Thanks you two. Yeah, relationships with daughters can be tricky. Hopefully, she'll get over it. She asked for time which led to the song title.     

Thanks Brian - Should have it up sometime this weekend.     

Hey Trevor. This is a very well-written song. You captured the pain of many things that happen when love is lost or no longer there. I also liked your chords, very fitting for the heart-felt theme of the song. Touching performance as well. I heard it a different way in my head before I listened. Great vocals and musical arrangement. Very polished and professional sound in my opinion.  Well done!     

Thanks, Jan and Pete. Jan, I am breaking in my Volt 276 audio interface which I actually got right before we left for vacation. Both my guitar and my mic for vocals are plugged into that interface, and as you noticed I'm getting a much cleaner sound by using it. I'm still working to switch from Audacity to Ableton Live Lite for my audio software but I'm not quite there yet. I'm taking my time and enjoying the change as I get to play with new toys.      

Another great song Jim! Well done!     

Love the video Jim. Your song was great as a duet and both singers did a fine job. Well done.     

Thanks Scott - It kind of fit as the chords came after the lyrics.     

Hey Richard - I enjoyed Ghost Train, especially the wonderful performance by you and your son. I could see how much fun you both had making music together and it showed in a very polished song in the end. I'm sure you'll come back many times to visit this song. Well done!     

Here is how I play it: https://soundcloud.com/jets60/another-ghost     

Thanks, Brian - Yep - I am a little early but I still need to record it once I'm ready. I wanted to find a song I wrote with the word ghost in it or maybe in a cover and nothing really fit. Then I thought about the other day when I was out giving my lawn the first mowing of the year and saw my friend's wife and mine talking. I later found out that my friend, the neighbor from the song, was not doing well and that he most likely wouldn't make it through the night. I haven't heard of seen anything since but I ended up putting up my mower then, after she told me, thinking the noise might be bothering him. I'm kind of unsure what to hope and pray for now. I want him to get better, but I also want his suffering to end. Anyway, I wrote this for the next month's offerings and as a memory of my friend.     

Hey all - I'm going to give it a try. I roughed out the words this morning (no chords yet). I'm relating it to the goings-on in my neck of the woods. I have a friend and neighbor fighting the big C who I haven't seen for a while but heard from his wife that he's not doing well. Here's what I have so far:

Another Ghost

Hey neighbor where’d you go
I remember seeing you all the time
You’d be working in your yard
I’d be working on mine
But we’d stop work in the middle
Set aside our weekly chore
Catch up on all the goings-on
In each other’s world

Another ghost
Among the many
Friends I’ve lost
And I’ve lost plenty 
Are you still around
Have you come to boast
How great it is now
That you’re a ghost

The truth is that I don’t even know
Whether or not you’re with us still
If you’ve made your final peace
And climbed that big old hill
What awaits us all I guess
Once our journey’s done
Settled in upon us
After our earthly run

Another ghost
Among the many
Friends I’ve lost
And I’ve lost plenty 
Are you still around
Have you come to boast
How great it is now
That you’re a ghost

I know before too long I’ll hear
The news of if you’re well
Neighbors will start sharing
Pass on the news after a spell
Who knows I might see you
Outworking in your yard again
And I’ll come over catch us up
All about how we’ve been

Will you be a ghost
Among the many
Friends I’ve lost
And I’ve lost plenty 
Is that really you
Have you come to boast
How great it is now
That you’re a ghost
