All You Need


Much more of a rock song with a message about what’s important in family life. The guitar makes use of the pitch bend wheel, giving it a unique sound.

This one made less use of the keyboard’s onboard sounds and more of me trying to play!

It is meant to be played loud.









Lyrics


All You Need

Verse 1

I get up at dawn and I work through to five

when I get home I'm barely alive

There's things to do, oh what a slog

sort out the kids go walk the dog

I am never free I just want more time


Verse 2

I drive a ford but I'd rather drive a rolls

I'd sell my wife and I'd even sell my soul

My car might go, but it's a piece of trash

I can't upgrade 'cause I don't have the cash

so I just want more I just want more cash


Chorus 1

And the gods up above look down on me

And said as far as we can see

You have all you want you have all you need

Just take a look around

Verse 3

Up there a simple thing for you to say

you haven't lived through my kind of day

home from work straight to the shops

we wander round, it never stops

Where's the fun in that I just want more fun


Chorus 2

And the gods up above look down on me

And said as far as we can see

You have all you want you have all you need

Just take a look around


Verse 4

So I look around and what do I see

My wife and children looking at me

They're my family

They mean so much to me

I'd rather spend my time with them

My car may be old, it's a little gem

This is what I want

this is all I need


Chorus 3

And the gods up above look down on me

And said it's good to know that you now see

You have all you want you have all you need

Just take a look around


Chorus 3

Repeat
