Am looking for lyrics and music to "Welcome, Welcome, Emigrante" and
"Seeds of Brotherhood." She was so-oo-o ahead of her time. Thank you
to Little Hawk for your posts. I didn't know that Buffy got
surprise me though--what else is new! I have all her old albums.
However, I will never figure out the chords myself. Hope some of you
more talented people will get ahold of her music, and bring it back!!!
to the world because we need it, that's what folk music is all about.

"The Buffy Sainte-Marie Songbook" ((Grosset & Dunlap, NY, 1971) has both those songs, and 58 others (words, music, chords and background, and photos)

So, Margaret, can you scan or something? Type in lyrics with chords added the word before the change or something?

Yeah, see if you can get "The Buffy Sainte-Marie Songbook". You might find it on Ebay. It's absolutely full of the info you are looking for, and full of great pictures too.

Thank you so much for the info. I didn't think about a songbook. Why, I don't know. Something got left out of my initial post. I mentioned that she had gotten banned by the FBI, spied on etc. I said that didn't surprise me. I hope she writes some more incredible right-on songs in the near future. We need her voice now.

Does anyone here have chords/tabs for Buffy's version of "Wynken, Blynken & Nod"? Her version is very different from the one done by, for example, Donovan... I have only ever heard it when she performed it on Sesame Street in the mid-70's, and the clip is now up on YouTube:

Gosh I love Buffy. When I saw her at Clearwater a coupla years ago, she blew me away- and had the crowd on their feet.

Does anyone know if I can find "The Dream Tree" somewhere, chords and lyrics. (that album of hers was long lost by me in a sad basement flood) I don't think she does that song anymore, but it's so beautiful.

(I think she preceded it on the album by: God is Alive, Magic is Afoot" another great one.

Its an answer to an old question, but in just case anyone new is looking for it....

The songbook "Rise Up Singing" has the chords for Wynken, Blynken and Nod in her style and many other well known song chords and lyrics (about 1200) by numerous artists in many genres.
