Title: Drawn To You (PVD/Soulfrontier/GuitarGeorge/Steffen/Andy)
Post by: AndyG6508 on September 06, 2012, 04:54:03 PM
A simple summer tune....

This is a version of it, while we wait for J and Asy to come back to MCS. Hopefully soon.

Nice contributions from every one involved...and my Dad loves this song :).

Drawn To You (Lyrics: Paul Dempsey, Music:Andy/Guitargeorge)

bpm=136

(v1)
        D
Like a breeze through the trees
 
I feel you coming my way
     Em7                 A                   
If I close my eyes I hear the sighs
        Em7                 A             
There are no words to say

(v2)
You scent's so sweet; our eyes meet
I feel I'm frozen in place
And I find every single time
Love in your embrace

(chorus)
           D
It's our morning commune
It can't come too soon
           Em7               A
Like the ocean and the moon
           Em7          A
There's little I can do
           D
I'm so drawn to you
So drawn to you

(v3)
It's hard to resist
Your morning kiss
Touching skin, the warmth within
I can only surrender

(bridge)
Bm                F#/Bflat
Many lovers    enjoy the night
D/A            Esus4/G#
But I prefer daybreak
G5                      A
Seeing you in the first light
             D
From the moment I awake
  Bm                       Bm F#/Bflat x2
I love being with you

Solo - same chords as verse

(chorus)

Im so drawn to you
So drawn to you
Im so drawn to you

Personnel:

Paul Dempsey (PVD) : Lyrics
Holger Bremer (Soulfrontier) : Vocals

Yo guys, I was wondering what happened to this one  Holger made this so easy and fun I was waiting for it to be complete.  George on guitar is a change since his singing has taken off so well.  Everyone thank you for letting me be involved with this one.

P.S.  Andy, I like your father and I don't even know him, but his taste is good.

Paul

Very nice track guys! GG's guitar sounds great and that little lead break is dynamite :) Great composition, arrangement and lyrics too, and my favourite MCS singer  ... superb!

Mick.

Thanks Mark!

Yeah Holger has that Lennon thing going with his vocals. And GG is actually a dormant guitar god...he knows all the fancy chords!

Hey Paul,

Good to get another fine lyric of yours set to music. The music suggested itself the moment I first read your words.

You know , I really do think you will get along well with my dad if you met him. He is a surgeon nearing retirement but he loves being involved with poetry, music and writing. When I visited him recently I played this track to him and he liked the soft arrangement and the gentle hopefulness of the lyric.

The next one then.

Andy

Hi Henry,

Much appreciated, McCartney is one of my all time fav songwriter/bass players.

I tried to make it Revolver meets the White Album with the brass thing as well.

Hi Mick,

Thank you muchly for the kind words - thrilled you liked it.

Yes, GG played a little killer break, and it is good to hear Holger's voice again he hasn't been on here much lately.

Andy

I did not know we were done with this song - wasn't that just a progress mix with midi drums? I don't remember ...

But I do remember that I liked the song from the first day. Another proof of your songwriting skills, Andy.

George, play more guitar! You can always do both. :)

Holger, you have just the right voice for this song.

Regards,
  Steffen

Hi Steffen,

Yes, we were waiting for real drums...and waited and waited!

Listening to it yesterday I thought it sounded great as it is, hence the post. We can always remix if we get more tracks?

Thanks for the kind words about the songwriting. You helped a lot to sculpt the sound.

Cheers
Andy
