Title: Did,nt See It Coming
Post by: SE on October 06, 2010, 05:10:55 PM
He,s a wee tune.


Walk,in down to this place
That feel so familiar
Something does,nt feel right
There,s a change in the air

Chorus

Placed my faith in you
Invested too much, it,s true
Given, what I should,nt have
Trust,was just a fool,s game


Sometimes you know what,s coming
No one ever tips you the wink
That feeling in your gut
Say,s it all,no one said
Always the last to know
Feeling empty, I should have known
Blindness is a comfort blanket
Love hid it from my brain

Chorus

The anger starts to rise up
Things like this never happen to me
Confrontation ends, a shouting match
Turn,s out I,m the one to blame
Take your self respect, put it in a case
Say your leaving, she says " get out"
Love took your heart and threw it on the floor

Short solo

Chorus

Walk,in down to this place
That feels so familiar
Something does,nt feel right
There,s a change in the air
Always the last to know
Feeling empty,I should have known
Blindness is a comfort blanket
Love hid it from my brain

Chorus

Great full sound.  If it were me I would be tempted to go electric during that chorus, crashing power chords, for a little variety.  I like your solo, sounds real good, just what the song needed.  Its got quality all about it.

Wow, what's not to like about this, I actually like the way you kept the whole song acoustic based including the solo.

The song has a real driving quality created by that wonderful melodic guitar rythym.

The superb vocal just tops it all off!

QuoteHe,s a wee tune.
A very modest introduction to a great acoustic song!

I wish I had more time to listen to all the song posted here (and elsewhere). This one was surely worth the stop. :)

I,ll let you know, but you might have to listen lots of horrendous covers that are not of my liking.

Great song John, the guitars are great, I love the little runs and the chord sequences. It;s a really well put together song that works beautifully and I love your vox on this.

Cheers,

I've totally missed this - thanks for the bump! Catchy song and performance! Agree with Hook about lead guitar in the chorus - works nicely!
