Subject: CRD: Goodbye Ol Missoula / Willis Alan Ramsey

Goodbye Ol^Ò Missoula

Willis Alan Ramsey

Willis Alan Ramsey recorded one classic album on Leon's Shelter

records back in 73 or 74. The album has been reissued on CD.

W A Ramsey is still giggin' ya gotta see 'im.

The notation is as follows: the numbers correspond to the key

scale notes. In the key of A, 1 = A; 2 = B; b3 = C where

3 = C#, etc. The extensions are 1dom7 = A7; 1j7 = Amaj7;

1- or 1-7 = Am or Am7. No extension makes the chord simply

a major triad. The | is a bar line and / is a beat within a

measure that designates playing the same as previous chord.

No bar lines means the chord will get an entire measure's

time. Two chords per measure split the measure exactly in

half. W.A. actually plays in different tunings, these

changes are really implied voicings.

6/8 time

intro: 1 [2X]

1 1dom7

Searchin^Ò for the sunlight

2-7 1

On this winter^Òs day

|1 3- |6-

But here in ol^Ò Missoula

2- 5

They^Òve thrown the sun away

1 1dom7

Come tomorrow morning

2-7 1

I^Òm headed for the Bowsman Round

1j7 |b7 4 |1 / / b3 / 4 | 1 | 1 |

And it^Òs goodbye to ol^Ò Missoula sleepy town

1 1dom7

I met a girl named Rosie

2-7 1

Sweet as she could be

|1 3- |6-

But I guess that Rosie

2- 5

She didn^Òt have eyes for me

1 1dom7

Time waits for no one

2-7 1

Lord, why did I hesitate

1j7 |b7 4 |1 / / b3 / 4 | 1 | 1 |

And it^Òs goodbye to ol^Ò Missoula a day too late

5 1

Clouds that hang on the mountain

5 1

They make me lonesome inside

3- 6-

And these four walls surround me

2- 5

Leaving no place to hide

| 1 | / 1dom7 | 2- | 1 |

| 1 | 1 | 6- | 1 / / b3 / 4 |

| 1 | 1 |

Goodbye Rosie you^Òll never know

Time tells my love will pass

But if I just remember your smilin^Ò face

That^Òs all of time that I ask

Show in this town is over

Maybe just never began

And it^Òs goodbye to ol^Ò Missoula done all that I can

1j7 b7

And it^Òs goodbye to ol^Ò Missoula

1j7 b7 1j7 b7

goodbye to ol^Ò Missoula goodbye to ol^Ò Missoula

5 |1 / / b3 / 4 | 1 | 1 |

Sleepy town
