Hey all! I'm new here - I'm new at song-writing too. Ive been playing guitar for about a year now and have recently began song-writing and composing (with pratically no knowledge of scales and musical theory, but hey, what the hell, right?). Anyhoo, here's a wee song I churned out the other day. I have to warn you, it won't be the most "heaviest" thing you've ever read and it certainly isn't serious, poetic work, but I hope you enjoy it all the same!

SCOTTISH GIRL

I saw her shine her light yesterday
And asked if she'd come out to play
‘Cause her bonny beauty
had really taken it's toll on me

Eyes like moons
Hair of silk
Skin so gold
And wearing a kilt

She's my Scottish girl
Oh yeah
She's my Scottish girl
You'll find her roaming in the gloaming
Oh she's my, Scottish girl

I said “hey fair lasse, how've ye been?"
She said "why laddy, ain't you keen!"
But in the land of rain
There's no time to spare

And soon I found myself walking
With the girl so fair!

She's my Scottish girl
Oh yeah
She's my Scottish girl
You'll find her by the bonny banks of Clyde
Oh she's my, Scottish girl

Well by now you should know
This girl ain't for show
'Cause now she's mine
And boy she's so fine

She's my Scottish girl
Oh yeah
She's my Scottish girl
You'll find me down the Clyde
Wey her by my side
Oh yeah!
Scottish girl!

:D YEEEEEEEHA!!!

welcome guitar guru:)

it's true, it's not heavy or very serious, BUT I just love it 8)
it really leaves me smiling and therefore did justice with the assignment.
is your song something in the direction of maybe blink 182 ? at least the feeling I get from it. a fun song.

keep it up.

hmm, doesnt ring any blink bells with me. but then again im not a fan of blink 182 so I wouldnt know many of their songs. But i did used to be a big fan of other "punk" bands even though blink 182 is more of a punk pop or rock band.

just my feelings.
good luck! :D
