I wrote this song in a similar way as yesterday's. The foundation was written on the acoustic guitar. The chord progression is simple, but I was focused on melodies and the overall dynamics of the song. In the beginning, there is a long/establishing intro, followed by a short section of vocals (echoed by the harmonica), and then it builds into a sing-a-long-style Chorus section. The Chorus section (with vocals) only plays through once. The end of the song is basically like the chorus, only I removed the acoustic guitar and vocals and then added 2 electric guitars. I started this one around 1400, and I completed it around 1900. It took about 5 hours to write, record, mix, and master this song.
LYRICS: "We woke while it was dark. The sun and others (still) sleeping. We hiked for hours from phones. Had the two best seats for the show. With the motion of a butterfly, the precision of a satellite, the beauty of the one you love...You put it in the sky for us."
