_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [G] _ _

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C#] _ [A] _ _ _ _ [N] _ So Miss Macleod's Rail is probably one of those tunes that came over from Scotland.
_ It's very popular in both places. _
_ _ In Scotland they tend to call her Mrs Macleod, _ _ but in
Ireland _ she's Miss.
_ It was recorded _ by Michael Coleman, _ but I believe it was a popular tune
even before he recorded [G] it. _ _
So _ this version is in G and [Cm] it starts off with a little string
crossing [G] motion.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
[Bm] _ _ [N] So the first note is G and then B G, [G] _ _ _ D G, _ B G. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ And after that [G] we have _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ the next phrase. _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ [D#] So the first two [G] phrases.
_ So Miss Macleod's Rail, _ _ _
_ _ [D] when I play the G
and the B I often play them [G] together. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
[A] And then it doubles stop [F#m] here.
_ _ _ [G] _
_ _ [D] _ _ [G] _ _ [D] _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
Now in the basic
version I played that phrase, [Bm] _ _
_ _ [G] but [Bm] normally I would put in the C there.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ [F#m] _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ [D] _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _
