about

Written and performed by Chris.
Extra songwriting credit to John Higney.

Today, Bandcamp Friday: Feb 4:

“During this Bandcamp Friday, all funds raised for my new song 'Lost Love in Semitones' will be donated:

50% to the Shepherds of Good Hope, 50% to Cornerstone Housing for Women. Both located here in Ottawa.

As if we haven't been through enough. This past week has been extra difficult, and continues to be, for many here in my hometown.

And music heals. So how about some new stuff? 'Lost Love in Semitones', is a song I was playing regularly in live sets, pre-pandemic.

My friend John Higney played some great tenor guitar parts during those live performances. Eventually I'd love to re-record this to capture that magic he had going on.

And he also suggested I change a lyric, so he gets songwriting credit as well.

"It's a hardened heart I'm leaning on".

Keep safe and try to stay positive. Special shout out to my Ottawa friends and small business owners to hang in there. We've all got your back.”

lyrics

LYRICS:

Blasting bass of Mike Watt’s vintage grooves
It’s the only record she’s got with D Boon
And her harmonies lit fire to the room.

I got chills when she spoke in semitones
With a last bit of whiskey and smoke in my headphones
Then sometime in the deep night I went home.

I’ll be carving my way through the dawn
That lone voice stuck in my head lingers on
Cause it’s too late to regret what we’ve done.

Sunrise and no sleep, lost boy scout
But you’ve got all next week to figure this out

Her denim jacket fits great for borrowed threads
Her love songs carry me home to my bed
And it’s Greetings to the New Brunette.

It’s a hardened heart I’m leaning on.
