When I said the words play and lead you appear to have misunderstood.

See, this is how to play a bar chord. Say, got a doghouse bass in the house?

Choosing the right size guitar depends on the "arm's" reach; I told you I needed a bigger one!

Ode to Labrador

Dear land of mountains, woods and snow,
Labrador, our Labrador.
God's noble gift to us below,
Labrador, our Labrador.
Thy proud resources waiting still,
Their splendid task will soon fulfill,
Obedient to thy Maker's will,
Labrador, our Labrador

Thy stately forests soon shall ring,
Labrador, our Labrador.
Responsive to the woodsman's swing,
Labrador, our Labrador.
And mighty floods that long remained,
Their raging fury unrestrained,
Shall serve the purpose God ordained,
Labrador, our Labrador.

We love to climb thy mountains steep,
Labrador, our Labrador.
And paddle on thy waters deep,
Labrador, our Labrador.
Our snowshoes scar thy trackless plains,
We seek no city streets nor lanes,
We are thy sons while life remains,
Labrador, our Labrador.

(that last was the lyrics of the Labrador anthem)The lyrics were written by Dr. Harry L. Paddon, ca. 1927. The tune is traditionally that of O Tannenbaum, but several alternatives have been written. [Wallace J.McLean]

Why is it that when I want walkies he's nowhere to be found, but as soon as I pick up my guitar he's looking over my shoulder!

here's a retriever song I learned from my paw:

Oh going to the well for a pail of water
FETCHING it back to make some tea
Well she fell under and I fell over
And all the game was above her knee
