    Default Writers block

    My new band I'm in is trying to make a set list of all songs that we write. I've been working on one for a few days now and can't get off the Second verse and would like some help. It's a rocking tune kinda like " just a swinging " by john Anderson with that echord.

    Here is a little of what I got

    She was staring at me from across the room
    So I walked on over flashed her a smile

    I can't finish that line :/ can anyone help me?

    She was staring at me from across the room
    So I walked on over flashed her a smile
    She took a good look at my F5G
    Then she passed me a card with a number to dial

    Or how about:
    She was staring at me from across the room
    So I walked on over flashed her a smile
    She told me her name was Annalee
    So I bought her a drink and we talked for a while
    (Been wanting to use that name in a lyric for years!)

    Maybe:
    I was never a believer in first impressions
    But something about her made me stay for a while

    Music speaks to us all. And to each of us, she speaks with a different voice.

    And adjusted my nut action with her nail file

    Luthier woman! She's never lazy
    Luthier woman! Her inlay drives me crazy!

    From across the room she rolled her eyes at me
    So I rolled them back for all to see.

    I must admit I was taken by her style
    or
    sure was hoping for a number to dial
    or
    she sure stood out from the rank and file
    or
    didn't think I had a chance was I in denial?
    or
    I knew this was gonna be more than a trial
    or
    if I had any money I'd have given her a pile ( well that line should come after the part about the eventual divorce)

    Late joining the writers party


    Now on to the next verse if I can think of it
    "She was staring at me
    Woohoo....across the room
    Cool girl staring at me
    Across a country mile
    "How do you do?!"
    Up I came
    To Anna Lou
    That sweet ol'
    Anna Lou
    Hey honey
    You put my name on file"








    PS - I failed poetry and romance in high school :D
