  1. Writing a song is one thing but trying to find the right rhythm background music is the most hardest part.

    ?

    I started here and I hope you find a girl who looks like a Bird
    For you have fade away from here
    Don't you cry my baby girl

    I whisper things that damage you and you cry like a girl, who fade away with Apple Pies
    Where is home and where is Rome?

    So far away from here my girl
    Can't you hear my little dove?
    Hissing like the Cat who fade away
    And now she sleeps with a blank stare

    Where is home and where is Rome?

    I passed out where I belong
    Swimming through the lakes of time
    Dreaming of a better time
    When you whispered in my ears

    Where is home and where is Rome?

    I forgot things that hurt my soul
    And now I sleep with a blank stare
    No Garden Gnome will haunt my dreams
    Where is Rome and where is Home?

  2. This was so interesting. I don’t write music as I’ve mentioned in comments but I do write blogs and I was an English major. I also am a motivational speaker about bringing people with and without disabilities together and I believe some of the best writing and speaking is when you are brought to that situation or able to feel that feeling.

  3. 14:09 actually I started learning guitar to just make songs from my own poems, and there are a bunch of them. Still havent figured out a pattern of chords or strumming to fit any of them but there is time 😀 oh and your video of cheating bar chords is ?, i try them but still hate them at this point, so you were helpful in my journey 🙂

  4. At like midnight last night a random bunch lyrics just popped into my head so I quickly wrote them down to get them out of my head then I realized, ''Hey- this isn't too bad-'' So I sent it to my friends and they all told me to write a song based off of it if I wanted to (I do) so I came up with some more lyrics, a chorus, all the fun stuff. Now I'm sitting here, guitar in hand trying to learn from an expert. Pray for me this goes well lol-

  5. My dream is to be sa singer, songwriter,dancer, etc. I thought it was easy, like as easy as cutting a cake, but when I try it it was really hard and I just back out immediately and I said why are they so good. Thank you for your advice?
