Sticks and stones

[Glenn Mitchell]

I finally found my drum machine. A used Boss DR-880.
A huge learning curve for me but I'm determined because the sounds are so cool.
This is a first go at it. I didn't get the panning right (not there yet on the learning curve) but the feel is there.

(E)Not every garden will (B)grow
(B)Not each intention will (E)take
(E)You can't always reap what you (B)sow.
(B)You can't always keep what you (E)make
CH
(A6)sticks and stones can (EMaj7)build a home
 to protect your privacy
But don't let dust gather on your(Dbm)heart
cuz (A)that's the part,(B) you're gonna (E)need

Some hearts are harder than steel
& every heartache is real.
And some Love takes longer to feel
& some hurt takes longer to heal
CH
Solo
CH
The hardest thing in all the world
Is to dry your eyes and go try again
But love comes thru an open door
You simply don't know when.

Real nice tune, really well put together, the drums fit perfectly, but that,s not the good bit the song is ,well played.

[stoman]

Very cool rhythm, Glenn, and the composition has a nice 60s/70s touch. I think this song might have suited Mr. Orbison well.
