Re: Love on the Line (7 replies, posted in Songwriting)
I made changes to the lyrics, and subsequently changed the title to "MORE". I couldn't figure out how to change in on the listing.,S0 it says "Love on the Line" but the song is called MORE. Sorry.

Change of verse - hope you like it . I recorded it and sent to my daughter - despite my terrible singing voice -she loved it. I wrote this last year 'cuz I was missing her as she moved to Florida. Now she has moved even farther away ( Seattle) With Christmas around the corner - thought I would share. Just thinking of all our armed forces away from their loved ones - they must feel way worse than I do. God bless our troops - keep 'em safe till they do finally come through that door to their home. Hope it sounds good to you.

Re: Blue Train - "bluesy" song I wrote (9 replies, posted in Songwriting)
I like that progression b/c you can pause for a beat or two on the B7 to make it real bluesy . I am not really a a very good guitarist.... and I certainly am not a singer - but I love to dabble in chords and write lyrics. I mainly just play for relaxation from teaching and coaching. I really like Chordie as well b/c it gives you a chance to see what others are doing ( some really great stuff!) and also get some feedback to improve your own . Chordie is awesome!

Re: Blue Train - "bluesy" song I wrote (9 replies, posted in Songwriting)
Hi Artie! WHat I do is just use my thumb and forefinger to pluck individual strings of the chord - kinda soft - as a lead into the full chords of the song. I usually play them a bit soft as well. Have fun and enjoy it . I really like the song - my favorite one that I have written
Thanks for kind words - Jim

Re: Blue Train - "bluesy" song I wrote (9 replies, posted in Songwriting)
Thank you. My feeling is that if it sounds good to you the way you play it, then that is how I would want it played. I actually wrote it one night after my buddy told me his wife was leaving him. I was trying to imagine what that felt like. Enjoy, and play on brother !! JK
