No cotton,but we do plenty of wool

I`m with you on that idea.
Although only if we see USDNBW here on other forums.
I think we need to support people who contribute.

Christmas message to Chordians

Bring it on Bill

it seems many of the covers for SOTM are coming from
the chordie songwriters,so may as well support them by picking
their original songs as SOTM.

Great idea picking an original!!!!!

Yeah go for it,i think the talking over a few chords would work really well.
looking forward to hearing what u do to it.
I do the talking thing often because i can`t sing,sometimes it kinda works.
hey why be a slave to rules eh?

I see we`re all starting to think about christmas.
i may have posted this in the past but here it is again as it`s a xmas song.
thought i`d better write a nz xmas song as we have xmas in summer.
although we seem to end up singing winter songs,i guess thats tradition?
hope it gets you in the mood.
Also many many thanks for your support on my last `ramble` thingy.
I had a blast doing it,i just said whatever came into my head.
As with other contributions if it ain`t supported people stop contributing.

You`re in the right place to put your songs.
I had a play of this,it works real well.
I left the C out every third line just to add variety.
then every 5th line i repeated the last few words of the previous line
using Em  then C.
You`ll get heaps of good ideas from other Chordians
Welcome, please join the conversations.

Well done Roger.
Good to see someone having a crack at CSOM

You asked for it you devils for punishment.
Thanks for comments crazy people your taste in humour is questionable!
I`ve just done an off the cuff Ramble on soundcloud,i put it under` Chat`section
as i`m not sure what the hell it is?
Unlike a song a joke either works or it DON`T.
