Candlelight And Wine Lyrics And Chords

Candlelight And Wine Song Lyrics And Guitar Chords. Written and recorded by Dermot O'Reilly and Ryan's Fancy. Also recorded in Ireland by Foster And Allen, Mick Galvin and The Barleycorn. The youtube video is by The Barleycorn with Derek McCormack doing the singing. Derek passed on in 2004. There are several songs on the site that feature Derek singing, his best in my opinion was My Last Farewell The chords here are set to the way Bob Sharpe sings it.
