Title: Character Zero

This was mostly right, except for a couple notes.
I substituted a 5h2 and it sounds about right.

Try it and see if it sounds a little better.

Riff 1  I was taught a month ago
Riff 2  To bide my time and take it slow
Riff 1  But then I learned just yesterday
Riff 2  To rush and never waste the day
Riff 1  Now I'm convinced the whole day long
Riff 2  That all I learn is always wrong
Riff 1  And things are true that I forget
Riff 2  Well no one taught that to me yet
