For U.S. folk songs, there are two books that may be helpful:

Rise Up Singing
The Folksinger's Wordbook

Both have chords. Now, if you're looking for current singer-songwriter "folk," that's another matter. Thos may be hard to find.

Also, use our Filter box and put chord in the box and set the age back - you'll find lots. If there's a specific song you want chords for, start a thread.

Yes and no. Some 'Mudcat' songs have been archived and the chords have been put with the songs by either the original poster or someone else. 'Chordie' has chords. But often songs with chords just ain't posted where they're easy to find on the www.

I recently became acquainted with contemporary folk and country music. However, I have troubles in finding chords for most songs (for examples, most of those played on Wumb contemporary folk radio) on general chords sites, such as Ultimate Guitar and 911 Tabs. Is there any folk songs database on the web?
