GUEST,harpgirl	Lyr/Chord Req: Osceola's Last Words (Will McLean) (36)	RE: Lyr/Chord Req: Oceola's Last Words	31 Jul 06
With all due respect, JHH I always wonder when musicians ask for both chords and words, if they have ever heard the tune? One hearing should usually suffice to pick up the general melody of any folk song. Will was not known for melodic or chordal complexity...With a minute to spare I can hear it in three chords only, about Will's speed... He was a brilliant backroads poet, but also a misogynistic, drunken arsonist... When I get time away from essay writing, I'll call Will's last buddy on the planet... Doug Gauss, for his chords....
