Sound in Light is third song written for my new Album called Seeing Sound. I wrote the guitar piece when I was around 21 years old and it was originally played without a capo. So it sounds a little different with a capo on the third fret in standard tuning in the key of G Minor. I wrote it on a 6 sting acoustic guitar with a cutaway, so playing it on a 12 string without a cutaway is a little tricky and more simplified. One day I hope to acquire a nice 12 string cutaway although they seem to be pretty rare and hard to find a good one at a good price. I purchased my Fender CD-100-12 for 300 brand new, which is unbelievable in Australia. It was 650 reduced to 500 and then I offered to take some 360 photos and make a virtual tour of the music shop in Byron Bay to further the discount. Only around 10 years ago an instrument of this brand and caliber would have cost thousands. Pretty stoked about that really.
If you wake up in the dark.
Change pathways to the start.
Don’t ever let the light glow.
Dimmer in your heart.
We feel it from the start.
The light shines through the heart.
Don’t ever feel you’re worthless.
Just always bring your smile.
And if you wonder who you are.
Just listen to your heart.
Don’t ever let the ego.
Trick you into harm.
It’s written in the stars.
Don’t forget who you are.
And never let the light glow.
Flicker in your heart.
It’s written in the stars.
Don’t forget who you are.
And never let the light glow.
Dimmer in your heart.
