27 Nov 05 - 05:04 PM (#1614928) Subject: Chord Req: Chords: Morning Side of the Mountain From: Cruiser How about the chords to this song by Tommy Edwards first charted in 1951-52 and later charted as a reissue at #27 for 4 weeks. It debuted on the Top 40 on 3/23/59. The part I am having trouble with is the key change at the bridge: For love the rose... There was a girl, there was a boy If they had met they might have found a world of joy But she lived on the morning side of the mountain And he lived on the twilight side of the hill They never met, they never kissed And they will never know what happiness they missed For she lived on the morning side of the mountain And he lived on the twilight side of the hill For love's a rose that never grows Without the kiss of the morning dew And every Jack must have a Jill To know the thrill of a dream that comes true And you and I are just like they For all we know our love is just a kiss away But you are on the morning side of the mountain And I am on the twilight side of the hill For love's a rose that never grows Without the kiss of the morning dew And every Jack must have a Jill To know the thrill of a dream that comes true And you and I are just like they For all we know our love is just a kiss away But you are on the morning side of the mountain And I am on the twilight side of the hill Thanks, Cruiser (who has restarted playing his guitar after a 3-year hiatus because of work pressures and is also gathering the courage to pick up his fiddle again!). Work sure gets in the way of the good life, don't it? |

I believe he modulates (vocally--no chord) on the first line of the bridge to the key of F and to the key of G in the second line.
