This is a song I've been working on for the past 6 months. I'm still experimenting with structure, rhythm and chords but this is pretty much the song. Let me know what you think! Here are the lyrics:

Fading scent and sight
Brings me tears
The longer I wait to realize
The more I follow fear
And I must be alone

Promise me truth
My love, my dear
Tell me I'm not gone
I'm just leaving here
And there's no going home

Finding it all in too much confusion
This beautiful slide too slow
If love won't heal my soul
I fear this beautiful slide will go

Restless movements
Until flight takes me off
And into silence...
This is where I'm drawn
Then blown out from the wind
Oh, am I finally in?

Finding it all in too much confusion
This beautiful slide too slow
If love won't heal my soul
I fear this beautiful slide will go

This hand on my face reminds me I'm still here
Just hold me closer until time disappears
Then slowly slipping, I see the only sun
But when I touch this light I will be someone

If love won't heal my soul
I fear this beautiful slide will go

Corey if you don't mind i've also got a quick question to do with learning guitar..I've bin learning guitar for only about a year now..But only now ive bin looking into starting to learn how to transcribe ..and start to learn from ear ( i wish i started earlier )..I dont get much out of learning songs off tabs etc..Im just wondering if you think this is a good idea and worth learning to do..? Would really appreciate your feed back and opinion

[coreyvdh]

no worries, first off thank you for all the support and keeping up with my videos, i owe you any help i can offer. my opinion is that you should always be a student.. of life and of what your passionate about. learning how to transcribe music is brilliant and something many overlook. you'll be able to see music from an entirely different perspective. learning music by ear is a tremendous skill, though difficult to attain it is quite rewarding. you're doing all the right things! stay in touch :)

[T0kedd]

Thanks alot for feedback mate really appreciate it..I've heard transcribing is tough but hey the rewards to me personally will definetly be worth it..I'll let you know how i progress :)..Also theres something that has frustrated me for a very long time since i started watching your vids..and that is the amount of views you have..You honestly should have so many more..Im going to start trying to get more people that i know to check you out .. Because im sure they will be pleased..Take care

[coreyvdh]

thanks so much, i really do appreciate it. i'm not too worried about having a lot of views.. its nice to see a couple of the videos really take off but when it comes down to it, i truly enjoy having viewers like you who keep coming back and are sincere with their thoughts. dont get me wrong, it would be cool to have 10 million views but i'm not complaining or anything. i just like the idea that people are hearing my music. so thank you for that.

Wooow!

The intro is amazing, you're really a genius

[meehore]

this is fantastic dude! parts of it reminded me of "Grace" by Jeff Buckley (which isn't a bad thing i'm sure you know ;).) Seeing someone as talented as you makes me feel like theres still some hope for music after all! :D

[BRD85]

Dude God has blessed you with a talent.

[bpurfiel]

Very, very, very good. Amazing work just like your other vids. I'm teaching myself to play guitar and your original songs are just as inspiring as your tutorials are helpful. Keep it up.

[Joshmv14]

Dude, you are awesome :D

[BenjaminHarrer]

Someone sign this guy to a major label already! Band or no band there is no doubt he'll make it big. Keep progressing Corey and we'll see you at the top.

[mattygoonler]

[OriginalZeroNM]

Man, I have no idea how many times I have listened to this,but I love it!!!!!! You have a wonderful voice,the song is extremely catchy,the lyrics are awesome,and you are a beast at guitar.Whatever you are doing, keep it up man.

[MastaSlur777]

Dude you need to get signed if you're not already. Seriously. You're really good

perfection

[EGeasy]

Hey Corey!

Great song! I really like your progressions. You really try to make something special with the guitar specifically. Is this in alternative tuning, cause i'm trying to figure it out.....

Anyways, keep exploring your skills on the fretboard, cause beside a great singer, you're an excellent guitarist!

Cheers from Amsterdam,

Eric
