Bitter Sweet Taboo (final cut)
final cut: added Jason's tracks (electric power chords + solo); changed drumset and did some vocal tweaking + ocean sounds; added sync piano
This is simply a page for my solo projects, drafts and ideas.
Story behind the song
Barry had this line - "her skin was soft as angle wings, her eyes Bahama blue"... which later turned into a song
Lyrics
Am
The night was cool the sky was dark
A7sus
the moon was low and thin
Dm7
she took me to a place that night
Am
That I’ve never seen.
Am
And what she gave she took away
A7sus
on lonely lovers beach
Dm7
mumbling moaning fumbling love
Am
that’s so out of reach
Lift
Fmaj7
Her skin was soft as angel wings
Fmaj7add11 <--------- (I have no clue what it is: I simply take an open string Fmaj7 and release B string)
E7
her eyes bahama blue
Chorus:
Am
I felt oceans crashing deep inside
Am
Like a hurricane swept right through my mind
F
I knew she just chewed up my pride
E
But I was too blind to see
F
On those sultry shores of Malibu
Am
I could taste that bitter sweet taboo
F7 E7
And I don't know to this day
Am
What came over me
