Just a song that came to me upon awakening this morning...not perfect but all mine...

Walking, Talking Broken Heart By: Fee G Scattered bones of last nights KFC C Empty rum bottle at his knee D7 C G Four days beard says he just don’t care Guitar stained from cigarette smoke Not to mention one too many tokes Four days gone since she wasn’t there Spending nights playing the blues Close to the phone waiting for news Starts his day wishing she was there G *He’s just a walking, talking broken heart* C *Since she just they had to part* D *He just don’t know where to start* *C D G* *Just another walking, talking broken heart* Shakes the cobwebs from his head Falls into their unmade bed Add a few more tearstains to the score Exhaustion takes him for a ride Where he can salvage his wounded pride All he hears is just her slamming door Dreams once more of things like holding hands Things nobody else understands Lost his mind and heart forever more

Sounds like the one evening of mine in Mallorca, then I wrote, perhaps I was hearing the twang of that guitar calling me...

Anytime you wake up with words/melody, pen them, sing them, play them - they usually are winners - as this one is - well done -
