30 May 01 - 08:42 AM (#472934) Subject: Chords Add: CATCH ME IF YOU CAN From: ScottyG The correct title is CATCH ME IF YOU CAN, and Brakn is closest to getting the words "right." I haven't heard the song in probably 15 years, but I remember that Brendan Shine recorded it. You can find the song on at least one of his albums (The Brendan Shine Collection). Here's a website to check out. www.irishmusicmail.com/acatalog/irishmusicmail__Brendan_Shine_702.html I think the chords go something like this: C FI'm not at my piano, so the above chords are off the top of my head. I think they're pretty close, though. Let me know. ScottyG HTML line breaks and preformat commands added. --JoeClone, 3-May-03. |
