I've Got a Feeling This is Gonna Go Bad

A not-so-terrible groove kinda falls flat. I’ve never said this before, and I doubt I’ll ever say this again, but maybe the melody should have been written higher? I don’t think a key change would do it, just a melody that sits a little higher up on the scale. Maybe. Something like that. something that required me to reach a little harder and push out a little more air. Something like that.

Guitars are all Gibson ES335. Amps are all Fender Bassbreaker 15 and Vox AC15. Pedals on the rhythm guitar is just an Ibanez Tube Screamer Mini (what, no Klon? blasphemy!) The leads are a Dunlop Crybaby Wah into an MXR Phase 90 into a Klon KTR (there she is!) into a Keeley D&M Drive into a Donner Yellowfall for some slap back.

I do kinda like the way that Tube Screamer sounds. I very rarely dig that pedal out, but everyone now and then it’s a little inspiring.

Chorus
I’ve got a feeling this is gonna go bad
each way you look at it gets harder to understand

Verse 1
how did we think this would work out right
its so clear now we see it in hindsite

Verse 2
I feel like it ended at the start
in one moment it all just fell apart

Middle 8
take a good look at yourself
there is no one else
it isn’t gonna work out
that’s not what this is about
