UPDATE: And from my young friend in New Zealand… So I messed up with Liam’s songs, sorry! He did indeed did write two different songs and was able to attach both of the documents to an email. Sorry about posting them wrong Liam :)
Here’s the first song he’s written. And way to go to on figuring out how to attach documents to email. I believe this was the first time he’s done this and it worked out perfectly – You did a great job! Without further ado, here’s his first song:

Verse 1
G D/F#
Looking around the library for a book to read
Em C
Suddenly I’m finding it hard to breathe
G D/F#
There’s a perfect smile a on a perfect face
Em C
What’s a perfect girl doing in this place

I wonder what sort of book she’s reading

I’d better not stare I don’t want her to see me
G D/F#
A girl like that’s way out of my league

But it’s not against the law for a boy to dream

Am G/B C Am G/B C D
If I close my eyes I can see just how happy you and me could be

We could live like this forever come on let’s run away
Am7 D G
I’ll be your Tarzan, and you’ll be my Jane
Verse 2
G D/F#
Sitting in the Library all by myself
Em C
Something catches my eye over there by the shelf
G D/F#
Messed up hair and rugged good looks
Em C
He seems like something straight out of a book
G D/F#
I’d better stop staring I don’t want to seem too keen
Em C
I’d better go back to my reading, see if he’ll take the lead
G D/F#
He’ll probably never go for a girl like me
Em C G/B
But it’s not against the law for a girl to dream
Prechorus
