Simon Waldram Great album concept. 14 beautiful / heartfelt / funny / strange tracks from one of my very favorite songwriters. The first album since 2003's brilliant Songs of a Bitter Heart, but hopefully with a lot more to come. Favorite track: G Chord(Can Laughter).

A Chord(Romantic Sophia) 01:55
lyrics
Sophie loves romance while in a trance When I see her dance she says hello to me Are you now alone inside The wall you can not fall Can I come into your grippy mind We need a little more time.
2.
B Chord(Its Only The Drugs) 02:13
lyrics
Hello hello how low does it need to go What you've latched onto here Most sane mind would refuse to follow So far she's ok But you know even monsters need their sleep It's only The drugs that stops her from killing everyone Zesty and crazy and at time testy She could be you best friend But only if your name is satan

C Chord(Destroy Me) 02:09
lyrics
I can't absorb this pain forever somethings got to give I'm afraid it may be me Can I maybe walk away it just didn't seem to work out that way I've been down that road and you found me I just need some time to be free from you anxiety please Its destroying me It may destroy me forever

D Chord(Country Dee Jay) 02:00
lyrics
I’m a country deejay I spin a lot of shit country music For the listening pleasure of shit country boys and girls But when I’m not spinning these tunes My tastes they follow a slightly different muse I like to listen to some funky Hip Hop Hey even the a boy from the country Can enjoy a little bit of diversity Is it too much to ask for? Yo is it too much? Coming up next Shania Twain I feel like a woman Its killing me all this shit it is killing me Its killing me all this fucking shit is killing me Next up Achy Breaky Heart by Billy Ray Cyrus

E Chord(Gotta Believe) 01:38
lyrics
Is it so impossible to deal with you without the put downs Can we not just get a long and lift each other off the ground We can win successfully We can gain a tremendous victory We will achieve We gotta believe Could we simultaneously produce the same notes to a pleasing effect? That doesn’t involve throwing fruit at each others head or wishing each other dead Fuck it you bitch Fuck this fuck it

F Chord(Little Bit Of Time) 01:57
lyrics
In this life we only have a little bit of time a little bit of time a little bit of time Because in this life only have a little bit of time We had better make the most of it while we can I don't have time to be blaming anyone be drowned by past regrets I need to have some fun I enjoy every day seeing my family grow I dream of how great thing could go

G Chord(Can Laughter) 02:04
lyrics
Can laughter Take back a part of me that's died Can laughter Make sleeping on a bench seem alright I can't sleep in gutter tonight its Friday The soup kitchens open tomorrow morning its meal day And I'm hungry I'm so tired and hungry Can't wait till Monday That is when I see Larry Larry has a cool way of begging for money He sits with his head to the ground with his cardboard sign It say Ninja's killed my family I need money for Kung fu lessons

Amid amuck amoral amusement am amending American amigos Amorphous amidships amplifies amazement amateurs Amorists amassing amidst Amyl Ambulance Amputee amused amotions Amazon amity ammo amount amasses Amnesiac ambitions ambiance ambushed

Bm Chord(Stevia) 02:31
lyrics
think I’d drink some whisky that will help me when depressed While Hankering in a pipe dream I hear also sitting in darkness will help you rise again While Hankering in a pipe dream I’m fed up with the morose gloomy bad tempered bastard I’ve become While Hankering in a pipe dream I feel like something very bad is happening to me I’m craving to find out who I used to be Energy dissolves like Stevia in my chamomile tea x2 Lately I’m a lost cat who barks like a mongrel hound While Hankering in a pipe dream I shoot people often in my mind with my angry look While Hankering in a pipe dream I feel like something very bad is happening to me I’m craving to find who I used to be Energy dissolves like Stevia in my chamomile tea x2

Cm Chord(Better Hurry Up) 02:28
lyrics
I will trudge along the parade Drag myself through this cloudy day Hanging heavy limping along unevenly into this shamble song now you see the sky is falling better hurry up and pass out x2 with a quick jab I was knocked right out I fell straight on top of a cat Poor little cat died completely flat
11.
Dm Chord(Like The Cheese) 02:38
lyrics
You had better like the cheese Swing high Swing low Swing like tempo You had better like the cheese Aim High Aim Low Aim with tempo
12.
Em Chord(Resolve) 02:48
lyrics
Malicious people fuck over the good People are unhappy sadly I’m not planning on going anywhere Please knock on wood As I am fortunate to have a lovely family But I know that in any sunny sky clouds are never too far away So I know there will be many many more shitty days I guess I just have to hang in there Stand my ground Fight my way through the city crowds It took all her determination to stand her ground Resolve x4
13.
Fm Chord(Go On) 02:02
lyrics
I will hug you as long as it takes as long as you hang on Think of me as your number one resource go on and try it I know you feel this hopelessness but I hope I never so you go It's not too late now." You can go on." You have everything to live for We all get tired of life sometimes I care about what happens to you There is so much left to do The pain will stop

Gm Chord(Uni Wanker) 02:00
lyrics
Trendy people say I like to sip on my chai latte I like sit around the university Sipping on my chai latte On the weekend at a dance party I like to hug my pretentious friends enjoying ecstasy

about

Songs created between 1 and 27 February 2014 as part of the FAWM 2014 Challenge. I entered the challenge with concept idea of doing Single Chord songs throughout. While it lacks a certain polish which some non songwriting challenged tracks may possess I would have spent an average production time per track of around 30 minutes each song. I decided not to try to polish the results of this as getting caught up in making a better mix is what normally leads me to not ever releasing any of my music. I think there are some tracks that are well worth investing some time on. Thanks to those who take the time to listen.
