I heard the word "Flocinaucinihilipiliphication" when I was a senior in high school in 1961 and we were encouraged (forced?) to learn a new word every week. How about Neumonalultramicroscopicvolcanokineosis

My Daughter recently took up the guitar. I myself played many moons ago, so I decided to pick it up again to play along with her lessons(someone else).I found a lot of old songs and chords on your site that my brothers and I played together. Thanks for a job well done. Ian

Just to let you know, the song "Duncan" is a post-Simon and Garfunkel chune by Paul Simon.

From: Helen Hey -- great site. Thanks! My Dad used to sing a song about "Dunderbeck's machine." It was quite gruesome -- "those kitten cats and long tail rats no more will they be seen -- they're all ground up to sausage meat in Dunderbeck's machine." Gruesome, but we loved it as kids. Unfortunately, that's the only line I remember, and my friends are getting really tired of hearing me repeat it. Could you please ask your Mom if she knows the rest of the words? Your Mom and my Dad seem to have much the same repertoire. Many thanks.

Heard a Dylan tune on the muzak today! Thanks for posting the tunes. Lot of street tunes on this list! BTW- All Simon and Garfunkel tunes are post Garfunkel tunes in my opinion. I think Paul said it all when he said "Garfunkel is a pain in the a#@!

I'm looking for the chords,lyrics, and tuning for Steve Goodman's fantastic blues version of the old gospel standard "I'll Fly Away." Steve did it in slide guitar style and an open tuning of some sort. What ever it was, it was great guitar. Typical Steve Goodman!! Thanks, Mike

Great site! I used to have a collection of songs like this, and somehow they apparently went to the same place baseball cards go to to die. I'm starting to rebuild my collection, and am "totally jazzed" about finding your collection. Thanks!

A great and helpful site! FYI...."Reason To Believe" was written by the late, great Tim Hardin. It was popularized by Rod Stewart (and others) but I assume you wish to gve due credit where it is due.

What a great site. What impresses me the most is the transposition capability. Is this a computer program which one would be able to obtain? Or is it something you programed? Would appreciate what you could share with me. Regards, Bill Connell

Dear Aaron, Thank you so much. So many songs I remember from my youth, how nice of you to provide this. You wouldnt' remember this song "Reach out in the darkness" but it's been on my mind alot lately. "I knew a man that I did not care for, and then one day, that man gave me a call. We sat and talked about things on our mind, and now that man he is a friend of mine." I never would have thought the 70's were innocent at the time, but looking back I realize how we really were. Good luck young man.

Sorry Aaron, but I took advantage of your practice absence by logging all my games on the ladder. Someone had to stop your probably 1 year reign on top and this is probably the only way I know how.

I think I have figured out the chords and a picking style for "The Big Rock Candy Mountains" (from O' Brother Where Art Thou?) but if you have any info I'd love to hear it. P.S... Your web site is great, keep it coming!

From: Gary
Great website - thanks for sharing! I have a few suggested changes for Mrs. Brown, You've Got a Lovely Daughter. On the refrain that starts, "But its sad,she doesn't love me now" it seems to me that the chords Am, C, Am, G work better than F, C, F, G. Similarly on the next line, I would replace the F with an Am.

Thank you!! I am a very occasional guitar player and just gave my 13 year old daughter her first guitar. I was looking for a songbook that had a collection of fun, classic and easy to learn and play songs and your compilation is just what I was looking for. Thank you for taking the time to put this together. I'm sure it will prove to be a valuable resource as my daughter and I work through the songs together.

I LOVE THIS SITE - and you are brilliant as well. Just discovered one little flaw. I transposed a Times they are a Changin' up 2 which is 4 1/2 steps into the key of A Sharp- I do not prefer sharps so it changed to B flat - however, when I tried to print it, it reverted to the A sharp version not the B flat. Can you correct that one tiny flaw?? Hope so cause this site is terrific otherwise!

First of all --- thanks for the really nice job you did on the songs. We entertain lots at retirement homes and some of these songs will be helpful. I also want to ask you about GOODNIGHT IRENE. It was written by HUDDIE LEDBETTER but I did not see the name there. I know your chords were written for the guitar but they work great for the autoharp as well.

Way to go, Aaron! I'm a new ukulele player and am supposed to lead a "sing-along" at some kind of party my wife and her friends cooked up and your site is going to save my bacon. Thanks again. Now I live in fear that it will go away--you wouldn't be willing to make a zip archive available for humble leeches like me, would you? Blessings again!

From: Debbie Upshaw I happened upon your site as I was looking for lyrics to "Streets of Laredo." I printed several of the songs you have, and noticed that the words you have to "Frankie and Johnnie" are different from what I had heard. I have a Jimmie Rodgers (the writer of the song) recording of it from 1929, and some of the words (whole verses) are different. Wondered where you got the lyrics posted on your site? Not criticizing, just curious.

From: gail lutz Gee, really takes me back - and I mean BACK... to the '60s does your selection of songs. I put my guitar away when I "grew up" and am now dusting it off in preparation for retirement! (but it has to compete with the dulcimer I receives for Christmas) Anyway, you have been a God-send with selections and chords (reasonably simple -ouch!my fingers hurt!), and this will be a huge time saver. I am looking for an obscure Joan Baez ballad about "...Today there were four Marys; tonight there'll be but three; there was Mary Beaton, Mary Seaton, Mary Carmichael and me..." can you help?

From: Linda I just love your page, I just found it. I am playing piano with cords and this is just what I was looking for. Fun, fun,fun. I just have a question. What does it mean when you wrote -G7. It didn't sound right. Thanks again for the great page.
Thu Jan 12 16:46:24 2006
From: Linda Hi, I just wrote and realized I asked a stupid question about -G7. It was on the song 500 Miles. But I changed it to a C and it sounds right now. Also on Swing Low. when it says A band of angels comin after me. That should be a F over comin. Thanks again for the swell page.

Hi, I am very happy to have come across your site, it is very hard to find the chords and lyrics together, especially for older songs. I am looking for the chords for (The Night has a Thousand Eyes-Bobby Vee or The Carpenters) and (Walk Away Renee - The Left Banke or ?) Again, thanks much for all the work you and your mom have done, keep up the good work.

Teaching my daughter to sing "I've Been Working On The Railroad." Stumbled onto your site and I am amazed at how cool this is. My family played or sang most of these songs when I was growing up. Theo Bikel, Ian & Sylvia, Chad Mitchell Trio all a big part of my musical life. This is great. And the transcription (modulation) engine is really nifty. Nice job!

From: Marvin Hudson I'm impressed with the all of the great folk songs this site provides. The beloved songs are very much a part of me.The ease of instantly transposing the lyrics opens up a brand new way to find the range that best suits my voice and challenging me to learn more unfamiliar chords. Please consider including John Hartfords Gentle On My Mind in your song index. Thanks so much, Marvin

Finally, a site that has a format that virtually anybody can use. I also have been collecting (over 950 now)songs since 1965. My format is slightly different, and a bit more to the standard, but with my own little style. So far, everyone has loved them. Been looking for someplace to share them. If you're interested in WP or JPG files of my songs, let me know. I can always send a sample.

Starting to get together with a couple friends on saturday mornings who play much better than I do but still enjoying. Found so many songs here on your page that I love to play, and you built in a transposer. This is soo WICKED !!! Love it. I'm book marking your page and watching for updates. It's my kind of music; Paul Simon, The Weight by The Band, Reason to Believe by Rod Stewart. I didn't know Paul Simon wrote Red Rubber Ball; a favorite from my kid days too. Bill

Tryin to figure out eric clapton "layla" Is chorus Dm, Bb, C, Dm ???????? Is verses Cm#, G#, Cm#, B, E, etc This song is hard to figure out but some chord progression go good with the song. I like it in dm. I want to get the verses right. any sugestion. I play with his unplugged version it seems to go good in dm and cm# etc. But I feel like I'm missing something in the song.

Hey Aaron, Just gonna give you a little input on Bill's inquiry on the Layla acoustic. Here's how I play it...The chorus goes:Dm Bb C Dm (repeat 3x) then Dm Bb C A C to build up to the Verses. The verse goes: C#m7 G#7, C#m7 C(barre) D(barre) E E7, F#m B E A, F#m B E A. Hope this works out for you. Clapton is GOD. (Aaron, you ain't no slouch on the guitar neither...Where's the Classical Gas tab, man?)

First, nice site. Second thanks Allan. Clapton is hard to just figure out by ear. Your input is great. I agree with your chords. Plug: I heard 3 bands last night. wow, nothin better than live music. Everything from haitian to 12 bar blues. Alexis, what type of music are ya lookin to play?

From: Mike Burnside I can't TELL you how much I've enjoyed all these songs. I'm barely a novice, but it sure helps when you're attempting an old favorite, and you have so many of mine!
