Have song lyrics but no melody? You've written the words, but now you're wondering how to turn them into a song. Where do you begin?

In this episode, I'll walk you through three simple songwriting steps to help you find a melody for your lyrics. You'll learn how to discover the natural rhythm of your words, find a melody in one line, and build out from there.

You don't need to figure out the entire song at once — or know a lot of music theory to get started. Sometimes, all you need is one line, a little curiosity, and a willingness to play.

In this episode, you'll learn how to:

  • Find the natural rhythm and pulse in your lyrics.

  • Explore the rise and fall of a single line to discover a melody.

  • Build on that musical idea using your voice, an instrument, or improvisation.

Have lyrics waiting for their music? Grab your notebook, try these steps, and see where your words take you.
