Some more lovely original material.

The chords for this would be brilliant if you could Ken. No matter if you dont want to.

[KenMiddletonUkulele]

Thanks. I've just put the chords (as far I can tell) in the info box. I've not included the intros, I'm afraid. They change each time.

[KenMiddletonUkulele]

Thanks very much.

Thank you, Deach.

[casetone2514]

Nice poem Ruth and a great improv. Ken

[KenMiddletonUkulele]

Thank you, Tony.

Are you serious about 5477 songs that start that way? No wonder I thought it was a common start.

[casetone2514]

I checked the Rod index and it says that 5477 songs have fair thee well as part of the first line. I haven't checked the results but I'm guessing a lot of them will be variants of the same songs - I know of about a two dozen variants of Fair thee well Eniiskellin on the Roud index, for example. But yes, that's the number it came up with.

[ruth7784]

Thank you Tony :-) x

[Rouyome]

[ruth7784]

Thank you Bradlands :-D I've just looked up Emily, thank you for introducing me to her work! lol X

[KenMiddletonUkulele]

She's a terrific poet: "You read your Emily Dickinson, and I my Robert Frost" (Paul Simon).

[KYOTOZOOM]

Excellent !! Of course 5stars!!
