Does anyone have the chords for the John Tams evocative version of The Manchester Rambler? The lyrics were kindly posted by The Borchester Echo in July 06 but the chord sequence is much different to the original so if anyone has them I would be most appreciative.

Thanks.
Swaleman.

John plays this in G but with a capo on the fifth fret so he actually plays D shapes. Most of it is just D, G, A7 & Em in various combinations. If you watch the video on YouTube you can work most of it out. He also tends to use Gmaj7 in the verse as a quick G rather than playing the full chord. There is a Bm used once and an F# plus one other chord that I am still trying to fathom used in the chorus. Will post gain if and when I sort it out. Great version of a timeless song.
