Artist picture
Singer-songwriter, arranger and producer: acoustic contemporary folk but ranging into rock/blues/country/jazz/humour...all very eclectic, I'm afraid!
Martin Stirrup Singer/songwriter An old folkie who got back into it... These days I sing and play guitar(s) and other stringed instruments, then score and orchestrate where appropriate. My taste becomes increasingly eclectic ranging from finger-picked folk through country to soft rock mixed in with a few more alternative and eccentric numbers, including the odd novelty foxtrot...

Lyrics
AFS 14 Rolling wheels (Am Em D7 F shapes played at capot 2 so Bm etc) Intro: BmBmAA BmBmF#7F#7 Verse: BmF#mE7G A x4 Rolling wheels you know you’ll never slow that steel Windows down, that’s the way to lose that frown Cutting through the barriers they built for you Running free the way your life was meant to be Pouring out you wonder what its all about Blazing trails feel the wind upon your sails Making waves you’ll be a long time in your grave Sweeping clean the worries ‘bout what might have been Chorus:EmEm^BmBm^AA^GG AA half bar EmEm^BmBm^AA^GG F#7F#7 half bar Making up or making out Tomorrow is another world Bottle up or sing it out Get your banner unfurled Eating up or eating out While the world around you dances Raise your cup or angry shout You have to take your chances Shifting pace, time to walk and time to race Changing plans, working on the matter in hand Cut the rope, nothing clear but plenty of hope Fighting back, they thought they had you on the rack But the wheels keep rolling x4
