Today's Target and pay per lesson is now live..

Early Morning Rain was written by Gordon Lightfoot and recorded by Peter, Paul & Mary, effectively bringing Gordon up the ladder into public view. His first record for United Artists, Lightfoot, presented his versions of many of his early tunes. This song is really more of a Campfire song, using a basic strumming pattern and a simple set of three chords in the key of D. It is done in Dropped D Tuning.

Enjoy!

The Circle Is Small
Race Among The Ruins
I'm Not Supposed To Care
Affair On 8th Avenue
Did She Mention My Name
Does Your Mother Know
Walls
Looking At The Rain
Sit Down Young Stranger
Miguel
Now And Then
Ghosts Of Cape Horn
Song For A Winter's Night
Canadian Railroad Trilogy
A Minor Ballad

are some that pop into my head quickly...
