Mr. Bojangles - Jerry Jeff Walker (3/4, 6/8) 
Intro: C, C/B, Am, Am/G


   C           C/B            Am           Am/G
I knew a man Bojangles and he danced for you
   F   '     G     '
In worn out shoes
C           C/B               Am           Am/G
Silver hair, ragged shirt and baggy pants
F   '         G     '
That old soft shoe
F   '         C       E      Am     Am/G
He jumped so high, he jumped so high.
D7     '                G    '      G7     '
Then he lightly touched down


Chorus:

Am  '       G   '   Am  '   G     '   Am  '   G     '
Mr. Bojangles!!     Mr. Bojangles!!   Mr. Bojangles!!
C   C/B  Am  Am/G
Dance.

I met him in a cell in New Orleans
I was down and out
He looked to me to be the eye of age 
as he spoke right out
He talked of life, he talked of life, 
laughs slapped his leg stale

He said the name Bojangles and he danced a lick 
all across the cell
He grabbed his pants for a better stance, 
oh he jumped so high and he clicked up his heels
He let go laugh, he let go laugh, 
shook back his clothes all around

Chorus

He danced for those at minstrel shows and county fairs 
throughout the south
He spoke with tears of 15 years 
of how his dog and him just traveled about
His dog up and died, he up and died, 
and after 20 years he still grieves

He said "I dance now at every chance at honky-tonks 
for drinks and tips
But most of the time I spend behind these county bars, 
cause I drinks a bit" 
He shook his head, yes he shook his head, 
I heard someone ask him, please?

Chorus (fade out)

Hey Joe - Jimi Hendrix
Hey Joe is an American popular song from the 1960s that has become a rock standard and as such has been performed in many musical styles by hundreds of different artists since it was first written. "Hey Joe" tells the story of a man who is on the run and planning to head to Mexico after shooting his wife.

Released in December 1966, Hendrix's version became a hit in the United Kingdom, entering the Top 10 of the UK Singles Chart in January 1967 and peaking at #6. The single was released in the United States on May 1, 1967 with the B-side "51st Anniversary" but failed to chart. "Hey Joe", as recorded by The Jimi Hendrix Experience, remains the best known version of the song and is listed as #201 on Rolling Stone magazine's The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. In 2009 it was named the 22nd greatest hard rock song of all time by VH1. "Hey Joe" was the last song Jimi Hendrix performed at the Woodstock festival in 1969 and as such, it was also the final song of the whole festival.

Jack and Diane - John Mellencamp
According to Mellencamp, "Jack & Diane" was based on the 1962 Tennessee Williams film Sweet Bird of Youth. He said of recording the song: "'Jack & Diane' was a terrible record to make. When I play it on guitar by myself, it sounds great; but I could never get the band to play along with me. That's why the arrangement's so weird. Stopping and starting, it's not very musical." Mellencamp has also stated that the clapping wasn't supposed to be included in the finished song. It was recorded with the clapping in order to help keep tempo and then it was to be removed. However, he realized the song did not work without it.

Pink Houses - John Mellencamp
Pink Houses is a song written and sung by John Cougar Mellencamp. It was released on the 1983 album Uh-Huh on Riva Records. It reached #8 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in early 1984. "Pink Houses" was ranked #439 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.

Recorded in a farmhouse in Brownstown, Indiana, the song was inspired when Mellencamp was driving along an overpass on the way home to Bloomington, Indiana from the Indianapolis airport. There was an old black man sitting outside his little pink shotgun house with his cat in his arms, completely unperturbed by the traffic speeding along the highway in his front yard. "He waved, and I waved back," Mellencamp said in an interview with Rolling Stone. "That's how 'Pink Houses' started.

And I ain't done nothing
Since I woke up today

Go to work in the morning
Then come home in the evening
And have nothing to say?

Angel from Montgomery - John Prine
John Prine wrote "Angel from Montgomery" after a friend suggested writing "another song about old people", referring to Prine's song "Hello In There". Although Prine had "said everything I wanted to [about seniors] in 'Hello In There'" he was intrigued by the idea of "a song about a middle-aged woman who feels older than she is...[Eventually] he had this really vivid picture of this woman standing over the dishwater with soap in her hands....She wanted to get out of her house and her marriage and everything. She just wanted an angel to come to take her away from all this".

He ain't got laid in a month of Sundays
I caught him once and he was sniffin' my undies

Never gonna let him go           In spite of...

She thinks all my jokes are corny

Swears like a sailor when shaves her legs
She takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'
I'm never gonna let her go


Verse 4 (Iris DeMent):
-------

He's got more balls than a big brass monkey
He's a wacked out weirdo and a love bug junkie
Sly as a fox and crazy as a loon
Payday comes and he's howlin' at the moon
He's my baby I don't mean maybe
Never gonna let him go           In spite of...


Chorus (John Prine & Iris DeMent):

In spite of ourselves, we'll end up a'sittin'

Against all odds, honey, we're the big door prize
We're gonna spite our noses, right off of our faces
There won't be nothin', but big old hearts, dancin'
in our eyes

In spite of ourselves, we'll end up a'sittin'
on a rainbow
Against all odds, honey, we're the big door prize
We're gonna spite our noses, right off of our faces
There won't be nothin', but big old hearts, dancin'
in our eyes
There won't be nothin' but big old hearts, dancin'
in our eyes

In spite of ourselves

In Spite of Ourselves (Fingerstyle) - John Prine
This fingerstyle version of the song is arranged by Song Bike - jkehew1. Visit his: https://www.youtube.com/@jkehew1/videos" title="Song Bike - jkehew1" target="_blank">YouTube Channel

................

In Spite of Ourselves is John Prine's tribute to the music he grew up with -- good country songs written by folks like Roger Miller and Jack Clement. It is, at the same time, a golden opportunity for him to collaborate with some of his all-time favorite female vocalists. In the liner notes booklet, Prine tells the story: "I made a list of my favorite girl singers and the first nine I called said 'yes.' I nearly fell over." One of Prine's favorites is Iris DeMent, and her unique vocals grace four of the tracks here, including "(We're Not) The Jet Set," "We Could," and Prine's lone songwriting appearance, "In Spite of Ourselves," a song written for the upcoming Billy Bob Thornton film, Daddy & Them, in which Prine appears

 like a bump on a log


Verse 1:
-------

G
Up in the morning
C
Work like a dog
   D
Is better than sitting
     [ c' b' ]   G
Like a bump on a log

Mind all your manners
Be quiet as a mouse
Someday you'll own a home
That's as big as a house

I know a fella
He eats like a horse
Knocks his old balls
Round the old golf course

You oughta see his wife
She's a cute little dish
She smokes like a chimney
And drinks like a fish


Chorus:
------

There's a big old goofy man
Dancing with a big old goofy girl
Ooh baby, it's a big old goofy world


Verse 2:
-------

Now Elvis had a woman
With a head like a rock
I wished I had a woman
That made my knees knock

She'd sing like an angel
And eat like a bird
And if I wrote a song
She'd know every single word


Chorus:
------

There's a big old goofy man
Dancing with a big old goofy girl
Ooh baby, it's a big old goofy world


Solo: (Main Riff 2xs)


Verse 3:
-------

Kiss a little baby
Give the world a smile
If you take an inch
Give 'em back a mile

'Cause if you lie like a rug
And you don't give a damn
You're never gonna be
As happy as a clam

So I'm sitting in a hotel
Trying to write a song
My head is just as empty
As the day is long

Why it's clear as a bell
I should have gone to school
I'd be wise as an owl
Instead of stubborn as a mule


Chorus/Outro:
------------

There's a big old goofy man
Dancing with a big old goofy girl
Ooh baby, it's a big old goofy world

Ooh baby, it's a big old goofy world




Background Story:
----------------

About a year ago I was sitting around
Helping my ma finish a crossword puzzle
And there was this little thing on the back
Of the crossword puzzle book
It had a bunch of similes, like sly as a fox
Busy as a bee, and you were supposed to fill 
in the blanks

So me and her started fillin' 'em in and we got to
Laughing about some of them, and she started 
telling me
Of something that once she heard when she was a 
kid in Kentucky
And they're unmentionable
But I didn't forget about it, and I took that 
page out of the book
And kept it in my back pocket for a while

And I started collecting these similes
'Cause it seemed odd to me that somebody could 
sing like an angel
But eat like a horse
So I let this kind of simmer for about a year
And I sat down last Sunday and wrote this song

Originally this song was gonna be called
"When the world was flat as a pancake, Mona Lisa 
was happy as a clam"
But I opted for a different one here
It's just called, "It's a Big Old Goofy World"

In eighteen and fourteen we took a little trip

Along with Colonal Jackson down the mighty mississip

We took a little bacon and we took a little beans
       D7                            [G       D7    G]
And we caught the bloody British in a town in New Orleans.

We fired our guns and the British kept a comin'

Silent Night - Justin Sandercoe
The song was first performed on Christmas Eve 1818 at the St Nicholas parish church in Oberndorf bei Salzburg. The small town on the Salzach river, part of the former Archbishopric of Salzburg, had just passed from the Kingdom of Bavaria to the Austrian Empire in 1816. The young priest Father Joseph Mohr had come to Oberndorf the year before, he had already written the lyrics of the song "Stille Nacht" in 1816 at Mariapfarr, the hometown of his father in the Salzburg Lungau region, where he had worked as a coadjutor.

Dust in the Wind - Kansas
Dust in the Wind" is a song by American progressive rock band Kansas, first released on their 1977 album Point of Know Return.

The guitar line for the song was written by Kerry Livgren as a finger exercise for learning fingerpicking. His wife, Vicci, heard what he was doing, remarked that the melody was nice, and encouraged him to write lyrics for it. Livgren was unsure whether his fellow band members would like it, since it was a departure from their signature style. However he did offer it to them, and the song was accepted and then recorded.

Lyrics and Chords:
-----------------

Throughout history there've 
been many songs written about
the eternal triangle. 
The next one tells a story
of Mr Grayson and a beautiful
woman and a condemned man named
Tom Dooley. When the sun rises
tomorrow Tom Dooley must hang.

C                   '
Hang down your head Tom Dooley
C                       G7
Hang down your head and cry
G7                  '
Hang down your head Tom Dooley
G7                  C
Poor boy your bound to die

I meet her on the mountain
There I took her life
Meet her on the mountain
Stabbed her with my knife

Hang down your head Tom Dooley
Hang down your head and cry
Hang down your head Tom Dooley
Poor boy you’re bound to die

This time tomorrow
Reckon where I'll be
Hadn't ha' been for Greyson
I'd been in Tennessee
Well now boy

 
Hang down your head and cry
Hang down your head and cry
Well a, hang down your head and cry
Poor boy you’re bound to die

Hang down your head and try,
Hang down your head and cry
Hang down your head and try,
Poor boy, you're bound to die

This time tomorrow
Reckon where I'll be
Down in some lost valley
Hanging from a white oak tree

Hang down your head Tom Dooley
Hang down your head and cry
Hang Down Your head Tom Dooley
Poor boy you’re bound to die
Well now boy

Hang down your head Tom Dooley
Hang down your head and cry
Well a, hang down your head Tom Dooley
Poor boy you’re bound to die
Poor boy you’re bound to die
Poor boy you’re bound to die
Poor boy, you’re bound to die

Verse:
-----
                          A
Take the ribbon from your hair
                          D
Shake it loose and let it fall
                      E7
Layin' soft upon your skin
                        A
Like the shadows on the wall

Verse:
-----

Come and lay down by my side
Till the early mornin' light
All I'm takin' is your time
Help me make it through the night

Chorus:
------
                              D
I don't care what's right or wrong
                A
I don't try to understand

Let the devil take tomorrow
                        E
'Cause tonight I need a friend

Verse:
-----

But yesterday is dead and gone
And tomorrow's out of sight
And it's sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night

I don't care what's right or wrong
I don't try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow
'Cause tonight I need a friend

And tomorrow's out of sight
And it's sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night

I dreamed I held you in my arms

And I hung my head and cried

I'll always love you and make you happy
If you will only say the same
But if you leave me to love another
You'll regret it all some day 

Chorus

You told me once dear you really loved me
That no one else could come between
But now you've left me and love another
You have shattered all my dreams

Like a bird on the wire,

Verse: 4:

But I swear by this song

Bridge 2:
--------

I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch,
he said to me, "You must not ask for so 
much."
And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door,
she cried to me, "Hey, why not ask for 
more?"

Verse: 1:
--------

Oh like a bird on the wire,
like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.

Stand By Me (Fingerstyle) - LickNRiff
"Stand by Me" is a song originally performed by American singer-songwriter Ben E. King, written by King, Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller. According to King, the title is derived and was inspired by a spiritual composition by Sam Cooke called "Stand by Me Father" (although Mike Stoller has stated differently).

In 2015, King's original version was inducted into the National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant", just under five weeks before his death. Later in the year the 2015 line up of the Drifters recorded it in tribute to him.

Am             D7                  G
Now that I've lost everything to you

Baby I'm grieving
Am                     D7          G
But if you want to leave take good care
                Cmaj7              F
Hope you have a lot of nice things to wear
            Dm
But then a lot of nice things

Turn bad out there

Oh, baby, baby it's a wild world

Cuz I never want to see you sad girl.

I Started a Joke (Fingerstyle) - LickNRiff
"I Started a Joke" is a song by the Bee Gees from their 1968 album Idea, which was released as a single in December of that year. It was not released as a single in the United Kingdom, where buyers who could not afford the album had to content themselves with a Polydor version by Heath Hampstead.

With or Without You (Fingerstyle) - LickNRiff
"With or Without You" is a song by Irish rock band U2. It is the third track on their fifth studio album, The Joshua Tree (1987), and was released as the album's lead single on 16 March 1987. The song was the group's most successful single at the time, becoming their first number-one hit in both the United States and Canada by topping the Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks and the RPM national singles chart for one week, with a further three weeks at number two.

"With or Without You" features sustained guitar parts played by guitarist the Edge with a prototype of the Infinite Guitar, along with vocals by lead singer Bono and a bassline by bassist Adam Clayton. The song originated from a demo recorded in late 1985 that the group continued to work on throughout The Joshua Tree sessions. Ostensibly a troubled love song, the track's lyrics were inspired by Bono's conflicting feelings about the lives he led as a musician and domestic man.

.............


Verse 1:
-------

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby

Verse 2:
-------

Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true

Chorus:
------

Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me

Verse 3:
-------

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why, then, oh, why can't I?

Outro:
-----

If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow

            [C         G ]      [F       G]
I would have given you all of my heart
            [C          G ]        [F    G]
but there's someone who's torn it apart
            [C           G]         [F   G]
and she's taking almost all that I've got
              [C           G]       [F   G]
but if you want, I'll try to love again
         [C           G]            [F   G]
baby I'll try to love again but I know

The first cut is the deepest
               [C             G]             [F   G]
Cause when it comes to being lucky she's cursed

when it comes to lovin' me she's worst


Verse 2:
-------

I still want you by my side
just to help me dry the tears that I've cried
cause I'm sure gonna give you a try
and if you want, I'll try to love again
but baby, I'll try to love again, but I know


Chorus:
------

The first cut is the deepest, baby I know
The first cut is the deepest
Cause when it comes to being lucky she's cursed
when it comes to lovin' me she's worst


Solo


Verse 3: (Same as Verse 2)
-------

I still want you by my side
just to help me dry the tears that I've cried
cause I'm sure gonna give you a try
and if you want, I'll try to love again
but baby, I'll try to love again, but I know


Chorus:
------

The first cut is the deepest, baby I know
The first cut is the deepest
Cause when it comes to being lucky she's cursed
when it comes to lovin' me she's worst


Outro:
-----

The first cut is the deepest, baby I know
The first cut is the deepest
Cause when it comes to being lucky she's cursed
when it comes to lovin' me she's worst

Lyrics and Chords
-----------------

Intro:  Am, C, D, F, Am, E, Am, E


     Am    C        D           F
There is a house in New Orleans
     Am       C      E          E
They call the Risin' Sun
         Am       C       D           F
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy.
    Am     E        Am    C, D, F, Am, E, Am, E
And God, I know I'm one.

My mother was a tailor.
She sewed my new blue jeans.
My father was a gamblin' man
Down in New Orleans.

Now, the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and a trunk
And the only time that he's satisfied
Is when he's on a drunk

Organ Solo:  1 Verse 

Oh, Mother, tell your children
Not to do what I have done.
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the house of the Risin' Sun.

Well, I've got one foot on the platform.
The other foot on the train.
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain.

Well, there is a house in New Orleans
They call the Risin' Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy.
And God, I know I'm one.

Like a bird 'cross the sky
I am flying, passing high clouds
To be near you, to be free

Can you hear me, can you hear me
Through the dark night, far away?
I am dying, forever crying
To be with you, who can say

Can you hear me, can you hear me
Through the dark night far away?
I am dying, forever crying
To be with you, who can say

We are sailing, we are sailing
Home again 'cross the sea
We are sailing stormy waters

Sailing (Fingerstyle) - lonelypicker
"Sailing" was recorded by Rod Stewart for his first album recorded in North America rather than Great Britain: Atlantic Crossing, which album was recorded April – June 1975 at Muscle Shoals Sound Studio with Tom Dowd producing. The first single from the album, "Sailing" afforded Stewart an international hit notably in the UK where "Sailing" was No. 1 for four weeks in September 1975: augmented by a return to the UK chart in 1976 and – to a lesser extent – 1987, "Sailing" remains the Rod Stewart single to have the greatest success in its UK release. However, "Sailing" failed to afford Stewart a major hit in his newly adopted US homeland.

'Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh baby, I hate to go

I would only be in your way
So I'll go, but I know
I'll think of you every step of the way

Chorus:
------

And I will always love you
I will always love you

Bittersweet memories
That is all I'm taking with me
So goodbye, please don't cry
We both know I'm not what you, you need

Chorus:

And I will always love you
I will always love you

I hope life treats you kind
And I hope you have all you've dreamed of
And I wish you joy and happiness
But above all this, I wish you love

And I will always love you
I will always love you

I will always love you
I will always love you

I will always love you
I, I will always love you

Darling, I love you
I'll always, I'll always love you

I Will Always Love You (Fingerstyle) v2 - lonelypicker
"I Will Always Love You" is a song written and originally recorded in 1973 by American singer-songwriter Dolly Parton. Written as a farewell to her business partner and mentor Porter Wagoner, expressing Parton's decision to pursue a solo career, the country single was released in 1974. The song was a commercial success for Parton, twice reaching the top spot of Billboard Hot Country Songs: first in June 1974, then again in October 1982, with a re-recording for The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas soundtrack.

Whitney Houston recorded a soul-ballad arrangement of the song for the 1992 film The Bodyguard. Houston's version peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 for a then-record-breaking 14 weeks

D         E              G        A7
It is the evening of the day
D         E                  G    A7
I sit and watch the children play
G             A
Smiling faces I can see
D           Bm
But not for me
G         '                A7     '
I sit and watch as tears go by

My riches can't buy everything
I want to hear the children sing
All I hear is the sound of rain 
falling on the ground
I sit and watch as tears go by

It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
Doing things I used to do
They think are new
I sit and watch as tears go by

Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, 
hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, 
hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm

And they'll be carving you up, all right
They say you gotta stay hungry
Hey baby, I'm just about starving tonight

I'm dying for some action
I'm sick of sitting around here,
           trying to write this book
I need a love reaction
Come on, baby, give me just one look


Chorus 2:

D                 '
You can't start a fire
D                 '                C
Sitting around crying over a broken heart
              Am7
This gun's for hire
C                   Am7
Even if we're just dancing in the dark


Chorus 3:
--------

D                 '
You can't start a fire
D                 '                C
Worrying about your little world falling apart
              Am7
This gun's for hire
C                   Am7            G
Even if we're just dancing in the dark 255

I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee,
  D                ‘                  ‘         ‘
A place where even squares can have a ball
A7                 ‘                  ‘         ‘
We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse,
    A7                        ‘                 D    ‘
And white lightin's still the biggest thril of all


Verse 2:
-------

We don't make a party out of lovin';
We like holdin' hands and pitchin' woo;
We don't let our hair grow long and shaggy,
Like the hippies out in San Francisco do.


Chorus:
------

I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee,
A place where even squares can have a ball
We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse,
And white lightin's still the biggest thril of all


Verse 3:
-------
Leather boots are still in style for mainly footwear;
Beads and roman sandals won't be seen.
Football's still the roughest thing on campus,
And the kids here still respect the college dean.


Outro:
-----

We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse,
In Muskogee, Oklahoma, USA.

Okie From Muskogee - Merle Haggard
Okie from Muskogee is an American country music song performed by its co-writer, Merle Haggard. Released in September 1969, the song became one of the most famous of his career

Haggard told "The Boot" that he wrote the song after he became disheartened watching Vietnam War protests and incorporated that emotion and viewpoint into song. Haggard says, "When I was in prison, I knew what it was like to have freedom taken away. Freedom is everything. During Vietnam, there were all kinds of protests. Here were these [servicemen] going over there and dying for a cause — we don't even know what it was really all about. And here are these young kids, that were free, bitching about it. There's something wrong with that and with [disparaging] those poor guys." He states that he wrote the song to support the troops.

Lyrics:

Well, I'm so tired of crying
But I'm out on the road again
I'm on the road again
Well, I'm so tired of crying
But I'm out on the road again
I'm on the road again
I ain't got no woman
Just to call my special friend

You know the first time I traveled
Out in the rain and snow
In the rain and snow
You know the first time I traveled
Out in the rain and snow
In the rain and snow
I didn't have no payroll
Not even no place to go

And my dear mother left me
When I was quite young
When I was quite young
And my dear mother left me
When I was quite young
When I was quite young
She said, Lord, have mercy on my wicked son.

Take a hint from me, mama
Please don't you cry no more
Don't you cry no more
Take a hint from me, mama
Please don't you cry no more
Don't you cry no more
'Cause it's soon one morning
Down the road I'm going

But I ain't going down
That long old lonesome road
All by myself
But I ain't going down
That long old lonesome road
All by myself
I can't carry you, baby
Gonna carry somebody else

On the Road Again - MG Shuffle
"On the Road Again" is a song recorded by the American blues rock group Canned Heat in 1967. A driving blues rock boogie, it was adapted from earlier blues songs and includes mid-1960s psychedelic rock elements. Unlike most of Canned Heat's songs from the period which were sung by Bob Hite, second guitarist and harmonica player Alan Wilson provides the distinctive high-pitched vocal, sometimes described as a falsetto.

When I woke up, the rain was falling down,
C                          D
There were people standing all around.

Hold me darling just a little while.
G                             Em

I lost my love, my life that night.

Last Kiss (Fingerstyle) - Michael Erwin
"Last Kiss" is a song released by Wayne Cochran in 1961 on the Gala label. It failed to do well on the charts. Cochran subsequently re-recorded his song for the King label in 1963. It was later revived by J. Frank Wilson and the Cavaliers, Pearl Jam and several international artists, including the Canadian group Wednesday, with varying degrees of success. The song was one of several teen tragedy songs from that period. The song's opening lyrics mirror the opening lyrics of Septimus Winner's "Der Deitcher's Dog".

My Creole Belle (Fingerstyle) - Mississippi John Hurt
John Smith Hurt, better known as Mississippi John Hurt (July 3, 1893 or March 8, 1892 - November 2, 1966) was an American country blues singer and guitarist.

Raised in Avalon, Mississippi, Hurt taught himself how to play the guitar around age nine. Singing in a loud whisper, to a melodious finger-picked accompaniment, he began to play local dances and parties while working as a sharecropper. He first recorded for Okeh Records in 1928, but these were commercial failures, and Hurt drifted out of the recording scene, where he continued his work as a farmer. After a man discovered a copy of one of his recordings, "Avalon Blues", which gave the location of his hometown, there became increased interest in his whereabouts. Tom Hoskins, a blues enthusiast, would be the first to locate Hurt in 1963. He convinced Hurt to relocate to Washington, D.C., where he was recorded by the Library of Congress in 1964. This rediscovery helped further the American folk music revival, which had led to the rediscovery of many other bluesmen of Hurt's era. Hurt entered the same university and coffeehouse concert circuit as his contemporaries, as well as other Delta blues musicians brought out of retirement. As well as playing concerts, he recorded several studio albums for Vanguard Records.

Spike Driver Blues - Mississippi John Hurt
John Henry is an American folk hero and tall tale. Henry worked as a "steel-driver"—a man tasked with hammering and chiseling rock in the construction of tunnels for railroad tracks. In the legend, John Henry's prowess as a steel-driver was measured in a race against a steam powered hammer, which he won only to die in victory with his hammer in his hand.

The story of John Henry has been the subject of numerous songs, stories, plays, and novels.

A (played 1 time)


A                                  A
L.A. is fine, sunshine most of the time
        D                          D
And the feeling is laid back
E
Palm trees grow and the rents are low
E 
But you know I keep thinking about
A                    A
Making my way back


          A                               A
Well, I'm New York City born and raised
                                   D      D
But nowadays, I'm lost between two shores
E
L.A. is fine, but it ain't home
E                                  A      A
New York's home but it ain't mine no more


Chorus:
------
         A           A         D          D
I am, I said,     to no one there

And no one heard at all, not even the chair

I am, I cried,    I am,   said I 
    D                     [f#  e      d]  A
And I am lost,  and I    can't even say  why
[c#  b    a  ]   E (hold)      Intro. (2 times)
Leavin'   me     lonely still


Did you ever read about a frog who dreamed of being a king
And then became one
Well, except for the names and a few other changes
If you talk about me, the story's the same one

But I got an emptiness deep inside
And I've tried but it won't let me go
And I'm not a man who likes to swear
But I've never cared for the sound of being alone


Chorus:
------
         A           A         D          D
I am, I said,     to no one there

I am, I cried,    I am,   said I

I Am... I Said - Neil Diamond
"I Am... I Said" is a song written and recorded by Neil Diamond. Released as a single on March 15, 1971, it was quite successful, at first slowly climbing the charts, then more quickly rising to number 4 on the U.S. pop singles chart by May 1971. It fared similarly across the Atlantic, reaching number 4 on the UK pop singles chart as well.

"I Am... I Said" took Diamond four months to compose. One of his most intensely personal efforts, it depicts the singer lost between two worlds

Down By The River - Neil Young
"Down by the River" is a song composed by Neil Young. It was first released on his 1969 album with Crazy Horse, Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere. Young explained the context of the story in the liner notes of his 1977 anthology album Decade, stating that he wrote "Down by the River," "Cinnamon Girl" and "Cowgirl in the Sand" while delirious in bed in Topanga Canyon with a 103°F (39°C) fever

Live performances vary from shorter solo acoustic performances, as on the Crosby Stills Nash & Young release Four Way Street, to twelve minutes long, as on the Live at the Fillmore East release featuring Crazy Horse.

Yellow Ledbetter - Pearl Jam
Yellow Ledbetter is based on a I-V-IV chord progression in the key of E major. McCready plays his Stratocaster on the track in the style of Jimi Hendrix, incorporating hammer-ons and pull-offs into the subtle chord work. He uses the guitar's whammy bar during the solo, bending notes to create a vacuum-like sound.

Although many fans have made their own interpretations of the song, a common theory has been that the song is about someone receiving a letter and finding his or her brother had died overseas in war, cited from the lyrics in the Live at the Garden version "I don't know whether my brother will be coming home in a box or a bag".

I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul
Don't think twice, it's all right

I'm walking down that long and lonesome road babe
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
But goodbye's too good a word, gal
So I'll just say fare thee well
I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind
You could have done better but I don't mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don't think twice, it's all right
But don't think twice, it's all right

Don't Think Twice, It's Alright - Peter, Paul and Mary
Dylan once introduced "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right" as "a statement that maybe you can say to make yourself feel better... as if you were talking to yourself." The melody is based on an older song, "Who's Gonna Buy Your Chickens When I'm Gone." The melody was taught to Dylan by folksinger Paul Clayton, who had used the melody in his song "Who's Gonna Buy Your Ribbon Saw

As well as the melody, a couple of lines were taken from Clayton's "Who's Goin' to Buy You Ribbons When I'm Gone?" which was recorded in 1960, two years before Dylan wrote "Don't Think Twice." Lines taken word-for-word or slightly altered from the Clayton song are, "T'ain't no use to sit and wonder why, darlin'," and, "So I'm walkin' down that long, lonesome road."

Verse:
-----

Together they would travel on a boat with
billowed sail
Jackie kept a lookout perched on Puff’s
gigantic tail,
Noble kings and princes would bow whenever
they came,
Pirate ships would lower their flags when
Puff roared out his name. oh!

Chorus


Verse:
-----

Dragon lives forever but not so little boys
Painted wings and giant things make way
for other toys.
One grey night it happened, Jackie Paper
came no more
And Puff that mighty dragon, he ceased
his fearless roar.


Verse:
-----

His head was bent in sorrow, green scales
fell like rain,
Puff no longer went to play along the
cherry lane.
Without his life-long friend, Puff could
not be brave,
So Puff that mighty dragon, he slipped
into his cave. oh!

Puff the Magic Dragon - Peter, Paul and Mary
Puff the Magic Dragon is a song written by Leonard Lipton and Peter Yarrow, and made popular by Yarrow's group Peter, Paul and Mary in a 1963 recording. The song achieved great popularity.

The lyrics for "Puff, the Magic Dragon" were based on a 1959 poem by Leonard Lipton, a 19-year-old Cornell University student. Lipton was inspired by an Ogden Nash poem titled "Custard the Dragon", about a "realio, trulio little pet dragon."

The lyrics tell a story of the ageless dragon Puff and his playmate Jackie Paper, a little boy who grows up and loses interest in the imaginary adventures of childhood and leaves Puff alone and depressed. The story of the song takes place "by the sea" in the fictional land of Honalee.
