Del caos viene para formar una melodía al sonido eléctrico de mis guitarras, a veces me veo como el mono, pero sin el cigarro😀😀

"If I Were a Blackbird" is a timeless, classic Nova Scotia folk song about forbidden love between a young maiden and a sailor re-imagined by Sue McBride. This beloved folk song of Nova Scotia was collected by Helen Creighton from the Armstrong twins, Alister and Judson, around 1950 in Lunenburg County, Nova Scotia. It appears to have originated in Ireland. In this variant of  the folk song, Sue pushes the boundaries of traditional folk music in instrumentation with mainly computer generated instruments and effects other than piano and tin whistle to create a melancholy atmosphere.

Lyrics:
If I Were a Blackbird - Traditional 

Verse 1:
I am a young maiden, a maiden so fair
Fell in love with a sailor, a young sailor boy
And we courted in secret,  by night and by day
'Til at length that young sailor, oh he sailed far away. 

Chorus:
If I were a blackbird, I'd whistle and sing
I'd follow the ship that my true love sails in
And in the top rigging, there I'd build my nest
And flutter my wings o'er his broad golden chest. 

Verse 2:
My true love is handsome, in every degree
And my parents despise him, because he loves me
Well,  let them despise him and say what they will
For as long as I'm living, I'll love that boy still. (Chorus)

Verse 3:
And if I were a scholar who could handle a pen
A secret love letter unto him I would send
And I'd tell him my sorrows, my pain, and my woes
Should the day come I find him, I'll crown him with gold. (Chorus)
Verse 1:  (repeat and fade)
