Sometimes I feel – By Jeff Gilpin – 2/18/2021

Some[G]times I feel that
I [Em]don’t know what I’m doing
And I [G]worry that all I’m doing
Is [D]coming out all wrong
Some[G]times I feel that
[Em]Everything I’m doing
Is [C]not going to workout 
When [D]I get to the [G]end

But [D]then I get going
And I feel [Em]better
So I [G]keep pressing on
And [D]start hit my stride
[Em]Then I feel like 
I can do [G]anything
[C]Anything at [D]all

Some[G]times I feel that
I [Em]don’t know where I’m going
[G] Like I’m just sitting there
And [D]spinning my wheels
Some[G]times I feel that
No [Em]matter which direction
I [C]turn will be the wrong way
And end up [D]stuck at a dead [G]end

But [D]then I get going
And I feel [Em]better
So I [G]keep pressing on
And [D]start hit my stride
[Em]Then I feel like 
I can go [G]anywhere
[C]Anywhere at [D]all

Some[G]times I feel that
It [Em]isn’t worth the effort
That [G]all the sweat and blood
I put in will [D]never be enough
Some[G]times I feel that
The [Em]harder that I try
I [C]fall further behind
Until I’m [D]back to the be[G]gin

But [D]then I get going
And I feel [Em]better
So I [G]keep pressing on
And [D]start hit my stride
[Em]Then I feel like 
I can do [G]anything
[C]Anything at [D]all

Times to Look Back on – Jeff G – 9/10/2022

[D]Some days are strong
[D7]Some days are not
[D7]Some days I give you
[G]All that I’ve got
But [G7]never a day
Has [D]ever gone by 
That I [A]haven’t wanted
You by my [A7]side

[D]Some days are weak
[D7]Some days are sad
[D7]Some days happy
[G]Other days mad
[G7]Countless days
And [D]countless hours
But [A]I still get by
You give me the [A7]power

[G]But don’t let me bring you [D]down
If I [A]mention my future [G]demise
[G]I never ever mean to [D]bring
[A]Tears to your beautiful [G]eyes

[G]Your eyes who’ve watched [C]over me
[G]Through good times and bad [C]weather
[G]Times that give me [C]belly laughs
I’d [C]never take back, [A]ever

[D]Some days I feel it 
[D7]Some days I don’t
[D7]Some days it bothers me 
[G]Others I won’t
[G7]Let my mind falter
Or [D]dwell on my fate
[A]Years of good living
I’ve got [A7]no room for hate

So,[D] on days like this one
With [D7]low energy
[D7]Note that my talk means
[G]Not much to me
[G7]It’s just idle chatter
Flowing [D]out of my head
[A]Nothing to worry
Your [A7]beautiful head

So [G]don’t let me bring you [D]down
If I [A]mention my future [G]demise
[G]I never mean to [D]bring you
[A]Tears to your beautiful [G]eyes

Your [G]eyes who always watch [C]over me
[G]Through the times both thick and [C]thin
[G]Memories fond to [C]look back on
And I [C]visit again and a[A]gain [D][G]

Times to Look Back On

Dreaming

Fun song about a wild night - actually wrote it for a challenge using certain words

these are lyrics and chords
Hope you like it  :)



Chorus
[G] Might've fell in love last night, I [C] find it quite I[G]ronic
[G]think it's even worse than when Dylan went ‘lect[D]ronic
Oh it’s [G] driving me so crazy, I’m [Bm] feeling like Miss [C] Daisy
I must be [G] dreaming ‘cause my [D]mind’s a little [G]hazy
.

Verse 1
I [Em]fell so darn [G] hard that I [C] let down my [G] guard
And I [Em] don’t remember [G] much, but I’m al[D]right
got this [Em] picture in my [G]mind, that [C] things’ll work out [G] fine       
just can’t wait to find out [D]what I did last [G] night      
.


 [G]    [G]   [C]   [G]    [G]   [G]  [G]   [D]   [D]
  [G]  [G]  [Bm]   [C]   [G]  [D]    [G]   [G]
.

Verse 2
don’t [Em]remember leavin’ [G] town, if her [C]hair' is black or[G] brown
but I [Em] can’t for[G] get how she made me [D] feel
well [Em] whiskey makes your [G] head spin round [C] leave you laying on the [G] ground    
now I only have to [D] find out if she's [G] real    
.

Chorus
[G] Might've fell in love last night, I [C] find it quite I[G]ronic
[G]think it's even worse than when Dylan went ‘lect[D]ronic
Oh it’s [G] driving me so crazy, I’m [Bm] feeling like Miss [C] Daisy
I must be [G] dreaming ‘cause my [D]mind’s a little [G]hazy
.

Verse 3   ( PLAY SLOWER )
Now [Em] all my money’s [G] spent, don’t know [C] how I’ll pay the [G] rent
but I’ve [Em] got her number,  [G] so I know it's meant to [D]be
well [Em] my head might be [G]aching, but my [C]heart isn’t [G]faking 
(Speed back up )
only hope that when I [D]call she knows it's [G]me    
.

Chorus

yeah last [D]night might've [C]been a little [G]crazy

Last Night

Boy Did It Rain Last Night

A song for Chordie "song of the month" November 2022

RAIN

Pour Me Another Drink

A song I wrote - I don't really want to describe what it's about - it can mean a lot of things to different people I think. the volume level for some reason is screwy - if you use headphones you can hear it fine.
These are the words and chords - sorry for my poor ability to pay or sing :)

The Girl In The Calico Dress


[G]It was just a Sunday [D]morning like [C] all the ones be[G]fore
Nothing unfa[D]miliar, nothing [C]less and nothing more
There were [G]no signs, no [D]secrets, [C]nothing to cause alarm
There was [G]no indi[D]cation,  she was [C]meant any [G]harm
.

[G]Time is so my[D]sterious, it’s [C]spellbound, and passes[G] by
It can it leave you [D]helpless, or [C] leave you asking why
There were[G] no poems [D]or songs, no [C]cryptic notes around
with no [G]answers to the [D]questions asked,no[C] reasons can be [G]found
.


Chorus
[C]She always looked so pretty when she [G]wore that calico dress
Oh her [D]eyes of blue, and lips so sweet, her [C]hair a red hot[G] mess
Yea she [C]stole my heart long ago, when she [G]took me by the hand
and [D]whispered sweet rhymes to me , only [C]she could under[G]stand

[C]she’s no longer with me Lord,  [G]she’s in a better place
But I [D]still hear her laughter, see the[C] lines upon her [G]face
yea the [C]truth is, I miss her so, oh [G] that I must confess
And I’m [D]wishing I could hold the girl, who [C]wore the calico [G]dress 
.


[G] I remember her first [D]smile, first [C] time I saw her[G] eyes
But sometimes the[D]warning signs are [C]so hard to recognize
There were [G], no fore[D]warnings  no [C]hints of the gathering storm   
And it’s [G]left me in this [D] cold world, with just [C] memories to keep me [G]warm

.

Chorus
[C]She always looked so pretty when she [G]wore that calico dress
Oh her [D]eyes of blue, and lips so sweet, her [C]hair a red hot[G] mess
Yea she [C]stole my heart long ago, when she [G]took me by the hand
and [D]whispered sweet rhymes to me ,only [C]she could under[G]stand

[C]she’s no longer with me Lord,  [G]she’s in a better place
But I [D]still hear her laughter, see the[C] lines upon her [G]face
yea the [C]truth is, I miss her so, oh [G] that I must confess
And I’m [D]wishing I could hold the girl, who [C]wore the calico [G]dress 

.

And I’m [D]wishing I could hold the girl, [C]who wore the calico [G]dress 
I’m [D]wishing I could hold the girl, who [C]wore the calico [G]dress 
How I [D]wish I could hold the girl, who [C]wore the calico [G]dress
