Last verse, I discovered when I sang along with my transcription, there are pickup notes between the fourth and fifth lines that could belong to either line, and if I use them, I can get in both "sounding" and "last", though "last" covers two notes, so I could use "final" instead, if that doesn't sound too final.
Yet sometimes in the pause From one verse to the next, We can almost hear soft laughter there once more And the echo of his voice is sounding In the last chord -- We know he's singing on the other shore.
Neat story, Gareth, and thanks.
Snuffy, I'd love for this to be a part of that anniversary commemoration. Seems like we lost a lot of good people in the last month or so.
