Re: SUGGESTIONS: APRIL 2023 - SEE THE WORDS IN THE TOPIC FOR THIS MONTH

well, I had to actually look up what a frigging " wowser" was ( thank you for that whoever suggested that one !) smile   lol

But I ended up writing a song this morning that was able to use all of the suggested words once again.

Here it is -let me know what you think.  I'm sure I will tweak it a bit going forward.


Rise Up From The Dust By Jim Kenyon


Verse 1


.




[Em]The sounds of lonely winds, and the [A]secrets they [Em]hide


[Em]just a prelude to the misery that [A] she keeps in[Em]side


Oh,[Em]her heart was shattered, now she’s[A] looking for a way [Em]out


[Em]and leave behind the past, but [A]she’s drowning in [Em]doubt


.




Verse 2


.




[Em]She tries to live in the present, but her [A]mind’s still in the [Em]past


[Em]she caters to what she might lose, [A]believing nothing will [Em] last


[Em]blinded by tears and fears, and what the[A] wowsers might [Em]say


[Em]struggling to be free, and to live for [A]love on some other [Em]day




.






chorus


now girl, [A]before you are the doors to start again,


and a [Em] fight to rise up from the dust


but [A]you must chose to leave your solitude,


just as[Em] twilight deepens into the dusk


.



[A]it’s time for you to take a leap of faith,


and be[Em]lieve that you are strong


just [A]open up your heart and find love again


and [B7]live life to the [A]fullest , before it’s [Em]gone


.


Verse 3


.




[Em]it’s not easy to find a new song, in the [A] jukebox we call [Em]life


[Em]despatchers send us doubts, they say[A] love cuts you like a[Em] knife


[Em]but the past is the past for a reason. It's [A] been, and now it is [Em]gone


[Em] Woman, it’s time to look ahead, yeah, it’s [A]time to move [Em]on


.






chorus


now girl, [A]before you are the doors to start again,


and a [Em] fight to rise up from the dust


but [A]you must chose to leave your solitude,


just as[Em] twilight deepens into the dusk


.


[A]it’s time for you to take a leap of faith,


and be[Em]lieve that you are strong


just [A]open up your heart and find love again


and [B7]live life to the [A]fullest , before it’s [Em]gone

TIGLJK, oh man, that is so clever!  You got them all again!  I am to blame for the words this month, including ~Wowser`~ lol but it didn't stop you and you managed to put that and the rest into your song, brilliant!  I like the song you have written, its message as well.  So, I applaud you Jim smile
