Goodness me, memories. I learnt I Know Where I'm Going in Kildonan on the Island of Arran nearly 40 years ago from a very attractive young lady called Caroline Ash whose parents ran the hotel there and whose brother used to use the adjacent barn to record music- I wonder whatever happened to her? Nostalgia eh? I sang it a few weeks ago for the first time in years.

Both Sides the Tweed by Dick Gaughan is another which is also enjoyably indefinite. From memory it's written in Am but ends on D. A friend play with likes to throw that switch of chords into a few things we do - like Star of the County Down in Em where he'll fling in the odd A at the end of a verse for a bit of a change.

Universal Soldier is another which ends on an Am chord if played in G if my memory serves me
