Love You 'Till the End

Where can I find sheet music for "Love You 'Till the End"? I need to have my Irish wedding band learn this song for my Italian bride. Thanks!

You can't. They'll have to figure it out from the record.

Somebody must have this. Any chance the band would sell me a copy? Or better yet... Come play it? Atlanta GA, USA

Honestly, why would I lie to you? The only Pogues sheet music in existence is the gtr/piano anthology "The Best Of The Pogues", which predated "Love You Till The End". This was put together by a music publisher hack who, so far as we know, merely transcribed and adapted the recorded versions (I have no idea how accurate they are). We never worked from "the dots" ourselves and most of us can't read music or are, like myself, musically dyslexic. The only exceptions are the orchestral charts written by Fiachra Trench and Peadar O'Riada and perhaps a couple of other studio contributors, but they were written for the benefit of hired session musicians, not the Pogues, who always worked Commando.

Really?! I never could read music either, would memorize bar by bar. After four years of faking it, my teacher found out and quit. Now I don't feel so bad about it.

Adunn: How much time you have? I have figured out many Pogues songs, so I guess Love wouldn´t be much tougher. But if you have wedding in few days, I´m sorry, this week I barely have time for sleep

i approached celtic stuff from the opposite perspective
from the classically trained side

i wonder what our differences would be

here are the chords..
If it's a real 'band', listening to that song should be enough...

Benno: Me too. First I played six years classical guitar - and later I started actually playing irish music, as well as I bought a whistle and learned fully to play by ear. But now I can both read music and both play by ear, which is nice

Who wrote this song? I know it was The Pogues post macgowan but ths sonf is a thing of beauty to me.

Darryl Hunt. If you like the song, get the remastered Pogue Mahone album, which contains another version of the song as a bonus. And Darryl's Bish album where you can find a version sung by him.

Isn't the whole song just 2 chords?

As Fluke points out, it's actually three, and it's dead easy to play as well. Even I can play it!

[Fyllo]

Do you need just the cords for guitar or the piano bits as well?

I'll try and see if i can come up with something, no guarantees though.
