Hi McGrath,
Ostensibly there are a lot of three-chorders but really contain more.

Neighmond,
don't know "It'll Aggravate Your Soul"...is it a folk song?

M.Ted:
I want to teach this class to introduce people to folk music.
Much of that they may or may not know but the purpose is to teach them to learn the songs. Your suggestions, "In The Pines" and "Man of Constant Sorrow" are excellent. Thank you.

The Weavers material I'm very familiar with. Many of them work. Some are more than three chords. But still a great suggestion.

Open Mike, I'm looking for song titles. The other one is about something else. It's a coincidence.

Cluin, excellent suggestions and I will include them in the list. Thanks so much.

Alice, thank you so much for your list. Really appreciated!
Give My Love To Nell (Don't know this one.)
Lightly Row   (I've seen it in beginning instruction books for instruments)
When Johnny Comes Marching Home (more than three chords)
Annie Laurie (in the bridge more than three chords)
All Through The Night (beautiful tune but more than three
Love's Old Sweet Song (more than three?)
Santa Lucia (I think that can be three) Yes!
The Lakes Of Pontchartrain (not sure about this one. Seems to me that there's some modal harmonies going on but I'll check on it.)

Thank you so much! This is exactly what I'm looking for.

Any more suggestions would be gratefully received. Particularly if it's associated with American Folk Music....Carter Family, Spirituals, etc.

Thanks so much everyone.

Frank
