Great vocals!  Nice stripped down acoustic song.

Nice guitar strumming with good vocals as well.

I love the guitar sound you achieved , another solidly good track - well done !

This is an older one, but I think it's worth sharing.

Gridlock

This tune was written for the 1939 movie "The Wizard of Oz" and performed by me here on my Yamaha PSR-SX900 arranger keyboard.

Lunar Hypnosis

A song about trust and being let down and left to the wolves.

"Trevor Said" by These Guitars Say Sorry is a raw, emotional acoustic ballad featuring only percussively strummed guitar and heartfelt vocals delivered in a distinct British accent. With minimalist instrumentation, the song paints vivid portraits of everyday struggles and personal stories, blending folk-rock with social commentary. The stripped-down arrangement allows the poignant lyrics and gritty vocal performance to take center stage, echoing influences from British folk and working-class protest songs. It's a powerful reflection on life’s hardships, resilience, and the scars we carry.

Lyrics

Trevor said he never expected
The thoughts in his head to amount to anything 

Jennifer sits alone in her bedroom
Wondering why the phone never rings


Cathy thinks she wants a divorce
Her husband Jeff doesn’t know it yet


Lucia’s worked 10 years in a factory 
Doesn’t see her kids
But it pays the rent


Can I paint you a picture?
Have you seen it before?
The life and the love and the loss
And yet you ask for more


Life is hard, you can pretend but anyway
How frail we are
Here tomorrow gone today
The pain’s so sharp take me, take me far away
Yet here we are
Showing off the scars we made


Edna said she never expected
To live this long but the end is nigh


The teenage years are always the hardest
Melissa texts and wonders why 

David’s waiting for life to get started 
Anna wishes she had a plan


Christian sits there broken hearted
Thomas is ready to make a stand


Can I paint you a picture?
Have you seen it before?
The life and the love and the loss
And yet you ask for more


Life is hard, you can pretend but anyway 
How frail we are
Here tomorrow gone today
The pain’s so sharp take me, take me far away
Yet here we are
Showing off the scars we made


You can pretend but anyway
You can pretend but anyway
Life's Hard

LAS VEGAS
Sorry it’s me and I’m sorry again
But remember you said that we could still be friends
And I know I can’t tell you the where and the when
But I’ve every intention of meeting again

Oh a train into London, a ticket to Greece
And a bottle of vodka a night on the beach
And we’re out in the evening and under the tree
With a joint in our fingers and toes in the sea

Where - Somewhere new maybe - the Outer Hebrides
You always have said.  bring Las Vegas baby
True - You will bring me down. And I should really go
But I feel your eyes . say Las Vegas baby

My arms are tiring from holding this up
Oh but I will go on til you tell me to stop
Yes I know we are running like Thelma Louise
But when I hear you laugh it is setting me free

Oh and one more hotel and some more stolen food
And a bucket of problems that no-one can use
Can you please hold my hand and just say it’s OK
And we’ll both keep supporting the world for a day

Now..     All I seem to dream of.     Is mid-afternoon.       In Las Vegas.
