Tears for Sale

Tears For Sale

Tears for sale
I won't cry no more
I won't die no more, in the arms of love
Don't pity me
I won't live their lies
Too late, now, for compromise.

Tears for sale
Nothing more to fear
Victims all, my dear, in the game of love
Above the cloud
The sun still plays her part
Rays of joy
To fill your heart.

So, if you find
Your own way home
Speak your Truth to everyone.

Tears for sale
I won't cry no more
I won't die no more, in the arms of love
Don't pity me
I won't live their lies
Too late, now, for compromise.

So, if you find
Your own way home
Speak your Truth to everyone.

Tears for sale.

Wow!! I like a lot of this laid back jazzy tune!! Cool chord progression and the piano solo was great!! Your voice is fantastic! Could you post the chords, maybe I'd learn more . Top class jazzy tune, heg!

ps. what is your recorder?

[cuthbert]

Really lovely, heg577. I love the bossa nova, beautifully played and sung. I picture a smokey bar and the ghost of Stan Getz adding a sax solo.

Really wonderful tune here and great production! I'd like to know what your recording on also. It's got that fabulous timeless sound that makes it feel like it's tune you've loved all your life.
Rock On!

Microphone: sE200

Garageband Jazzy Loop
Vocal was doubled and panned, as was the guitar.
I added the little shaker sound.

Just the simplest of instrumentation required for this track in order to leave lots of space.
Would have loved to have heard Amy Winehouse sing it.

Thanx

ps: are there any Amy Winehouse impersonators out there?

...the tears have no monetary value, I am, though, willing to swap them for some laughter..

Excellent. The vocals, the guitar, the piano; it all sounds great. Nice songwriting too.
