Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Feather Ben (Peter Bowen)
Well, I am unsure whether true to life is the exact criterion I'd apply when picking a song to learn. I suppose it's as good as any, but I am still considering whether or not "not true to life" is a reasonable criterion for not learning a song. Actually, all I wanted was the chords - - mainly because I'm too lazy to work 'em out myself. If nobody's got them, I guess I'll figure them out and post them. (Guest 999, it's on Return of the Travelin' Lady by Rosalie Sorrels, and All Used Up by Utah Phillips.) While its veracity may be in question, I still find it's worth singing. I guess what's good enough for Sorrels and Phillips is pretty much good enough for the likes of me.
