This is the last song to be finished for the 2014 RPM Challenge / FAWM. DONE!
I’m not an eloquent man
I do the best that I can
The words are hard to find
It’s tough to speak my mind
I never know what to say

This song was originally meant to be played on piano, but being a bad pianist I switched it to guitar. Being a glutton for punishment though meant I switched it to 12-string. I had a bear of a time getting the part right, and then doubling everything…

Well, I had to swear SOMEWHERE in the album.
GIRLS LIKE YOU
You’re young and pretty
Shy and smart and witty

You've heard the phrase, "fix it in the mix" right? This is my attempt. I am seriously burnt out on RPM. I'm not feeling it anymore. I'm not hearing it anymore. I'm not physically capable of playing well anymore. I recorded the guitar leads…
