{t:The Planet}
{st:by; B. McDougall}
{c:March 17, 2006}

[D]Its Friday on the [A]planet,
[G]The weekend's almost [D]here,
[D]You can't take things for [A]granted,
[G]They may just [D]disappear.

[D]Another day on the [A]planet,
[G]I think I'll go [D]outside,
[D]I'm gonna do my [A]part you know
[G]To keep her on my [D]side

{soc}
. . . . Chorus . . . .
[E]And this thing we call [B7]Mother Earth,
[E]We can't let her slip [B7]away,
[E]We got to take good care [B7]of her,
[E]We got to find a better [B7]way.
{eoc}

[D]If you think about the [A]planet
[G]Its lagging far [D]behind,
[D]People must get [A]together,
[G]And show some real good [D]kind.

[D]Everyday on the [A]planet
[G]Is a blessing in [D]disguise,
[D]If we all [A]do our part
[G]It'll last a long long [D]time.

. . . . Repeat Chorus . . . .
[/SONG]

Re: "The Planet" by Badeye

Glorious good morning badeye!  I just saw your posting and took the liberty of including the necessary coding to make it "all purdy like".


Good little song - I agree with the sentiment and try to do my part each day by minimizing my impact and conserving resources.


All that was missing in your original post were some of the key starting and ending commands.  I'll send the edited version via private message so you can examine the details.


Look forward to seeing more of your stuff!  James

Re: "The Planet" by Badeye

A nice song you have there badeye and something we should all try to emulate by doing our bit to look after this planet we live on.


Well done,


Roger

Re: "The Planet" by Badeye

Hey Badeye,

Great song - only change I would suggest would be changing from a B7 to an E7 on the last line of the chorus. I think it transitions to to next verse but it is you song to tinker with and good the way it is as well.


thanks,

Re: "The Planet" by Badeye

Hey badeye,

No problem! I just used the 'Search' at the top of the page. Your name for author and search the Songwriting section. A handy accessory to the site. I could not find the one about your dog though and I am sure you posed one. It may be in the very long thread "Songwriters Circle" as I did not look through that.

Re: "The Planet" by Badeye

hi badeye,

i'm guessing the song is about global warming, war, violence and the hope that one day we can bring all strife to an end?

i saw a tv programme this week that points out that global dimming is also a problem.
all the extra clouds being produced by car emissions and factory pollution, are actually moving the monsoon areas northward, so that places that rely on the monsoons are not getting them. on the other hand the extra cloud cover is reflecting the suns rays and so reducing the warming effect!!!

don't you wish you hadn't started this line?

a fine song all the same...let's all get our act together and return the world to peace and love...power to the people

Re: "The Planet" by Badeye

Re: "The Planet" by Badeye

Great tune badeye. I'm with you on the 'Green' way of thought, have been since I took my first trip to the city dump and witnessed first hand, all of the massive waste. No one person can do it all but a little preventative actions by many makes a huge difference...........

Give everything but up.
