This song was created as a collaboration organized by American Songwriter (americansongwriter.com). This was initially two three hour sessions organized and moderated by Dean Fields. The initial prompt was "Falling in or out of love" and we were encouraged to use repetition in the song.

We decided to write the song from the perspective of someone that has lost the love of their life a few years ago, and is slowly coming to grips with the idea that they have overcome the feelings of grief to live again.

I worked with Tim Shay and Marty Collins to craft this song over the course of a few days. We all worked together on lyrics and progression. Tim crafted the vocals, Marty provided guitar work, and I produced, mixed, and mastered the result.

Here are the lyrics and chords for anyone interested:

INTRO
Gm Gmsus2 | Gm (1 beat pause)

VERSE 1
Gm Gm7 | Eb Ebsus2 | Bb Bb7 | Dm Dm7
Gm Gm7 | Eb Ebsus2 | Bb Bb7 | Dm Dsus2
I'm nursing my head, thinking ‘bout what I’ve done
It’s been four years, you think I’d have moved on
But sitting here now and I can't help feeling torn

And I know the answer won't come in a glass
But that's been my only way of forgetting the past
When you left this world
When you left this world

PRE
Ebsus2 Eb F | Gm Gmsus2 | Ebsus2 Eb F | Gm Gmsus2 | Ebsus2 Eb F | Bb Eb | Eb | F | rest
But I can’t live this way any longer
I know that I can be stronger
I will rise above my deepest fear
And I’ll try to make it through
For you

CHORUS
Gm | Eb | Bb | Dm | Gm | Eb | Bb | F | F | F
I’m searching tonight
For my inner light
Looking inside
Looking inside
I’m ending this fight
And laying down my pride
Looking inside
'Til I feel alive

VERSE 2
Gm Gm7 | Eb Ebsus2 | Bb Bb7 | Dm Dsus2
I don’t need devotion, or someone’s embrace
Just a little emotion, behind this face
I’m healing now, I can feel it in my soul



PRE
Ebsus2 Eb F | Gm Gmsus2 | Ebsus2 Eb F | Gm Gmsus2 | Ebsus2 Eb F | Bb Eb | Eb | F | rest
No I won’t live that way any longer
Cos I know that I can be stronger
I will rise above my deepest fear
And I’ll try to make it through
For you

CHORUS 2
Gm | Eb | Bb | Dm | Gm | Eb | Bb | F 
I’m searching tonight
for my inner light
Looking inside
Looking inside

I’m ending this fight
And laying down my pride
Looking inside
'Til I feel alive

POST CHORUS SOLO
Gm | Eb | Bb | Dm | Gm | Eb | Bb | F | rest

BRIDGE
Ebsus2 Eb F | Gm Gmsus2 | Ebsus2 Eb F | Gm Gmsus2 | Ebsus2 Eb F | Bb Eb | Eb | F | rest
Falling out and falling in
I’m learning how to trust myself now
Falling out and falling in love
With me

CHORUS 3 x 2
G | Eb | Bb | D | G | Eb Bb F

I’m searching tonight
For my inner light
Looking inside
Looking inside
I’m ending the fight
And laying down my pride
Looking inside
Til I feel alive

OUTRO
Gm | Gm | Gm | Gm

I do not own the art used on my profile besides the 2 logos, drawn by a good guy in the itsBOOFY community! Much love ❤️

I write, produce, and sing my own songs as an outlet for my feelings. Being born British, we tend to bottle things up, so here's me letting go.

If you find yourself listening more than once or a little longer than usual, please like, follow, and repost as this means the most musicians trying to grow their base, please. This platform as others is not based on merit. Thank you.

Robert E Flynn III is a software-developer, author and musician from San Antonio, TX. He is living with his beautiful fiancé, Claudia, whose delightful, positive outlook on life has given him the motivation to finish this work. He has two wonderful children, Caitlin and Zachary, who are grown and exploring their own fantastic lives. He has spent his entire life pursuing creative endeavors. Music was his first love and still is, and writing was always part of his life. 
Robert lived in Austin, Texas for many years and was part of the music scene in the city during that time. He was a member of several bands during those days and tremendously enjoyed playing live in many venues in the music rich area. Music is a great example of our creativity, which speaks to the Creation of all things. He also lived in Denver, Colorado for several years when his children were young and then relocated back to San Antonio, Texas to be close to family.
Night of the Living Dead was recorded at Salmon Peak Studio in San Antonio, Texas.  Mark Sinko acted as the recording engineer and also contributed a guitar part on the song.  Robert Flynn’s longest friend, Brian “Red” Moore played bass on the track as well.  Brian is the lead recording engineer at Q Productions in Corpus Christi, Texas. Q Productions is owned by the famous music artist, Selena Quintanilla-Pérez’s father.  Brian also plays bass and sings on most of the tracks I currently have on Soundcloud.  In addition to Brian, other contributors and long time friends are on these recordings also.  Jerry Bazil, from Michigan, plays drums on several tracks. Bobby Lancaster, from Texas, plays drums on several tracks as well.  Also, Joe Mota, from Texas,  plays keyboards on several tracks (Sadly, Joe is no longer with us, but he was a genius in many ways musically and an inspiration to me). 
I play keyboards, guitar, drums and vocals throughout these tracks.
