"Forest of God" - Guitar Trio plus Vocals

[Noah Fraioli]

Hello,

This song actually began as two separate pieces. I decided to combine them (primarily to save time :P) because they had the same tempo, time signature and harmonic keys. This is my single longest song to date, so I look forward to your feedback on the piece.

Lyrics:

Take my hand. Come with me, and I'll show you the night. Cle-ver tongues, quick-er brains, (beat beat) the creatures delight in the wind and the trees and the snow and the earth... the forest of God

Stay with me. Look a-bout and you'll break through the dawn. Feel the cold and you'll know (beat beat) how hun-gry they are. Tooth and nail, the e-merge to con-sume and sur-vive... the hatred and pain

It is late. Won't you rest so that you'll see the sun? I need you to be strong (beat) Your heart will bleed to-night. Just be still. Close your eyes and you'll know who I am... My love, won't you stay?

EDIT 3/12/12: I included a softer version called version 8. I think that's my best MIDI of it so far.
