Artist picture
Singer-songwriter, arranger and producer: acoustic contemporary folk but ranging into rock/blues/country/jazz/humour...all very eclectic, I'm afraid!
Martin Stirrup Singer/songwriter An old folkie who got back into it... These days I sing and play guitar(s) and other stringed instruments, then score and orchestrate where appropriate. My taste becomes increasingly eclectic ranging from finger-picked folk through country to soft rock mixed in with a few more alternative and eccentric numbers, including the odd novelty foxtrot...

Story behind the song
This started as an almost Dylanesque enigmatic fingerpicked folk song - then Steve played with his new toy... (BiaB) Still part of the Age Old Story cycle...
Lyrics
AOS 14 Don’t blame me D Don’t blame me I wasn’t there G7 It was a long long time ago A G7 D If I’d have had a hand in anything then surely I would know Some anonymous affair Has left you floundering in its wake And if I’d anything to give I’d be prepared for you to take Bm If there’s a scar upon your heart F# A7 And you think I played a part E7 G7 You’re mistaken that I swear D It wasn’t me I wasn’t there There’s a shadow in your eye There’s and echo of some slight If you thought I passed you by you were mistaken in your sight I was never in your sphere Never danced about your flame So even if I’ve disappointed then there really is no blame If an emptiness within Makes you anxious to begin Then that’s fine but let’s be clear It wasn’t me I wasn’t there?
