another I'm playing around with atm "the way you are":

you're still so small
and you're bound to fall
don't let nobody say
that you are wrong

the way you are
the way you are
you'll go so far
you'll go so far

the best of you
is still to come
the battle is though
and not easily won

the way you are
the way you are
you'll go so far
you'll go so far

@hairylarry I don't know but I kind of got fed up with the text I suggested before so I began writing this one instead to a melody I had lying around. would you like to continue with this?

it's supposed to be addressing a school boy/girl instilling hope and confidence to go their own way

@reto

This is nice. I could play a harmonica part on it. maybe piano. Also I think I could write a bridge so maybe verse chorus verse chorus bridge verse chorus or verse chorus verse chorus bridge harmonica chorus, I guess depending on whether we need another verse after the bridge.

Can you shoot me the chords you're playing.

Thanks

@hairylarry yeah, I think harmonica would be great.

how about accordion backing, can you play that too?

chords are G C D C

would be cool if you could write a bridge. just play around with the order and see what goes best 👍

@reto

I probably could but I don't have an accordian. I'll work on this new one later today and see if anything gells.

@reto

I like the fact that it's a more positive upbeat message.
