Subject: Jenny Bryce, by James Keelaghan From: Clinton Hammond Date: 03 May 01 - 12:08 PM This is one for for you stage 2ers out there... Now I'm pertty certain that the song is in open G (DGDGBD) and mostly built around this pattern x05030 x02010 x04030... Can anyone get more specific with chord structures than this? |
Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Jenny Bryce, by James Keelagh From: Clinton Hammond Date: 03 May 01 - 02:14 PM Well, that's reassuring so far! ;-) |
Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Jenny Bryce, by James Keelagh From: Clinton Hammond Date: 04 May 01 - 10:51 AM Thanks Wysi... but it doesn't look like I'm gonna get an answer... Won't be the first time I've WAY stumped Mudcat with contemporary Canadian folk music... |

Subject: Lyr Add: JENNY BRYCE (James Keelaghan) From: Susan A-R Date: 05 May 01 - 02:15 PM I learned this one from a radio show tape, and never knew who wrote it. Here are lyrics anyway. I hope this is what you are after. As I recall, the chord structure is pretty straightforward. Sorry about lack of line breaks, spelling, etc. but my turn on the computer is just about over. Susan A-R JENNY BRYCE (James Keelaghan)
This morning I was lost in thought as up the hill I wandered,
Some said they were of tinker stock, baptized by flowing water.
From wooded glen to heathered moor with Jenny I went roaming.
One day says she, "Oh Willie, I weary of the road."
And one day says she, "Oh Willie, a child for us I bear."
Six tortured hours she lingered and never once complained.
This morn as I was lost in thought, 'twas down the hill I ambled, |

Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Jenny Bryce, by James Keelagh From: Susan A-R Date: 10 May 01 - 11:10 PM Sweetie, I'm assuming that if you title the post as you did that you also want lyrics. |

Subject: RE: Chords Req: Jenny Bryce (James Keelaghan) From: GUEST,Larry Meyer Date: 20 Mar 04 - 08:59 AM I've been looking for some clues to the chords of James Keelaghan's Jenny Brice and found this thread at Mudcat. Clinton Hammond's guess that its open G (DGDGBD) seemed a good starting point. So I retuned my Martin and played around for a while and came up with what I think might be the intro (not the finger picked part, but the fast rhythm strum with what sounds like hammer-ons and pull-offs.) So try this sequence x05035, x04035, x02010, x04030 and see if its somewhere there for you. Maybe if we put our heads together we'll get a tab for this great tune. |
Subject: RE: Chords Req: Jenny Bryce (James Keelaghan) From: GUEST,John Sutton Date: 18 Feb 08 - 12:14 PM Tabs or diagram would be great for us less talented folk who enjoy playing these great songs just for fun. My ear is only so good at picking out the details, especially in open tuning. I am getting there, but I wouldn't want to play this one in a fake fashion, it just sounds to good by Garnet and James!!! If anyone can post it would be great |
