Beim Hifako gab es ein für mich neues Lied zu hören, dass mir auf Anhieb richtig gut gefallen hat: Ride On von Christy Moore. Der Text - übrigens geschrieben von Jimmy MacCarthy - ist nicht sonderlich schwierig, aber zusammen mit der Melodie richtig schön. Und das Gute dabei: nur drei Gitarrenakkorde (Em, D, C). E-Moll und D-Dur kann ich schon und somit ist dieses Lied die beste Gelegenheit, endlich C-Dur zu lernen. Und das geht mittlerweile schon einigermaßen.
True you ride the finest horse I have ever seen,
Standing sixteen, one or two. With eyes wild and green,
And you ride the horse so well, hands light to the touch,
I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to.
CHORUS (Twice)
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to.
When you ride in to the night without a trace behind,
Run your claw along my gut one last time.
I turn to face an empty space where once you used to lie,
And look for a spark that lights the night
Through a teardrop in my eye.
CHORUS (Twice)
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to.
Standing sixteen, one or two. With eyes wild and green,
And you ride the horse so well, hands light to the touch,
I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to.
CHORUS (Twice)
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to.
When you ride in to the night without a trace behind,
Run your claw along my gut one last time.
I turn to face an empty space where once you used to lie,
And look for a spark that lights the night
Through a teardrop in my eye.
CHORUS (Twice)
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to.
