Yesterday I heard Paul Pearson sing a song called "Shoe's" which he said had been written by Ron Border, anyone any idea how I can contact Ron to 1. Ask him if I can use the song and 2. Get the lyrics and tune.

Cheers

Key of G Capo 5th DADGC#E Tuning
D
Seaside town winters day English skies are always grey
             G                                        D
Are you thinking of your home? So far away from home

Ice cold wind cuts right through the coat the boss man sold to you
Are you thinking of your home? So far away from home
                   A                                 G      A                               G
CHORUS: Little red shoes on the sand little red shoes on the shore
                   A                                              G    A                                  G
                  You're strangers in this strange land nobody knows who you are

Shells like razors drawing blood as your hands turn blue in the silt and the mud
Are you thinking of your home? So far away from home

Sunrise until darkness falls as you labour for your bread and board
Are you thinking of your home? So far away from home

CHORUS:
                Bm                                                 D
BRIDGE: Who's to blame and who will pay who'll count the lives that were lost that day
                           Bm                                                                     Em                      A
                To the gangsters greed and the crashing waves as the tide rushed in on Morecambe bay

A better life a brighter day when the cruel sea washed all your dreams away
Were you thinking of your home? So far away from home

CHORUS: Little red shoes on the sand little red shoes on the shore
                   Nobody knows your name nobody knows who you were

Thanks Susi for this, fortunately I had already found Ron's website where the lyrics and tuning could be found but I appreciate your help anyway

Thanks
