[windsong]

I asked Mr. Ian McAllister if he would like to collaborate with me on this song. He said "sure". Here are the lyrics and cords. I used the 2 base notes of each bar cord counting 1and, then strum the cord counting 2 3 4, somethimes changing the strum pattern to 2 3and 4. Posted on the Members Recording, Mr. Ian took some liberty.
Would like to hear any comments you may have.

the cords change on each short sentence

I did take a few, (small) liberties with the lyrics, it's true
This is the recording I made, it's all a bit rough, first take, as I was sure that windsong would think that it was too poppy!
I really enjoyed doing this though. Great fun.
