Nothing worth while is easy. Take my job for instance lol. But it's true. I guess I was thinking this when I wrote "Everything is Hard" for the electric guitar. I did it in Aminor so it has a raspy kind of finish. Try it sometime....d
Everything is Hard
Am
too much trouble
D♭m B♭ Em
it seems like all there is
Em Am D7 I
will we ever cease from being tested
D♭ Am Em
pain is a tool of God
Am D7
the only relief is our slumbers
perils escape in dreams I
the sweet dawn gives recompense
guiding us for the Way
Em D♭m
your men will dream dreams
B♭ Am
your children will have vision
Em
close your eyes
D♭m B♭ Em
and feel the burning of the lamb
Am
His sacrifice
D♭m D7 Em
He will get you through
It plays kind of punk but....especially "perils escape in dreams" and "pain is a tool of God".
The effect is good, though. Do it as an encore and tell them I sent you lol.

I don't know why particularly that I started writing songs, but mainly because worrying about copyrighting is a pain in the neck. Plus I thought I had a good literary background or namely familiarity with words and thought to give it a go. I've always enjoyed the guitar and have aspired to play like the legends. How so much I have accomplished this is marginally affirmed. It's fun however to strum the melodies and bang out the lyrics. Certain chords like D and Ab almost talk to you.

There is a Girl
One day I was sitting in the McDonalds lobby and in walked a pre or post teenage girl Im not sure which. I thought that she probably had a lot on her mind...who to marry where to work and such. It inspired a song in me. I performed it rather rudimentary on keyboards via social media a while back.
Its in the rather pensive key of Fminor....here it is:
There is a girl
F
theres a girl
G
she gets a drink
Am
she goes to eat
C
on a mission
B♭
works in the sun
Thy will be done
E♭
Ive just begun
B♭
theres a girl
theres a girl
will be dating
but keep waiting
theres a girl
getting older
time flows freely
help the needy
theres a girl
autumns coming
look what Ive done
On a mission
theres a girl
kids are trained in
all they have to
and some more too
theres a girl
I was going to perform it on social media on the guitar, but Id rather live in front of people. I think Ive made enough videos for one lifetime!
