about

What came first the chords or the chorus. The chorus of course.
Well sorta. I was groovin' on my Aunt's piano (playing the common progression I–V–vi–IV) when I came up with the chorus melody and lyrics.
That part of the song stayed "on the shelf" for years until I played it for my buddy in Ohio. He flipped out on the chorus and demanded that I finish it. Well I worked out the rest of the concept and plugged away until it was was done. The song's arrangement is interesting in that it has only one verse but two bridge sections. Enough said, check out the story of Bonnie and her poochie Fritz.

lyrics

Intro:
Bonnie lost her job today
and her poochie Fritz
Bonnie needs to get away
Before she loses it

Chorus I:
Gonna send some love your way
Gonna take you on a Holiday
Pack it up we'll leave today
Gonna take you on a Holiday

Verse:
Some days can make or break you oh my dear
That's why I’ve got to get you far from here
You lie awake at night 'til 3
Then wake up with anxiety

Chorus repeat

So let's go !!!

Bridge 1:
Round 'n round we go
When to stop we'll know (4x)

Bridge 2:
Let magic in
Just like a friend at your doorstep
Let magic in
Time to begin to live your life
Come on get high

Chorus (partial) out
Verse (partial) out
