Autumn #2 full draft V1

Today I worked hard on getting all the lyrics for the song. I looked up fall related words for inspiration. I really like the song, so I did it pretty quick. Theres some lines that could possibly use some work, but Its a good place to be for working on it for 2 hours. I also wrote the bridge durring this time. I took bout 30 minutes to try and find a chord progression that I liked. I found one on accident that I loved, but I didn't think it fit well, and I decided to save it for another song. I ended up finding chords I really liked. I also tweaked the chorus changing my last chord from A7 with a 9, to an A7sus4 to an A7. I really like the change, and I also utilize it in the bridge in the form of an Am7 to a A7sus4 to a D7. I need to practice the guitar part more for the recording if i record guitar and voice at the same time. I can easily do the guitar without singing so I can focus on it more. I think next week I will start to record all the guitar and bass, and also decide what other instruments I want. If I want drums I think i'm gonna need snare brushes. I also might add a James Taylor/ Jim Croce 2nd guitar part type deal to spice it up, aslong as its not to distracting.

Verse (D dsus/D) G

I’m in love with autumn,

The orange on the trees, the sweet harmony of wind

Blowing next to me

The dark blue sky, reflecting off your eyes.

And when i hear the birds singing its never a surprise

Mm

I’m in love autumn, and my hoodies and jeans

All of the beauty of the soon to be resting trees,

Driving down the road on a cold morning, thinking about nothing

Just listening to the songs in my head

MM

Chorus Cadd9 G D, Cadd9 G (A7sus4 A7 D)

I'm in love with autumn, that much is true

I'm in love with autumn, but im falling for you too

D,G

Falling For you too

Verse

I'm in love with autumn

Hot mug in my hands, And when the leaves fall it looks like they start to dance

Jim croce on the radio, she says I know how this one goes

But when she tries to sing she never know the notes

Mm

I'm in love with autumn

And that red and yellow tone, And the wind bustling so loud, you never feel alone.

The green on the evergreens is still alright with me,

But even the dead dark brown is pretty to see

mm

Chorus

I'm in love with autumn, that much is true

I'm in love with autumn, but im falling for you too

D,G

falling for you too

Bridge Parentheses mean quick change so switch on 2 instead of 4.

Cd9, G, am7 G

F, G, (Cd9,G) am7

Cd9, G, am7 G

F G (Cd9,G)(am7 a7sus4) d7

The sound of crinkling of golden leaves, beneath your shoe

When I wake up and its cold outside, its okay, cause i like to see the dew

Bundled up in a way too big sweatshirt, underneath the harvest moon

And I think i'm changing because of you, so its cool that the season is changing with me too.

Chorus

Falling for you x3
