That last line, in particular, is killer!

Just a thought, FWIW: I was hoping for a half-step key modulation after the bridge. Regardless, it's a heckuva song!

The only thing I have to say about all the political crap is:

Whether or not you voted for my guy, thanks for voting. I got my butt shot up pretty good in Vietnam defending the American way of life. And the freedom to freely vote for our leaders is the cornerstone of our democracy. There are millions of folks around the world who would love to have that opportunity.

Loved the song! Take care and be safe ...

Alan, thanks for taking the time to listen and comment. The idea of a modulation is a good one. I wish I would have thought of that. I have to try and remember to use that and will keep in the toolbox for further use down the road, Tom
