Topic: Oh, yeah!? A title........Uhmmm..........Suggestions Please!

Haven't written from the heart in so long I can't remember. Now I just have to wait for the "That sounds just like...." and "Those are lines from...."

Anyway,

CAPO: 2nd Fret - Strings 5 thru' 1, only!
Slow/Steady March with Groove.
Strum: 1 + 2 + 1 _ 2 + _ + 2 ("_" indicates no strum on beat).
Riff: Hammer on 1st & 3rd strings of open D open first 1 on/hold for + 2 + 1 _ open 2 0n + _ + = open 4th string D 2 = open 5th A.

Clear as mud!

[D]I can feel the rain but I'm still smilin'




[D]I know above the clouds the sun's still shinin'




[G]I know the sun will come before summer's [D]gone


[G]I know that love will get here before too [A]long


[D]I dream my dreams and my dream is workin'


[D]I can look at the sky, but I'm not shirkin'


[G]You look at me like I've done something w[D]rong


[G]You try to make me feel like I don't bel[A]ong


CHORUS




[G]What doesn't [A]kill me only [Bm]serves to [A]make me [G]stronger





[D][G]Everything will [A]come right in the [D]end


[G]If you've got [A]trouble, it means that the [Bm]story [A]goes on [G]longer


[D] [G]You're only unh[A]appy 'cause it's not the [D]end


[D]I'm going on - ahead I'm movin'


[D]And each step is hard but each step is provin'


[G]That your stoney walls can fall on [D]you


[G]You build them up then what will you [A]do?


CHORUS X 2




Last line slow to hold




[D]I'm lookin' at the sky and the sun is shinin'

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

Re: Oh, yeah!? A title........Uhmmm..........Suggestions Please!

How about "End" for the title. Simple and sweet.

Re: Oh, yeah!? A title........Uhmmm..........Suggestions Please!

really, really good! not sure if how i played it was how you wrote it, but i love the lyrics. Maybe "Storytime Trouble" as i title lol, and i like that idea "workin a dream"

Re: Oh, yeah!? A title........Uhmmm..........Suggestions Please!

Nice writing JJ :-)

It seems your memory is not as short as you thought it was or you are one of those people that can pick up right where they left off.
More people should think like this and it would be a happier world.
I also am looking forwards to hearing this piece...soon maybe?

Some good titles here, I like "Working a Dream" Nice one Badeye.

Hey Daddycool, Phill, Geoaguiar, Mightmouseplaysguitar! (great name cool ) and Kanadian Ken! (ha Ken, soaz!)

Thanks for the comments and title suggestions, I like all of 'em! cool

I pulled an all-nighter on Monday when this popped out from nowhere. I spent the next day learning it and went to post when at the start I realised I had no title - DOH!

I should give a credit to Stewart, who I met on the Fri/Sat B4 writing this, who told me a phrase that inspired the chorus; I couldn't remember it word for word, but the essence is there!

Can't make up my mind about the title thinking I should put in the alternative last line on the chorus and should I have put in the middle 8 and pulled it if I didn't like it? IDK!

Re: Oh, yeah!? A title........Uhmmm..........Suggestions Please!

I didn't really follow what you just wrote, but as regards the title, my vote goes for Working a dream - it's succinct and what's more, it hasn't been used by anyone else... unless anyone knows otherwise smile
