Here we look at the tune, "There Is Always One More Time", a beautifully written ballad by Doc Pomus, recorded by B.B. King, Johnny Adams, Harry Connick, Jr. and others.
In this lesson we learn this tune in the key of Cmaj., in a 'chordal arpeggio' style. Actually, you've heard this style of playing in countless songs.
Over the next weeks we will look at this song in different styles, but for now, this is a great way to become familiar with the tunes melody and learn how to play it in a not so complex way.
The lesson explains itself...try it!
One important thing here to remember is metronome!!!!
Practice with you metronome and try to play your chordal arpeggios in perfect timing and with a consistent touch!
Enjoy!
Any help you need, be in touch!

Loop 0:40 Run-Through of There Is Always One More Time
If your whole life somehow
Wasn't much 'til now
And you've almost lost
Your will to live
No matter what you've been through
Long as there's breath in you
There is always one more time
And if your dreams go bad
Every one that you've had
That don't mean that some dreams
Can't come true
'Cause it's funny about dreams
As strange as it seems
There is always one more time
Oh turnin' corners
Is only a state of mind
Keeping your eyes closed
Is worse than being blind
If there's a heart out there
Looking for someone to share
I don't care if it's been
Turned down time and time again
And if we meet one day
Please don't walk away
'Cause there is always one more time
There is always one more time
