Joe, just to clarify, in Rise Up Singing notation, a dash means to repeat the previous chord, and the two slashes means to repeat the previous measure.

There's a great story to go with this song. When I visited Ewan and Peggy's Singer's Club in London in 1978, Ewan said that he had written the song during a series of transatlantic telephone calls, while they were courting. Makes it even more wonderful to listen to, I think.

Aloha,
Mark

Well, OK, Mark, the dash means to repeat the previous chord, which you ordinarily play for an entire measure...
But think again about the space between two slashes. I think each slash indicates a new line.
In other words, I think I'm right. [grin]
