hi guys heres a new song from me.its my first post in here any advice would be gratefully accepted
https://soundcloud.com/brad-stevens-uk/right-by-your-side

hope ive done that right.

RIGHT BY HER SIDE THURS 20/10/2016 KEY Eb

V1
TWO DOORS DOWN LIVES SWEET BOBBI JEAN
PREETIST GIRL I'VE EVER SEEN
LONG BLONDE HAIR AND SKY BLUE EYES
SHE'D ROLL EM AT ME WHEN SHE WALKED ON BY


V2
WE SPENT OUR SUMMER DOWN AT WILLOW CREEK
THATS WHERE I KISSED HER ON HER CHEEK
BUT WE GREW UP AND GREW APART
THE PROM QUEEN BEAUTY THAT BROKE MY HEART

PRE
BUT TIME MOVED ON AND SHE FLEW AWAY
WENT TO COLLEDGE OUT IN LA

CHORUS
IF I COULD HOLD HER LIKE I DID BACK THEN
I'D NEVER LET HER GO AGAIN
I'D ROPE THE MOON AND HANG IT HIGH
TELL HER THAT I LOVE HER SO
NEVER EVER LET HER GO
LOVE HER LIKE ITS THE LAST DAY OF MY LIFE
AND ALWAYS BE RIGHT THERE BY HER SIDE

8 BAR BREAK


V3
THE YEARS PASSED BY AND LIFE WENT ON
THEN ONE DAY IT BROUGHT BOBBI HOME
I DID/NT THINK SHE RECOGNISE
THE OLDER MAN BEHIND THAT SMILE


V4
TWENTY YEARS LATER AND WE MADE IT THROUGH
ME AND BOBBI AND OUR DAUGHTER TOO
IT SEEMS TRUE LOVE DOES WHAT IT CAN
TO FIND THE RIGHT WOMAN AND RIGHT MAN

PRE
I LOOK BACK NOW AND I CANR BELEIVE
JUST HOW MUCH THAT GIRL MEANS TO ME

CHORUS

I CAN HOLD HER LIKE I DID BACK THEN
NEVR LET HER GO AGAIN
I ROPED THE MOON AND HUNG IT WAY UP HIGH
TELL HER THAT I LOVE HER SO
ILL NEVER EVER LET HER GO
UNTILL ITS THE LAST DAY OF MY LIFE
AND IM ALWAYS RIGHT THERE BY HER SIDE


ill post the tracks ive used later
cheers guys

I like a song that tells a story, and yours does so very well indeed. Good song! Is that you playing the break in the middle?

I enjoyed the listen!

Nice trad country, good story song, nice vocals and guitar. Be nice to see your BIAB info included. Maybe lose the CAPS.

Are you not originally from the UK? (Soundcloud shows "Brad Stevens uk") Accent is like Southern US.

Keep 'em coming, grin
Bob

A nice traditional country song. This one has a Steve Earle vibe to me. I agree with the southern accent intonation - very cool.

You can find the BIAB track and song information in the song memo in the upper section of the classic main GUI screen. Just click on the Song Memo button and a window with all the information will be there.

Enjoyed my listen.

Brad,

A very enjoyable song - your vocals sound really good ( not a trace of NE England!), and the backing just fine.

Brad, you have put together a very good sounding country track here! Vocals display a talent for this genre and you have a good mix. Great story telling which is what many great songs have. This may be your first post but you sound like you have been at it for a long time. Take care, Torrey
