I was wondering, do you have this song tabbed out? If so, any chance I could have a copy? I have found the chords online, but they do not sound right. I can't seem to buy the sheet music for love nor money, either :/

Thanks very much :o)

Wonderful, beautiful, haunting. I loved it. Thank you for posting. I wish I had a fraction of your talent. Truly, truly beautiful

This is without doubt my favorite song and you play it exquisitely!!! Thank you so much for posting this!!!
p.s. I have searched tirelessly for this guitar part but have never been able to find one with the picking pattern. Is there any advice or direction you might me able to lend?

That Guitar neck is BEAUTIFUL.
Custom?

@ThisTooShallPass314 No, the guitar is a Cort Earth 1200. It's surprising, isn't it - relatively low-price range guitar but with a fantastic finish to it, and very reasonable tone. I prefer a mellow sound on a guitar and one of the nicest guitars I've played is a Fender which I bought for my daughter for 200 or so Canadian dollars. Price or brand name isn't everything :o)

Still one of the most real and touching folk songs ever!

@tunehex I agree - along with John Prine's Hello In There another of my really big favourites, and probably Ralph McTell's Streets of London.

I'm not quite sure why you credit Joan Baez on your cover. I don't think her version was far off Phil Och's. She certainly popularized it, but it's all Ochs, and pure Ochs. Nice, though.

@karinablacktie Thanks. As you say yourself, she popularized it. I tend to credit the person I learned the song from as well as the songwriter. Quite apart from that I didn't actually hear Phil Ochs's version or any other of his songs until after I posted this. A inexcusable gap in my musical background which has thankfully now been filled :o) To my knowkedge or at least at my time Phil Ochs was that well-known over here.
