 Subject: CRD:From Clare to Here - Nanci Griffith (was: Nanci Griffith)
 here's From Clare to Here from off of her last album. 
 These chords work, more or less, but I don't think they're exactly right,
 if anybody out there has a more precise rendering of the song could you
 maybe share your version?
 BTW, the song was written by a guy by the name of McTell, I think, I don't
 have the album credits handy and I can't remember the name for sure, but
 it's not a Nanci Griffith original.
 From Clare to Here
 
 
 C
 Four who shared this room and
          G               D
 We were caught up in the crack
 C
 Sleeping late on Sundays
        G            D
 And we never got to Mass
 
                C     D                G
 Chorus:	It's a long way from Clare to here
                C     D                Emin D
 	It's a long way from Clare to here
                C          D
 	It's a long, long way
                 Emin D      C
 	Gets further by the day
                           D                 Emin D
 	It's a long, long way from Clare to here
 
      C
 When Friday comes around
       G         D
 We're only into fighting
    C
 My Ma would like a letter home, but
 G                   D
 I'm too tired for writing
 
 
 Chorus
 
    C
 It almost breaks my heart
        G               D
 When I think of my family
    C
 I told them I'd be coming home with my
 G               D
 Pockets full of green
 
 
 Chorus
 
     C           D
 The only time I feel alright
     G       C       G
 Is when I'm into drinking
     C
 It can sort of ease the pain of it and it
 G      D      Emin    D
 Levels out my thinking
 
 
 Chorus
 
    C
 I sometimes hear the fiddles play
 G                 D
 Maybe it's just a notion
   C
 I dream I see white horses dance upon
 G           D
 That other ocean
 
 
 Chorus
