Guitar chords with lyrics

THE BALLAD OF THE YARMOUTH CASTLE
		   Gordon Lightfoot (C) 1969

  Transcribed by Gord Broom , 1994. (Version 1.0)

NOTES:

 This song appeared originally on the "Sunday Concert" live album.
 Capo at the second fret and fingerpick. At the end of the first and
 third lines of each verse, use a G/Gsus4/G riff. At the end of the
 second and fourth lines, use an Am/Asus4/Am/Asus2/Am riff. I've
 transcribed it from the "Original Lightfoot" boxed set. Thanks to
 Matthew Fifer for sending me the lyrics
 off the "Sunday Concert Plus" CD which corrected a couple of my "hear-os."
