[AugustWest]

This is a new song I just wrote like 5 minutes ago. I think it's shit but I find sometimes I'm pretty hard on myself. So before I embarasse myself by presenting it to my band what do you guys think? Be honest you won't hurt my feelings.

The verse structure is sort of a E to A thing but the A is textured with a A hammered to Asus4 back to A sort of like the opening to "tangled up in blue"


E...... A..Asus4.A E.....A..Asus4.....A
Carry me back lord, I'm in no shape to try

Keep me sheltered, I'm afraid to die

Cold winds are blowing, Across my neck
Weighed down and heading, straight off the track

Chorus:

A......................E....................
Carry me back lord to when the sands of time
A.......................B
They started falling on me
C#m.........Am........E
Most of all carry me back
A............................E
This ain't the man I want to be

Verse 2.

What man can stop, This wicked game

Tooth for tooth till, we end up the same

Worries drowned away by, a barrel of Gin

Honor traded long ago for, a bucket of sin

Chorus:

Verse 3

How many ways, can a man truly fall

Swear by my life, I've felt them all

Never satisfied in, warnings you gave

Till I felt you, start digging my grave

Chorus:


Well there you go. It's rough but there it is. Thanks!
