I am a songwriter. I have had CFS-ME-Lyme for 17 years. Just got the Lyme diagnosis last year (I've been lurking and learning on this forum since then). It impacts my life a lot .. as you know .. so it impacts my writing too.
My 'CFS' songs deal with the reality of living with the condition but the overall message is usually one of hope or 'hang in there during hard times'.
You'll be able to tell how it is 'about CFS-Lyme' where others won't. Hope you enjoy it.

FAITH (ft Erin Simms) � 2007 by Dean Brantley Taylor and Regine Mary Watson
VERSE A strong start, a strong plan I was gonna be a strong woman No arrows, no enemies Could ever get to me It was a peaceful loving place Back in those fearless days
CHORUS Faith hold on, hold on to me Faith hold on, tightly Be my anchor in a dark and heavy sea Hold on, faith hold on to me
VERSE Compromise, weakening Feeling like my head is spinning More hurry, more worry Oh and all the waste Gone are all my better days All the easy ways
CHORUS
BRIDGE Hold on when I'm fading Hold on when I'm failing Hold on when I'm shaking When fate just keeps on taking, taking
CHORUS
END

I like it. It's not really my style of music, but I know good music when I hear it. I wrote a similar song. I haven't recorded the music, but here they are. The "simple" tabs and chord progression are included. It's a simple song.
