    'In My Car' came about as one of my first solo experiments in the studio. It has a strong melodic feel, an upbeat tempo and a general 'feel good' vibe about it. I play and sing all the parts myself. Enjoy )

    Story Behind the Song
    The song was written in a very short amount of time. I had recorded all the music, basically to test out my local studio's new facilities and never planned to 'release' it to the public. The lyrics are a kind of kooky story about girl/boy driving down the west coast with the top down, very Beach Boys. I would of liked to include more vocal harmony but we were pushed for time.

    Lyrics
    In My Car

    N.B. This is the lead sheet I took into the studio with me, so includes basic chords too

    E A5 E
    Today I’m gonna set everything in motion
    A5 E
    Today I’m taking her for a ride
    A5 E D
    And she’s gonna be with me, she’s gonna be by my side

    Driving down the west side coastline
    Letting the wind take her hair
    She smiles at me and says, baby you’re my world
    B
    She’s turning up the radio dial
    And starts to sing for a while
    C#m A B
    I said, don’t worry baby, now you’re in my car

    We finished school this summer
    So we’re heading out to find us a bay
    And we’ll be there until we catch that wave

    We’ve been around a lot of places
    Always finding something to do
    And when the days are gone we’ll drive out under the moon

    Turning up the radio dial
    Sit and listen for awhile
    And we’ll feel alright, when we’re in my car

    E B
    She’s gonna make it right, cos we’re going out tonight
    A Aaug
    I’m not gonna let her get away, not gonna wait another day
    C#m B
    Tonight I’m gonna let it all come out
    E C#m
    She’s gonna realise, when she looks into my eyes
    D A B
    She’s the one that sets my soul on fire

    (SOLO OVER VERSE CHORDS)

    Yesterday I set everything in motion
    Yesterday we went for a ride
    And now she’s with me, always by my side

    Turning up the radio dial
    Sit and listen for awhile
    And we feel alright, when we’re in my car
