rockin' blues...4/4 to 5/4 time change for interest
Artist picture
Alternative country contemporary christian pop/rock
When I was 22 a young lawyer took one of my songs and put it on the ‘B' side of his recording of Ave Maria. He invited me to watch the recording session at Criteria in Miami, Florida. Since that moment all I have ever wanted was to have my music recorded by professional musicians and sung by established artists. This truly is a monumental task as I do not perform live so I have recorded my own material as a means to get exposure and as a way for artists to be able to judge the “cover” worth of my songs. I am looking for a publishing deal. Contact Info: Jim Blachura C/O Stablesongs Phone: 336 995 0813 E Mail: saintlymanmusic@yahoo.com Saintly Man Music /ASCAP

Story behind the song
couple of ideas meshed...the time change along with the guitar riff went together well...no real story just some juxtaposition of musical ideas and phrases
Lyrics
Long Days and Nights / Blachura There’s gonna be some long days and nights ahead of us There’s gonna be some long days and nights ahead of us I know what you can do if you want to It’s not easy when life is slipping away With every ounce of strength in your body Sing out the blues and see if you save the day There’s gonna be some long days and nights ahead of us There’s gonna be some long days and nights ahead of us Storm clouds filling the sky; trouble on the horizon No one seems to know why but you can see the tears in their eyes (Their tear stained eyes). Long days and nights ahead of us People still sittin’ in the back of the bus Long days and nights ahead of us Wheels are turning on the college campus Long days and nights ahead of us They’re all shaking their heads in disgust Long days and nights ahead of us Soon we’ll be wishing it was them instead of us Something is creaking beneath the earth’s crust Sooner or later we all turn to dust Long days and nights ahead of us When the hammer comes down who’ll be left to trust Long days and nights ahead of us I can still hear her singing ‘Diamonds and Rust’ Long days and nights ahead of us Thought we could make the world safe for the just Long days and nights ahead of us Our plan for success turned out to be a bust Long days and nights ahead of us
