Biography:
Gerald "Gerry" Rafferty (16 April 1947 – 4 January 2011) was a Scottish singer-songwriter. In his early years, Rafferty earned money by the formerly illegal practice of busking on the London Underground. Poetically, his biggest hit, 1978's "Baker Street", discusses busking at a tube station and being a part of the street life. After working with Billy Connolly (now better known as a comedian) in an obscure outfit known as The Humblebums, he released his first solo album, called 'Can I Have My Money Back', in 1971.

Right Down The Line - Gerry Rafferty (1977)
[Intro] (Guitar Solo):
Dm C Am F (x3)
C G Am->G->F
Dm C
You know I need your love
Am F
You've got that hold over me
Dm C
Long as I got your love
Am F
You know that I'll never leave
Dm C
When I wanted you to shape my life
Am F
I had no doubt in my mind
C
And it's been you
G
Woman
Am G F
Right down the line
I know how much I lean on you
Only you can see
The changes that I've been through
Have left a mark on me
You've been as constant as a northern star
The brightest light that shines
It's been you
Woman
Right down the line
[Chorus]
D Bm G
I just want to say this is my way
E A F
Of telling you everything I could never
Dm
Say before
Bm G
Yeah this is my way
E A F
Of telling you that every day I'm loving you
Dm
so much more...
C
...'Cause you believed in me
Through my darkest night
Put something better inside of me
You brought me into the light
Threw away all those crazy dreams
I put them all behind
And it was you
Woman
Right down the line
[Guitar Solo]
Dm C Am F (x3)
C G Am->G->F
If I should doubt myself
If I'm losing ground
I won't turn to someone else
They'd only let me down
When I wanted you to shape my life
I had no doubt in my mind
And it's been you
Woman
Right down the line
D Bm G
Oooh ooohhh..Woooh... etc. (chorus chords x2 till fade out)
