28 Dec 10 - 08:41 PM (#3062979) Subject: Lyr Req: Friends of Mine (Harvey Andrews) From: Jim Dixon Copied from another thread: Hi. Would it be possible to obtain the guitar chords to FRIENDS OF MINE? I would love to be able to play it. I have Harvey's CD but my musical ear is not that good as to be able to pick out the chords.FRIENDS OF MINE appeared on Harvey Andrews' album "Friends of Mine" (1973). YouTube has a video of FRIENDS OF MINE being performed by a band called Beggars Mantle: Click here. The recording seems contemporary to the album. If nobody else posts the lyrics, I will try to transcribe them in a day or two. |

In an old hotel in Germany, I'm thinking all the while of you, And I'm wishing I was on the plane back home right now! Everybody I meet they send their love, And they've been so good to me, And I'll never have the words to let them know just how! And they heard our music And they sang our songs And they gave us food and wine... And I've got to get you over here to meet these friends of mine! We travelled on down through Amsterdam Through the plains and the open lands To the lonely man who asked what news we had... And we sang to them and the open road And the city and the towns And we gave them all our views both good and bad, And they heard our music And they sang our songs And they gave us food and wine And I've got to get you over here to meet these friends of mine [Bridge] And they heard our music And they sang our songs And they gave us food and wine And I've got to get you over here to meet these friends of mine So here's another picture card And here's another word Just to tell you it's your loving keeps me sane.... And I know you'll cry when I hold you close and I know that I'll be glad And I'll never stay away from you this long again..... And I know you'll cry when I hold you close and I know that I'll be glad... And I'll never stay away from you this long again..... |

05 Jan 11 - 11:07 AM (#3067765) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Friends of Mine (Harvey Andrews) From: GUEST,Robbo OK folks, here is one for you. How about the chord sequence for 'Writer Of Songs'. Sounds simple enough but I can't work it out, (mind you, that isn't saying much)! I know from reading some of Harvey's comments over the years that this composition even surprised him at the time. |

I guess you are referring to 'Friends of Mine,' right? ====== Two years ago, somebody asked for the chords to Anna, My Love. Here's a video where you can see chords very clearly: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9LBbgYR4zE If you can't read chords of a neck yet, play the favorite ones (G,D,A,Bm etc) and you'll see. |
