Tall Tale Songs
You can certainly sing the songs from Tall Tales of the Wild West (And a Few Short Ones) without accompaniment. In fact, we hope you do! But here are some suggested chords to use should you be interested. Because of copyright restrictions, I can not include the entire set of lyrics here. Sorry.
The backslash marks indicate the number of measures for you should stay on that chord
On Top of My Donkey (in the key of G, three beats to a measure)
You'll want to begin strumming on G even though the lyrics begin on C.
