LYRICS:

I know that we're gonna be together you and me For more than a rhyme or two your time belongs to me Rowing back down my river Chasing my tail to the sea Rowing back down my river Trying my best to be me

Watching your crazy ways and all the lazy days Digging you more and more the more I see your face Rowing back down my river Trying my best to be free Rowing back down my river Chasing my tail to the sea

Watching the simple things to help me go along Loving the notes you bring to help me sing my song Rowing back down my river Trying my best to be me Rowing back down my river Singing my songs to the sea

I know that we're gonna be together you and me For more than a time or two your rhymes belong to me Rowing back down my river Chasing my tail to the sea Rowing back down my river Trying my best to be me

Back Down the River - John Martyn from the album "Bless the Weather"

Notes: This is an acoustic fingerstyle piece from one of John Martyn's Early albums. If you wanted to play it in the standard open-C (CGCGCE) You could - it would be no problem to alter the tab. I left the A string Alone because it's easier to change 3 strings than to change 4. The piece Has 2 main themes: the introduction and ending simply being small variations On the chorus. The ending, in particular, is probably just improvised, but I've transcribed it anyway - it's not much different from the chorus. There Are no timing marks, but most notes are quavers (except for a few measures in The chorus) - listen to the recording if you can. Comments, suggestions, Corrections etc. please Email me. Enjoy!
