Taking A Walk Through Life

Male vocalist, soft gentle guitar, rock, ‑country hill billy

[Pre chorus]
Taking a walk through life,
Measuring thick and thin.

[Chorus]
Thinking about the past 
Shaping the future by.
Listening to life's music on the go

Aggressive fast 
Melodic slow 
Middle ground middle measures
Like soft jazz with big band overtures

[Verse One]

Children running in the open air 
Playing at the park, hanging on the roundabout 
Pushing on the swings, going to and fro.
Slipping down the narrow slides with glee 
Shrieks of laughter full of delight 
The battle cry of children, full of innocence.

[Pre chorus]
Taking a walk through life,
Measuring thick and thin.

[Chorus]
Thinking about the past
Shaping the future by.
Listening to  life's music on the go

Aggressive fast
Melodic slow 
Middle ground middle measures
Like soft jazz , with big band overtures.

[Verse two ]

Moody teenagers hanging out 
Faces glued to smart less phones
Losing all intelligence, stuck in Cyber, goodness knows where, land
Lost of all senses of who they really are  (who am I?)
Living in a parallel world unattached to life.
Not a single thought where life is taking them.

[Pre chorus]
Taking a walk through life,
Measuring thick and thin.

[Chorus]
Thinking about the past,
Shaping the future by.
Listening to life's music on the go

Aggressive fast [bass guitar]
Melodic slow [acoustic guitar]
Middle ground middle measures
Like soft jazz with big band overtures.

[Verse Three]

Up and Up adults now twenties thirties and beyond
Constant pressures – stressing out 
Keeping pace with the Joneses or losing out.
So many cares and anxieties:
Mortgages, Jobs, Kids, to name three.
What happened to the visions of youth?

[Pre chorus]
Taking a walk through life,
Measuring thick and thin.

[Chorus]
Thinking about the past 
Shaping the future by.
Listening to life's music on the go.

Aggressive fast 
Melodic slow 
Middle ground middle measures
Like soft jazz , with big band overtures.

[Verse four]

Coming up on later years, bodies take a hit. 
Call it age, call it lifestyle preferences.
It’s too late to regret choices of the past
Living within the shadows of yesteryear
How long you stay around on earth
Often depends on how you shaped your life.

[Pre chorus]
Taking a walk through life,
Measuring thick and thin.

[Chorus] 
Thinking about the past,
Shaping the future by.
Listening to life's music on the go.

Aggressive fast 
Melodic slow 
Middle ground middle measures
Like soft jazz with big band overtures

Taking a walk through life,
Measuring thick and thin.
