Taking My Time

By TurtwigX on March 8, 2026 11:59 pm

I'm choosing to take things light and breezy.
This was an exercise in harmonizing a melody with chords that have striking voicings. This was supposed to be submitted last week but I ran out of time and even today I submitted at the literal last second. Guess I really am taking my time!! I hope you enjoy

Lyrics:

I
I'm taking my time
I'm taking my sweet time

We
We're taking a break
We're taking a long break
Until tomorrow

Don't let it get to your head
It's only noise
Don't let it infiltrate your 'stead

Here
There's nothing to fear
You know you are safe here
You're at home

Always a solid plan. big_smile I'm loving this chord prog and melody!

Light and breezy indeed -  this is a very catchy and pleasant song to listen to. Love the groove, chords, and melody. Thanks for making this.

Very cool floating chord progressions. It sounds classy.

Worth the wait.
