B major BPM 140

Got the guitar part done , Now just sing it

[Verse]

 Feeling like a one-eyed tractor pilot

Plowing up fields of empty dreams

 That farm girl broke me Left me dry

 Took the milk Left no cream

 And I’m stuck here My heart a busted wheel

 [Chorus] 

She left me with dirt

 She left me with dust

 Didn’t even sweep

 Didn’t even trust

 All I’ve got now’s this aching blade

 And the only thing on my mind is getting laid

 [Verse 2] 

I drink my coffee black as the night

 Swear at the stars

 They’re too polite

 Her lipstick’s still on my rearview mirror

 But her promises are nowhere near

I’ll mend this heart with rusty steel

 [Bridge] 

The barn doors slam

 The rooster crows

 She took my boots

 She took my soul

 I’m a one-eyed fool with no control

 Just a tractor pilot on a lonely roll

 [Chorus]

 She left me with dirt 

She left me with dust

 Didn’t even sweep

 Didn’t even trust

 All I’ve got now’s this aching blade

 And the only thing on my mind is getting laid

 [Outro] 

The plow keeps turning

 The night stays cold

 Her shadow lingers

 My story’s old

 But tomorrow’s fields might just get made

 And the only thing on my mind... well 

You know I ain’t swayed

@ElvisNash - Killer rhythm. Petty / dylan kind of vibe to it..

ElvisNash

it will work , add vocals and harmony . thanks Bill and Tex another studio has to mix guitars it will sound fuller

ElvisNash

There's enough room to repeat outro , Different structure besides a vcvcbc . it be a v/c/v/b/c/ outro / outro . I know the rules so break one

Jeeze you're back on the writing train, freakin fantastic. Can't wait for the finished tune. "this aching blade", yeah man I can feel that pain. I did a quick search on "One Eyed Tractor Pilot" cuz it's such a wild visual, it appears to be unique to this song. Can't help but wonder where the concept came from??

Keep on it buddy you're a way unique sound and story teller...mo

ElvisNash
