Does anyone have the chords to this Rab Noakes song? I've got the song from the Lines CD of Allan Taylor. I've got Allan Taylor's songbook but this song, because someone else has wrote it I suspect, is not in the book.

Cheers

Just trying again, surely someone out there must know the chords to this tribute to Alex Campbell?


Gently does it, for a change
I used to, think you were just like a mountain range
Your big boots stomped where small men feared to read
I could hardly believe what I just read

Chorus
And a few years ago you were on this road so long
I hear their building a highway, to take you home

They say you can't travel anymore
But you've got the key to a new front door
And, don't you know cause' you once, said it all
When you stand so high you've got so far to fall

Not everyone looks you eye to eye
Cause you get difficult, dangerous, I'm damned if I'll lie
But we all pay the price
When they place your ante high


Cheers

Drop D an option

D                        A
Gently does it, for a change
                   D                                          G
I used to, think you were just like a mountain range
          D                                                               A               
Your big boots stomped where small men feared to read
               D                               G
I could hardly believe what I just read

Chorus
            A                                        D                         G
And a few years ago you were on this road so long
                     A                                                      D
I hear their building a highway, to take you home

Many thanks JohnMC,

I know these are very simple, but I'm bloody useless, admittedly, when it comes to picking the chords out.
