Here is yet another revision. at this point, the full progression is (relative to the capo on two) C G Am F-G Dm G Am F-G. If you listen to the recording, you'll quickly hear that though I wrote it, I don't necessarily know how to play it just yet. Hopefully after a few more runs through, I'll gain some kind of competency at it. For now, I consider that chord progression and ajoining melody to be, as they say, in the can.

The question, therefor, is what to do from that? My initial plan was to have the lyrics in the verses follow that same progression and melody, but at this point, with all it's revisions, I'm starting to think it would function better as a stand alone interlude. I still think that the vocal melodies should be similar to this, but I think I should treat it as it's own unique part. Start it from the same notes and let it take on it's own life.
