LYRICS:
Sometimes things get broken
Sometimes they can mend
Sometimes words are spoken
And forgiven ………in the end

Could be a good thing
Could be a bad thing
Who can tell …..how these things go 
Could be a good thing
Could be a bad thing
Don’t ask me……… I don't know

Old man at the table in the bar-room
Takes a breath and gives a little smile
Drinks his beer …..and thinks about a whiskey 
Just a little comfort…….. for a while

Could be a good thing
Could be a bad thing
Who can tell …..how these things go 
Could be a good thing
Could be a bad thing
Don’t ask me……… I don't know

Young man reaches the crossroads
Wondering if somebody switched the signs
His heart says … take the high road
His head says … that’ll be just fine

Could be a good thing
Could be a bad thing
Who can tell …..how these things go 
Could be a good thing
Could be a bad thing
Don’t ask me……… I don't know

Could Be A Good Thing

Welcome to 2024 and thank you for visiting my Soundcloud page. 
It's great to connect with so many talented musicians here on Soundcloud! On this page you'll find my original songs (including 4 albums) and acoustic guitar instrumentals (including 2 EP's), together with various notes about guitars played, tunings, recording etc.

I am in the process of writing my fifth album which I hope to record at some stage during the year..

Musical influences for me have been many and varied including for example Bert Jansch, John Martyn, Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Mark Knopfler, BB King, Jethro Tull, Pink Floyd, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Fleetwood Mac, Fairport Convention, Paul Simon,  JJ Cale, Eric Clapton, Colin Hay and John Mayer.

Hope you enjoy listening to my music.
