Biography:
Ralph McTell is an English singer/songwriter and acoustic guitar player who has been an influential figure on the UK folk scene since the 1960s.
Ralph McTell is probably best known for the song Streets of London which has been covered by over a hundred artists around the world. From Clare to Here has proved almost as popular, during a long and continuing recording and performing career.
McTell's guitar style has been influenced by many of the USA's country blues 'Piedmont- style' guitar players of the early 20th century

E Abm
If I take you dancing
Dbm E
Down the streets to watch you laughing
A Gbm
And stop still in the spring night rain
A B
Just to watch you smile again
E Abm
Understand I'll hold you hand
Dbm E
A little tight as if by this
A Gbm
I'll stop the night from running
A B
Into morning light too soon.

Ice cream and candy bars,

A Paris moon and Paris stars
A Gbm
Can you count the times
A B E
That we heard the chimes of Notre Dame
Abm
Across the Seine
Dbm E
To remind us sadly once again,
A Gbm
Time just like the river
A B
Was swiftly passing by.
INSTRUMENTAL:
E E E7 E A Am E E
E E A Gbm D B E E
VERSE:
E Abm
Just a few reminders
Dbm E
Of the little things that bind us
A
Do they make you sad
Gbm
Or make you glad
A B
To think about the times we had
E Abm
In my dreams you're dancing
Dbm E
In the embers of an evening,
A Gbm
And I'll hold your hand a little tight
A B
Just to stop this special night,
E D E E
From running into morning light too soon.
