working right


But keep [D]at it


And you [A]know you’ll work it [D] through[A]




Verse 2


[D]It’s always something stupid


That you [F#]think you should have got


[G]But we’re all only human


Al[Gm]though some think their not


So keep [D]at it


And you [A]know you’ll work it [D] through[A]




Chorus


[F#]Don’t give up; keep at [G]it, you’re almost [D]there


[F#] What ever it takes just do [A]it and don’t des[A7]pair




Verse 3


[D]As you try to muddle through


All the [F#]problems that you’ve got



[G]Keep whittling them away


And you’ll [Gm]find they’re not a lot


So keep [D]at it


And you [A]know you’ll work it [D] through[A]




Verse 4


[D]If it helps to make it easier


Think of [F#]all who’ve come before


[G]Think of all their hardships


And how [Gm]many have been through more


So keep [D]at it


And you [A]know you’ll work it [D] through[A]




Chorus


[F#]Don’t give up; keep at [G]it, you’re almost [D]there


[F#] What ever it takes just do [A]it and don’t des[A7]pair




Verse 5


[D]Whatever comes along in life


That [F#]seems to tough a task


[G]You should know what to do


Yeah, you [Gm]shouldn’t have to ask


Just keep [D]at it


And you [A]know you’ll work it [D] through[Gm] [F#] [D]

Hey Jets60, another nifty song that conveys a good message.  I like it and will give it try this evening.  James

Re: Trying to Work it Through

Thanks James and Brad.  I wrote this mainly due spending the night trying to figure out what&#8217;s wrong with this s/w I got but it turned out to be my cables so I need to get some more. So, it is most likely that there will be no recording at least until this weekend at the earliest.

Re: Trying to Work it Through

Thats to bad. I want to hear the song. I had a go at it and think it's really good. I had a hard time catching the feel of it but I think after I hear it I'll have an easier time with it.
