Just having fun. Just having fun. I hope no one gets an eye poked out. Lyrics and tracks below, lyrics also on SoundCloud Earth Odyssey By David Snyder V1 You say you’re tired of the pain And you’re tired of the rain And you’re tired of playing The same old games again and again You're tired of staring out into space waiting for something to change Well that makes two of us Like ashes to ashes in a world of dust CH: And we could have been heroes Like Sergeant Pepper and Major Tom Yeah we could have been heroes Like Sergeant Pepper and Major Tom But I’m afraid my love That now we’ll never know I knew it this morning when I turned on the radio V2 You say you tired of facing the night And you’re tired of waiting for dawn You say you’re afraid of the shadows Afraid of the light Afraid of everything that’s gone wrong Well, that’s makes two of us CH And we could have been heroes Like Sergeant Pepper and Major Tom Yeah we could have been heroes Like Sergeant Pepper and Major Tom But I’m afraid my love We will never know I knew it this morning when I turned on the radio V3 So you tired of the pain And you’re tired of the rain And you’re tired of the same old games again and again Well that makes two of us We just need something And someone else to trust We just need something And someone else to trust Words and music copyright 2016 by David Snyder BEATBOX.STY Earth Odyssey 4:06 Key E RealTracks in style: ~2474:Bass, Acoustic, Held Ev 085 RealTracks in style: 1943:Synth, Rhythm, EuroDance Strings Ev 120 RealTracks in style: ~2267:Synth, BellPad, Rhythm 80sPopPads Ev 085 Electric and Acoustic Guiatr, Piano and Synth: David Snyder Vovals: David Snyder David Snyder Songwriter/Renaissance Man Studio + Fingers https://davidsnydersongs.com/ https://spoti.fi/359Gigs www.davidsnydermusic.com/ www.reverbnation.com/davidpsnyder www.soundcloud.com/david-snyder-gigs4 https://www.songtradr.com/user/profile/david.snyder

The line "Like ashes to ashes in a world of dust" really appealed to me. Your creativity continues zooming along at the speed of light! All the best, Noel MY SONGS...

Thank God all my equipment is plugged into surge protector power strips that are all then plugged into a master surge protector (Military Grade, $200 variety) so I won't lose my band in a box songs!!! And because of a backup router power module I can sent out one more email!! Been drawing a lot of inspiration from you and everyone else Bob! Thanks for the great material. Got to go light a candle now. Catch you guys on the other side!!!

The simple guitar run/lead that you have at the end of the chorus is a GREAT touch! The vocal is mixed perfectly, too... Interesting write - keeps your interest throughout. Y'all are tearin' up that beatbox thang... fj 150+ Songs produced using BIAB RealTracks And 50 more... and some more...
