I have to say, I read it as a cross between John Denvers Toledo Ohio and Willy. I like it also. just bought a new reverb, when it gets here I am gonna play with this song.

Interesting song Beamer sounds like a guy been dumped due to treatment this lady received from another man. Also maybe her struggling to have a good relationship after having been through a bad one.
spot on brother. spot on! I told her as much also. I always hated hearing "You need to heal" but i guess they were right. THIS lady, definatly needs to heal, and get her ducks in a not so chaotic row.
I visited with her later, and ya know what, I am glad that I moved on. she just keeps going in circles.

Love the sound of your 12er, very mellow. Now for the bad news....I think your chord structure will make a great (last?)love song, but what you played is in 4:4 time, 6:4 is a waltz time with twice as many beats to each bar. Do you have any stomp boxes with a metronome? Or download from the net. Look forward to hearing the finished recording.
Well as I said I was tryiong to play 6/8 lol, so 4/4 it is. I was trying to emphasize the 1 and 4. (the top of the page says 6/8 or 4/4 lol so I get a slight dispensation I would think )
OH well, it works.
I did create a drum track in 6/8 on EZ drummer so maybe then Ill get it correct. I have to re record it in the DAW and we will see how I do. Otherwise I switch the drum track to 4/4 LOL.

What a great song Scott. Tells it like the way it is for a lot of folks. And not just for Christians it applies to other religiouns just as much although some are more open about it than others. But it all comes down to the same thing .
I dont find this offensive its an observation of the way some are .
Exactly, yet the uber religious and book thumpers cant get past the hook. Nor that fact that its 100% accurate. You should see the loooks I get when I pull up beside some cars or trucks (usually with a bunch of Jesus stickers and stuff LOL) { As As Diamond Head wrote and Metalica covered: AM I EVIL, (YES IAM) LOLOLOL}

I have discovered that this must truly be THE most feared song out there because no one will post it with the chords and lyrics together. THIS MUST BE THE MOST UNHOLY, ABOMINABLE AND IRE RAISING song ever. CONGRATULATIONS from me to THE CIRCLE JERKS and the song from 1985s album WONDERFUL.
What is this vile song? Ill tell you it’s the greatest in your face social commentary I have heard and it still rings true today!
Wait, I still need to tell you. It is………
KILLING FOR JESUS!
All across the world
The holy armies on a tear
Ripping through the planet's faiths
Population's running scared
Christianity's all around
Zealots they abound
I wanna blow them to pieces 'cause I'm...
Killing for Jesus (X4)
With God on my side
The holy armies gonna ride
Go on a rampage
To rape, plunder and pillage
Insanity's everywhere
Must be something in the air
I wanna blow them to pieces 'cause I'm...
Killing for Jesus (X4)
no im never bored
when im a-killin for the lord.
now ive seen the light-
hell mary, ive got jesus on my side!!
