Hi all.
This is a re-write of a song I wrote some time ago.
All comments welcome. Rob4580

Three Chords


If I had a billy I'd bring you some water.
I'd bring you some water to take on your thirst.
I'd take it from it from mountains and deep flowing canyons.
I'd bring you some water to take on your thirst.

If I was a painter I'd paint you a landscape.
With wild rugged ranges in midst of a storm.
I'd paint you a landscape that no one had painted.
I'd bring you some water to take on your thirst.

Chorus
But all I can give you is love and a heartbeat.
To sing you a song is the best I can do.
I'll play you three chords and I'll pen down a love song.
To sing you a song is the best I can do.

Bridge

Chorus
But all I can give you is love and a heartbeat.
To sing you a song is the best I can do.
I'll play you three chords and I'll pen down a love song.
To sing you a song is the best I can do.

Rob,
the harmony is ace.
I haven't seen/heard "billy" in a song for yonks.
It's a lovely song - I want more verses becasue I dug the way it developed and the way you tied the 1st into the last line of the 2nd.
Tres bonn.


Cheers

I like it. Simple but effective lyrics, nicely sung, well mixed.

Sounds like a classic folk song - familiar, but original. laugh

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Rob,

If you were a painter, you would have painted a lovely, lovely song—just like this one. Every element is pretty darn perfect, from vocals, mood, sentiment, production. Like this in all respects—impressive.

“I’ll pen you three chords and I’ll pen down a love song”—what a great line!

My best to you,

Deej

What a tune - some excellent lyricism here, and your vocals are the perfect vehicle for them. It is tender, emotional, and definitely tugs at the heart a little bit.

You did a fantastic job on this one - great work and thanks for sharing smile

Lovely.

It's written and performed with that heartfelt feel that you are a master of.

The word genuine always comes to mind when we listen to your productions.

It has a classic feel that makes the listener immediately feel right at home.

Well done all the way around!

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
