Songwriter approach this many different ways. I almost always start with music. After all, it's a song, right? THere are times when a lyrical idea will happen before the chords are finalized. Then the words might change the chords, but usually when the words come I just have to adjust the arrangement to fit the chords I have to the words. My lyrics tend to be pretty simple for the most part. Although I love some meaningful lyrics, most of mine are just silly. Silly is good!
