Slow Train Comin' Down
A#m,C ; F C G
I was born, on down the Road;
My Mother died there, from the cold;
My father tried the best he could
But he couldnt help, cause I Aint no good;
mmm, Some men should never be free,
Men like me;
Woman keeps on waiting,
For something good to come from me;
But I aint got nothin, I aint got no money;
I'm Stuck here, in this life,
with no chance for parole;
Oooh, Slow train, comin down;
Lord Take me away, today;
Lord Take me Away today,
Woman you gave me, LORD
She Burned my soul away...

Oh mah Lord, this one feels good!
Checked out yer chords there: A#m,C ; F C G.
So...what...you're just GIVING the song away...without an audio then?
Would so love to hear this!
Feels like blues...could be wrong....yet the chord-sequence you've chosen....feels darker.....almost avant-garde.....
Your thoughts, poet?
Pen on, whatever you do...please pen on!
Cheers

If there was ever a song for day to recall ones past, this would have be one of the best~
It holds on to the dark temptation, nothing to abominable, just a cool, grey existence~
Calming and almost predatory in the view of it~
A man just preserving his being-there~
Another's voice may ruin the effect for me, though, because the song is played much better inside one's head~
