Below, you will find lyrics, song history, and tablature to many of Al Stewart's songs. Only officially released material is included. They are presented here in alphabetical order , with the album where they originally appeared. Clicking on a song title with an active link will take you to the lyrics for that song. In the other columns, clicking on an active "History" link will provide some history and references behind the selected song, compiled by fans.
The tabs column has guitar chords for Al's songs, collected here were created by fans for the enjoyment of other fans. Please realize they may not be how Al plays them on the records or in concert, and we cannot vouch for their accuracy.
None of this would be possible to provide without the help of Kim Dyer. Thank you!!!
