Rafferty Gerry

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)
