Help: From Where I Stand

It isn't trad music, but I'm looking for the Judy Collins album from the early 1980s called, I think, just "Judy."

It had a lovely song on it that I'd love to learn, "From Where I Stand."

From where I stand,
Our bridges all are burning
From where I stand,
Our ships are going down
And it looks like stormy weather

????? and that's all I can remember. But I'd love to get a copy of the tape and/or words and chords. Anyone out there have it?

I know -- that's when I had it, too. What lovely songs, but the album didn't seem to generate much interest. That one she does,
"I ran around with the same little crowd,
The usual laughs, not often but loud
And in the world that I knew
I didn't know about you ....

Yummy. I'd love to learn a couple of songs from that, now that I've started singing again. Are there places to get out-of-print albums like there are to get out-of-print books, I wonder?
