Original Songs
An Archive of Songs written by Matt Carter
From age 17 until the present I have written both words and music. Here is a semi chronological list of
songs. The links will take you to the lyrics page. I have decided to post only the lyrics and not the chords or music
but maybe someday I'd like to attach an audio to each one.
