All accoustic true story. Just my Taylor 814 and Hofner bass
Story behind the song
I take a walk for about 3 miles when I dont walk the golf course.
I have been doing that over 5 years. I pass a house everyday two blocks from my house and say hello to a girl that is out in her yard doing some kind of landscaping etc. We never formally met but say hello.. Well on 9/12/2025 I got very hot and dizzy... this girl was in her yard and given my situation I asked her if she could drive me home as I didnt think I could make it.. She thankfully took me home and gave me some water and we finally met formally in not the best way.. So I am very thankful to Chris for helping me that day... And I believe it was just being hot and not eating... but of course this song came to me two days later very quickly as asking for a ride is not something I would do easily.
Lyrics
The Girl I finally Met
Words/Music Tony DeLecce 9/15/2025
I take a walk every once in a while CHORDS: D,F#m, Em, A
I go by your house and you always smile
and I wave and I say hello G,A, D Walk down
and I go on my Way G, A, D
Verse2
You sit on your porch like you always do
reading a book or the daily news
you always smile and you say hello
and you go about your day
Chorus
Doing the garden and digging the weeds G, A, D, Bm
It doesnt matter at all
hanging your laundry or pruning your trees
Spring Summer and Fall
Bridge
Winter comes and it all goes away G, A, F#Major, Bm
your in your house safe and warm
I still walk by every once in awhile
and I can see your smile

You answered quickly and said anytime
