Hey, Paul!  Thanks for sharing this with us.  Feels like a ZZ Topp kinda thing.  Cool.  Love the energy.  Dig the title.

Thank you Brent! Yep totally ZZ Top! I did 3 versions gradually steering away from the referance track… But “sounds like” are often shoe ins for the right sync deal
Version 2 up today and 3 (a more country version) up tomorrow
Thanks again

Tail Light Rhapsody (Slide Mix)

Written by Paul deMarco

Tail Light Rhapsody

Clare E Steffen & Paul deMarco © 2018



Verse 1

I am here to tell my story... Some will listen, some won’t care

Some will talk right over me... As my words drift in the air



But if you want to have compassion... Or relate as I tell the tale

Of my crazy life adventure... Take a minute, sit here while I wail



Verse 2

The words they don’t come easy... No they never did for me

That’s probably why she left me... I got stuck in first gear



She wanted to go forward... I guess I didn’t really care

It’s the road of good intentions... And I just stood right there



Chorus

I should have chased those tail lights

I should have pleaded come back to me

‘Cause my baby she done left me

That’s my story, tail light rhapsody



Verse 3

I could see her tail light dimly... As she drove away that night

Why didn’t I stop and get her back... I could of put up a fight



But fightin’ ain’t my strong point... I’m a lover can’t you see

But love is just a word... When she ain’t got no love for me



Chorus... Solo … Chorus
