Topic: Broke My Heart

The progression runs Em- C- D through the entire song, the D is play like a C form moved up two frets and a A bass.

Em          C             D
So many songs I'm singing
about something I don't understand
Just keep on fighting from
this foxhole in sinking sand
How hard would it be
to just float away
till I find my refuge
and a place to stay

Chorus-

So I look up at the stars
but they don't give me what I'm wishing for
and it's hard
but I know they're singing
about something more X2

V2
Whisper in the darkness
write it on my walls
scream it in the silence
running down these halls
I need to leave you tonight
I need to turn off this darkness
turn on the lights

CHORUS

bridge-
fall from the moon
and I land on my knees
God broke my heart
and buried the keys
fall from the moon
and land on my knees
God broke my heart
oh what sweet release

second chorus-

So I look up at the stars
cuz I finally found what I'm looking for
and it was hard
but I heard them singing
about something more x2

Re: Broke My Heart

Hi Linusguitar,

These are great lyrics.

fall from the moon
and I land on my knees
God broke my heart
and buried the keys.

Id love to hear this recorded as i know from previous times you play  good guitar. I tried your website. But it aint there.

Post when you have uploaded please.

Thanks for sharing,

Old Doll.

Re: Broke My Heart

hi linusguitar.

it's truly funny, as i wrote a new song today that has the same chord progression [in part anyway].

you words are beautiful and well written, with a very emotive theme which seems to be an on-going theme lately. as lena has already said, i'd like to hear it recorded too.

well done

Ask not what Chordie can do for you, but what you can do for Chordie.

Re: Broke My Heart

Hey thanks guys!

I would record this and some of my other many songs, except I don't have good equipment. The two songs on my site are only guitar, and I hear these songs as full band, not too good with just guitar.
However, my friend's dad is building a recording studio, and when I can get these songs recording with drums and bass and piano and such, you will DEFINITELY hear them. lol
I just don't really want to do a cheap run when I can wait for good stuff, you know?

But thanks for the comments!

Re: Broke My Heart

Hi Linusguitar,
You write some very good songs. big_smile I'm the same way when it comes to recording. I hear it but can't make it sound like I hear it. Good to read that you have the opportunity to jam with friends and record. big_smile
You should look in the recording section as there are folks there that are into collabs when they're not busy.
Looking forwards to hearing a recording. big_smile
