I love the ending.. brilliant! π
Are you saying you worked out the chords in the end, they sound great!
The melody doesn't seem too demanding, easy to follow, so I sang along a bit reading your lyrics there.. I'd be happy to give this a go, but I'd sure have to read them, there are soooo many and my little head is always full with trying to learn other songs... But it's gone on my list to investigate.. π
Great job, my friend, love it! π
Yeah I played around with C,G,D and A minor chords but couldn't get the A minor part to fit even tho it usually works to use Am,C G for folk songs. In the end this C,G,C,G,C,G,C,D,G progression worked with the capo on the 6th fret so I just went with that after a morning of trying to find something to accompany the lyrics.
The recording took several takes and still isn't perfect,I feel I can do it better now after seeing the flaws in the recording and spending another hour or so ironing them out.
I've only ever seen Andy Irvine play it on his Bouzouki with a harmonica accompaniment but yeah, good luck figuring out what chords he's using for it :).
Id love to see how you approach the song and what your rendition sounds like, its still some of the best lyrical work I have found in a folk song, rivaling the best I've heard from Dylan and from many a traditional folk song.
