keyvin posted:I recently had an extremely spiritual experience that encouraged me to get artistic. I've never written a song before, and I only know basic rhythm guitar. I wanted to write a song for my fiance to tell her how much I love her and would like some feedback. Also try this, because the minor IV chord is so nice (the Fm in your case). C G Am E F(full barre) Fm(full barre) C G I think that with the standard chords you are using, that Fm really added some character to the progression. If you can't do the full barre chords yet, it's ok (you can still use the 4 string version); but coming from open E, it will almost always sound better to do to a full F chord than the partial version. As for the lyrics, don't worry about them. You'll look back either way and laugh, but it's good to try different things that come to mind (like rhyming blue and too) but realize that they might be stereotypical for a while as your brain adjusts to how your thoughts should be placed within certain confines for rhyming and timing with the harmony. If the melody is not going well while playing, then it means that you are either not comfortable with the melody or the chords. Both have to be really solid on their own to even try combining them. Someone also mentioned a capo; trying different keys is good to find your voice's range. Also try tuning down a half step - Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb makes a lot of songs easier for the male voice.
