24 Aug 02 - 03:06 PM (#770860) Subject: RE: sound of music chords and lyrics please. From: Genie moonbeam, if you have "Rise Up Singing," the lyrics and chords to "The Sound Of Music," "Do Re Mi," and "My Favorite Things" (and maybe "Edelweiss") are there. I have chords and lyrics to those four songs, and if no one posts a link to a "Sound Of Music" website soon, I'll post them or email them to you. You can reach me at geniesings@yahoo.com. Genie PS, did you try the "Filter" box (using key words from the songs or song titles) and/or a DT/Forum search? |

How do you solve a problem like Maria?
Many a thing you know you'd like to tell her
Oh, how do you solve a problem like Maria?

What will this day be like? I wonder.
I've always longed for adventure
A captain with seven children
Oh, I must stop these doubts, all these worries
The courage to serve them with reliance
So, let them bring on all their problems
Somehow I will impress them
And mind me with each step I am more certain
I have confidence in sunshine
Strength doesn't lie in numbers
It tells me all I trust I lead my heart to (Oh help!)
I have confidence in confidence alone

25 Aug 02 - 02:50 PM (#771355) Subject: RE: sound of music chords and lyrics please. From: Genie Gargoyle, a lot of people have access to Rise Up Singing without owning it. (When I go to jams and song circles, there are usually several copies there.) Also, I'm continually finding things in my Rise Up Singing book that I did not know were there. (There are so many songs in it that it's easy to overlook or forget what's there.) Anyway, this would hardly be the first time a Lyr/Chords Req. thread has yielded a reference to a songbook. But, dear Garg, bless you for posting the lyrics and chords to so many of the SOM songs! Profuse thanks! And thanks to you for the links, too, George. FWIW, as usual, the RUS chords are a little simpler than the ones you'll find in most sheet music (and the ones Gargoyle posted). E.g., "My Favorite Things," per RUS, uses only the Em chord for the first line and only the Cmaj7 chord for the second line. I play it that way all the time and it sounds fine to me (although I can 'hear' it with the E9, too). Genie |
25 Aug 02 - 03:04 PM (#771362) Subject: RE: sound of music chords and lyrics please. From: Genie Moonbeam, here are the Edelweiss lyrics in the DT, including a German translation. Also, here is a previous thread " Lyr/Chords Req: My Favorite Things." It gives the RUS version of the chords. Genie

26 Aug 02 - 01:54 PM (#771820) Subject: RE: sound of music chords and lyrics please. From: SharonA I didn't know what "table d'hôte" (from "The Lonely Goatherd") means, so I looked it up. Here's the definition from this page – http://www.foodtv.com/terms/tt-r2/0,4474,423,00.html: Definition: [tah-buhl DOHT] This French term literally means "the table of the host." On restaurant menus, however, table d'hôte refers to a complete meal of several courses for the price of the entrée. See also à la carte; prix fixe. |
