I wanna build a house
Far off in the woods
Down a little track
I wanna hear the birds
Rustle in the bush
Little stream out back
With apricots in summer
Berries in the spring
And tulips in the ground
Where somebody there loves me
Likes to make me happy
And keeps the fire on
Pre: Bm, Em, C, G
Wo-ah when the rain is beating down
Oo-oh I love that sound love that sound
Chorus C, G, C, G, D, G
All I really want
Is a place where I
Is a feeling of
A little place to call my own
A special place where I belong
V2: D, Am, C, G
I wanna build a house
Made of solid stone
To protect us both
From everything out there
From people who don’t care
To drag you down with them
And if you caught a cold
I would make you tea
With honey on the side
And bring it to your room
Turn the TV off
And open up the blinds
Good song. Might need a bit more “oomph!”
This has a nice country-style vibe.
Quite like the upbeat nature of it. Like the pre-chorus. Instrumental bridge needs to be more adventurous – possibly a fancy electric guitar solo.
Another definite for me. Lovely contemporary country ballad. Maybe brush shuffle drums, bass, mandolin, strings or violin.
Great song. Needs and intro and a lift at the chorus which can be achieved with the arrangement. Electric but not heavy.
Would definitely include this in my playlists. Nice one.
This is sumptuous and perfect. Very Joni and I’d be tempted to go just guitar and vocal as is.
