Lyrics: Part 2 - Leave It All Behind

Today's lyric sheet involves "Ch ch ch changes" that were made for the song Leave It All Behind. If you take a look at these pictures you can see all of the things that change from the original idea to the finished product. You can listen to the actual finished song by clicking here.

One thing that you might notice is that I wrote in 3 or 4 different types of ink, so my Dexteresque detective reasoning tells me that this song was not written all at once. Probably over many days. So many times songwriting for me is not getting struck by lightening and BAM out comes a full fledged idea. It takes work and time. But for me, often times that process is pretty magical.

Another thing that happened is the guitar tuning of the song changed. It eventually ended up being in DADFBE but on this sheet it was DADFAE.

Also, the lyrics have changed quite a bit from what they were. A verse was chopped of when I started recording the song. Oh yea, in "Todd Talk" underlining words means to put emphasis on them and "Bam Bam Bam" means to syncopate the words just in case you were wondering lol.
