Title - Sympathy empathy – Creative output
I havent got much to showfor this week though I have created a working titlefor my firstsong" Streamline".
Despite this I am still yet to upload the lyricsand a rough transcription for my 2nd song so here they are.
Conscience - title fight chord but faster do 4 the take middle finger off4. every 4th bar bend on
ring finger
verse
Telling myself to give up
telling myself I’m not worth enough
telling myself to just shut
telling myself I’m not worth it.
!!! - go to 11 on a then 13 on d and 11 on d 3 times.
What is this supposed to mean?
what am I supposed to do?
what is this gonna do?
who am I supposed to be?
!!!
Chorus - em on 4th to 2nd to 6th 2nd time on 6th do rhythmic strum - sing octave higher.
I don’t really care who knows.
I wanna go.
I don’t really care who shows.
but if I go, I go alone
Verse
Who is this gonna be?
who am I supposed to be?
why are you asking all these?
fu**ing stupid questions
!!!
It comes it goes if it comes it flies.
I wanna love I wanna fell.
but I can’t be fu**ed if it's not real
yeah
!!!
Chorus
I don’t really care who knows
I wanna go
I don’t really care who shows
but if I go I go alone
tell him to take it slow
he wants to grow
inside a hole
if he grows he grows alone
Outro - pick title fight chord without middle finger then go up to 11th 9th too maybe 14 and 16
could do solo here or go back out into loud maybe another chorus but could end here.
