2024 50/90 Challenge song idea number 51 becomes finished song number 51.

I had this idea to do one 12-bar each month through the summer writing challenge. This is September’s example. I kinda like the chorus. I really don’t think much of the verse. There isn’t much else to note. I like the key change under the solo. That was fun.

The rhythm guitar tracks are my SG Standard into a Klon KTR into a Keeley Super Phat Mod into both a Fender Bassbreaker 15 and a Vox MV50 Clean running direct output with built in speaker emulation. The leads are my Les Paul Custom into a Wren and Cuff Tall Font Russian into the KTR into an MXR Carbon Copy Mini into the same two amps.

Verse 1
Know when it’s time
everything’s fine
Know when it’s time
everything’s fine
There’s something missing
It’s all a grind

Chorus
I’m slipping under throw a line
I’m always hoping for a sign
I’m slipping under throw a line
I’m always hoping for a sign
I never quite get through it
I’m always losing by design

Verse 2
What do you know
what do you say
What do you know
what do you say
There’s nothing coming
There is no way

Saved!
