Well done... but don't you think you should have given it to your Dad first

-Bc | 10/15/2004 | I haven't heard the Keith Urban version.
My first listen was an old 45 of Elton John singing "Island Girl" - I
remember the B side went for 5:45 something. "What a long song," I
thought - but it was much better than the A side. Later, I heard a
version with Bill Monroe playing banjo which was spectacular. Keith
Urban said: "I first heard this on a Juice Newton record" (Queen of
Hearts, Angel of the Morning). Juice, like Keith, omitted the last
verse:
"Now the old fat goose is flying cross the sticks. The hedge-hogs done, in clay
between the bricks. And the rockin chair
is creaking on the porch. Across the valley
moves the heardsman with his torch"
It's been forever since I've heard any
version but picked out a chord pattern
from my ears memory of John's version:
[G]Soon the pines will be falling everywh[C]ere Village [Am]children fight
eac[F]hother for a [D]share. And the
[G]6:09 goes roaring past the [C]creek
Deacon [Am]Lee prepares his [C]sermon
for next[G]week
The first two lines of the chorus I play the
same, the last two I play:
Just an [C]old fashioned f[D]eeling fully
[G]grow[F]owww[C]wn. . .Country
[Am]comfort in a [C]truck that's going back
[G]home
I welcome any comments (regarding the
song). If I've been playing this wrong all
these years I think my sister's record
collection isn't the only thing I should have
stayed out of.

G F C

I may be wrong though,this is the first thing I have ever disputed on this site
-lancejoker | 11/11/2004 | I'm trying hard to learn this song. I can sing it much better in the key of "D". Is it possible for you to tab the intro in "D".
