RUS is one of the greatest sources of lyrics and chords that I have ever found, although some of the chords are not exactly the same as I have used. We use the book frequently whenever we sit around a kitchen with our instruments. I have a whole list of suggestions but I will keep them to a few for now.

The Weight - by The Band written by Levon Helm

Dear Abby & Souvenirs - John Prine

(a lot more Prine songs as well)

I'se The B'y - tradional Newfoundland song

more songs by Paul Simon

Wreck of The Edmond Fitzgerald - Lightfoot

Farmer's Song - Murry MacLaughlin

One thing this book has been good at is including variations of the same song such as "Garden Song", "Goodnight Irene", etc. I would like to see more of this in a second volume.
