Well, here's a new one I wrote today. This is a very rough cut. Suggestions welcome.

It's called "I'll Get Over You (But Not Too Soon)"

I'll Get Over You - 05/06/2012
Chapman Jones
Capo 2 In G

G............................
I'll ride into the sunset
G....................................
I won't dare to look back
G...............................................C
I don't think I could stand the view

Am..............................................
Your message said we're done for
C................................
And girl it'd be a real chore
......G......................................................D (walk down to G)
If I turned my head for one last look at you

I'll just say so long
I sure would hate to prolong
The bitter blue of love break apart

I think a drink or two will offset
The protracted time to forget
Every memory you left inside my heart

................Am/C............G
I'll, get over you
................Am/C......................G
(girl), I'll get over you (girl in harmony)
................Am/C........................G....D....(Walk down to G)
I guess it won't be soon

I'll ride into the sunset
I don't think I can look back
Cause I know, I'd completely come unglued

I'll, get over you
(girl), I'll get over you (girl in harmony)
But I guess it won't be soon

If I turned my head for one last look at you

I'll just say so long
I sure would hate to prolong
The agony of a love that breaks apart

I think a drink or two will offset
The enormous time to forget
Every memory you left inside my heart

Am/C............G
I'll, get over you
Am/C...........G
I'll get over you
Am/C........................G....D....(Walk down to G)
I guess it won't be soon

I'll ride into the sunset
Even though I know I'll regret
The moment I turn my back on you

I'll, get over you
I'll get over you
I guess it won't be soon

Yes, me too. A good rewrite and I love the chorus too, same as Chris. Definitely a sing-along song. :thumbup1:
