Here's my first one!
I was having a rough start to my day. Then I wrote a couple of songs - so therapeutic!
Been waiting here so long
A singer without a song
Now you’re coming round the bend
Welcome home my friend
You’ve walked a long hard mile
Why don’t you rest awhile
We got plenty of time
To dance the dance, rhyme the rhyme
Still got your favorite chair
And a bottle we can share
Soon we will sing and play again
Welcome home my friend
Can’t wait to hear about where you been
Welcome home, my friend

The adjective that comes to mind while hearing this is "breezy". Very nice uke feeling to this one. How'd I miss this one?
@gubna Apr 2022
Pretty mellow tune. I dig it! Welcome home my friend!

Golden lyric of welcoming light and warmth. I can't always access this when I am feeling otherwise, free open access pick me up &/or mood changer to help me help those around me. IAM glad you did! Sometimes I resent the need in my own life tho' - haha!

Great way to kick off your FAWM 22. I was at a birthday party last weekend at which there were various musicians and we spent the entire afternoon and evening "Singing every song that drive knew". I felt just like your narrator in such great company.

This is so relaxing to listen to. I love it!
@dragondreams Mar 2022
This must have a been a lovely way to open your FAWM. It feels so laid back and "comfortable". The uke was a perfect choice for this one. :-)

I like the spare setting of the uke- the space gives this a very laid back feel while complementing the sweet sound of the ukulele.
@philkmills Feb 2022
Nice start. I find myself interpreting "home" in it as FAWM itself.
@cts Feb 2022
One-takes are always amazing to me. Your approach to songs are a welcome today. I've got some residual fallout from work-related issues yesterday. But hearing a calming, affirming tune from a guy with a uke makes it not bothersome as much. *cheers*

Great one take track. This makes me just want to sit in a big chair and chill out while listening to this song. Love the Welcome home my friend line of the song. It really just ties it all together so nicely.
@shutyatrap Feb 2022
Good to see your days gotten better.
This make me feel sentimental about the days when life was simpler and the world wasn't spinning too fast. Lovely stuff Chip. Welcome to FAWM 2022.
@kanttila Feb 2022
Nice fell good tune to start things off! Warm inviting lyrics.
@timfatchen Feb 2022
I'm all for one-takes! Country vibe to this, it'd work up a treat.
@darcistrutt Feb 2022
Relaxed feel, though 14 songs in 28 days always feels less than plenty of time. Love the welcome home!
@cindyrella Feb 2022
Chip! Do good to see you and hear this great song!
@coolparadiso Feb 2022
Good to hear you again! Nice lyric delivered very Chip and thats a good thing ! Always like your uke style.
