Christmas Jubilee

I know its late in the year but i wrote this christmas song for a ................ um............... i cant say party cuz it was kind of lame. anyway i performed it and people seemed to like it.

Christmas Jubilee
By jarrett childers

snow is falling is blankets outside
and thats exactly what we're cuddled in near the fire side
i look into your eyes and you smile back at me
i grab a pen and paper and write this jubilee

Christmas is a magical time
where you can find what your lookin for
me im lookin for your love
as we're cuddled up near this firestove

Chorus
take me and this christmas jubilee
and we will fly together up into the trees
take me and this christmas jubilee
and we will fall in love on this christmas eve

strum solo

Repeat chorus

END

Man with no name

Hey! its not a love song:D its kind of a lonesome song with a bit of a religious reference to it. see if you can pick it up.

Man with no name
By jarrett childers
( no music to it yet)

On a dusty road
in a counrty unknown
there is a man
who has always been alone

he wanders that roadway
no one knows where he goes
he is just a lonely beggar
who everyone seems to know

Chorus
but no one quite knows his name
and no one ever gives him a ride
but with him its not the same
cant you see there is more than what meets the eye

he may be a beggar
but he knows more than me
in reality he is wiser
than i could ever be

he knows the secrets
deep in our hearts
by looking in our eyes
he tells each of us apart

and if any man would pick him up
and help him on his way
the nameless man would lift them up
and help them fly away

Repeat chorus

Hey its not a love song! well its the other side of love... heart break meh:P its kinda a depressing song so uh............... enjoy?

Take the pain

Chord combo
G, D, Am, Em

Take the pain away
Take it from my heart
I cant bear to stay

So who says you cant say
You love me again?
Just take it away

No stars tonight
No shining moon
Just me and my heart
And its bleeding wounds

Take the pain away
Take it from my heart
I cant bear to stay
My love has been ripped apart

Im waiting for the sun
to rise and sear my wounds
My sorrow is all done
Its time for time to sooth

My

And i fall, fall, deeper in love
And its all, all, spoken of
But few feel the way that i do

No demands, its just us for the day

your not on your own
together for eternity

Has somebody told you lately

This song was one of my first and i wrote it for a girl i dated for about a year. she kinda had this weird thing about saying she was ugly all the time which was totally untrue, so i wrote this song for her. PS i forgot the music for it sorry:P

Has somebody told you lately
By Jarrett Childers

Has somebody told you lately
That you are beautiful?
has somebody told you lately
that you are wonderful?
has somebody told you
you brighten my life?
have they told you
how your eyes shine?

if not, then let me

you are beautiful
you are wonderful
you can brighten my life
and oh how your eyes shine tonight

Repeat first verse

If not, then let me

your wonderful, your beautiful
you brighten my life
your wonderful, your beautiful
oh how your eyes shine

has somebody told you lately that you are loved?
oh you are loved

Running through a dream

This is a poem i "accidently" wrote while trying to write some lyrics ha ha. the timing is off so i didnt put music to it but i still like it. hope you do too:)

Running through a dream
By Jarrett Childers

Im running full speed
Head tilted down
As i hit the ground
Fog rushing past me

Everything is a blur
In this endless dream
I can hear her now
I can hear her scream

Im coming to you
Im running to you
Through twists and turns
Through scratches and burns
Ill save you

Time slows down
As i hit the ground
Yet i still cant see you
this dream a wall i must break through

Time and space

This one is more like poem but i went ahead and added a chord combo anyway cuz i felt like it:)

Time and space
By Jarrett Childers

Am, Fmaj7, G, C

I traveled to a place
That halted time and space
And thats where i found you
Your beauty rocked me through and through

And yet you leave me
lying alone
its like you cant see me
im made of stone

i cant cry out
until you loose my lips
with a kiss
with a kiss

I traveled to a place
That sped time and space
thats where i found you
your beauty shocked me through and through

Repeat second verse

END

Wings

This song is a love song i wrote when a friend of mine said she had sworn off love and i just could beleive her. who can live without love? a life without love is no life at all:) ps: a good portion of my songs are love songs cuz they are my favorite to write:)pss: d/f is a chord i made up but i dont know what its called. its like a D7 but your move the e string down one fret:)

Wings
By jarrett childers

D
You say you have sworn off love
D/F
But i dont talke you seriously
C
Your beauty is from above
G
Your eyes hold deep in mystery
(same chord pattern for each line)

I can see you smile
My heart flys in the clouds
Ive loved you for a while
But now you give me doubts

How can you feel love
if you dont fall in it?
You say youve had enough
of the hurt and what goes with it

Chorus

But if you dont give
your heart wings
it will never fly
can i pull some strings
that will make you mine ( this line you dont play on the guitar you just sing)

Chorus repeat

END

COmment!!

First song

So this is my first legit song i have written since i have started writing a couple of years ago. Feel free to comment:) I have not changed the song at all because i think it gives it originality and i like that, even though if i had written something like that NOW i would change a lot:)
PS: the letters are chords for guitar:)

Sun comes up

G
Who wants to sing about anything
C
Nowadays
G
Nothing to fear, yet no one is here
C
Nowadays
D
Risks are not taken love is not found
C
All our hope crashes to the ground

Chorus

G
But then the sun comes up

And we spread our wings

We all look up

and see everything
D
Possibilities endlessly
C
falling from the sky lets spread our wings and fly
End of Chorus

V2
G
Addicted to drama, and grudges we hold
C
Nowadays
G
Insulting revolting we all are so bold
C
Nowadays
D
I wonder if we would say all the things
C
We say in our heads

Repeat Chorus

V3
G
But when i see you the dew and the blue
C
Evaporates
G
the gloom and the sorrow the fear for tomorrow
C
Evaporates
D
Dont go down or dim your light
C
With you here there's no need for trial or fight

Repeat Chorus
