Story Behind The Song

Originally intended to be background music for a "we are doomed" type movie/TV show/ (It's on the web site under "Em7 Background".) Then, it was intended to morph into more of a "song" with lyrics. (Lyrics are forthcoming.) In the interim, it has turned into an instrumental. At that point the title changed to "5 Seconds". You know how as you go through life and look back on things, and sometimes you come to forks in the proverbial road, and in a matter of a few heartbeats the course of your life can change based upon the decisions that you make? Well, there you have it. Sometimes 5 seconds can make all the difference.

Song Description

Version #3: I figured that since I had an acoustic guitar laying around I might as well use it. So that is version #3. (See Version #1 for more info on the basic song.)
