I Cover The Waterfront

[Chris]

As a change from playing 'Tenderly' the BOTM. I thought I would have a go at.....

"I Cover The Waterfront"

I took some liberties with the melody in places but hopefully it doesn't spoil things

No problem though I am sure Chris wouldn't have minded and they may have been useful for other members too

It's good of you to take the time to comment in such depth

Hi Chris,

I see you're sticking with the ballads. I've no problems with the liberties taken, you're in your comfort zone. Nice!

I've been taking a break from Tenderly as well, trying to sort out this little Lee Alen number but haven't got it sorted fully yet, so I can't post yet.

Hoping to get it under my fingers to play at a 90th Birthday party in a couple of weeks time.

Regards Al​

Some lovely old cars in the vid, Americans certainly knew how to build cars back then

Be a good tune to learn

You know Ian, I much prefer 'PTFE' tape, gaffer tape is too sticky and won't come off easy. I read the unedited post via email, Thanks for the comments.
I've no intention of giving up ballads just yet Jeanette, as I enjoy that style of playing. Alun, I kind of played around with the bridge a little on this one, That Lee Allan tune sound like a fun tune for a 90th, thanks for the comments.
