Subject: Chord Req: A Sailor's Life (Solas) From: EllenV Date: 12 Jan 13 - 11:23 PM Can anyone help me work out the chords for this song? Thanks a lot in advance (I haven't transcribed any chords for a long time, and that part of my brain's gotten a bit rusty). A Sailor's Life - Solas |

Subject: RE: Chord Req: A Sailor's Life (Solas) From: Stanron Date: 13 Jan 13 - 04:46 AM This is what I dredged from memory. A different tempo, different lyrics and different feel. The layout is to ensure that the chords appear above the correct words. Cheers. D A Sailors life is a C merry D life. They rob young girls of their hearts de- A light Leaving them be- D hind to weep and G mourn. How D can I C live now my G William is D gone. |

Subject: RE: Chord Req: A Sailor's Life (Solas) From: Stanron Date: 14 Jan 13 - 05:34 PM Your welcome. As to the G, that should be halfway through the word 'now' instead of on 'William'. I liked the D to C to G change with one slow beat on each chord, but you should play it how you like it. Cheers. |

Subject: RE: Chord Req: A Sailor's Life (Solas) From: Richard Bridge Date: 14 Jan 13 - 05:47 PM There's a funny run up sort of hammer on from that G to the C in your key. I do it in A. THere's also a little riff that fiddles with the major 7th and a sus4 at the end of some lines. Not sure if they are in that version to which I have not listened. |

The song works very well with the chords that Stanron gave, but I do think there is a bit of that fun stuff going on in the recording... just can't figure out exactly what (and here I'm showing my ignorance). |
