Lyrics
Maybe It’s the Melody
Vocals and lyrics by Mary McGrath
3/5/17-Copyright all rights reserved

Though you’re here
Something terrible
Seems so wrong
Perhaps it’s the melody
Or maybe it’s the song

You’ve been my music
Since the day that we met
Couldn’t wait to play you
And yet

Perhaps it’s the meter
That just ain’t right
Or is it the signature
That’s part of the plight

Diminished 7ths
Are just not my style
Augmented 9ths?
Perhaps in awhile

We’ll be in synch
If our tempos aren’t right
We have ‘til the morning
And all of the night


Maybe it’s the melody
Or is it the song?
Something’s not right
But wrong

Great lyrics and vocals. The strings are very subtle but add so much to the piece. The piano part is perfect it would have been nice to have less of it at the begining and have it come back in the middle as a solo. The guitar is a bit prominent but I guess that is now locked into the mix.

I dig this. Your vocals compliment the style and rhythm here perfectly. To my ears, it sounds good enough to deliver to jazz stations.

This caught my ears right from the beginning. Witty lyrics too. Joyce

Thank you, everyone for your kind words… I had a good time writing this one and for those who are serious musicians, you understand the nuances of the lyrics.
