From: [email protected] (Martin McCarthy) Meet On The Ledge - Fairport Convention A F#m* A Em* A F#m Em Em7 We used to say that, come the day, we'd all be making songs G D G D A Or finding better words. These ideas never lasted long. F#m* A Em* A F#m Em Em7 The way is up along the road. The air is growing thin. G D G D A Too many friends who tried were blown off this mountain with the wind. A Em Meet on the ledge; we're gonna meet on the ledge. G D When the time is up I'm gonna see all my friends. A Em Meet on the ledge; we're gonna meet on the ledge. G D If you really mean it, it all comes round again. A F#m* A Em* A F#m Em Em7 Now I see I'm all alone. But that's the only way to be. G D G D A You'll have your chance again; then you can do the work for me. Meet on...etc. NB: the F#m and Em marked with a '*' - I'm almost sure that I used to play a Bm for these two chords, but the F#m and Em sound better just now. (I have a guitar with me, but not the record). You might like to stick Bm in there if it sounds better for you.
