Hi.
I have been playing guitar for some time now. I have some basic knowledge of music theory(scales, chord constructions, progressions and stuff). However, I have never applied anything towards analysis of songs and so my whatever little knowledge of theory does not reflect in my playing. It would be great if you fellas could just enlighten me with your analyses of songs. I have decided to begin with really simple ones.

Could you please analyse "500 miles" by "the proclaimers"?

Why don't you try analysing the piece yourself, post your findings here and then if people want to discuss it they can.

Nice to be able to go back to trust and friendship!!!!!!!!!

 It's a mixed up sensation this being alive
Oh! it wears a man down into the ground
It's the strangest elation
I can't describe it
Oh it leaves a man weary
It makes a man frown..............................Chris Simpson ( "Mixed Up Sensations" 1975 Martin's Cafe )

Just as I thought. Somebody ELSE has to do the work.
