Hi all. I wrote this a while back, this is the 2022 remix.

I'm a weeping child


(e) I'm a weeping child when things go wrong.(he's a weeping)
I wrote it down for the words in this song. (hes a weeping)
(a)No concentration since you've been gone. (he's a weeping)
Can't seem to tell what's right or wrong

(e)I'm a weeping (b)child I have no (a)smile I'm a weeping (e)child

Can't seem to sleep when the rain comes down. (he's a weeping)
Can't close my eyes hear every sound. (he's a weeping)
I hear a noise round my back door. (he's a weeping)
Can't seem to find what I'm looking for.

(e)I cannot sleep (b)out on my feet (a)I a weeping (e)child

Chorus
(c#m)Im so alone get chills at night.
(e) Can't get no peace there's no respite.
(c#m)Won't you come back and make it right
cause (e)I'm your (b)weeping (e)child

Bridge

Chorus
(c#m)I'm so alone get chills at night.
(e) Can't get no peace there's no respite.
(c#m)Won't you come back and make it right
cause (e)I'm your (b)weeping (e)child


I hope one day I'll get over you.
I hope one day I'll sleep the night through
Then I'll be happy not moping around
thought of you won't get me down

(e)No weeping child (b)I'll wear a smile(a)I'm a weeping (e)child

Man, you got a wonderfully renewed Elvis sound there, Rob. Excellent band, and the vocal drives the song. Good mix and very enjoyable listen.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Rob...man you captured that great late 50's sound...love the vocal repeats and the entire vocal...it sounds like something written for or by Roy Orbison or Chris Isaak...I love this style of music and you captured it perfectly...very cool!

[Seems to be 'Sparrow' time this year grin]

Your mini-refrain between the verses and at the end
are a pretty good Iggy Pop 'Real Wild Child' copy laugh

But you did it in a great way, I like it a lot. And the vocal repetitions are really cool.
I like it so much that I had to listen to it twice....good job!

Rob this is fanastic!

I got a Buddy Holly vibe on this one.

Excellent vocal, backing band, and mix.

Your best to date IMHO.

Your lead vocal has that rich, husky sound and then your background vocals are spot on. The 50’s rock and roll vibe is so enjoyable and your band kept us rockin’ along.

Fine job on the mix too. And a cool write.

Enjoyed it!
