the 2nd and 3rd verse could be better.
i won't make any suggestions myself because i think it's quite useless to make suggestions to anyone about their lyrics.
after all it is THEIRS. I wouldn't like it if someone would correct me on my lyrics. a plain "i liked it" or "i didn't like it" is good enough...

so i liked it, :)

Looks like a blues song to me mate, as for the dues verse; you could try something like this: Loneliness and misery, wont ever cut me loose,
Yeah, loneliness and misery, wont ever cut me loose
And I wake up every morning, with the same old blues. There is one thing (and it's probably just the way I'm thinking right now) but I kept on wanting to use the phrase “same old same old blues” each time.

Cheers

As to chord progression, well, feel free to make that your SCW assignment. Personally, I agree with John on the minor, but I'd probably go with E7 or E9 instead of Em7. I think that would give it more zing. Hey... maybe E7(#9) - the Purple Haze chord!

-Line 6, "Sometimes I hardly sleep" - could be one too many repetitions of "sleep"? You could put something like "I toss and turn all night"... or anything really.

-Verse 3, "dues" seems like an unusual choice of word. Don't be a slave to your rhyme scheme! I checked on rhymezone.com and there are 167 terms which rhyme with blues...

Keep up the good work - and by the way, I hope your song isn't true!]]> Sunday Songwriters Group martin-6 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/year-6-week-1-same-old-blues/#post-270121
