Anyone out there know the chords and lyrics to the above song as sung by James Keelaghan?

Also, he sings a good version of a Ewan MacColl song, My Old Man, got the lyrics for that one but if anyone has the chords for that one also that'd be great.

Cheers me dears

Hi, Bagger - I split off your request for Keelaghan's tab for MacColl's "My Old Man." You'll find it here (click). Requesting two songs in one thread can get confusing. Better to resurrect old threads, or to start a new thread for each song.

There's a recording of "You Know Me" on MySpage here (click). Anybody have time to transcribe it?

(G) You know me, (C) I'm the (D)one, (G) who's always got something to (C add 2)say.

That C add 2 chord is a regular C chord with the d string played open.

(G) I'll talk the ear, off (C) any(D)one, (G)I love a good turn of (D)phrase.

You say hello, (G) I can't reply, (C) words turn to pebbles on my (D)tongue.

I can't describe, the (G) way I feel (C) a word from (Am7) you and I'm struck (D) dumb.

You know me I'm the one who likes a clear line of sight.
To see from where the morning rises, to where the sun sinks at night.
You arrive upon the scene, landscapes turn to portraits and I find,
I can't take my eyes off you, except for you I might as well go blind.

Touch and smell, hearing speaking, seeing is believing guess that's true
All my senses straining and relentless, reaching out to swallow.

You know me I'm the one who can't leave anything to chance.
I's are dotted, t's are crossed, every bit if paper in my hands.
You step up my best laid plans gone like so much chaff upon the wind.
Touched by you they don't seem much, you're the place I sense I should begin.

You know me I'm the one.
