I Had a Chance to Make it Right

I almost like this one. I was into it while I was putting it together (percussion overload, babie!) and playing the rhythm guitar parts was kinda fun. I had a really hard time with the vocals. I just couldn’t find the pitches anywhere. Singing it was a major struggle. I wanted harmony vocals all over the place but I couldn’t make it happen. I don’t know what the problem was. It’s not like the parts I wrote were that difficult, I just failed on that day. I think this could also benefit from some editing. If I cut it down to 2:15-2:20 or something like that it would land much better.

The rhythm guitar is a Gibson ES-335 into a Klon KTR pedal into a Vox AC15 and a Fender Bassbreaker 15. The lead is a Gibson Les Paul into a Malaise Forever Black Lives Matter pedal into the same two amps.

Section A #1
I had a chance to make it right
all I could want was in my sight
there was a future it was bright
If I could only get to the light

Section B #1
find the way out
find the way back home
what’s it say about
being alone

Section C
Is this a good day to be starting out
it seems a good day to be stuck inside
If I had the words maybe I’d describe
this mess we’re stuck in right now

Section B #2
oh, the abuse
tell me what’s the use
you’ve the right to choose
be a recluse

Section A #3
I knew that it was coming true
I knew exactly what to do
Comes from somewhere inside of you
As if you ever had a chance
