Being a good songwriter means paying attention and sticking your hand out the window to catch the song on the way to someone else’s house!

– Nancy Griffith

In this chapter, we’ll continue our conversation about Lyric Writing. We’ll touch on Poetic Devices and Conversational  Tone; we’ll discuss the Building Blocks of Songwriting, and we’ll break songs down into their components so you can more readily understand how to assemble those components and in turn, build a song.  We’ll also discuss how important it is to love the language.
