Help me write lyrics, 10 points!!?

Question

I have to write a song for my music in school and I have the chords and stuff but I'm not great with lyric writing! I'm good with the musical element but not the words so I'd really appreciate it if you could maybe help write some lyrics for me?!

I know it'll be hard to make them exact as you don't know the song how it is so far but it's in regular 4/4 rhythm (4 beats in a bar) and uses the chord sequence Am C F F - just basic but it does the job. I'll try my best to adapt any lyrics to it!

The song is quite folk-ish, I want it to be very Mumford and sons-ish. At the moment I'm just writing for guitar but will add in percussion, banjos, brass instruments, the lot at a later stage.

Any general musical advice would be brilliant too!

Many thanks in advance.

Answer 1

I hope this helps!



As we stood tall, and I took you by the hand

I looked at you, and knew I'm one blessed man

We're strong and independent, lookin for a home

I'm so glad we are together, never more to roam

Answer 2

I have no idea what you just said. post the instrumental & the flow of words on Youtube then put the link on Y!A so we can get a feel of the song. I can only write lyrics by interpreting what the music itself is trying to say.

Answer 3

im fantastic at song writing add details of what the song is about and i could help
