Meet On The Ledge by Richard Thompson




                            Meet On The Ledge






Played live with a capo on 2nd fret so really in Key of A (first chord E)
D  Em
        We used to say
D  D/G  Em
        That come the day
D  D/C#  Bm     Bm7    Am  Am7
    We'd all be making songs
C               G
     Or finding better words
C           G            D
These ideas never lasted long

D  Em
        The way is up
D  D/G  Em
        Along the road
D  D/C#  Bm     Bm7     Am  Am7
     The air is growing thin
C               G
       Too many friends who tried
C                       G                 D    
    Were blown off this mountain with the wind

CHORUS
D                              Am
Meet on the ledge, We're gonna meet on the ledge
C                            G
When my time is up I'm gonna see all my friends
D                              Am
Meet on the ledge, We're gonna meet on the ledge
C                         G
If you really mean it, it all comes round again.


D    Em
        Yet now I see
D  D/G  Em
        I'm all alone
D  D/C#  Bm         Bm7         Am  Am7
     But that's the only way to be
C                       G
       You'll have your chance again
C            G              D 
Then you can do the work for me

Repeat Chorus

capo 2

D   Bm      D         Am         
 We used to say that, come the day,
 D    Bm           Am Am7
 we'd all be making songs
 C          G            
 Or finding better words. 
 C           G            D
 These ideas never lasted long.
    Bm     D  Am        D
The way is up along the road. 
    Bm            Am Am7
The air is growing thin.
 C        G                     
 Too many friends who tried were
 C              G        D
 blown off this mountain with the wind.

D                              Am
Meet on the ledge; we're gonna meet on the ledge.

When the time is up I'm gonna see all my friends.
D                              Am
Meet on the ledge; we're gonna meet on the ledge.
C             G
If you really mean it, it all comes round again.

 D     Bm      D   Am    D 
 Now I see I'm all alone. 
               Bm         Am Am7
But that's the only way to be.
 C                G           
 You'll have your chance again;
 C            G               D
 then you can do the work for me.
D                              Am
Meet on the ledge; we're gonna meet on the ledge.
C                G
When the time is up I'm gonna see all my friends.
D                              Am
Meet on the ledge; we're gonna meet on the ledge.
C             G
If you really mean it, it all comes round again.
