I’ve tried my best to count the ways
You’ve changed my life each and every day
And been there by my side, thru thick and thin
But a number seems so undefined
And hard to phantom in my mind
And my meager words can’t even begin
To say how much I’ve come to find
How your words and love have intertwined
To light the way for the shadows in my mind
Verse 2
You gave me hope at your sacrifice
You make me gaze upon this life
You see the best, when the worst comes out of me
And when my road seams so unclear
You stand your ground, and make me face my fear
You’re never ending love is always near
For you always seem to have the time
When my clouded path is hard to find
And light the way for these shadows in my mind
Chorus
Now two steps towards this rising sun
Where my hopes and dreams have just begun
To rise above these darkened walls I made
And I know that if this demons face
Tries to enter my new found place
You’ll be there by my side to guide my way
MUSIC
So these words I pen I hope you’ll find
Heart felt meaning in these lines
As you light the way for the shadows in my mind

Beautiful acoustic work! I wish I could stay that clean when I've got more than one in the mix.
Sonar seems to be working out well for you ( my program of choice too ) .
You really maximized that chord progression - stayed fresh without moving outside a pretty straight forward framework.
Your lyric is worthy of a 2nd listen, - which I'm doing now
This is great work Jim !

<p>Played for alot of years in basement bands doing bars and such. As life changed it's course towards wifes and kids, the guitars got dusty. As fellow members retired from their real jobs we decided to try it again but have some fun this time around. Well we did it for 3 years doing campgrounds and coffee shops and that was enough, tooooo old to haul equipment and not good enough to have a road crew, so I as others, decided to have some fun recording my tunes to the biggest audience anywhere, the internet. I live in Churchville, New York which is west of Rochester, matter of fact just down the road a peice from Razmuth.Thanks to Raz who found me on Sound Click and talked me into trying this site, good move. Many thanks to everyone on this site who have worked hard to create it and maintain it and give me the outlet I need.</p>
