Hey Chris...

Couple of thoughts for you...

From its place upon the shelve [SHELF]

He said, "This guitar is special,
It's a gift from high above,
For when I play a melody
It's like a chorus of speaking doves

Not sure the "doves" thing works here. Maybe,

He said, "This guitar is special,
It's a gift from the LORD
He makes my fingers fly across the neck
With every melody and chord

just an idea..

V2 lines 1 & 2 sound awkward to me as does line 6 because it's backwards...i think MY SOUL WAS FILLED WITH AWE is more conversational of how someone would say that IMHO.

Just a few thoughts for ya when tweaking! [Linked Image]
