Way to live

This started life with the twiddly guitar part and the lyrics fitted around that. The rougher section answers the more ethereal opening. I quite like the open sweep of the strings in the instrumental break, set against the lead (acoustic) guitar. (These were softer, more refined Sibelius strings compared to the rougher Cubase version I tend to score for..)

words and music by Martin Stirrup 2003

Way to live

Twiddle around B è A

In my life … I’ve found a way to live
In my life … I’ve found a way

B F#
Take a look around
A E
All the dreams you’ve found
But don’t ever get ground down by the weight
Take a look inside
Deep beneath your pride
Don’t pretend you’re wide-eyed to your fate


In my life … I’ve found a way to live
In my life … I’ve found a way
