I have been working on this song for a couple of days. It's a very personal song so I probably won't change much but give me your opinion.



E D
Sometimes you feel all alone
A E
All on your own it's a shame
E D
Sometimes you just want to be
A E
Left alone to be free and that's all



Bm D A E
Tell me who I'm supposed to be
Bm D A E
Is my life real or if I close my eyes will it disappear



E D
Sometimes the dues that you pay
A E
Day after day are in vein
E D
Sometimes you work and you slave
A E
For an early grave it's insane




Bm D A E
Tell me who I'm supposed to be
Bm D A E
Is my life real or if I close my eyes will it disappear





F#m A F#m A
We're all the same we're just pawns in this game
F#m A Bm D E
Of life we must play but for all of use the game will end someday




E D
Sometimes the ones that you love
A E
Get called from above and their gone
E D
Sometimes the pain that you feel
A E
Is all that seems real in this place





Bm D A E
Tell me who am I supposed to be
Bm D A E
Is my life real or if I close my eyes will it disappear

Bm D A E
Tell me who am I supposed to be
Bm D A E
Is my life real or if I close my eyes will it disappear



I left out all the breaks and solos, but this is the basics of the song. I will try to have it on myspace in the next week or so.

LesPaul,

@Soy
It sounds good on both acoustic or electric but I think I like it better on acoustic. Has a natural feel to it if you know what I mean. The riffs and solos will be on my les paul.

@Phip
Thanks glad you like it. It has a slow rhythm to it but not to slow.

Great song! If you can use theright pitches I do think E and D could work,but if youhave your doubts I think E and B are great with each other aswell as A that you already got, but I think if you play and sing it right you can pull E and D off no problem.

Can't wait to hear it! (I also think it feels like Southern rock reading it.)
