11 Apr 01 - 10:45 PM (#438702) Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Jonathan Edwards From: Margaret V Hi, Hip. I play "Sometimes" but I can't guarantee I play it "right," just right per my ear... I move from G, to Am7, to G with a B in the bass and an added D on the high B string, back down to Am7, back down to G, and so on. To play the Am7 I don't add the G on the high E string, I just leave the G string open. Is that at all helpful? I'll be glad to associate the chord changes with particular words if you like. Margaret (descriptively challenged...) |

Seems like he may use a open G tuning, D G D G B D. Seems close if you start with open G then onto Sixth and Fifth string fretted on the second fret and the 2nd string fretted on the 1st fret and then move up two frets and then back down etc etc ...............there may be more to it but maybe that will give you a new way of looking at it |

And I think about a someone That I will never see again And now it's only me again. Sometimes, in the morning I think I hear a phrase Echo through the haze, And it's just beyond my vision It's something that she said one night Before we went to bed one night. Sometimes, in the morning When I go back to sleep Trying hard to keep, All my memories in motion Wishing she were here my love Whispering in my ear, my love. |

Only 3 chords- F = 000000, Gm7 = 220100 and F(A bass) = 440300. The chord names are from his first album songbook entitled "Jonathan Edwards", Castle Hill Publishing, Ltd. 1972 |

Played it years ago but forgot the details about the open tuning, fingering etc. it's like reuniting with an old friend. Does anyone have a finger style for this song they can share? |
