Re: The Crow Road Croft

On The Portage by RANT the parts seem to be the other way round.

Anyway, as scored here, but with reference to the RANT recording, the chords are something like:
|D|D|D|D|G|A|G|A|
|D|D|D|D|G|A|D|D||
|D|A|Bm|A|D|A|Bm|A|
|D|A|Bm|A|D|A|Bm|A||

Having just listened to it, there is much more chordal variation in the Wooden Flute and Fiddle recording.
Sometimes the third line seems to start on Bm and finish with a rising line |Em|D/F#|G|A| - lots of other variations here and there.
