STEEMIT OPEN MIC WEEK 86 - IF I COULD TRY IT AGAIN (ORIGINAL SONG BY DUSTIN TAYLOR)

---

My friend Dustin wrote this song when we were 17. I learned how to play a version of it years later. Our duo 'Friday Session' still performs it whenever we have the opportunity to play together. It is my entry for Steemit Open Mic week 86. It's called If I Could Try It Again. It's a tragic, yet hopeful tune. 😎

Lyrics

Verse 1

Hey mister do you have a dime
It's cold outside
Hey mister do you ever think you'll have the time
To see what's inside
3 years ago this May
I made up my mind
Life's too hard to turn away
Maybe it's my time.

Chorus
If I could try it again would it be this way
It's hard living my life day by day
I'll take what's with me you know I'll deliver
'Cause you've made me a True Believer

Verse 2

Let's talk about being alone
Or do you even care
It's time for me to come back home
It's somewhere out there.

Repeat Chorus

Breakdown

A nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah X2

Repeat Chorus
