It's a bit swingy, a bit bluesy and out of my competence level for coming up with the chords. I DON"T NEED THE WORDS, just the chords. Blessings, Barbara |

22 Oct 05 - 05:42 AM (#1588309) Subject: RE: Chord Req: McGarrigle sisters NACL From: Helen brioc, If you put NACL in the Lyrics & Knowledge Search box on the top right of this page you'll find a song by the McGarrigle sisters called: SODIUM CHLORIDE Just a little drop [atom] of chlorine, valence minus one Swimming through the sea, diggin' the scene, just havin' fun She's not worried about the shape or size of her outer shell-- it's fun to ionize Just a little atom of chlorine with an unfilled shell. etc I may have heard the song but I can't help with the chords. Sorry. Helen |

23 Oct 05 - 06:57 AM (#1588900) Subject: RE: Chord Req: McGarrigle sisters NACL From: Nick Don't know the song but listening to it from emusic which gives 30 seconds of it I'd reckon the chords are something like - SODIUM CHLORIDE [G]Just a little [D7]atom of chlorine, valence [Em]minus one[D] [G]Swimming through the [D7]sea, diggin' the scene, just [Em]havin' fun[G aug] [C]She's not worried about the [Em7/B]shape or size of her [Am]outer shell-- [A7]it's fun to ionize [G]Just a little atom of [D7]cl with an unfilled [G]shell. [D7] Written on a piano I would guess as it just works easily on there. There is another thread on this here which has slightly different chords and mentions a bridge. As I don't know what the bridge sounds like I can't help there. |

23 Oct 05 - 07:19 AM (#1588909) Subject: RE: Chord Req: McGarrigle sisters NACL From: Nick Perhaps a slight modification SODIUM CHLORIDE [G]Just a little [D7/F#]atom of chlorine, valence [Em]minus one[D/F#] [G]Swimming through the [D7/F#]sea, diggin' the scene, just [Em]havin' fun[G aug] [C]She's not worried about the [Em7/B]shape or size of her [Am]outer shell-- [A7]it's fun to ionize [G]Just a little atom of [D7]cl with an unfilled [G]shell. [D7] And the Am might be a C and the A7 might be a C#dim - can't quite decide. Closish though :) |

23 Oct 05 - 04:07 PM (#1589153) Subject: RE: Chord Req: McGarrigle sisters NACL From: Barbara Thanks Nick. I did a search, and didn't pull up that thread. From those chords, I may be able to figure out the bridge. (It modulates). Blessings, Barbara |

09 Mar 06 - 05:52 AM (#1689006) Subject: RE: Chord Req: McGarrigle sisters NACL From: Nick Finally sat down and hopefully worked this out properly as we've decided to sing it and I now reckon the chords are the following - G]Just a little [D7/A]atom of chlorine, valence [G/B]minus one[D7/C] [G]Swimming through the [D7/A]sea, diggin' the scene, just [G/B]havin' fun[Gaug/B] [C]She's not worried about the [G/B]shape or size of her [C/E]outer shell-- [C#dim]it's fun to ionize [G]Just a little atom of [D7/F#]cl with an unfilled [G]shell. [G7] And the middle bit - Then [F/G]unsuspecting chlorine felt a magnetic pull She looked down and her outside shell was full! [A7]Sodium cried "What a gas, be my bride, And [D]I'll change your [A7]name from chlo[D]rine to [A7]chlo[D7]ride!" Might be useful to someone. Any changes let us know |

09 Mar 06 - 03:41 PM (#1689463) Subject: RE: Chord Req: McGarrigle sisters NACL From: Barbara Thanks again, Nick. Is the second letter in the brackets the bass note, or is it the second half of the measure? Blessings, Barbara. |

09 Mar 06 - 08:58 PM (#1689664) Subject: RE: Chord Req: McGarrigle sisters NACL From: Anonny Mouse GUEST Kate: "McGarrigle Sisters? LOL Only one McGarrigle wrote NaCL and her name wasn't Anna." Yes--I am curious too...as the name of Kate McGarrigle (and Anna) carry a lot of weight in our household. As does one SON of Kate--Rufus-- & daughter, Martha. If...if it is Kate, can you be emailed thru Nonesuch? I would invite you to PM me, but as you're a guest--you probably can't. But if you can post again, a certain party close to me (my OBSESSED wife!) would love to chat. Or, if you can backchannel...whatever. Just a wee bit of a coincidence here. Of course, it just may be a joke of a coincidental post. ;>) |
