Above All Others

Song By: Thomas Melson Styles Southern Rock, country-rock Remaster strength Normal Remaster style Boost [Intro | instrumental | rolling bluesy guitar riff | brushed drums building in] [Verse 1 | gritty baritone | close mic | slightly raspy | soft organ behind] I've chased that highway through the pouring rain, Watched the morning rise from a midnight train, But every road I've wandered, every town I've known, Only taught this restless heart right where it belongs. [Pre Chorus | brushed snare lifting | organ swells | tension building] No silver in the mountains, no diamond in the sea, Could ever shine as brightly as you shine for me. [Chorus | full band | stacked harmonies | organ surging | wide and open] Oh, I adore you, more than words can say, More than the sun loves breaking through the gray. I'll treasure you forever, whatever may befall, Darlin', you're my one and only, above all others, above them all. [Verse 2 | baritone lead | same close warmth | slide guitar fills entering] You're the porch light burning when the night comes down, The sweetest sound of heaven in this hard old town. If fortune laid its riches right here at my feet, I'd trade it all just to hold you close to me. [Pre Chorus | drums tightening | organ rising again | harmonies threading in] No crown upon my head, no mansion standing tall, Could mean as much as hearing you answer when I call. [Chorus | full band | stacked harmonies | organ surging | wide and open] Oh, I adore you, more than words can say, More than the sun loves breaking through the gray. I'll treasure you forever, whatever may befall, Darlin', you're my one and only, above all others, above them all. [Bridge | vocal and organ only | lean and quiet | guitars swelling on the last two lines] Let the thunder roll, let that north wind blow, I'll stand beside you anywhere we go. When my hands grow tired and my hair turns gray, I'll love you even more than I do today. [Guitar break | extended blues lead | triple guitar interplay | slide bends | organ holding beneath] [Chorus | biggest build | louder harmonies | full organ | rim shots on every beat] Oh, I adore you, with every breath I take, You're the truest promise this heart will ever make. I'll treasure you forever, through the rise and fall, Darlin', you're my one and only, above all others, above them all. [Outro | guitars winding down | lone lead guitar figure | slow fade] Above all others, when the shadows fall, Yes above them all, Above them all. (above all others) I'll treasure you forever... (forever...) Above all others, above all. [end]
