Subject: Chords/Tabs Wanted From: GUEST,Matt T Date: 07 Dec 01 - 05:29 AM Hi, I recently started learning guitar, and my appetite for trying to find chord arrangements for various folk and blues songs has no bounds! However, there's some songs I'd love to play that I can't find tabs/chords for anywhere. If anyone can enlighten me, I'd be hugely grateful. The missing songs are: The Jolly Beggar (as performed by Planxty) The Flandyke Shore (as Performed by Nic Jones) The Humpback Whale (aka The Balina Whalers)(as Performed by Nic Jones) The Battle of Harlaw (as Performed by the Battlefield Band) Young Johnnie Moir (as Performed by the Battlefield Band) Man of Constant Sorrow (as featured on 'O Brother Where Art Thou?') Hard Time Killing Floor Blues (as featured on 'O Brother Where Art Thou?') I already know the lyrics to these songs thanks to countless hours of singing in the shower, I'd just love to have the guitar chords too! |

Subject: RE: Chords/Tabs Wanted From: Mark Clark Date: 07 Dec 01 - 04:52 PM BOB, Blue clickies are really simple to make. All you need are a few basic pieces in the proper sequence:
These are all run together as a single string when you enter them in a post. Everything except the words in blue must be spelled correctly and all punctuation marks and symbols must be excatly right. Still, it's really simple. The HTML stuff is always the same so you can just copy it into a post any time you want to make a blicky. The opening HTML stuff is always:
<a href=" The second bit of HTML stuff is always:
"> The closing bit of HTML stuff is always:
</a> That's all there is to it. A good way obtain the URL is to visit the site you want to reference and just copy the URL string from the top of your browser. URLs look like this:
http://www.reallygreatsite.com/maybesomethingelse Joe Offer has done a tremendous job of writing detailed descriptions on all sorts of HTML tips and published them in the Mudcat PermaThreads, good reading when you're just hangin' out. There's something for every level of experience. Try it, you'll like it. - Mark |

Subject: RE: Chords/Tabs Wanted From: Sorcha Date: 07 Dec 01 - 09:01 PM Oh, sure you will, Bob. It really isn't hard at all. There are html practice threads here where you can try, and try again (with helpful hints from Learned Persons) until you get it right. Have Glenda read the HTML portion of the FAQ thread, and she can walk you through it. We were all beginners at one point! Hell, I refused to have a computer in the house until '98, and didn't get Internet until just before Xmas '99. I'm a Luddite, I yam, I yam.......(I STILL hate vacum cleaners. If it has a cord or batteries, it's User Unfriendly!) |
Subject: RE: Chords/Tabs Wanted From: Jon Freeman Date: 07 Dec 01 - 09:17 PM I've got the Planxty version of the Jolly Beggar - not sure I can lay my hands on it but either way, I'll knock up some chords that should fit the tune tommorrow if no one else has posted here. I trust your going to learn the Wise Maid to go with it? (not that I can pick it on guitar). Bob, the best way to learn HTML is to try using it. (see sorcha's note about the practice threads). I think most people find after a few mistakes at first, things like the blue clicky become very easy. Jon |
Subject: RE: Chords/Tabs Wanted From: Jon Freeman Date: 08 Dec 01 - 11:58 AM I can't find the Planxty tape and can't remember what key they played it in although I'm pretty sure it wasn't D as I seem to remember doing something (maybe capo 2 and playing with G fingering - in other words, A) when I used to play along with the reel that followed rather than playing it the "session standard" key of D. Anyway, these chords should fit the tune and may help.
(D)It's of a jolly beggarman came (G)tripping o'er the (A7)plain
We'll (D)go no more a roving, a (G)roving in the (A7)night Jon |
Subject: RE: Chords/Tabs Wanted From: Sam L Date: 16 Mar 03 - 04:42 PM It'd be handy for me to have the printed lyrics to Hard time killing floor, if anybody has them. I can help--chords don't exactly apply, it's pretty much d min (sus4), d min7, in drop d. If you're still looking I can help you play the part, with a little tab and a few tips. Man of Constant Sorrow is good in drop d too, capo at 3 to play in so-called F. It's bluesscale-F, with a flatted 3rd and 7th, which you might want to call Fmin/7 if you're doing chords instead of the rumbly riffing stuff. |

Subject: RE: Chords/Tabs Wanted From: s&r Date: 14 Jul 06 - 04:58 PM I think the guest wants chords/tab for nic Jones music. Stu |
Subject: RE: Chords/Tabs Wanted From: JohnInKansas Date: 15 Jul 06 - 05:39 AM Naw Stu, the last guest was Nic Jones and he just stopped in to see if anyone had heard of him. The first Guest (Matt T) who wanted Nic Jones chords/tab gave up 5 years ago and got some other stuff he's using at Carnegie Hall next weekend. Or somethin' like that. John |
