Melodeon tune - Parson's Farewell

[mothxal]

This is such a fun song. I found it in a book with guitar studies and it's one of those pieces that has a different character for every speed you play it on, but of course the faster the better. :)

@mothxal Nah, this was way too fast...

[mothxal]

@lostbusker perhaps if you try dancing to it - I wouldn't want to be in those shoes!

[musichazz]

is that a mandolin in the background? :D

[jr39271]

Do you know anywhere i can get the parsons farewell sheet music for a D/G melodeon?

[labradornl]

[EVANGtv]

[MissPickletoes]

Great music!

[HectorAwol]

I'd have to agree! Great music and very nice sounds!

[AEngleSaex]

Wow! really nioce playing...............but i wouldn't like to be the dancer trying to keep up!

[alpenfrauchen]

@AEngleSaex

[chazzers77]

LOVE this song you are a great player

[nickdent1971]

cant get the bass either. not sure that is a dg for this reason

[lostbusker]

Hello,

It is a DG. The chords are roughly Am, G, Am, Em for the A part and for the B part: C, C, C, G, G, Am, Em,G, Am. I have the 3rds out of the chords so can use the A as an Am. If you have 3rds in you can play just A bass note, or add the C chord. Hope that helps.

[Teddykinso]

help, i have the tune sorted but whats the bass?

[TomE1248]

if you have no removeable 3rds you can get Am by mixing the A bass with the C chord

[Supernathje]

I can play that song too!!!!!!!!

[CyberSmudger]

Bravo! Well played! Now, tidy up your room...
