Rachel Gould's sensitive yet compellingly passionate exploration of Bargad's lyric bears repeated listening. Our Minus You track will allow you to make the song your own.
The three notes shown in the 7th and 8th measures that repeat the words "I'm at ease" are not sung by Rachel Gould on the recording; these optional notes are smaller on the lead sheet. Any vocalist has the option of including them or not.
Available in two different keys, G and B-flat. If you need this in a different key, email don@secondfloormusic.com and we'll make the transposition and post it on the site.
