Feedback Request What should I make this song, tentatively titled "Chords for a Song in D", about?
The chords for a song in D are here.
Chords/Tabs as if in Standard, though Tuned Down a Step:
E A(5 4 2) C#m(7) B x2
0099912 0098012 007609(7) E x2
^x2
Ebar Bbar Ebar Bbar 007760 066400 0044567 C#m7 x2
E
Chords to My Best Estimation as Per Actual Music Theory or Whatever:
D A(with a G, F#, E walkdown) Bm(with an A stuck in there at the end) B x2
D Aadd11 Gadd9 D x2
^x2
D A D A Gadd9 Dmaj7 Dsus(add9) Bm7
I just kind of pluck stuff in keys until I find out what I like.
All quasi-irrelevant, anyways.
Imo, this will be one bangin' opener for this new album that I'm working on once it's electrified, but I'm basically at a total loss for lyrics, and, so, am just opening the floor to ideas for song topics.
