Autograph Aftermath

Description
Wow - I almost forgot I recorded this one... A simple "sister song" to one of my others, Can't Look Away. This song has no drums. I'd like to say this is/was intentional - but the fact of the matter is, I recorded the first few parts sans click track [never a good thing]. Anyway, I kind of like it like this. The guitar solo in the middle cracks me up -- I was obviously listening to a lot of Neil Young's "Cowgirl in the Sand" at the time. Anyway, stripped down and raw -and naked very demo-ish, but hope you like it.

Lyrics
I dropped my anchor
But you drift away
I locked my door
But you still wouldn't stay
I'm running out
Of things to say
To You

I wrote you a letter
But you threw it away
I stopped by your door
But you shooed me away
I always thought I
Could make your day
I do

You won't take any photographs
You won't sign any autographs
You won't take any photographs
You just left me with aftermath

[solos]

[chorus]

I know
You know
We don't go together
I know
You know
I don't care
Why don't we call it quits?
Why don't we give it up?
Why don't we call it quits?
Before our time is up?

[first verse]
[chorus]

That's a hell of a band you have there
I like this - I enjoy your singing and lyrics on this one
especially.
Looking forward to hearing your Bowie/Badfinger type
collab.

About time I commented on the song...
...since I played your picture game from the forum! I was
so close...

I really like the overall sound of this! You have a Bowie-ish
vibrato that I absolutely love!! I like the lyrics on the
chorus especially. My only critique is that the vocals are a
bit pitchy in the beginning. They even out and are much
better toward the end. Very cool song.

I'm 31 and have been playing guitar since I was 9. I really wanted to play the drums, but my mom wanted me to play church songs and Christmas songs, so I took guitar lessons. Didn't really like it at first. Then, in junior high, I discovered The R... [see more]
