The Sweetest Chords

Good morning folks, on this cold, cold day -- at least for this area. Yesterday was an interesting day for me musically because I worked on a slow song which is something I never do. I've always had trouble writing slow tunes although none of my tunes are considered FAST by any means, they are not slow. This one started out at about 70BPM and I eventually moved it up to 75BPM. Now 70 may not be slow in the realm of slow tunes but for me it's pretty slow. The thing is, I had to start writing this tune. I was playing with different chords yesterday and stumbled across something I hadn't done before and damn it sounded so fuckin sweet. All I got was the first chord and although it took me a while to find the exact notes of the subsequent notes, inside my head at least, I heard it loud and clear. Once I found them, it was too too good. I remember talking to Jerry one time over the phone about some chord, I can't remember what it was -- something from Steely Dan -- that was so sweet about this chord it damn near made me cum. I might have even chosen this chord over some women I've been with in my life. No disrespect but the chord had the same effect on me playing it over and over again, while in the past with some women, I was ready to walk away after that first and last time. Yeah and to all you women reading this don't be pissed cause you've all been there once or twice yourselves. But when you find that ONE, SO SO SWEET, DAMN!!!! Okay enough of that, back to the Muzic. So now I found the other chords I needed but it took a while for me to actually find them cause these were chords I wasn't even familiar with. I know chords pretty well but considering I was never formally trained musically there some things I just don't know off the top of my head. For this one I had to open up the Chord Dictionary -- spent about 30 minutes in that and still couldn't find it. Okay now what, it bugs the hell out of me not to know what this chord was so I did what I always do when I'm stuck. I dial those numbers ad wait for Jerry to answer. 9 out of 10 times I can throw it his way and he can tell me right off the bat what I'm working with. So I dialed but nothing. I think the Brotha is still on the "secret squirrel" shit. He does this from time to time. Like when I was trying to get him to give up that Fender Rhodes and he disappeared, then one day out of the clear blue he calls and tells me to come and pick it up -- no charge, no sweat, you don't owe me anything "Lil cuz" just come and get it. I got myself down there so fast, hung out with him, got that sucka back to the studio and wow. What a thing of beauty. Okay so I digressed again, sorry. So now back to these chords, I still don't know what the hell they are which means I have to write them down. If I can put keys with a name I can remember but if I can't, I can only remember for so long. I think they must be an inversion of some 13 chord and I think that I reversed the right and left hand in the inversion as well. All I know is that they're all minors. Now, all this work and I still don't have a bridge nor a good chorus. I had a chorus so I thought but after a few listens the chords in the chorus just lost me so I have to go back to the drawing board for the chorus. It's amazing how some songs come to you and write themselves and others come easily but it takes a lot of work to get them out. So when I finish this, it's back to the keyboard to figure this thing out, or maybe I can figure the chorus out with the bass firs then move back to the keyboard. Anyway, I gots work to do y'all. Right on for coming by. See ya.
