This is called Lovers and Players and it was just a fun bouncy melody that came to me playing the Bm chord and following it from there. Sometimes when you are putting together a song, you start with a fun melody and build on it. That’s what I did.
The boys and I are taking a few weeks off for the holidays and then it’s back to practicing to fine tune some songs and add some more to our playlist. I will post more vids when we get them. I’m not telling the boys, but my personal time frame for us to be available to start taking gigs is July 1.
That isn’t unrealistic, and I am still writing more songs to add to our repertoire.
We still have to put a nice website together, take a band pic, and start getting our brand out there.
I’m chompin’ at the bit…
If you have ever been onstage and performed for an appreciative audience, you know exactly what I am talking about…
Time’s a wastin’!
Lovers and Players
Verse I
Baby it’s cold outside
But it’s hotter than hell in here
I’m trying to find a way
To make it all disappear
We started out just fine
And then you told me
You were meant to be alone and I was
Just another one in a long line of your
Chorus
Lovers and Players
Dreamers and boys
Just another one of your toys
And I know that you think
That you know where it’s at
I thought I taught you better than that
Verse II
Baby it’s hot outside
But it’s freezing in your heart
Everyone buts me
Thinks that I should have known from the start
We started out just fine
And then you told me
You were meant to be alone and I was
Just another one in a long line of your
Repeat chorus
Verse III
Baby let’s stay inside
Let the fire keep us warm
Girl I swear to you
I’ll protect you from all harm
We started out just fine
But then you told me
You were meant to be alone and I was
Just another one in a long line of your
Repeat chorus
end on Bm chord.
I’ll post my next song in tomorrow’s blog.
It is classic blues out of A.
Stay well.
