Jeez Louise, I pulled 24 songs off the net yesterday. I thought I'd better give some back. Here's a few I've had around here. Please enjoy, I'll be posting some more soon. The Reach by Dan Fogelburg ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- D D- A E ... D D- A E E It's Maine and it's Autumn F#m B The Birches have just begun turning E It's life and it's dying F#m B The lobsterman's boats come returning C#m A With the catch of the day in their holds E F#m B And the young boys cold and complaining A The fog meets the beaches And out on the Reach it is raining. D D- A E ... D D- A E -- E It's father and son F#m B It's the way it's been done since the old days E It's hauling by hand ten miles out from the land F#m B Where their chow waits C#m A And the days are all lonley and long E F#m B And the seas grow so stormy and strong, but... E The Reach will sing welcome as homeward they hurry along -- CHORUS: E And the morning will blow away A As the waves crash and fall E And The Reach like a siren sings F#m A As she beckons and calls E As the coastline recedes from view A And the seas swell and grow E I will take from The Reach F#m A All the she has to teach B E To the depths of my soul -- E The wind brings a chill F#m B There's a frost on the sill in the morning E It creeps through the door F#m B And out on the shore, ice is forming C#m A Soon the Northers will bluster and blow E F#m B And the woods will be whitened with snowfall E And The Reach will lie frozen For the lost and unchosen to row. CHORUS: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note: D- I don't know the name of this chord, but it's just a D with your finger off the E string. ________________________________________________________________ ___ Phil Bearce at HP San Jose - Components (/__) /_ . /) internet: [email protected] / / )_(__(_ - "Look out for that root." -James Taylor ________________________________________________________________
