That Fixes Everything

This one is interesting… I first wrote the lyrics and built the song in November 2015… 10+ years ago and one year into this whole music adventure. In 2018, 2+ years later when I gathered the songs I had and packaged them into albums, this song never made the cut. When I look at and listen to the Garageband file, I see there is no drum track and I followed no ‘measures’ guidance. I hadn’t figured those things out yet. And, the harmonizing was sloppy.

So, ‘today’, I redid the effort to see if I could get it right. I changed a few chords for colour and improved a few words. This is the result.

G                      C                      G                      C
I love the sunlight in your hair
G                      C                      G                      C
I love the lightning in your eyes
G                      C9
Love you sleeping, love you singing
G                      Am7                D                     D
Come and sit here under sunny skies

I love the contours of your face
I love the knowing in your smile
Love your wisdom, love your soul
Please come and sit with me a while

Am Am D7 G Em
You are magic to my hungry soul
Am Bm7 C D Dsus 4
Hold my hand. That fixes everything

I would love to have a great big dog
I would love to go and see your Mom
I’ll make dinner. I’ll bring flowers
Please always kiss me slow and long

I love to hear you laugh real loud
I love it when you think I’m wise
I can be stupid, can be jackass
I am humbled ‘cause you realize

I am magic for your hungry soul
Hold my face. That fixes everything

Instrumental Verse

Some things just seem meant to be
Two people like a pair of gloves
I am left hand, you are right hand
Not must use without the other’s love

We are magic. Two happy souls
We say I love you. That fixes everything.
