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

I have an MP3 of me singing ( I 'mnot very good) but at least you can know what it is supposed to sound like . You would have to email me so I can send it - otherwise - I have no clue how to get the sound to you.

Re: New Original: How Can I Forget You (5 replies, posted in Songwriting)
Very cool - I had a similar experience in attempted soul saving - didn't work either. I am amazed at your guitar skills for not having played for a while. Maybe I should stop for a while and I would improve to that level ! 
Anyway - very very nice

I re-wrote this - changed chords - play it soft 4/4 Hope you like it ! I have trouble going from A to Bm but it sounds much better with these chords - fits the song nicer.

Re: A Woman Like That (8 replies, posted in Songwriting)
Just got a demo produced in Nashville . It sounds (in my humble and definitetly biased opinion ) pretty darn good. The company that produced it, is pitching it for me for a contract - but I am also free to pitch it - is anyone on chordie familiar with how to pitch to recording companies or even radio stations?
If you want to hear it, email me and I will send you an MP3 of it.

Re: kinda about stress relief /recognize women holding important jobs too (3 replies, posted in Songwriting)
no - I just listened to them from your links though - pretty cool songs I had never heard before. I was just sitting around and had heard a line from country song about cowgirls and it just kinda popped in to my head. I wrote a few lines - forgot about it - then waited about three weeks and accidentally came across what I had written and started playing some chord progressions - and it just kinda flowed from there. Thanks for checking it out though.
