There's The Door

One more , that was done at County Q studios in Nashville

Paul the owner said he hears sensitive love songs all day , He has to do something manly like chop wood

its a major studio with pictures of stars that recorded there , I said damn I got beat these guys ? Rather intimidating



She gets up in the morning

Another long long lonely night 

Stares at the empty bed where he should be 

Coffee fills the air she combs her long black hair 

Just then she heard the turning of his key 

He did his best to explain why he was out so late 

But she knew the whiskey got him down 

She looked him in the eye 

But this time she did not cry 

You could hear a feather hit the ground 

Ch

She said 

I'm tired of spending all my sleepless nights alone 

Why you could fill your beer bottles with my tears 

My hearts been broken and it's far beyond repair

Take your ring , there's the door 

V2

He slowly packed his things with those trembling hands

He saw his picture on the floor in shattered glass

Started one more lie but she said don't even try

Cuz this time shirley will be the last 

Ch

V3

Well desperation finally settled in 

And all of Jim Beam could not calm his fears 

Tried to understand then removed his wedding band

Then cried he's own river of tears

  • Really enjoying this one...any song that mentions whiskey is an automatic win in my book :-D lol You've got the good traditional vibe going strongly here, though, and you're doing it in a way that makes it all seem fresh and new all over again, too :-)

    Well them Nashville sessions players are good , They chart it out and run thru it once and lay it down , its all live one take. Union guys . They do that day in and day out . Danny Dugmore player on this said he had to fly to Calif to work with Grahmn Nash , Grahmn knows nothing about music , I thought that was kinda funny , oh yeah lol . These Nashville guys can play anything and they're super fast at it . You walk out and ask yourself how the hell do they do that

    thanks

  • Classic country sound! Very nicely put together.

    I think the chorus is particularly good and it has my favorite line: Why you could fill your beer bottles with my tears 

    Good stuff, Elvis!

  • Got a good sound, Elvis!

  • Hola @ElvisNash What can I add? Like always a woneful song !!! and performance nd and

    Pros often do a good job , I miss Nashville . You get to work with world class players , I'm sure some humans are losing their jobs over AI in Nashville , I don't know the %'s though

    Thanks

  • I know good professional musicians who are losing their jobs because of AI because AI works fast, doesn't rebel or protest, follows parameters, achieves excellent results, is cheap, takes up no space, and... we're throwing ourselves away!!!

    I feel sorry for AI on the forums, even though it's inevitable due to its possibilities... but... I'm an old soul tied to the creation of the soul.


    En fin @ElvisNash
