Done, Gone and Moving On
I wrote this for the @#$% that left me four months after the wedding because “he made a mistake” and really just wanted to party all the time instead of be married. It all happened so fast, it was difficult to get over it. I was still “there” long after everybody else had left. Perfect grist for the song mill don’t you think, I mean what would Taylor Swift or Adelle write about if it wasn’t for broken hearts??
Don’t know whether to call this jazz or blues but I might try jazz. I stole this chord progression from the 40’s and 50’s – I vi ii V, you will probably recognize it. But I needed it and it fit my melody, dunno maybe it was just in my subconscious but it’s a beautiful chord progression, so I took it shamelessly. My problem is I’m not a jazz player and it’s really hard to play straight and sing jazz so what I’d like is my voice against a better rhythm track, jazz guitar rhythm, which would free me to try the lead. Nice soft bass and drums.
I think this is a good song, maybe the best song I ever wrote. I wrote it from a deep place in my heart.
This song is on KOMPOZ if you want to add a better rhythm, nice hollow-body would sound good.

Nice song Cherry. It was good to see you last night and love your piece.
