Artist picture
Singer-songwriter, arranger and producer: acoustic contemporary folk but ranging into rock/blues/country/jazz/humour...all very eclectic, I'm afraid!
Martin Stirrup Singer/songwriter An old folkie who got back into it... These days I sing and play guitar(s) and other stringed instruments, then score and orchestrate where appropriate. My taste becomes increasingly eclectic ranging from finger-picked folk through country to soft rock mixed in with a few more alternative and eccentric numbers, including the odd novelty foxtrot...

Story behind the song
This complex treatise on chaos theory started life on guitar and the lyrics just grew of their own volition... I stand by the opening couplet!
Lyrics
2x (E9 A11as intro) E9 A11 If you look too hard you just may not see E9 Bm7 What’s going on in the periphery E9 A11 You need to open up and absorb it all Gº B7 To see the way the dice will fall You may not find what you’re looking for Or reach an unexpected pass Don’t get resigned to what’s gone before This change will never be your last Em B7 Em This change will never be your last Am Emm If beauty’s what you’re searching for B Em You’ll find it all around Am Emm And if you manage to retain that awe Aº B The feeling’s more profound You find the desert in a grain of sand An ocean in a water drop Fractal repetition helps you understand That there’s no bottom, there’s no top That there’s no bottom, there’s no top Vvcv as instrumental Repeat chorus & last verse Fade out as extended intro featuring Jon Garvey on Saxophone and Steve Franks on Guitar
