Hi all. This song is written with BB's new styles_SINNER.STY (Sinner 6-8 Folk)
Really enjoyed working on this one.

The story line is about the people that help and encourage us through life.
As for me some of that encouragement has come from this very forum for which I'm most grateful.
(BB threw in some chord variations so I went with it.)
As always all comments welcome. Rob


Encouraging Words

Keep walking beside me and fill me with encouraging words.
The pain overwhelms me you'll never know how much that it hurts.

The years go on by I'm hopeful the hurting will ease.
But still burns inside me I know there's no end it wont cease.

Chorus

I know there's a day when you'll have go
I'll hold back my fear hope not let it show.

Bridge
Chorus

I know there's a day when you'll have go
I'll hold back my fear hope not let it show

The clock keeps on ticking the hours slowly drift bye.
All alone in self pity its something I can not deny.

I'll raise up my eyes and empty dark thoughts in my head.
Then recall with great fondness encouraging words that you said.

A well written country song in the vain of Ed Bruce...

Rob,

Really like this—it drips with soul, atmosphere and emotion. Love that piano solo—just killer. And a good write as well. Could see this working its way into a soundtrack. Very cool tune!

All the best,

Deej

Rob,
Good song. As usual, your signature vocals stand out! I liked unusual "detuned" ending.

Comment. I would prefer drums more clear sounding and lighter, it seems as they have quite a bit of effect. They feel a bit detached to me. Rob, please do not take this as some serious critique, I am saying this from average listener viewpoint smile

Thank you for sharing!

Misha.

Really nicely done smile Some great progressions here, and the whole tune has a soothing vibe to it. Definitely a proper throwback to classic country. Someone else mentioned Ed Bruce and that's a fair comparison.

I thought you did a great job - thanks for sharing!

Very, very melancholy and very, very well done.

Great vocals and, as mentioned, the piano solo fits the mood well.

Kudos!

Hello Misha.
Thanks for the great advice. I was trying to bring out the high hat in the chorus and I agree there is too much affect on the drums.
Thank you for listening. Rob.
