Affair on 8th Avenue - chords, tab and comments
From Gord's album "Back Here on Earth" (1968). I first heard it from a compilation "Ballad of the Yarmouth Castle" in the early seventies. The song reminds me of one special girl from college, thus I play it rather often.
That girl and me have stayed in contact through more than forty years. She got married with a friend of mine. She sure got a better deal, but the perfume still lingers on.
C#m G#m7 F#m G#m
the perfume that she wore was from some little store
A B7
on the down side of town
C#m G#m7 F#m G#m
but it lingered on long after she'd gone
A B7
I remember it well
E B7sus4 A9 B7
and our fingers entwined like ribbons of light
E Emaj7 A D B7
and we came through a doorway somewhere in the night
