Pain – George Blamey-Steeden

When it comes to classical guitar I like to keep my hand in but often other things get in the way. Not this time though. I made a new classical guitar adaptation of my song ‘Pain’ from my ‘Dream Rescuer’ album.

Press the play button to listen to the new adapted rendition. It’s only 1.51 minutes long. I hope you enjoy;

If you want to make a comparison with the original, here is that original – which is available to buy and download at BANDCAMP ;

Here’s the ‘Created Guitar Tab’/’Score-sheet’ for any musician that would like to learn/play along:

If it helps get the flavour of the adaption here’s the original lyric;

The nights are getting longer
Your days are drawing in
You lost the dice roll this time
In a game you could never win

Guilt is loves shadow yet we never forget
From the corner of my eye your silhouette
It was your time and my tears feel like rain
I traded my grief to end all your pain

The game is now over
I’m glad that we played
The wounded heart full of sorrow
Nothing betrayed

Now its official
Now its no dream
Always remember nothing is as it seems
It was your time
This short songs for you
To help ease this
Pain

I think every album is allowed one simple acoustic number, so long as the lyric has a true meaning. This song called ‘Pain’ from my ‘Dream Rescuer’ album has a lyric that is personal to me and has such a true meaning. Written it just a few moments on a day I’ll always remember. It sat in the locker for three years until it decided it was ready to be aired. I hope you like it.

The nights are getting longer

Your days are drawing in

You lost the dice roll this time

In a game you could never win

Guilt is loves shadow yet we never forget

From the corner of my eye your silhouette

It was your time and my tears feel like rain

I traded my grief to end all your pain

The game is now over

I’m glad that we played

The wounded heart full of sorrow

Nothing betrayed

Now its official

Now it’s no dream

Always remember nothing is as it seems

It was your time

This short songs for you

To help ease this

Pain
