Song title:      Toujour La Voyage
Original Album:  Sweet Deceiver

Words and Music by Kevin Ayers
Copyright © 1975 Island Records Limited.
Published by EMI Music Publishing Limited.

Transcribed by Gavin Chart (www.gartfrets.net)


NOTES:
Shouldn't that be "le Voyage"...? Or, possibly, this is a Kev joke (remember "Am I Really Marcel")?
Nonetheless, this is one of the most beautiful of Kev's songs, with extraordinary guitar from Ollie Halsall.
You think you can play guitar...? Listen to his guitar part in the "duets" with Elton; it'll make you
feel like giving up... (Elton's work on the ivories isn't too shabby, either.)
