Time Stands Still

Hey Janek,

I've been listening to your tunes and have been picking a lot of things out that I like by ear and applying it to my instrument and transcribing. I'm having a bit of trouble though. I've been at it for a while, and I can't seem to figure out the changes to Time Stands Still. I've transcribed the melody and tried to make sense of it but the whole step bass line in the A section just confuses the harmony for me. Could you fill in the missing pieces and give me some insight as to what those changes are? Maybe you could also give me a little insight on how you came up with this tune and what inspired you/the writing process you went through from start to finsih for this one. Thanks for all your help, and all the music.

James
 
yeah, I'm not there's too much more to say about that song other than what's in the podcast. other than it's really hard to play, and I have to work on it all the time.

Easy,

Janek
