Genre:
Warlike Carpenter Ant’s music is an eclectic fusion of Indie Rock and Psychedelic Folk.

Title:
“The Lumberjack’s Ballad”

Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
Am Em
In the heart of the timber, echo the saw,
G D
A melody struck by the carpenter’s claw,
Am Em
Strumming the life, of the age-old pine,
G D
A tale to tell, in the moonshine.

(Chorus)
C G
Oh, the Lumberjack’s ballad, sings of the night,
D Am
A whisper in the wind, beneath the starlight,
C G
A symphony of nature, a heartbeat drum,
D Am
In the wild, where the carpenter ants hum.

(Verse 2)
Am Em
The forest’s secrets, the carpenter knows,
G D
In every grain, a story grows,
Am Em
He chisels the echoes, of the woodland’s hum,
G D
A song that dances, when the daytime’s done.

(Chorus)
C G
Oh, the Lumberjack’s ballad, echoes in the breeze,
D Am
A serenade of solitude, whispered through the trees,
C G
It’s a warlike rhythm, a resilient song,
D Am
Shared by ants and men, all night long.
