It is the exact opposite of writing a blog or writing a computer program.  In the latter case, you sit down with an intention in mind.  With song writing, I try to make my mind as blank as possible.  Think about nothing.  Strum a few chords, and see what it makes you feel.  Not what you want to feel, what you really feel.  Sometimes, something happens, and many times not.<\/p>\n<p>I wrote this song after I wrote &#8220;Cry Myself to Sleep&#8221;.  Like I said before, I wasn&#8217;t trying to write this song. It just happened.  It is a very very simple song with a basic beat and only two chords.  But now that Tom has taken hold of it, it has really come together.  I really like the guitar licks.<\/p>\n<!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('audio');<\/script><![endif]-->\n<audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-147-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/chengrob.com\/songs\/nevercry.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/chengrob.com\/songs\/nevercry.mp3\">https:\/\/chengrob.com\/songs\/nevercry.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n<blockquote>\n<pre>E                        A      E\nDried up tears hide your pretty eyes \n\nE                        A         E\nyou're feeling something you can't disguise\n\nE                           A     E\nYou don't love him, but you can't let go \n\nE                        A     E\nAll these feelings we'll never know      \n\n\n\nB\nGirl, you're just a mystery \n\nE               A        E\nCause you never come cry to me \n\nE                A    E\nThe coolest lady I'll ever see \n\n\nWho you are is bottled inside \nJust because you can't decide      \nGirl, you got to give it up \nAll you got is tough enough \n\n\nGirl, you're just a mystery \nCause you never come cry to me \nThe coolest lady i'll ever see \n\n\nHoney,you know i love you so \nBut it's almost time to let you go \nOpen up your heart and let me in \nThat's when our life begins \n\n\nGirl, you're just a mystery \nCause you never come cry to me \nThe coolest lady I'll ever see<\/pre>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I really can&#8217;t describe how I write a song.
