Backstory:

Born out of the cacophony of a bustling bank in the heart of London, the members of Timely Deposit met in the most unusual of circumstances. Lead singer and guitarist, Roland “Ro” Green and bassist Stewart “Stew” Penny were both bank clerks, tired of their monotonous 9-to-5 grind, dreaming of a life filled with music. When drummer, Maggie “Mag” Note, a banker herself, overheard them humming the same tune while working, she proposed starting a band as a creative escape from their daily routine. Keyboard player, Eddie “Ed” Ledger, a regular customer and music school graduate, overheard their conversation and offered his expertise, thus completing the band, Timely Deposit.

Their initial jams in the bank’s break room drew the attention of their colleagues and patrons, leading to a surprise invitation to perform at the bank’s annual gala. Their electrifying performance made them an overnight sensation within the banking community, and soon their unique blend of music began to attract fans from beyond their immediate circles. Timely Deposit hence transformed from a group of bankers performing after work gigs into a full-fledged band, without ever giving up their day jobs.

Song Title:

“Chasing Checks”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
[G] I’m just a simple man, [D] working for the bank, [Em]
[C] Counting other people’s money, [G] with my heart in a clank.
[G] Clock keeps ticking, [D] like a metronome in my head, [Em]
[C] All I’m doing is chasing checks, [G] and the dream in my bed.

(Chorus)
[D] Chasing checks, [Em] and counting days,
[C] Lost in transactions, [G] in a financial maze.
[D] Chasing checks, [Em] with a song in my heart,
[C] Hoping for a break, [G] a chance to restart.

(Verse 2)
[G] Got a pocket full of dreams, [D] but a wallet so thin, [Em]
[C] Every coin I make, [G] to the bank, it goes in.
[G] Living for the music, [D] in this monetary haze, [Em]
[C] Still I’m just chasing checks, [G] in an endless chase.

(Chorus)
[D] Chasing checks, [Em] yearning for the light,
[C] Singing in the shadows, [G] every single night.
[D] Chasing checks, [Em] but dreaming of the stage,
[C] Every note I play, [G] is a turn of the page.

(Outro)
[D] One day I’ll stop, [Em] chasing these checks,
[C] I’ll be living my dream, [G] no more complex.
[D] No more chasing, [Em] Just living free,
[C] This is the dream, [G] of Timely Deposit, you see.
