Search this siteSongs

Contents Page

Here is a selection of songs (and one monologue). The songs are taken from my own songbooks, (and maybe some I've come across and like that you might not find elsewhere). I put in additional songs from time to time.means a song has been put on the website within the last few weeks. I've set up another site where I've copied over most of these songs and some others besides - with sound files too, so you can hear what they sound like.

New songs: A Dreadful DisasterOver the edge of the world

A few songs have the tunes written out, but mostly it's chords and words. (Upper case letters are Major chords, lower case are Minor - ie A = A Major, a = a minor.)

If you want the tunes, I've now put sound files of some of these on the other website, the Moving Finger Songbag. (And I've got together a wordy but basic Do it yourself guide to putting music on the net.. And there is a similar one on putting songs on CD, which I've now done with a few of mine.

If that's too much technology, drop us an email, we'll see what we can do.
