Lyrics:

Let’s Make It Up As We Go Along May 2026

Key of E flat

I get the feeling we’ve been trying too hard
Thinkin’ too much, talkin’ too loud./ I’m
getting’ tired of this same old song.
Let’s make it up as we go along

I like to think that we could reach for the stars
come back to earth from Venus and Mars/ and
do what it takes for whatever goes wrong
and make it up as we go along,

chorus:

It ain’t over yet/ but it’s
comin’ on strong/ an’
if I had to bet we could still get along./ There’s a
whole lot of truth that’s
hard to deny/ and e-
-nough to keep us talkin’ well into the night

instrumental verse:

Let’as talk it over with a bottle of wine.
Maybe get two, get sloppy and blind/and
misbehave as if nothing is wrong/ an’
make it up as we go along
make it up as we go along
make it up as we go along

Comments by composer(s):

Went to the Schooner Tavern a couple weeks ago. A sax player was doing a fabulous! solo. I thought to myself “he’s making it up as he goes along”. I had to write that thought down!
This is just the bare bones of the song that I haven’t even learned yet. Still subject to refinement.
