Pre-chorus (G major-C^9) But don’t be to quick to give into the gloom, You can still see people over Zoom, hello. Turn off the TV, put down the phone, and tune into imagination of your own. Chorus (A major-G major-E major-G major A major-G major-E major-G major) Where no news is bad news, at least not for me, ‘Cause my news is news that I wanna see. Verse (D major-G major-A major) x 2 You called me up and said you were down, I think we all wear a frown sometimes. Just try to do what you love, you’re not alone, just don’t give up, heave ho. Pre-chorus (G major-C^9) Turn off the TV, put down the phone, and tune into imagination of your own. Chorus (A major-G major-E major-G major A major-G major-E major-G major) Where no news is bad news, at least not for me, ‘Cause my news is news that I wanna see. No news is bad news, not like on TV ‘Cause I do what I like and being trapped I never felt more free . . . End (A major G major x2) D major No being trapped I never felt Being trapped I felt Being trapped I never felt more free.

I’m Fine, a song written and performed by Kathleen Werth, 10
I’m Fine Kathleen Werth, 10 I utilized Bandlab (an app with drum beats and mixing options) to put the layering of my song together and form music. You can listen to it at Soundcloud, and read the lyrics below. https://soundcloud.com/user-28081890/im-fine-by-kathleen-werth-age-10-written-and-performed-in-may-2020 I’m Fine Kathleen Werth, 10 Never thought it’d come to this. Hearts beat louder than a gunshot. It’s all too much to bear, can’t take it. It’s all too much to weigh my shoulders with. But I’m fine, I’m fine, I keep it on the inside. I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine. I’m scared, I’m scared. I’m scared to keep it on the inside. I’m scared, I’m scared, I’m scared. Never thought it comes to this. This is all too much to take. My chest is pounding, I can’t take a rest. Never know. But I’m fine, I’m fine. I’m fine to keep it on the inside. I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine. I’m scared, I’m scared, I’m scared. You know it’s true. Maybe you feel it too. You know it’s true. I’m not the only one! ‘Cause I’m fine, I’m fine. I’m fine to keep it on the inside. I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine. But I’m scared, I’m scared. I’m scared to keep it on the inside. I’m scared, I’m scared, I’m scared.
