Chords
I worked this out by ear from the 1971 BBC Sessions, and 1971 Massey Hall. The
other chords for this song were wrong so I thought I'd do this.
A very simple song, which follows the same pattern all the way through:
[Intro] D A G / D A D
[Verse 1]
D A G D When the winter rains come pouring down, on that new home of mine D A D Will you think of me, and wonder if I'm fine? D A G D Will your restless heart come back to mine, on a Journey through the Past D A D Will I still be in your eyes, and on your mind?
[Break] D A G / D A D
[Verse 2]
D A G D Now I'm going back to Canada, on a Journey through the Past D A D And I won't be back til' February comes D A G D I will stay with you if you'll stay with me, said the fiddler to the drum D A D And we'll keep good time on a Journey through the Past
[Break] D A G / D A D
[Verse 3]
D A G D When the winter rains come pouring down, on that new home of mine D A D Will I still be in your eyes, and on your mind? D A D Will I still be in your eyes, and on your mind?
Neil plays this on piano, and there are a couple of licks he does in here such as:
- for the "G" in the into he is hitting a D and G repeatedly, then drop the G to
an F#, so: D G / D F# (this is right above middle C)
- on the "D" for the intro and parts in the verses, he is hitting a D triad, so: D
F# A, then moving the top two notes up to G and B, then back down
ex. D F# A / D G B / D F# A (this is below middle C)
