She Left Me By The River - Robert Hinchliffe
My lovin baby, she left me on my own,
My lovin darlin, dropped me like a stone,
Well can’t you see don’t you know that its doing me harm,
Oh can’t you see don’t you know that its breaking my heart,
Chorus
She left me by the river, gazin up into the sky,
She left me by the river, watching the ships roll by.
My lovin angel, to say the best she lied,
My lovin darlin, oh the times we tried,
But now the days are long, and the nights are cold, uh
Now I’m feelin tired, I’m lookin old
Chorus - She left me by the river…….
1st solo
My lovin baby, you been away so long,
My lovin darlin, left me holdin on,
Well out beyond the city, where the air is clean,
You know she, cut me down like a mowing machine,
Chorus - She left me by the river…….
2nd Solo
My lovin baby, she left me on my own,
My lovin darlin, dropped me like a stone,
But now I’ve closed that book and the stars in my eye, oh yeh
Now I’m feelin good and its her turn to cry
Chorus - She left me by the river……

My knees are shakin…, my hearts running wild …, I’d give it all…, for just one more smile..
Please stop, turn around, lets rock this joint, till the walls fall down, lets get our love back on the road tonight
Oh the sweetest thing…, I ever did see.., an angel standing…, right in front of me,
What should I say…, what should I do…? Come on.. please, make my dreams come true..
Gotta to stop, turn around, rock this joint till the walls fall down, get our love back on the road tonight
Well who can say, whats right or wrong, I just know, my loves gone wrong,
When I look in your eyes, I can feel the heat, I can hear these words, oh won’t you………
Please stop, turn around, lets rock this joint till the walls fall down, get our love back on the road tonight
The sweetest thing, I ever did see…, an angel standing right in front of me,
Oh what should I do, what should I say, Only you.., can make me feel this way…

Although I Love You Babe (Robert Hinchliffe)
Intro on E before 1st 12 bar
Your mind is strange, too strange by far,
You pushed it too the limit, babe you played it hard
But now you know, just how it feels to lose it all,
Altho I love you baby, I can’t stand the things you do
I took the pressure, you gave the pain,
I took it once and then you gave it right again,
You say you care, but you just care to see me blue
Altho I love you baby, I can’t stand the things you do
FIRST SOLO 1 (*1)
You were so cold, you were so cool,
You hit below the belt , broke all the rules,
And now you say , Hey honey when you coming home
Altho I love you baby, I can’t stand the things you do
SECOND SOLO (*2)
Your mind is strange, too strange by far,
You pushed it too the limit, babe you played it hard But now you know, just how it feels to loose it all
Altho I love you baby, I can’t stand the things you do
Outro chords

Just let your eyes rest there.

Oh I was sittin on the sidewalk, I was gazin at the moon so high
Yeh I was sittin on the sidewalk, gazin at the moon so high
Oh if your loved, or if you love one, feel like snow in the hot sun,
Just let your eyes rest there.
More solo’s

You keep me waitin, cos you know you can,

I Don’t Know Why – ROBERT HINCHLIFFE
Kickin the dust, like a hero must in a movie,
My head in the clouds, I was almost gone to believe,
Takin the tracks, that would lead me back up the mountain,
Tryin to force a tear back from my eyes
Chorus
But I don’t know why, no I don’t know why,
Oh I don’t know why, lord I don’t know why,
I ain’t got hands of steel, these hands were made to feel,
and I don’t know why,… please tell me why,
Some of us came, like the morning rain on the dirt roads,
Some of us laughed, and joked at all we saw,
But others believed in the words and truths that were spoken,
Yes our eyes were open, our minds cried out for more,
But I don’t know why, no I don’t know why,
Oh I don’t know why, lord I don’t know why,
I ain’t got hands of steel, these hands were made to feel,
and I don’t know why, Please tell me why,
Middle chords
Oh I don’t know why, know I don’t know why ……

Where the Fire Has Been - Robert Hinchliffe
The mind is a strange thing,
Turn the corner and you don’t know where you’re going,
Its not simple, its not easy, better slow down, before you get much older,
Your laughin, your happy, your such a fool,
The love that she feels, is not for you,
Don’t fall in love, where the fire has been,
Don’t fall in love, where the fire has been.
Uh your hungry, Yeh your starvin,
But don’t have the brains of a butterfly,
The fruit that you might eat, could just be the poison that you don’t need,
Your laughin, your happy, your such a fool,
The love that she feels, is not for you,
This thing inside is a blazin tower,
Don’t look up, don’t look back, just get out now..
Don’t fall in love, where the fire has been.
Don’t fall in love, where the fire has been.
Solo
Don’t fall in love, where the fire has been. (repeat 3 times)
You take a chance on love, Where the fire has been
Don’t fall in love, where the fire has been
You take a chance on love, where the fire has been

SummerTime - Gershwin
Summertime and the livings is easy,
Fish are jumpin and the cotton is high,
Well your daddies rich and your Mar’s good lookin,
So hush little baby don’t you cry,
One of these mornings your going to rise up singing,
Spread your wings, and reach for the sky,
Till that morning comes,
Nothings going harm you,
With Daddy and Mammi St-a-n-ding bye

Robert Hinchliffe Sheffield, UK
I started playing guitar, at the age of around 14. I also play the bass guitar, Hammond organ, and piano, but guitar is my main instrument and I guess obsession. Originally, I played acoustic guitar in folk clubs. Since then I've also played blues, rock and some jazz. ... more
