Subject: ADD Chords: Tied Up in a Sack (The Bundling Song)
Steve
I had the pleasure of meeting G + E Pratt after one of their gigs in Birmingham back in the early 1970's.
I had the cheek to ask G if he would teach me how to play the song. Such a kind lovely man, he obliged.
He played it in 'C'
This is the chord sequence he showed me.
I hope it gives you as much pleasure as it has given me.
(if you want to know the guitar pick just email me)

Tied up in a sack, tied up in a sack
