Guitar Jinx

I'd to write this post much before, I mean, in September when I actually broke my jinx of not buying a guitar for long. I always had dreamt of playing an instrument right from my childhood days. I can remember, I'd gone so much crazy behind Tuttori (Sorry, I can't remember right now the English translation of it - it's the instrument that Big B had played in the movie Sholay) that I persuaded my mom then to buy that in our trip to local fair. I did try learning to play Tuttori for some time. After few weeks, my Tuttori fell into water and started producing unpleasant tones whenever I played that which was very obvious. Somehow, I lost interest in Tuttori later. During college days, flute seemed to interest me; But, I couldn't go to flute classes either. When I slowly started developing inclination towards Western Music, "Guitar Jinx" started happening.  

Ahaa Moment. Finally, after five years from the origin of "Guitar Jinx", I broke it in this Septmember when I bought my acourstic guitar. Thanks to videos in youtube.com, I've learnt few scales, chords as well! As they say, teaching through a Guru is always the best way to learn things, at least the basics. I think I should join classes, after all, I've a handful of guitar coaching centres in the vicinity of our house. 

What say?

Fix You!

This is one of my all-time favorite lyrics':

When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
COULD IT BE WORSE?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face
And I

Tears stream down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face
And I

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
