By You.



Lyrics by LAWHON
Chord structure by LAWHON
Production by SUNO


I'm putting up a lot of songs lately. Am not trying to hog the site. Am producing songs with SUNO and then uploading to Soundclick to get them ordered. Then linking them here to see if there are any comments or observations. Once I get to 12 songs,

(have 9, actually 10 because I'm going include Stone's soft-jazz, co-write. Love what he did.)

I will create a playlist on Spotify. Once that is in place, I am going to try to get bars and restaurants in my area to put it in their Spotify rotation. Am also gonna use it as a catalogue in an effort to get local artists to cover.

Much appreciation to RED for creating a tranquil and productive atmosphere to concentrate on the songs.


[Intro]
[fingerpicked acoustic guitar with alternating bass and hammer-ons]

[Verse 1]
[baritone male vocals enter]
I just want to lay by you
Feel myself all wrapped in you
When I do my soul feels new
I can fade away my blues
By you

[Verse 2]
I just want to feel you breathe
Somehow puts my mind at ease
It's like I'm floating on a breeze
There's no greater peace
For me

[Chorus]
Life has many troubles
There's lots of heavy sighs
But when I lie down by you
They all just float on by
Doesn't matter where we are
Doesn't matter why

[Chorus 2]
Watching TV on a sofa
Or out beneath a sky
As long as I can feel you
Everything's alright
Doesn't matter where we are
Doesn't matter why

[Instrumental Break]
[acoustic guitar solo with melodic hammer-ons and slides]

[Chorus 3]
Life has many troubles
There's lots of heavy sighs
But when I lie down by you
They all just float on by
Doesn't matter where we are
Doesn't matter why

[Chorus 4]
Watching TV on a sofa
Or out beneath a sky
As long as I can feel you
Everything's alright
Doesn't matter where we are
Doesn't matter why

[Verse 3]
I just want to pass the time
Let thoughts of you fill up my mind
Our legs all intertwined
Our two hearts combined
As one
[final acoustic guitar chord rings out]

Sounds good LAWHON, reminds me of something I did years ago. Might post it.

Nice job.

Thanks Tex, and please do post your song. I always enjoy hearing where you come from when you write.
