 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"

Fur Elise (Fingerstyle) - Helmut Bickel
Bagatelle No. 25 in A minor for solo piano, commonly known as "Für Elise" (For Elise), is one of Ludwig van Beethoven's most popular compositions. It was not published during his lifetime, only being discovered (by Ludwig Nohl) 40 years after his death, and may be termed either a Bagatelle or an Albumblatt. The identity of "Elise" is unknown; researchers have suggested Therese Malfatti, Elisabeth Röckel, or Elise Barensfeld.

Verse 1:
-------

  G             G6  
I get up in the evening
G      G6                  G
And I ain't got nothing to say
                    G6  
I come home in the morning
G           G6               C
I go to bed feeling the same way

                    Am7
I ain't nothing but tired
C             Am7                  G
Man, I'm just tired and bored with myself
           Em
Hey there, baby

I could use just a little help


Chorus:

You can't start a fire

You can't start a fire without a spark

Even if we're just dancing in the dark

G  G6   G  G6


Verse 2:
-------

Messages keep getting clearer
Radio's on and I'm moving 'round my place
I check my look in the mirror
Wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face

Man, I ain't getting nowhere
I'm just livin' in a dump like this
There's something happening somewhere
Baby, I just know that there is


Chorus:
------

You can't start a fire
You can't start a fire without a spark
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancing in the dark

There's a joke here somewhere and it's on me
Em                           G
I'll shake this world off my shoulders
C                             D
Come on, baby, the laugh's on me


Verse 3:
-------

Stay on the streets of this town
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

Skip to My Lou - willc
“Skip to My Lou” is a simple game of stealing partners (or swapping partners as in square dancing). It begins with any number of couples hand in hand, skipping around in a ring. A lone boy in the center of the moving circle of couple sings, “Lost my partner what’ll I do?” as the girls whirl past him. The young man in the center hesitates while he decides which girl to choose, singing, “I'll get another one prettier than you.” When he grasps the hand of his chosen one, her partner then takes his place in the center of the ring and the game continues. It's an ice-breaker, a good dance to get a group acquainted to one another and to get everyone in the mood for swinging around.

It's interesting to note that “loo” is the Scottish word for “love.” The spelling change from “loo” to “lou” probably happened as Anglo-Americans, and the song, became Americanized.

Verse:

G               Bm     C            G
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
    C+g              [G      Em]      A7
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land
        D7
called Honah Lee,
G             Bm    C                 G
Little Jackie Paper loved that rascal Puff,
    C+g                     [G      Em]
And brought him strings and sealing wax and
[A7   D7]   [G   D7]
other fancy stuff. Oh


Chorus:
------

G               Bm     C            G
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
    C+g             [G      Em]       A7

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea

And frolicked in the autumn mist in a
[A          D7]      G 
land called Honah Lee.


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.

Chorus:

C        D               G               C
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
        G                C               Dsus   D
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
C        D               G               C
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
       G             C                 D         G  G D G D
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.


Verse 1:
-------

   C                        D           G             C
Though I know that evening's empire has returned into sand
 G               C
Vanished from my hand
 G                        C*                  D        '
Left me blindly here to stand, but still not sleeping
   C           D            G             C
My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet
 G               C
I have no one to meet
         G            C*                    D        '
And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming

Chorus:
------

Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you

Verse 2:
-------

C            D              G              C
Take me on a trip upon your magic swirlin' ship,
   G                C            G                   C
My senses have been stripped, my hands can't feel to grip,
   G                C          G           C
My toes too numb to step, wait only for my boot heels
      D       D
To be wonderin'.
    C           D             G            C
I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade
  G         C                 G                C
Into my own parade, cast your dancing spell my way,
            Dsus       D
I promise to go under it.

Chorus:
------

Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you

Verse 3:
-------

Though you might hear laughing, spinning, swinging 
madly across the sun
It's not aimed at anyone
It's just escaping on the run
And but for the sky there are no fences facing
And if you hear vague traces of skipping reels of rhyme
To your tambourine in time
It's just a ragged clown behind
I wouldn't pay it any mind
It's just a shadow you're seeing that he's chasing

Chorus:
------

Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you

Verse 4:
-------

And take me disappearing through the smoke 
rings of my mind
Down the foggy ruins of time
Far past the frozen leaves
The haunted frightened trees
Out to the windy beach
Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow
Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky
With one hand waving free
Silhouetted by the sea
Circled by the circus sands
With all memory and fate
Driven deep beneath the waves
Let me forget about today until tomorrow

Chorus:
------

Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you

One more place I'd love to see,
To watch them Old Blue Ridge Mountains climb
When I ride Old Number nine.

Chorus

When I die, oh bury me deep
Down at the end of old Chestnut Street
So I can hear old Number Nine
As she comes rolling by

Instrumental: 16 Bars

Freight train, freight train, run so fast
Freight train, freight train, run so fast
Please don't tell what train I'm on
They won't know what route I'm going

Freight Train (Fingerstyle) - Six String Fingerpicking
"Freight Train" is an American folk song written by Elizabeth Cotten in the early 20th century, and popularized during the American folk revival and British skiffle period of the 1950s and 1960s. By Cotten's own account in the 1985 BBC series Down Home, she composed “Freight Train” as a teenager (sometime between 1906 and 1912), inspired by the sound of the trains rolling in on the tracks near her home in North Carolina.

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.

but there's someone who's torn it apart

but if you want, I'll try to love again

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

The Letter - The Box Tops
The Letter is a song written by Wayne Carson Thompson which was a #1 hit in 1967 for The Box Tops.

The track was recorded at American Sound Studio in Memphis in a session produced by Dan Penn. The recording session for "The Letter" began at 10 o'clock on a Saturday morning and took over thirty takes wrapping at either three or five o'clock that afternoon. Penn met Box Tops' vocalist Alex Chilton for the first time at the session: "I coached him a little...told him to say 'aer-o-plane", told him to get a little gruff, and I didn't have to say anything else to him". (Composer Thompson, who says he played guitar at the session, was thrown by Chilton's vocal, having imagined the song being sung in a higher key.) Penn - "[Chilton] picked it up exactly as I had in mind, maybe even better.

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

I saw her today at the reception
  C                    (F Lick)
A glass of wine in her hand
  C                            F

You might find you get what you need ahhhh, yeah


I went down to the demonstration,
To get my fair share of abuse.
Singing "we're gonna vent our frustration,
And if we don't we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse."

Chorus

I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
To get your prescription filled.
I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy,
And man, did he look pretty ill.

We decided that we would have a soda,
My favorite flavor, cherry red.
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy,
And he said one word to me, and that was "dead,
I said to him:

Chorus

Solo (Chorus - 5 lines)
You'll get what you need--yeah, oh baby.

I saw her today at the reception,
In her glass was a bleeding man.
She was practiced at the art of deception,
Well I could tell by her bloodstained hands.

You Can’t Always Get What You Want - The Rolling Stones
You Can't Always Get What You Want is a song by the Rolling Stones released on their 1969 album Let It Bleed. Written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, it was named as the 100th greatest song of all time by Rolling Stone magazine in its 2004 list of the "500 Greatest Songs of All Time.

Of the song, Jagger said: "'You Can't Always Get What You Want' was something I just played on the acoustic guitar—one of those bedroom songs. It proved to be quite difficult to record because Charlie couldn't play the groove and so Jimmy Miller had to play the drums. I'd also had this idea of having a choir, probably a gospel choir, on the track, but there wasn't one around at that point. Jack Nitzsche, or somebody, said that we could get the London Bach Choir and we said, 'That will be a laugh.'"

Who'll Stop The Rain - Creedence Clearwater Revival
Lyrically, "Who'll Stop the Rain" breaks into three verses, with a historical, recent past, and present tense approach. All three verses allude to a sense of unending malaise, pondered by "good men through the ages", "Five Year Plans and New Deals/wrapped in golden chains", and the Woodstock generation. The malaise is not defined, but appears to allude to a sense that man's problems have to be dealt with by those who wish to fix them, and that no ancient philosophers, money-promising government, or Flower Power generation can merely push them off by thought, money, or communal love.

I Will Always Love You (Fingerstyle) - Helmut Bickel
"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

Carry That Weight (Fingerstyle) - Helmut Bickel
"Carry That Weight" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles from their 1969 album Abbey Road. Written by Paul McCartney and credited to Lennon–McCartney, it is the seventh and penultimate song in the album's climactic side-two medley. It features unison vocals in the chorus from all four Beatles, a rarity in their songs. It is preceded by "Golden Slumbers" and segues into "The End".

The middle bridge—featuring brass instruments, electric guitar, and vocals—reprises the beginning of "You Never Give Me Your Money", but with different lyrics. The ending also reprises the arpeggiated guitar motif from the end of that track.

Intro:  D ' G ' D ' A '


Verse 1:
-------

D    '              G
You, who are on the road
G            D   '             A   '
Must have a code that you can live by
    D    '      G
And so, become yourself
G           D    '          A   '
Because the past is just a goodbye
D      '            G
Teach your children well
G              D        '      A   '
Their father's hell did slowly go by
     D        '        G
And feed them on your dreams
G             D         '           A   '
The one they pick's the one you'll know by


Chorus:
------

D         '             G
Don’t you ever ask them why,
       G                    D
If they told you, you would cry
       D                 Bm   '
So just look at them and sigh,
 G    A        D
And know they love you.


Solo:  D ' G ' D ' A '


Verse 2:
-------

And you (Can you hear?) of tender years 
(And do you care?)
Can't know the fears 
(And can you see?)
That your elders grew by 
(We must be free)
And so, please help 
(To teach your children)
Them with your youth 
(What you believe in)
They seek the truth 
(Make a world)
Before they can die 
(That we can live in)


Verse 3:
-------

And teach your parents well
Their children's hell will slowly go by
And feed them on your dreams
The one they pick's the one you'll know by


Chorus:
------

Don't you ever ask them, "Why?"
If they told you, you would cry
So just look at them and sigh
And know they love you

She's my baby I'm her honey

He ain't got laid in a month of Sundays
I caught him once and he was sniffin' my undies
He ain't too sharp but he gets things done

Never gonna let him go           In spite of...

Verse 3 (John Prine):
-------

She thinks all my jokes are corny
Convict movies make her horny
She likes ketchup on her scrambled eggs
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'
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

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

I Don't Want To Talk About It (Fingerstyle) - Helmut Bickel
"I Don't Want to Talk About It" is a song written by Danny Whitten. It was first recorded by Crazy Horse and issued as the final track on side one of their 1971 eponymous album. It was Whitten's signature tune, but gained more fame via its numerous cover versions, especially that by Rod Stewart.

In 1975, Rod Stewart recorded the song at Muscle Shoals Sound Studio in Sheffield, Alabama, for his album Atlantic Crossing. This became successful when it was released as a single. In the United States, it became a top fifty hit on the Billboard Hot 100 in early 1980 (#46 pop and #44 adult contemporary). In the United Kingdom, it topped the UK Singles Chart as a double A-side with "The First Cut Is the Deepest" in 1977.

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.

Ben E. King Original Version: Stand by Me (Key A)

Verse:

    G                   G7
The morning sun touched lightly on
    C             G
The eyes of Lucy Jordan
    G               '
In a white suburban bedroom
    D               D7
In a white suburban town

       G                    G7
As she lay there 'neath the covers
        C              G
Dreaming of a thousand lovers
         D                D7
Till the world turned to orange
         D               G      G7 
And the room went spinning round


Chorus:
------

        C             '
At the age of thirty-seven
        G           '
She realised she'd never ride
        G           '
Through Paris in a sports car
        G                 D   '
With the warm wind in her hair

        G                 G7
So she let the phone keep ringing
        C                 G
And she sat there softly singing
        D                  '
Little nursery rhymes she'd memorised
        C           G      ,
In her daddy's easy chair


Verse:
-----

    G                    G7
Her husband, he's off to work
        C               G
And the kids are off to school
G                       '
And there were, oh, so many ways
    D                D7
For her to spend the day

         G                    G7
She could clean the house for hours
    C            G
Or rearrange the flowers
   D                     '
Or run naked through the shady street
   D              G
Screaming all the way


Chorus:

At the age of thirty-seven

So she let the phone keep ringing

As she sat there softly singing

The nursery rhymes she'd memorize

In her daddy's easy chair.


Verse:
-----

 G                               G7
The evening sun touched gently on
     C             G
The eyes of Lucy Jordan
 G                        '
On the roof top where she climbed
G                              D   D7 ' '
When all the laughter grew too loud

         G                        G7
And she bowed and curtsied to the man
     C                      G
Who reached and offered her his hand
       D                    '
And he led her down to the long white car
D                     G   G7
That waited past the crowd


Chorus:

Through Paris in a sports car

With the warm wind in her hair

The Ballad of Lucy Jordan (Fingerstyle) - Helmut Bickel
"The Ballad of Lucy Jordan" is a song by American poet and songwriter Shel Silverstein. It was originally recorded in 1974 by Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show, with the name spelled "Jordon". The song describes the disillusionment and mental deterioration of a suburban housewife, who climbs to a rooftop "when the laughter grew too loud".

The song was recorded by the English singer Marianne Faithfull for her 1979 album Broken English. This version was released as a single in October 1979, and became one of her highest-charting songs. It is featured on the soundtracks to the films Montenegro, Tarnation and Thelma & Louise. In 2016, the Faithfull version was used in the finale of American Horror Story: Hotel.

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.

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

Knockin On Heavens Door (Fingerstyle) - GuitarNick
"Knockin' on Heaven's Door" is a song by Bob Dylan, written for the soundtrack of the 1973 film Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid. Released as a single two months after the film's release, it became a worldwide hit, reaching the Top 10 in several countries. The song became one of Dylan's most popular and most covered post-1960s compositions, spawning covers from Guns N' Roses, Eric Clapton, Randy Crawford and more. Described by Dylan biographer, Clinton Heylin, as "an exercise in splendid simplicity", the song features two verses, each of which represent the film's title characters and American frontier legends Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid.

Father and Son (Fingerstyle) - Helmut Bickel
"Father and Son" is a popular song written and performed by English singer-songwriter Cat Stevens (now known as Yusuf/Cat Stevens) on his 1970 album Tea for the Tillerman. The song frames a heartbreaking exchange between a father not understanding a son's desire to break away and shape a new life, and the son who cannot really explain himself but knows that it is time for him to seek his own destiny.

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

Verse 1:
-------

G               Bm     C            G
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
    C+g              [G      Em]      A7
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land
        D7
called Honah Lee,
G             Bm    C                 G
Little Jackie Paper loved that rascal Puff,
    C+g                     [G      Em]
And brought him strings and sealing wax and
[A7   D7]   [G   D7]
other fancy stuff. Oh


Chorus:
------

G               Bm     C            G
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
    C+g             [G      Em]       A7
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land
        D7
called Honah Lee,
G               Bm     C            G
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
    C+g             [G      Em]
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a
[A          D7]      G 
land called Honah Lee.


Verse 2:
-------

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 3:
-------

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 4:
-------

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 (Fingerstyle) - Guitar Globe
Guitar Globe’s Tab and Arrangement has been modified. Please see original score on: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lwX8J-vPfg" title="Gobol’s Tab and Arrangement" target="_blank">YouTube
...........

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.

Supermarket Flowers (Live Version) - GuitarZero2Hero
"Supermarket Flowers" is a song by English singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran. It was included on his third studio album (2017).

The song is the 12th and final track on the standard version of Sheeran's third studio album. In an interview with MTV, Sheeran revealed that the song is about his late grandmother. He said "She was in a hospital near my house where I was making the album so I saw her quite a lot while making the album and she passed away while I was in the studio. So that's my first reaction for anything that happens to me, good or bad, pick up a guitar." He also said that the song is supposed to "really make you cry". Sheeran had not intended to put the song in the album 'Divide' as it was simply a personal tribute to his grandmother that was written from the viewpoint of his mother. His father first suggested that he should play the song at her funeral, which he did, and his grandfather then urged that it should be included in the album after hearing it at the funeral. Sheeran said: "My grandfather just turned to me [at the funeral], he was like you have to put that out, that has to go on the record. It's such a good memory, that's why it’s ended up on there."

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.

Lyrics and Chords

Verse 1:
-------

C                       '
When I saw you standing there
C                   Dm
I bout fell out my chair
Dm                               F     
And when you moved your mouth to speak
G                          C
I felt the blood go to my feet.

Verse 2:
-------

Now it took time for me to know
what you tried so not to show
Now something in my soul just cries
I see the want in your blue eyes.

Chorus:
------

C                      Dm
Baby, I'd love you to want me
              F
The way that I want you
                 C
The way that it should be
C                      Dm
Baby, you'd love me to want you
              F
The way that I want to
         G           C
If you'd only let it be.

Verse 3:
-------

You told yourself years ago
You'd never let your feeling show
The obligation that you made
For the title that they gave.

Chorus

Solo

Verse 4:
-------

Now it took time for me to know
what you tried so not to show
Now something in my soul just cries
I see the want in your blue eyes.

Never Going Back Again (Fingerstyle) - Fleetwood Mac
Never Going Back Again, a song about the illusion of thinking that sadness will never occur again once feeling content with life. The lines "Been down one time/Been down two times" are in reference to the lyricist's efforts when persuading the woman to give him a chance

It was also created as a simple acoustic demo, titled "Brushes"; Fleetwood Mac then added further instrumental audio tracks to make it more layered. Inspired by triple step dancing patterns,

Verse:
-----

    Am                             G  F
She hangs her head and cries on my shirt.
[   G       Am     ][ G  C  ]
She must be hurt very badly.
               G       [  Am  D   ]
Tell me what's making you sadly?
[Am        D       ][  G           F   ]
Open your door, don't hide in the dark.
[      G           Am     ][     G     C  ]
You're lost in the dark, you can trust me.
C               G          [  Am   D  ]
'Cause you know that's how it must be.

Am      D      E7      Am
Lisa Lisa, sad Lisa Lisa.

Her eyes like windows, trickling rain
Upon the pain getting deeper
Though my love wants to relieve her
She walks alone from wall to wall
Lost in her hall, she can't hear me
Though I know she likes to be near me

Lisa, Lisa, sad Lisa, Lisa

She sits in a corner by the door
There must be more I can tell her
If she really wants me to help her
I'll do what I can to show her the way
And maybe one day I will free her
Though I know no one can see her

Lisa, Lisa, sad Lisa, Lisa
