Don’t be Naive

Robert James

The Great Quest to Write a Heavy Rocker in 3/4 Time Continues. Kinda generic, but I like the vibe and the vocal harmonies aren’t terrible. I used a couple of different tones for the leads which was also neat.

All of the guitar parts are a Gibson ES-335 Pro through both a Vox AC15 and a Fender Bassbreaker 15. The rhythm parts and the first couple of lead sections used a Klon KTR and a Malaise Forever Black Lives Matter. The second half of the main solo swaps the BLM for a Wren and Cuff Tri Pi ’70 and adds a little slap back from a Wampler Faux Tape Echo. The solo at the end switches back to the BLM but keeps the Wampler.

Chorus
Come along with me, come and you’ll see
Look to the future but don’t be naive try to believe

Verse 1
Fool you
Fool me
give in to it
you will see

Verse 2
I’m you
You’re me
What you want can
never be

Bridge
come out from under
what do you see
somewhere inside you
what you could be
