12-string electric, Fender Jazz, Hofner Verythin, Vocals, and Garageband drums, piano & organ.

we're all a little bit broken
we're all a little bit cracked
we just want the good times back
but were they really good times?

and it takes more than glue
to fix the cracks in you
'cause cracks can turn to fissures overnight
the world is upside down
pocket contents on the ground
and every nerve we have in fight or flight

there aren't too many lifeboats to go round
in this dumbed down sea of sound

we're all a little bit broken
we're all a little bit cracked
we just want the good times back
but were they really good times?

around the cape of blue
the storms will batter you
no lighthouse keeper left to light the way
the world is dazed and bruised
a boxer paid to lose
'cause money talks and money gets its way

and there aren't too many lifeboats to go round
in this dumbed down sea of sound

we're all a little bit broken
we're all a little bit cracked
we just want the good times back
but were they really good times?

Oh yes, jangly, psychedelic... digging that piano and organ against the twelve string.

And a cool song on top. Melody and lyrics are mighty fine.
You won't believe this, only just spotted the backing vox on the 3rd or 4th listen - nicely done, they're actually really obvious but they just blend in perfectly, adding to the whole vibe.

It all works fabulously.

   All that I need
Is just a piece of paper
To say a few lines
Make up my mind
So she can read it later
When I'm gone

Excellent song! Love how well all the instruments blend. Great vocal as well.
There are only three kinds of drummers. Those who can count, and those who can't.

Those things we take for granted - when we're young and immature - will surely return to haunt us when we're old and insecure

Truer words have never been sang, my brother!
I feel this is my song!
Beautiful,  as usual.

Excellent job, Tim! I listened to the piano very carefully and you play it so well. Sounds so fine!

Can't find words anymore, brilliant song again....
