------------------------------------------------------------------- Artist - Ryan Downing *********************** Song - Vendia *************** Tabbed By - Ayreon77 ********************** ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tuning = Standard This song is about a fictional steam ship I wrote a story about. The story inspired this song. The name `Vendia` means `seller, giver. The ship embarked on a journey from England in 1837 and crashed into rocks within a few thousand feet from its destination in Cape Cod. That`s the story. There is no chorus in this song; it has a middle 8 though; inspired by `Abraham, Martin, and John` by Dion DiMucci.
The music and lyrics were Written by a 13 year old guy By the name of Ryan Downing. This kid is one talented guy and he has a bright future. This is a great Song.
