A song I wrote when trying out alternate tuning on my guitar. This tuning is GBEGAD, which creates quite melancholic sounds.

Story behind the song
A song written with my guitar tuned to GBEGAD. The lyrics are about how you can sometimes doubt whether you are in the right place and that maybe it's time for a change of some kind. Maybe even a major change..
Lyrics
Where are the roads that I need, to go on?
Wide open roads that will carry me home.
I wandered so long on a wide open plain.
I tried to walk tall, but I lost my way.
I need direction, I need some advise.
I need to listen to that voice inside.
No matter where you go.
Don't leave your heart behind.
Without it, there's nothing to find.
There's so much chaos, going on in my head.
Maybe it's time now, to take a look inside.
And do a bit of cleanup, clear up my view.
And leave that thing behind, the one I should do.
I need direction, I need some advise.
I need to listen to that voice inside.
No matter where you go.
Don't leave you heart behind.
Without it, there's nothing to find.
