Huge thank you to Anthony, the folks at GemsOnVHS, and everyone who listened to my songs much love to you all

[@brazenlilhussy5975]

Fookin loved it man!! Found myself playing along after the first verse, not enough thinly veiled might be 'murder ballads' with beatiful melodies if you ask me and its a nice juxtaposition!!😉Some really good writing here bud, hope to hear a bit more..you got your own YT?

[@jakereid6499]

Thanks for the music man I look forward to exploring more after hearing this heat.

[@cedarriver]

Like the straight forward lyrics combined with that classic I-IV-V-I chord pattern! Chords and lyrics below and on UG as always folks Standard tuning, no Capo. Some standard hammer-ons and pull-offs happening here, shout if you can't get them yourself Verses G / G G7 / C G / D C G Chorus C G / C G D D7 / G C / G D G Interlude G / G G7 / C G / D C G Chorus 2 C / G / C / G D D7 [Verse 1] And that ring on your finger, it tears you apart And you tell me each day how I'm breaking your heart And I know I'll never be anywhere, it's true And I can't keep wasting my time alone here with you [Verse 2] And that ring on your finger is like lies on a tongue And the sunset don't look like it did when you were young And the smell of the morning makes you think "Lord, what did I do?" And I can't keep wasting my time alone here with you [Chorus] Why don't you pack up and hit the road, never come home? Oh I would but the house is paid off and I'm too damn broke for a loan If you would quit talking me down we maybe could work something out Till then I'll be down in the basement, I'm tired of you [Interlude] [Verse 3] And that ring on your finger was a year of my life Chopping up firewood to make you my wife And your friend said I was cheating, but I was broke, that's all I could do And I can't keep wasting my time alone here with you [Chorus] I got my hand on a shovel and a yard perfect green I'm headed to town for a bag of grass seed If you don't quit your bitching before I get back from town I'll put all our problems deep under the ground [Interlude] [Verse 4] Now that ring on your finger, it's covered in dirt And the sun's coming up, I gotta get back to work And gonna sleep in my bed for the first time since I said I'd do And I'll live out the rest of my life alone here with you

[@metalheadsmith]

I can’t find it on UG, what do I type in the search?

[@thereverendsam413]

Great song, nice performance. I wish the mandolin was more audible.

[@brianbrianbification]

Love this shit

[@krossyourpath]

Why didn't you record the mandolin? Bet it sounded good

[@GemsOnVHS]

We did, if you listen with headphones you can hear it better. Unfortunately the microphone on him was giving me issues with echoing Tyler's vocals. Couldn't fix it so I nixed it, and its only being picked up by Tyler's mic. It's always an experiment, doing field recordings, and some sacrifices are made. I'm always adapting and evolving the mic situation with my limited knowledge and equipment ($$$).

[@krossyourpath]
