upbeat positivity optimism serendipity
Artist picture
Singer-songwriter, arranger and producer: acoustic contemporary folk but ranging into rock/blues/country/jazz/humour...all very eclectic, I'm afraid!
Martin Stirrup Singer/songwriter An old folkie who got back into it... These days I sing and play guitar(s) and other stringed instruments, then score and orchestrate where appropriate. My taste becomes increasingly eclectic ranging from finger-picked folk through country to soft rock mixed in with a few more alternative and eccentric numbers, including the odd novelty foxtrot...

Story behind the song
I'm a great believer in serendipity and taking opportunities when they arise - something that can be inhibited by overplanning... also a nostalgic reflection, of course
Lyrics
CO 08 Fine Dmaj7 Dm7b5 E7E7BmBEA x2 F#mBmG G6A F#mBmE DG AA7 It all worked out fine We just took the liberty to trust to to serendipity this time It all worked out fine You can't beat spontaneity It really is the way to be sometimes You can plan till your brain hurts Scam for your deserts But you may end up dissatisfied You can aim for a highlight Flag it up starbright But the end should never be the point of the ride It all worked out fine The things we rejected Turned out unexpectedly To be the best part of the ride It all worked out fine The highs and the so-so s Outweighed any real lows Whichever way you choose to decide You can plan in tandem But it's hard to beat random When things pop up unexpectedly I'm not trying to extol The way that the dice rolls But it helps to have some fluidity BmBmEE BmBmE GA x2 Don't overplan There's just too much background noise Don't overplan Or else you'll miss out on spontaneous joys You may think you know where you' d like to be But there's the train in the station and with more information You never know what you might see It'll work out fine You need to trust That when may becomes must You'll make a sensible call It'll work out fine You're bound to earn From all that you've learned To make it once and for all You hear no sound as the world goes round But still you know it's true You can take a shot When you've got a lot I know you know that's true
