I did the main thumb picked acoustic and all of the rhythm guitar layers and Dave did the Leads on an Ovation acoustic that pulled it all together.

Story behind the song
Song is about the Irish Immigrants that settled on the Cleveland - Lake Erie shore in hope of a better life for their families
Lyrics
You can smell fall in the wind The iron ore is piling up Before the ice chases the ships off the lake And the last delivery from Marquette Stepping out in Faith That things will be better than today Walking away from the past In the hope of a chance From Erins landing to the Kilkenny Cross To dirt were ancestors battles were lost The new home on the Erie Shore Where wifes and daughters cry no more Lead From my humble home on the Irish Town bend To the Whiskey Island Huletts We werent exactly in their favor So we lived closed to where we labored I admit we came here chasing a dream to give our sons a possibility That maybe if worked the ore and the factories That theyd get one step further than me
