On Your Way
2022 RPM Challenge song number nine.
Simple. I like it. It started with me strumming over a drum loop and then developed quickly. I thought about leaving the bass and drums off, but wimped out. It’s a little folkie, but not THAT folkie.
The guitars are all Les Paul Standard through a Bassbreaker 15. Pedals for the rhythm are an Earthquaker Devices The Depths and a Ryra The Klone. The leads are a Klon KTR into the boost (Mick) side of a Keeley D&M Drive.
Chorus
In the space of a breath it’s all gone
In the time of a beat if that long
Place your bets and then take your best shot
This is your only chance don’t be wrong
Verse 1
As the clock winds down
you won’t hear a sound
hidden in the ground
That’s all that’s left
Verse 2 and 3
so the light will fade
Everything will change
the decision’s made
for you, for you
Middle eight
You’re on your way
You’re on your way
Go have your say
on your way, on your way
