So I was talking to a friend online, telling her about my new sweet Mitchell 12 string! Not knowing what to play, I asked her, and she told me just to make one up.... So i did. No lyrics yet, and its pretty simple but I like it. This recording was the first take, and I might add another guitar part to it.. I dunno, tell me what you think!

It's the one on top called "Courtney's Song"

enjoy! :lol:

The one on top has singing on it now (im no singer however)

Here are the lyrics

we walk down to the beach one more time,
remembering good memories before we say goodbye,
before we go our seperate ways, before we cry,
off to college, off to live our lives

But we wont forget,eachother, oh no
oh no

we go around this town one last day,
forgetting our worries our fears and our dismay
sitting on the sand sharing laughs into the night
we try to make it last before we have to go away

But we wont forget eachother, oh no
oh no

we promise to remember, the happy days of our lives

The sun comes up on the brand new day
and though we're sad we know that we will be okay
because we will remember eachother everyday

I think maybe your B string (or rather one of them LOL) is slightly out of tune. But the 12 string sounds good and the playing is descent too. Keep it up!

hmmm I only have 30 strings on 5 guitars in total. Time to increase the string-to-guitar-ratio maybe?

...only thing I know how to do is to keep on keepin' on...

Song sounded great, lyrics were touching :cry: :lol:

I have been itching to get a 12 string but I am saving for a car and then a Gibson SG, so I think it will be awhile! :lol:

Oh yeah, just a little constructive criticism:
some of your guitar playing on Imagine sounded a little stuttery, but most of it was awesome.

Yesterday sounded awesome! 8)
