Thread Name: Chord Req: I Followed Her into the West (T Paxton)
Subject: RE: Chord Req: Tom Paxton I Followed Her Into The West
Hi Joe
I'll do 1 or 2 verses

I followed her into the west
Where I had never been before
And never did she see me as
I stood there helpless by the door

Each day my resolution rose
And every day an oath I swore
But each night ended as the rest
I could not knock upon her door

And shaved + pressed + cleaned + dressed
I'd start upon the quest once more
But each night ended as the rest
I could not knock upon her door

I paced my room + cursed myself
I swore that I would go no more
When as the sun was sinking low
I heard a knocking at my door

And standing there with food for me
Standing there my hearts delight
Who said I thought you must be ill
I missed you at my door tonight

Now you must rest + you must sleep
Your resolution to restore
And when these dishes you return
Be sure to knock upon my door

OK I did the lot, good ttyping practice.Normally Tom uses the old
CFG chord progression but it doesn't seem to work with this one so any tips would be gratefully received
Thanks Again
Graham
