meet on the ledge by richard thompson
played live with a capo on 2nd fret so really in key of A ( first chord E )
D Em
we used to say
D D/G Em
that come the day
D D/C# Bm Bm7 Am Am7
we’d all be making songs
C G
or finding better words
C G D
these ideas never lasted long
D Em
the way is up
D D/G Em
along the road
D D/C# Bm Bm7 Am Am7
the air is growing thin
C G
too many friends who tried
C G D
were blown off this mountain with the wind
chorus
D Am
meet on the ledge , we’re gonna meet on the ledge
C G
when my time is up i’m gonna see all my friends
D Am
meet on the ledge , we’re gonna meet on the ledge
C G
if you really mean it , it all comes round again .
D Em
yet now i see
D D/G Em
i’m all alone
D D/C# Bm Bm7 Am Am7
but that’s the only way to be
C G
you’ll have your chance again
C G D
then you can do the work for me
repeat chorus
