One Newport left in the pack

This is yesterday's track, back to the original melody with cross-picked guitar added (oy! that was tough). I see the template for a proper song now, and over the coming days I'll add to this and I hope to end up with something...

Maybe I’m someone
Or maybe I’m not
A tree falls in the forest
And the roots start to rot
And my lady she loves me
Whether I like it or not
I’ve got all that I need
I’ve got all that I’ve got
It’s too early for peaches
And it’s too late…

I wrote this a week or so ago, and decided to give it a proper "mix" I guess? I'm not great at mixing quite yet, so this is just trying to add some ear candy and make it sound as good as I can!

Worries Never Win
Verse 1:
Worries have never solved
The things that ache my heart.
Pacing the midnight floors,
Only pulled me apart.
Tried to fix it all alone—
But I was sinking fast.
Then I heard a still, small voice:
