Many people replied asking for the chords since the news message<br/> didn't get through. Here it is, anyway.<br/> I post things into the news with VI, but I made the Chords text back home<br/> on my PC, and I think something went wrong when I tried to insert my<br/> previously-made text file into the vi editor. Any ideas? I used ":e" and I<br/> was sure it worked, but.... Please send me any help you've got for any<br/> further posting from me....<br/> <br/> -------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/> <br/> AT THE HARBOUR<br/> --------------<br/> <br/> By Dunford/Thatcher<br/> >From the album Ashes Are Burning by Renaissance (1973)<br/> <br/> Play with Capo on second fret. The chords listed hear are transposed one<br/> tone backward (Am should actually be Bm when the Capo is applied)<br/> All verses have the same sequence of chords. The two chorus have another <br/> sequence. There is a piano intro and ending, ommitted here.<br/> The verses are played in a fast arpeggio.
