This is a song I wrote recently. Let me know what you guys think. Enjoy it lol I like it. The song is in regular tuning with a partial capo on the 2nd fret covering all the strings but the top two.

LYRICS::::::::
V1: Goodbye Mountains and open spaces.
Old friends and older faces.
I pack my bags, turn the key, and hit the gas.
I make my way to the land of the beaches.
Drive past the old south and Georgia peaches
Another memory for every road I pass.

V2: I kiss both of my grandmothers
My parents and my brother
They are the ones I will miss the most
Like sand time slips right through my hands
Blown away before I get a chance to land
One minute I'm here the next I'm on the coast.

PC1: If home is really where the heart is
Did I just leave it there?
And is the grass really greener over here,
It looked that way I swear

PC2: If this is such a small, small world
How could I feel alone?
I guess I'm not in Kansas anymore
And I'm a long, long way from home

CHORUS: I'm leaving almost Heaven in West Virginia,
for miles and miles of 95.
This old world keeps turning,
As I make my journey
But I won't fight it,
I'll just hop in ... and ride

BRIDGE: And I will ride until I find my place
Wherever it may be
Yet when I get to this new place
I find the steps that I retrace
Have led me to the place I started in.

  • Well done. I love songs like this. They sound great as an acoustic, but have so much potential to be an amazing electric song.

    I want to hear you multi-track this song and ad some violin.
