Good day all....
Well....
I've never written (2) songs back to back before so I'll throw this one against the wall too.
A song about life and how we sometimes fail to grasp it and it's unknown adventures or opportunities.
You know, the "without some risk there's no reward" thing.
I'm an idiot! I forgot to post a direct link. I'm old. https://soundcloud.com/chulaivet1966/time-waiits-for-no-one-ken-lasaine-on-guitarsMy sincere thanks to Ken (klasaine) for his time and musicianship on this new one.
He's the best and easy to work with.
Thanks also to any that give it a spin and hope you find it worthy of your time.

Time Waits For No One (100 bpm Key: Bm 3:21)
Intro:Verse 1Born alone, eyes tightly closed awaiting your first cry. When you strike out on your own, so begins your life. Every path will ebb and flow to swells of ocean waves. You’ve done your time says every line etched deeply on your face.
ChorusTime waits for no one, there’s choices to be made. Time waits for no one, so board that ship before it sails.
Bm7 (4 bars) interludeVerse 2Looking back at old regrets and possibilities So easy to get lost in thought and dreamy reveries. Younger voices calling you for choices never made. Life’s a stormy marathon, can’t always play it safe
ChorusTime waits for no one, there’s choices to be made. Time waits for no one, so board that ship before it sails.
Bridge:Lead break: verse + chorus. Verse: Bm7 (41-56) Chorus: (57-60)
Bridge:Verse 3Someone told me long ago wisdom comes with age. Get used to all the highs and lows accept what can’t be changed. Without some risk there’s no reward. The nature of the game. Young or old, keep pushin’ on. Forward is the way.
ChorusTime waits for no one. There’s choices to be made. Time waits for no one so board that ship before it sails.
Vamp to end: Bm7 (8 bars) (81-84)
