about

Anna wrote this while strolling along Portobello Promenade, Edinburgh, before her very first ever gig, at the age of 58. It is sung by guitarist Al Grieve,

lyrics

Portobello words & music Anna Durkacz Ryan

Em The sun is setting in the West,
D Portobello’s at its best
C Strolling in the fading light
B Ready for my gig tonight
Em Feel the sand beneath my feet
D Moving to the bossa beat
C Watch the waves lap on the shore
B I could never ask for more.

G When the winds come from the north chorus
D Raging on the Firth of Forth
C Home is where I want to be
A Portobello’s home for me.

fiddle instrumental over verse

Em Night lies tranquil on the beach
D Thoughts of love are out of reach
C Folks are gathering in the bar
B Can’t turn back, it’s gone too far.
Em Time to get up on the stage
D Fiddle’s tuned, brain engaged
C Time to let the music soar,
B I could never ask for more.

chorus followed by fiddle

repeat verse 1 and chorus
then fiddle and slow down to end
