I have some lyrics to rap out/add to this song – words that came while on the coach trip from Pembrokeshire to Heathrow.  Hopefully i’ll get a little time over next few days to work on it.  I have a melody forming too…

Capo  2

16/02/18 Just this second put a simple picking pattern together…similar to most of my other stuff unfortunately.  A bit like the ‘jealous’ song but with a different melody.  It’s a start however

Revolves (at this precise moment) around:

C  Em  F   G

C  F   G   C

Am    Em

F  G

 

Verse 1

C                                                   Em

I’m happy cause i’m gonna go away

F                                                G

Excited to be goin on a holiday

C                                                                              F

Yeah I’ve broken outta jail & i’m on my way to Wales

G                                                       C

About to set sail n write a new tale

Am                                                                 Em

But there’s just one thing that’s gettin me down

F                                                                                         G

And that one little thing, yeah, it’s really bringin me down

F7

There’s a big black butterfly flappin around (inside)

G

Tearin me apart, yeah, it’s takin me down

Am                                                                                  Em

And I know your friends they ain’t gonna let you down

F

But i’m leavin town tomorrow

G                                                                  Am

And I don’t wanna leave you on your own

G                                                         C

I just don’t wanna leave you all alone

Chorus  ???

Heard you’re not alone back home

Good-in-the-hood hangin out in subzero

Green to subzero, Serene to subzero

Farmhouse sludge clotted cream fudge

 

 

‘Rap’ Section

You give & you give & you give

You’ve given us love…you’ve never held a grudge

And we said no tears but it always rains on days like these

On the goodbye-eve on the days we leave…

You’ve given me things to keep me occupied

But I just wanna kick back n watch the sky

We talked about never givin up, about never givin in

About never forgettin what we’re fightin for

(Yeah we’re fightin for love)

They read the rules n regulations through the rain clouds

Hot n stuffy dropped it down a notch

A blessin with the trees over there lookin bare

Converted from espresso into Platinum hooded up n zipped in

I’m gonna bring back the past complete the task n fill the golden cast

Yeah i’m gonna kick ass

(Cause i’m fightin for love)

Verse 2

Winter valley time to fly away

Reunite with those summertime rays

But hey I’ve seen a place for sale with a funky kinda yale

A stout in the Dales in need of a hammer n nails

And that one little thing it’s cheerin me up

Yeah just knowin it’s there is really makin me smile

There’s a cotton-tale bunny hoppin around

Givin me a kickstart, yeah, it’s makin me smile

And I want you to know I ain’t gonna let you down

Yeah i’m headin back real soon

Damn right next time i’m returnin with the key

‘Rap’ Section (draft)

You give & you give & you give

You’ve given us love, you’ve never held a grudge

And we said no tears but it always rains on days like these

On the goodbye-eve on the days we leave

You’ve given me things to keep me occupied

But I just wanna kick back n watch the sky

We talked about never givin up n never givin in

About never forgettin what we’re fightin for

(Yeah we’re fightin for love)

They read the rules n regulations Nation-wide

Loud speaker for convertin to espresso

Through the rain clouds hot n stuffy dropped it down a notch

Been a blessin with the trees over there lookin bare

Now i’m lactatin to the beat thinkin back to them snowflakes at our feet

I got my platinum hooded up n zipped in

Gonna walk the pasture complete the task ??

Fill the golden cast yeah we’re gonna kick ass

 

(Yeah we’re fightin for love)
