KAP - That was a very nice song ! I enjoyed the guitar playing - the story is very Special. I have an affinity for being a cowboy - so it hit home. I thought you sound was very heartfelt- like you were really the subject of the song. I also liked how you did the video - blending pics with you performing - that was awesome! Thanks for the peak, keep sending them out !

Phill
I listened to it on your myspace website - sounds very nice... captured the emotion of the moment I think ..... quite sad
I did have that thought from the Seinfeld episode where George Costanza says - " it's not you it's me" pop into my head though, and it made me smile in the middle of this sad song. 
Well done though. It is funny how things pop into your head for songs....... showers, riding in car, walking with the dog --- they just seem to come out anywhere they choose.
anyway - thanks for a nice song Phill

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

I changed the chords - using a C7 and B7 in the last the last line of each verse - Picked u the idea from a tip from guitar coach = Mike Hayes - Australia ---- it sounds so mucher better - kinda like a jazzy country sound. Kudos to Mike !! Thanx
