Goodbye To The Rain Roger Whittaker 1976 | (Gold Rush 260) Corben Geis |
OPENER Basic - SSD Week 2
Four ladies chain, turn the girl
Rollaway and circle left
Four ladies rollaway, circle left
Allemande and weave the ring
I hear the call of distant mountains, running through my brain like a fountain
I'm going to say my goodbye to the rain, and chase the sunshine again
FIGURE Basic, corner progression
Heads (Sides) square thru go four hands travel,
You make a right hand star
Heads (Sides) star left go one time around then
Same two go right & left thru
Swing thru and then, swing thru again
Swing your corner and you all promenade her
I'm going to say my goodbye to the rain, and chase the sunshine again
MIDDLE BREAK Basic - SSD Week 1
Circle left
I'm looking for the long, lost highway, that I left a time ago
Men star right one time,
left allemande and weave the ring
I'm going to leave these cities of burning, and I've got no thoughts of returning
I'm going to say my goodbye to the rain, and chase the sunshine again
CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 1
Circle left
Some men may say, I'm a man of vision, some may say that I'm a fool
Men star right one time,
left allemande and weave the ring
I do not care for all their learning, they do not understand my yearning
I'm going to say my goodbye to the rain, and chase the sunshine again
OPENER
There comes a time when all men's fancies, turn toward the open road
There comes a day, when a woman's kisses, can not erase the need to go
MIDDLE BREAK
I'm going back to the fields and byways, where summer winds will cool my soul
CLOSER
They'll never know for all of their wisdom, what is behind the things I do?
