A7hind me, was that Dbear.
DThen up ahead, I saw a tree,
A great big A7tree, Oh
mercy Dme.
DThe nearest branch, was ten feet up,
I had to A7jump, and trust my Dluck.
DAnd so I jumped, up in the air,
But I missed that A7branch, a way
up Dthere.
DNow don’t you fret, now don’t you frown,
I caught that A7branch, On my
way Ddown.
DThe moral to, this story is,
Don’t talk to A7bears, whilst
in the Dwoods.
DThat’s all, That’s all, There ain’t no more,
Unless I A7meet that bear once Dmore.

COn top of SpaFghetti all covered with Ccheese
I lost my poor G7meatball when somebody Csneezed.
It rolled off the Ftable and onto the Cfloor
And then my poor G7meatball rolled out of the Cdoor.
It rolled in the Fgarden and under a Cbush
And then my poor G7meatball was nothing but Cmoosh.
But the moosh was as Ftasty as tasty can Cbe
And early next G7summer it grew into a Ctree.
The tree was all Fcovered with beautiful Cmoss
It grew lovely G7meatballs in tomato Csauce.

Hang onto your G7meatballs and DON'T EVER CSNEEZE!

ANow I know my DA-B- ACs. E7Next time Awon't you Esing with Ame.
Well it's Glonesome away from your Ckindred and all
By the Dcampfire at night where the D7wild dingos Gcall
But there's nothin' so lonesome, Cmorbid or drear
Than to Dstand in the bar of a D7pub with no Gbeer
Now the Gpublican's anxious for the Corder to come
And there's a Dfaraway look on the D7face of the Gbum
The maid's gone all cranky and the Ccook's acting queer
What a Dterrible place is a D7pub with no Gbeer
Now the Gstockman rides up with his Cdry, dusty throat
He Draces up to the bar and pulls a D7wad from his Gpoke
But the smile on his face quickly Cturns to a sneer
When the Dbarman says sadly: "The D7pub's got no Gbeer!"
Now the Gswaggie comes in, all Ccovered with flies
He Dthrows down his swag and rubs D7sweat from his Geyes
But when he is told he says, C"What's this I hear?
I've trudged Dfifty flamin' miles to a D7pub with no Gbeer!"
There's a Gdog on the verandah, for his Cmaster he waits
But the Dboss is inside drinking D7wine with his Gmates
He hurries for cover and he Ccringes in fear
It's no Dplace for a dog round a D7pub with no Gbeer
Old GBilly, the blacksmith, the first Ctime in his life
Has Dgone home cold sober to D7his darling Gwife
He walks in the kitchen; she says: C"You're early, Bill dear"
Then he Dbreaks down and he tells her that the D7pub's got no Gbeer
So it's Glonesome away from your Ckindred and all
By the Dcampfire at night where the D7wild dingos Gcall
But there's nothin' so lonesome, so Cmorbid or drear
Than to Dstand in the bar of a D7pub with no Gbeer
CGive me a man who's a Fman among
men,
Who'll Cstow his white G7collar and Cput down his G7pen.
CWe'll blow down a mountain and Fbuild you a
dam,
CBigger and better than G7old Uncle CSam!
CRoll! G7Roll! FRoll on your way!
CSnowy G7River Croll on your G7way!
CRoll on your way until FJudgement
Day!
CSnowy G7River Croll.
CSometimes it's raining and Fsometimes
it's hail,
CAnd sometimes it G7blows up a Cblizzardly G7gale.
CSometimes there's fire and Fsometimes
there's flood,
CAnd sometimes you're up to your G7eyeballs in Cmud!
CGive me bulldozers and Ftractors 'n'
hoses,
C'N' diesels to G7ease all my Ctroubles a G7way.
CWith the help of the Lord and Fgood Henry
Ford
CThe Snowy will G7roll on her Cway.
CDon't bring your sweetheart unFless she's
your wife,
CFor here you must G7follow a Cbachelor G7life!
CWhen woman is woman, a Fman is a
fool!
CY' get much more work from a G7bow-legged Cmule.

Prelude chords: D G
D A D
1. DIn
the finest harbour in the world, in a Gcove
they’re callin DSydney,
The DCaptain,
Governor Phillip, trimmed his Asails,
With Dshelter from the winds and the Gbig Pacific DOcean,
We landed in ANew South DWales.
2. DAnd
you should see the parrots, all Gcoloured
in like Drainbows,
Wallabys and screeching cockaAtoos,
And a Dbird that won’t stop laughin when he Gsees me gettin a Dfloggin,
He wouldn’t be laughin, If Ahe was in m’ Dshoes.
CHORUS 1
You beat your drum, you drink your rum,
you Dthreaten me with hangin.
It’s Gdifficult with a chain around me Dankle.
But Ggiven
half a chance, I’d break and Ddisappear
in the grey gums,
And Dlearn
to live like a Anative in this Dland.
3. DAnd
the native blacks are friendly, even Gthough
a bit suDspicious,
Of anyone with a redcoat or a Agun.
If DI
could learn their lingo, and Glisten to
the Ddreamtime,
The bush and me and the Aanimals would be Done.
CHORUS 2
GAnd the convict mates all hate the place, Dthey long for Mother England.
But Gwhat
in heck has she got I deDclare,
The Gchimneys
are a smokin, they’re Dsmelly and they’re chokin,
And the Dukes own every Abunny rabbit Dthere.
4. DAnd
the Irish girl I met with, in the Gmiddle
of the Docean,
She said she’s keen and willin to marry Ame,
DWorkin like a dog, and Gtreated like a Ddonkey,
Given ten years or Aso I might be Dfree.
Repeat CHORUS 1
twice.
1. I’ve Gbeen around the Emworld a couple of Amtimes or maybe D7more,
I’ve Amseen the sights, I’ve D7had delight on Gevery foreign shore,
But when my friends all Emask me, The Amplace I aA7dore,
I Amtell them D7right aGway.
CHORUS
GGive me a Emhome among
the Amgum D7trees, with lots of Amplum D7trees.
A Gsheep or two, a D7kangaroo, A Gclothes line out the Emback,
Amverandah out the D7front, And an
Amold D7rockin Gchair.
2. You can Gsee me in the Emkitchen Amcookin up a D7roast,
AmOr vegemite on D7toast, just Gyou and me, a cup
of tea.
Later on we’ll Emsettle down and Ammull upon the D7porch,
And Amwatch the D7possums Gplay.
3. There’s a CSafeway on the corner, and a GWoolworths down the
street.
And a D7New World’s just been opened, where they Gregulate the heat.
But I’d Ctrade them all tomorrow, For a Gsimple bush retreat,
Where the D7kookaburras Gcall.
4. GSome people like their Emhouses with Amfences all a D7round,
AmOthers live in D7mansions and Gsome beneath the
ground.
But me I like the Embush you know, with Amrabbits running a D7round,
And a Ampumpkin D7vine out the Gback.
I AM AUSTRALIAN
CHORUS
DWe are one - but we are AmaDny,
and from Bmall the Alands on earth we Dcome,
We share a dream - and sing with Gone Dvoice,
GI Aam - Bmyou Aare - we Gare AusAtraDlian.
1. I Dcame from the dream time, from
the Gdusty red soil plains,
I
Bmam the ancient heart the Gkeeper Aof the Dflame,
I
stood upon the rocky shore, I Gwatched the Atall ships Bmcome,
For
Dforty thousand Emyears I'd been the Gfirst AusAtraDlian.
2. I Dcame upon the prison ship, bowed Gdown by iron chains,
I
Bmcleared the land, endured the
lash, and Gwaited Afor the Drains.
I'm
a settler, I'm a farmer's wife, on a Gdry and Abarren Bmrun,
A
Dconvict, then a Emfree man, I beGcame - AusAtraDlian.
3. DI'm the daughter of a digger, who
Gsought the mother lode,
The
Bmgirl became a woman, on the Glong and Adusty Droad.
I'm
a child of the depression, I Gsaw the Agood times Bmcome.
I'm
a Dbushie, I'm a Embattler, I Gam AusAtraDlian.
CHORUS
4. DI'm a teller of stories, I'm a Gsinger of songs,
I
am BmAlbert Namatjira, I Gpaint the Aghostly gums,
I
am Clancy on his horse, I'm GNed Kelly Aon the Bmrun,
I'm
the one who waltzed Emmatilda, I Gam AusAtraDlian.
5. DI'm the hot wind from the
desert, I'm the Gblack soil of the plains,
I'm
the Bmmountains and the valleys,
I'm the dGrought and Aflooding Drains,
I
am the rock, I am the sky, the Grivers Awhen they Bmrun,
The
Dspirit of this Emgreat land, I Gam AusAtraDlian.

EmI took my troubles down to Madame A7Rue.
EmYou know that gypsy with the A7gold capped tooth
GShe’s got a pad down on 34th and Vine,
A7Selling little bottles of B7Love Potion Number EmNine.
EmI told her that I was a A7flop with chicks.
EmI’ve been that way since 19 A756.
She looked at my palm and she made a magic sign.
A7She said what you need is B7Love Potion Number EmNine.
She A7bent down and turned around and gave me a wink.
She said F#mI’m gonna make it up right here in the sink.
It A7smelled like turpentine, and looked like Indian ink.
I B7held my nose, I closed my eyes, I took a drink!
EmI didn’t know if it was A7day or night.
EmI started kissing every A7thing in sight.
But Cwhen I kissed a cop down on G34th and Vine.
He Ambroke my little bottle of B7Love Potion Number EmNine.

And

They

We

our cotton bales and didn't say a Gthing.
CHORUS

'em by su'prise
If

fire our musket till we Glooked
'em in the eyes
We

Then
we opened up with squirrel guns and Greally
gave 'em ... Well -
2ND CHORUS
Yeah! Gthey ran through the briars and they ran
through the brambles
And they ran through the bushes where a D7rabbit couldn't Ggo
They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't
catch 'em
On down the Mississippi to the D7Gulf of MexiGco.
We Gfired
our cannon till the Cbarrel
melted down
So
we D7grabbed
an alligator and we Gfought
another round
We
filled his head with cannonballs and Cpowdered
his behind
And
D7when
we touched the powder off, the G'gator
lost his mind.

GHome, D7home
on the Grange,
Where the deer and the A7antelope D7play;
Where Gseldom is heard a disCcouraging word
And the Gskies are not D7cloudy all Gday.
2. Where the Gair is so pure, the Czephyrs
so free,
The Gbreezes
so A7balmy and D7light,
That I Gwould not exchange my Chome on the range
For Gall
of the D7cities so Gbright.
3. How Goften at night when the Cheavens are bright
With the Glight from the A7glittering
D7stars
I Gstood

If their Gglory exceeds D7that

DShow me the way to go home,
I'm Gtired
and I want to go to Dbed.
I had a little drink about an hour ago
And it went A7right to my head, (or it's gone straight to my head)
No Dmatter
where I roam,
On Gland
or sea or Dfoam,
You will always hear me singing this
song
A7Show me the way to go Dhome.
If you Dever go across the sea to A7Ireland
Then maybe at the closing of your Dday
You will sit and watch the moon rise over GCladdagh
And A7see the sun go down on Galway DBay
Just to Dhear again the ripple of the A7trout stream
The women in the meadows making Dhay
And to sit beside a turf fire in the Gcabin
And A7watch the barefoot gosoons at their Dplay.
For the Dbreezes blowing over the seas from A7Ireland
Are perfumed by the heather as it Dblows
And the women in the uplands diggin' Gpraties
A7Speak a language
that the strangers do not Dknow
For the Dstrangers came and tried to teach us A7their way
They scorn'd us just for being what we Dare
But they might as well go chasing after Gmoonbeams
Or A7light a penny candle from a Dstar.
And if Dthere is going to be a life A7hereafter
And somehow I am sure there's going to Dbe
I well ask my God to let me make my Gheaven
In A7that dear land across the Irish Dsea.

I'm A7gonna take another stroll down Dtown

Sometimes I have

DHeartaches by the D7number, a Glove that I can't E7win...

In
a Gcavern, in a canyon, Excavating for a D7mine,
Dwelt a Cminer, forty-Gniner,
And his D7daughter ClemenGtine.
Refrain:
Oh my Gdarling, oh my darling,
Oh my darling ClemenD7tine
You are Clost and gone foGrever,
Dreadful D7sorry, ClemenGtine.
GLight she was, and like a fairy, And her shoes
were number D7nine,
Herring Cboxes without Gtopses,
Sandals D7were for ClemenGtine.
GDrove she ducklings to the water, Ev'ry morning
just at D7nine,
Hit her Cfoot against a Gsplinter,
Fell in D7to the foaming Gbrine.
GRuby lips above the water, Blowing bubbles soft
and D7fine,
But alCas, I was no Gswimmer, Neither D7was my ClemenGtine.
GIn a churchyard near the canyon, Where the myrtle
boughs en D7twine,
Grow the roses in their Gposies, Ferti D7lised by ClemenGtine.
GThen, the miner, forty-niner, Soon began to fret
and D7pine,
Thought he Coughter join his Gdaughter,
So he's D7now with ClemenGtine.
GIn my dreams she still doth haunt me, Robed in
garments soaked with D7brine,
Then she Crises from the Gwaters,
And I D7kiss my ClemenGtine.
GHow I missed her, how I missed her, How I missed
my Clemen D7tine,
Til I kissed Cher little Gsister, And for D7got
my ClemenGtine.
In
DDublin's fair city, where the A7girls
are so pretty,
I Dfirst set my eyes on sweet AMolly Malone,
As she Dpushed her wheel barrow, A7Through streets broad and narrow,
Crying Dcockles Gand Dmussels a Glive, Da A7live, DOh!
Chorus:
DAlive, alive, A7Oh! Alive, alive, Oh!
Crying Dcockles Gand Dmussels Ga Dlive, a A7live, DOh!
DShe was a fishmonger, but it sure was no wonder,
DFor so were her father and mother before,
DAnd they each pushed their wheel-barrow,
Through streets broad and narrow,
DCrying cockles and mussels alive, alive, DOh!
DShe died of a fever, and no one could save her,
DAnd that was the end of sweet Molly Malone;
DHer ghost wheels her barrow,
Through streets broad and narrow,
DCrying cockles and mussels alive, alive, DOh!

An Emold cowpoke went
riding out one Gdark
and windy day;
U Empon a ridge he rested
as he Gwent along his B7way,
When Emall at once a mighty
herd of red-eyed cows he saw,
A- Cplowin' through the Amragged
skies and Emup a cloudy draw.
Refrain:
Yip-pie-ya- Gaye, yip-pie-yi- Emo,
Cghost riders Amin the Emsky.
EmTheir
brands were still on fire and Gtheir
hooves were made of steel,
Their Emhorns wuz black
and shiny and their Ghot breath he could B7feel;
A Embolt of fear
went through him as they thundered through the sky,
For he Csaw the riders Amcomin'
hard and he Emheard their mournful cry.
Repeat Refrain:
EmTheir
faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred, Their Gshirts
all soaked with sweat;
They're Emridin' hard to catch
that herd, but Gthey ain't B7caught 'em yet;
They've Emgot to ride forever
in that range up in the sky,
On Chorses snortin' Amfire,
as they Emride on, hear their cry.
Repeat Refrain:
EmAs
the riders loped on by him, he Gheard one call his
name;
"If you Emwant to save your
soul from hell a' Gridin' on B7our range,
Then Emcowboy change your
ways today or with us you will ride,
A- Ctryin' to catch the AmDevil's
herd a Emcross these endless skies."
Repeat Refrain:
by Jimmy Dean Spoken with rhythm:
GEvery morning at the mine you could see him arrive
He Cstood six-foot six and weighed two
forty-five
D7Kinda broad at the shoulders and narrow at
the hip
GEverybody knew D7you didn't Ggive no lip to Big John
C(Big John) D7(Big John) GBig D7Bad GJohn (Big John)
Nobody seemed to know where John called home
He just drifted into town and stayed all alone
He didn't say much kinda quiet and shy
And if you spoke at all you just said hi to Big John
Somebody said he came from New Orleans
Where he got in a fight over a Cajun Queen
And a crashing blow from a huge right hand
Sent a Louisiana fellow to the Promised Land Big John
C(Big John) D7(Big John) GBig D7Bad GJohn (Big John)
Then came the day at the bottom of the mine
When a timber cracked and men started crying
Miners were praying and hearts beat fast
And everybody thought that they'd breathed their last 'cept John
Through the dust and the smoke of this man made hell
Walked a giant of a man that the miners knew well
Grabbed a sagging timber and gave out with a groan
And like a giant Oak tree just stood there alone Big John
C(Big John) D7(Big John) GBig D7Bad GJohn (Big John)
With all of his strength he gave a mighty shove
Then a miner yelled out there's a light up above
And twenty men scrambled from a would-be grave
And now there's only one left down there to save Big John
With jacks and timbers they started back down
Then came that rumble way down in the ground
And smoke and gas belched out of that mine
And everybody knew it was the end of the line for Big John
C(Big John) D7(Big John) GBig D7Bad GJohn (Big John)
Now they never reopened that worthless pit
They just placed a marble stand in front of it
These few words are written on that stand
At the bottom of this mine likes a big big man Big John
DAmazing grace how Gsweet the Dsound
That saved a wretch like A7me
I Donce was lost but Gnow am Dfound
Was blind but A7now I Dsee
D'Twas grace that taught my Gheart to Dfear
and grace my fears re A7lieved
How Dprecious did that Ggrace a Dppear
the hour I A7first be Dlieved
DThrough many dangers, Gtoils and Dsnares
I have already A7come
D"Tis grace hath brought me Gsafe thus Dfar
and grace will A7lead me Dhome
DWhen we've been there ten Gthousand Dyears
Bright shining as the A7sun
DWe've no less days to Gsing God's Dpraise
than when we A7first be Dgun
DBusted flat in Baton Rouge, headin for the trains,
Feelin nearly faded as my A7jeans.
Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained,
Took us all the way to New DOrleans.
Took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana
And was blowin sad while Bobby sang the Gblues,
With them windshield wipers slappin time and
DBobby clappin hands we finally
Asang up every song that driver Dknew.
GFreedom’s just another word for Dnothin left to lose,
And Anothin ain’t worth nothin but it’s Dfree,
GFeelin good was easy, lord, when DBobby sang the blues,
And A7buddy, that was good enough for Dme,
A7Good enough for me and my Bobby McDGee.
DFrom the coalmines of Kentucky to the California sun,
Bobby shared the secrets of my A7soul,
Standin right beside me through everythin I done,
And every night she kept me from the Dcold.
Then somewhere near Salinas, lord, I let her slip away,
She was lookin for the love I hope she’ll Gfind,
Well I’d trade all my tomorrows for a Dsingle yesterday,
A7Holdin Bobby’s body close to Dmine.
GFreedoms just another word for Dnothin left to lose,
And Anothin left was all she left to Dme,
GFeelin good was easy, lord, when DBobby sang the blues,
And A7buddy, that was good enough for Dme.
A7Good enough for me and Bobby McDGee.

But the Fbroken heart
will Amken no Dmsecond spring a Fgain, G7
Tho' the Cwoeful may Amcease frae their Dmgrie G Cving.
Chorus
AmWhat shall we do with a drunken sailor?
GWhat shall we do with a drunken sailor?
AmWhat shall we do with a drunken sailor?
CEar-lye Gin the Ammorning?
AmHooray, an' up she rises,
GHooray, an' up she rises,
AmHooray, an' up she rises,
CEar-lye Gin the Ammorning.
Put him in the longboat 'till he's sober...
Keep him there and make him bail 'er...
Give him a dose of salt and water...
Shave his belly with a rusty razor...
Pull out the plug and wet him all over...

Transposition is when you
move something from one key to another.
The easiest way to transpose
is to have a listing of the notes of all the major scales in front of you (as
shown in the chart below).
Let's say that you have a
chord progression of C - F - G,
and you want to transpose it to the key of A from the key of C. You would go to
the C major scale in the chart (below) and see that C is the I degree, F is the
IV degree, and G is the V degree. Now you must go to the A major scale and see
that the I degree is A, the IV degree is D, and the V degree E. So what you
would do is play an A - D - E progression instead of a C - F - G progression.
Note: If the chord is a Cmaj7
then you would change it to an Amaj7. The same applies for any other type of
chord.
