V6

[Intro - instrumental, 4 bars; muted guitar hook, warm melodic bass, dry drums entering halfway] [Verse 1 - intimate female vocal, gently rhythmic; sparse Wurlitzer chords, guitar answers between phrases] We met one October night Not knowing at the time That soon our four-hour phone calls Would turn into sharing a life We bought matching necklaces An L and then an A We walked above Hollywood ’Til daylight slipped away [Pre-Chorus 1 - drums pull back; bass rises gently, vocal opens] I knew without thinking It’s as easy as breathing [Chorus - full groove, warm melodic lift; leave breathing room after each phrase] Every time I look at life You’re what I’m grateful for Every time I think I’ve felt it all I love you more I never knew a love Could make me feel this whole You’re more than just my heart You’re part of my soul You’re part of my soul [Instrumental Turnaround - 4 bars; guitar repeats the opening hook, bass adds a melodic answer] [Verse 2 - relaxed, affectionate delivery; bass more conversational, light snare ghost notes] Three hundred fifteen miles Turned to waking up with you Now all our days are magic Nights are city lights and mountain views You’ve seen every side of me And love me as I am There’s nothing better than Falling in love with your best friend [Pre-Chorus 2 - sustained Wurlitzer chords; briefly thin the drums, let the vocal lead] I know what I’m feeling It’s as easy as breathing [Chorus - wider guitar voicings, soft analog synth underneath; lead vocal remains clear and unforced] Every time I look at life You’re what I’m grateful for Every time I think I’ve felt it all I love you more I never knew a love Could make me feel this whole You’re more than just my heart You’re part of my soul You’re part of my soul [Instrumental Break - 8 bars; expressive clean guitar solo develops the opening motif, spacious melodic phrases over the bass groove] [Bridge - drums and guitar fall away; close solo voice, Wurlitzer and sparse bass] I was searching way too long ’Til I finally got it right Now I see the future That I’ve dreamed of all my life [Final Chorus - begin softly with voice and Wurlitzer] Every time I look at life You’re what I’m grateful for [Full groove returns; open hi-hats, melodic bass, warm guitar chords] Every time I think I’ve felt it all I love you more I never knew a love Could make me feel this whole You’re more than just my heart [Subtle upper harmony joins the lead; relaxed sustained vowels] You’re part of my soul You’re part of my soul [Outro - instrumental, 4 bars; opening guitar motif returns over warm bass, final Wurlitzer chord rings naturally]
