Free lyrics/song to do for HMWYGM
Posted: Tue Sep 18, 2007 6:21 am
I'm a freakin' songwriting addict, okay!? Unfortunately, this is ALL I had time for, so if someone wants to cover it, here is a free song(feel free to change and rearrange as needed or wanted, lyrically and/or musically). Here is what I've got:

How Much Will You Give Me?
(um, it's about a bum's life)
VERSE 1
(Em groove)
I see the sun: it shines
oh babe, this soul of mine
I barely stood up
(C-Am)
when you walked on by
I sittin' lonely..
and just a beggin'
I get by, but barely
already I've overspoke
CHORUS
(G-D-Am-C)
how much, will you give me
I lost my own living
or maybe I'm pretending
but I really gotta know..
how much, will you give me <----this part is sketchy
VERSE 2
I seem so scruffy
my clothes are torn
but when I go home
its my butt that's worn
do ya think it's easy?
being a homeless man?
sure there're tax benefits
ya know I do what I can! so...
CHORUS
BRIDGE (no music yet, have fun with it!)
i love it when you feel sorry for me
it reinforces my acting skills
we laugh & joke, then I bum a cig
oh how your contempt could kill
but I move on to the next sucker
perhaps a thoughtful tourist
it's so easy to draw on their pity
I'll always bum the way that's surist
