I am also looking for a better site for the chords because although the chords seem right, when I 'hear' the song in my head the chords seems to be in different places in some of the lines (if that makes any sense to you).

If I get a chance tonight I'll check it out. Or maybe I'll just play it and figure the timing. Roger in Baltimore |

15 Apr 05 - 02:10 PM (#1462323) Subject: RE: Chord Req: Someday Soon Ian and Sylvia From: Chris in Wheaton Great song, but not too easy to sing - and it was recently posted on the fantastic folk music blog, Keep the Coffee Coming. My I&S favorites have always been 4 strong winds, of course, and Wild Geese. At the song circle saturday, I'm planning to do Ian's version of Eileen Oge, and give a 2 sentence lecture on Percy French. Two sentences are all they will listen to between songs. Hope Ian's new cd is good - and will have more Tyson songs to sing. Chris |

16 Apr 05 - 01:32 PM (#1463033) Subject: RE: Chord Req: Someday Soon Ian and Sylvia From: CStrong Isn't this a Steven Stills composition? He was involved with Collins at the time (she's the Judy Blue Eyes). |

18 Apr 05 - 07:24 AM (#1464181) Subject: RE: Chord Req: Someday Soon Ian and Sylvia From: Roger in Baltimore Nope, CStrong, Definitely Ian Tyson. Judy did include this songs on one of her albums. However, its first appearance was on Ian and Sylvia's Northern Journey. That album predates Stephan Stills and Judy Collins' reported relationship by several years. You are right, however, that Judy is generally considered the Judy of "Suite Judy Blue Eyes." Roger in Baltimore |

There's almost always more information (or, at least, more interesting information) that way. A Google search would not necessarily have yielded the other three references you just provided ~ thanks for proving my point! |

Several years back, at the Manitou Opera House (Manitoba) Ian introduced this tune with the line, "Here's the song that paid for the ranch ... " {royalties of course; Collins' version was a big hit} Keep reviving old threads. Keep well Keep safe Keep warm & keep playing Someday soon Dennis |

18 Feb 21 - 04:14 AM (#4093640) Subject: RE: Chord Req: Someday Soon Ian and Sylvia From: GUEST,henryp At New York’s City Winery on July 16 — a night billed as the Carnero Vaquero album release show — Tyson’s first words were, “The old cowboy returns to Gotham City — it sounds like a song to me.” He introduced the fourth song of his set by saying “This is a real old song. I wrote it just east of here — five or six blocks away. Where’s MacDougal Street? This song has been very good to me — it’s paid a lot of alimony.” Then he broke into his classic “Someday Soon,” which Ian & Sylvia recorded in 1964 and was covered by many artists, including Judy Collins, the Kingston Trio, and Suzy Bogguss. No Depression Gary Stoller POSTED ON SEPTEMBER 7, 2015 The song is based on his relationship with Sylvia, who came from Chatham, Ontario. Sylvia's father, Mr Fricker, worked in the white goods department of the Eaton's store, just around the corner from the record racks holding copies of Ian and Sylvia's albums. Every Friday night he went to a bar with my Uncle Peter. Ian was seven years older than Sylvia, and Uncle Peter said that all Mr Fricker talked about was the "pseudo-cowboy" who had "run off" with his daughter. |
