First one for FAWM 2019. Sticking to my original aim of doing acoustic tracks with a positive feel in a major key (which is very different to most of the stuff i write so rather a challenge). I used a new app 'Music Memos' which brought in a new writing process, not sure if i will continue to use it but it sounds alright for a quick beat and bass.

V1
Open your eyes see the beautiful world on your doorstep
There’s more than need if we just shared out you will see
Open your eyes see the beautiful world we can make it
Working together as one then you will see
Chorus
Love your neighbour the world is your friend
We can all live together as one
Peace and harmony that is all anyone needs
Love your neighbour the world is your friend
We can all live together as one
Spread the word and world will soon follow you
V2
The time is right for us now to take positive action
They work for us not the other way round dont you see
The time is right for us now stand up and be counted
Working together as one then you will see
Chorus
Love your neighbour the world is your friend
We can all live together as one
Peace and harmony that is all anyone needs
Love your neighbour the world is your friend
We can all live together as one
Spread the word and world will soon follow you
