I like this very much and can't wait to hear the full band giving it what for.

I kinda thought that's what the mutt was up to. As you've got video evidence are you taking it to the cops so they can prosecute? At first I thought she might be photo bombing you....or should that be video bombing?

You've got more guts than me, I couldn't give full volume in a park on my own. Did you get any busking pennies?

thanks to everyone for taking the time to read/listen to the song, i'll begin with the last and work my way up....
ark, this song more or less wrote itself it took 10 minutes and the recording about an hour with practises and cock-ups!

thanks jim, you're a mate, unfortunately we lost, the old enemy scored in the last minute, best team won on the day. this song i wrote on wednesday last, from (as usual) a strumming session leading to a chord sequence leading to the words, as i said to tony (arkady) it took all of 10 minutes and the story just flowed. it wasn't planned it wrote itself...kinda!

thank you jandle, i had 3 gigs last weekend (2 on saturday) so my voice felt a little raw, but it seems like it worked out right.

dino & grah, thanks for the read and listen and giving me encouragement. this was a quickie and it appears quickies do the trick.

I used to have a program that once you had the beat you could name the chords and how many beats they played for. Unfortunately it was designed for XP and is now useless. That doesn't help does it? Sorry. hmm

Hi Phill

Good to hear from you. Dondra is doing great. Walking on her own, driving, etc., etc. It's all on the blog if you would care to take a look.

I myself am at my neuro-psych doc being evaluated to see if I'm  any crazier than I was 6 months ago. wink.

Thanks

Bill

IS THAT POSSIBLE? big_smile

give my love to dondra, glad she's on the up and don't take any (do do's) from those doctors

You could say this is about an assumed and possibly incorrect assumption.

Who Did I Kill?Undefined


(INTRO; [Ab-Eb-Db-Eb| Ab-Eb-Db-Ab])




[Fm] When I woke-up that morning, there was...


[Ab] Blood upon the walls.


[Bbm] Checked all over me, but I [Db] couldn't find the [Eb] cause.


So I [Fm] put my things in my backpack.


[Ab] Walked out of that town.


[Bbm] Hoped they wouldn't find a reason, to [Db] come and hunt me [Eb] down.




                                     (CHORUS)




So I'm...[Db] walking through the [Ab] desert.


And I'm...[Fm] climbing over [Eb] hills.


[Db] Waking-up in the [Ab] middle of the night.


[Fm] Wondering who I [Eb] killed.


Did I [Fm] kill?




(Same chords all the way through unless stated)





Don't have a TV, so I never hear the news.


Is there a man hunt coming. Who did they accuse?


I'm feeling so tired – and I stink like a rat.


Where ever I'm going I ain't ever going back.




                         (CHORUS)




I've come to the end I can't take anymore.


Living like a feral beast – a man on the run.


If I go back and tell them, admit to it all.


I'm gonna hang anyway, I can't wait anymore.




{soc]




Some people out walking come to a tree.


Found a boy hanging there, with a note on his sleeve...saying...


[Db] Who [Eb] did I [Fm] kill?”
