Thread Name: Lyr/Chords Req: Man from Colemore
Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Man from Colemore
Was feeling melancholic and was revisiting some old music and came across the Bothy Band. I'm not Irish but a priest friend of mine who studied in Dublin and who passionately loves the Irish spirit, put me onto them. Believe me, if you knew him you'd know why he loved them so much - Irish music, when it's happy it's really happy, when it's sad it's really sad. He is such a tortured soul but so full of compassion and wisdom, both which seem to emanate from this kind of music especially when played by the Bothy Band. This song just touches my soul so deeply. I am trying to work out the chords (guitar)and have gotten somewhere but many are eluding me. Has anyone managed to do so? Would love to hear from you.
