Yes, it does call for a minor key. And maybe some diminished chords.]]> Sunday Songwriters Group Hobson https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/y13w34-on-fathers-day/#post-386230 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/y13w34-on-fathers-day/#post-386229 Tue, 23 Jun 2015 23:59:33 +0000 It seems like you are going to the chorus a bit too often. I would think two trips to the chorus bar would give you your fill.]]> Sunday Songwriters Group John Sargent https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/y13w34-on-fathers-day/#post-386229 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/y13w34-on-fathers-day/#post-46114 Tue, 23 Jun 2015 02:27:50 +0000
verse:

On Father's Day I buy a card.
Picking out a gift is hard.
A gift for someone who is always sad.
I don't know how to help you, Dad.

chorus:

Birth fathers, stepfathers,
Those who adopted.
Father figures,
Saints and sinners.
All fathers I've wanted
On Father's Day.

verse:

The devil comes when you talk to God.
Aunt Clara says you were always odd.
I wonder how Mom ever fell in love.
Some days I think she's had enough.

chorus

verse:

You never give anyone a hug.
For you a handshake is too much.
I've never heard a word of praise.
I had a long rebellious phase

chorus

instrumental bridge

verse:

You gamble the mortgage payment away
Then tell us we've only got a few days
To come up with a way to pay.
Somehow we find a way to stay.

chorus

verse:

You play solitaire for hours on end.
I never invite my friends
To watch the game that you never win
And whisper about the loony bin.
