A collaboration, delightful lyrics by Francis Smith, from an old 50/90, finally finished. A song with no particular rhymes. Can't say I miss them.
Hope you enjoy it.

RT - 689 Organ B3
RT - 365 Guitar accoustic

Life Church - Francis Smith and TuiGorge

| A | F#m | B7 | E

| Life church door was | F#m o-pen sounds of | B7 singing coming | E out

| Pavement smelled of | F#m new rain washing | B7 all our sins a | E way

Do I ac | A cept the invi | tation sent to | C#m all to re | B pent

Meet a | A banker in the | morning re | C#m pay the debt I | B owe

| D Then take on some | B more

| E Life church door was | F#m closing they were | B7 leaving going | E home

Flowers | growing all a F#m round it | B7 dancing in the | E wind

| A Needing some for | giveness I | C#m asked them for the | B way

But | A flowers only | talk to those with | C#m pollen to ex | B change

And it | D was too late to | B change

| E Life church door is | F#m locked now chance is | B7 gone to change my | E ways

Thought per | haps I shouldn't F#m call you but I | B7 did it any | E way

Beautiful song. Excellent vocal and what a lovely lyric. The organ was perfect for that backtrack. I think this is my favorite song you have done. Well done.

Good job here, RichMan smile It's a very pretty tune, and I have to agree with Scott in that the vocals are excellent, and lyrics really add to it as well. I found it really easy to close my eyes and get lost to.

Great work, and thanks so much for sharing!


Cheers,
Deryk

This is very very pretty. Can’t say I miss the rhymes either.

Very nice! Never thought about the presence or absence of the rhymes...it just worked.

Those two RT's were spot on for backing the vocal.

Thanks for sharing

Rich,
The beautiful lyric is oddly more interesting for the lack of rhyme and your vocal carries the song`s reflective feel.
Well done!

Robert

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."

Our Customer Service hours this weekend are:
