Gordon Lightfoot

[ELVIS]

I had a vivid dream the other night about learning and playing one of my favorite Gordon Lightfoot songs with the intention of singing it to my sweetheart, whom I had recently hurt, WITH MY STUPIDITY...:(

I dream about her often, but this is the first time anything like this has ever happened to me...

BUT I CANNOT REMEMBER WHAT SONG IT WAS!!!

I've always loved his music but never learned a single song...

Anyway, instead of racking my brain, I figure i'll post my favorite Gordon Lightfoot songs and hopefully I will stumble across the song of my dream...

[High Life Man]

Gitchigoome.

[FORD]

I really hope it wasn't the "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" if you're serious about this chick. Might send the wrong signals :biggrin:

And I always interpreted "Sundown" as being about adultery, so that might not be a good one either.

[ELVIS]

No, I hear ya...:D

It might have been If You Could read My Mind, but I really dont think so...

[chefcraig]

This could take you some time, but here is a list of all of Gordo's recorded tunes. By clicking on each tune, it reveals a page with the song's lyrics and some pretty vague chords.

Gordon Lightfoot's Lyrics and Chords (http://www.lightfoot.ca/lyrics.htm)

Like I said, it's a load of work. Perhaps one of these tunes might remind you of what you are looking for. Best of luck.

[ELVIS]

Thankya verymuch...

[Panamark]

I already gave ya that E !

You be trippin boy !! :)

I think we have all had those dreams where you
wake up with a riff in your head, but decide on
a coffee or cigarette instead of pickin up the axe.

I reckon you should lay "Sexy thing" on her by
hot chocolate, play it nekkid with your geetar
covering your undercarriage !

If she likes it, its only a matter of removing the guitar then ! :biggrin:
