Maybe shorten the picking between verses?
Naw, can't do that, already did it. The guitar work I had in really added some coolness to it, it was some good progressions but that's where I removed the bulk of time to get it down to 4:30.
You don't see modulations DOWN much but I've seen it in country music several times. Conway Twitty's "Lay You Down," I think he mods DOWN toward the end of the song. I think Johnny Cash might do it on "Big River." Well, both up and down.
