Cold on the Shoulder - chords, tab and comments


Though countless and various artists list him as a mentor and favorite songwriter, Gordon Lightfoot's scores as an artist is low, compared with many of those who have recorded his songs, with million-selling results. But he's had a few. In February 1975 he released "Cold on the Shoulder" both as single and album; in March it reached #10 at the album charts, and in October he included it with new album "Gord's Gold".
The song is archetypical Lightfoot: simple, solid and catchy craftswork.
