Folks,
Wrote and recorded this tonight. It's a first round tune. I need to refine the melodies a bit and the mix is, well lacking. I've got a nasty burn on my index fret finger so I hope you don't mind a few whacked notes. But you can't stop the muse once she pulls up a chair! It's gonna be a couple weeks before my finger healed up and then I'll re-record it. I just wanted to get it down tonight .... ack.... I got my volumes trashed ..... ahh...next time....

It's Too Hard - LoFi [1.8Mb @ 4:03]
Let me know what you think of the tune overall. Your thoughts on the lyrics would be great too. Appreciate it!

It's Too Hard
[V1]
I went swimming in your eyes
Melted like ice in your hand
Crumbled by the force of your kiss
My heart overflowed like a broken dam
[Chorus]
I don't want to go there again
I don't want to go there again
It's too hard
To find my way
Back home
[V2]
I wrote songs about our love
And sang them under trees
Painted pictures of your face
Your hair would stir in the slightest breeze
[Chorus]
I don't want to go there again
I don't want to go there again
It's too hard
To find my way
Back home
[Melodic Break]
Em /Bm /C /D [maybe some
slide work]
[V3]
I left my heart with you
I won't need it any time soon
Find a shelf to place it on
Keep it in the shadows of an autumn moon
[Chorus]
I don't want to go there again
I don't want to go there again
It's too hard
To find my way
Back home
[Tag]
It's too hard
To find my way
Back home

As always, thanks for getting this far!
