Links to lyrics are chords are ok to put in the forum but actual lyrics and chords are not. I had to delete the content Ipmalapad had here due to potential legal issues.(i.e., copywrights)

Chordie does not host songs. It is a search engine that formats songs it finds on the internet. There are several reasons for this (most of them legal).

Please read FAQs on chordie's 'Resources' page for a longer explanation.

This also means that NO LYRICS can be posted in this forum.

You are however allowed to post links to songs on the internet, and you are allowed to post one-liners explaining how to play a song.

Any posting of lyrics may result in Chordie having to shut down! I will therefore automatically delete the account (and the songbook) of persons violating this rule, as well as ban their domain from accessing Chordie.

Please report any violation of this rule immediately!

Upside Down by Jack Johnson

It's actually quite basic, placing ones thumb on the back of the neck, halfway to 2/3rds of the way down (towards the ground) makes the reach more easily attainable and enables more psi(strength) to be profeciently applied to the fretboard, thus enabling the player to execute chords more effectively. Don't get intimidated or turned off by a suggestion to make life easier for you as a guitarist!! I'm smiling as I write this............

My first song that I learned complete was Derek and The Dominos "Bell Bottom Blues". It never has sounded 1/1,000,000 as good as this;

My most challenging song to date is probably Django Reinhart's "Manoir De Mes Reves"

Not Fade Away by Buddy Holly (covered by Rolling Stones and Grateful Dead)

Have to agree with Jerome here on this one. For a beginner, which your lessons are targeted to, you must establish solid, correct technique. While using the thumb to reach certain bass notes or to assist in string muting may be acceptable and practical for an experienced player it's a BIG no-no for a beginner. I teach guitar(and have 25 years playing) and I place great importance on thumb placement behind the neck. This is one the most important basic fundamentals a beginning guitarist should adopt. Nice gesture with your gift of lesson, a tiny bit of tweeking is needed though.

Hello Jeff,

Sweet little ditty, a great nighty-night time song. Thanks for sharing, my 2yr old and I really enjoyed. Nice mellow vocals, guitar picking, and smooth organ. A dreamy mix......

Zurf,

My decision to leave the NRV was 100% financial. My family and I try to get up there about twice a year to visit my family. Most of my kin live there minus one sister who lives in Nashville. We really enjoy visiting with her too! My family and I dream of moving back to the NRV within the next 5 years. My wife is almost finished with her EED(Org.Leadership) and upon completion she hopes to become a professor/advisor/administrator at Va.Tech or Radford. It'll be tough leaving FL simply because of the amount of work I get down here playing music and the $ is surprisingly good. Maybe we can do what 75% of the people down here do and have dual residences?!?!

I did play with "Steady Rollin' Bob Margolin"!!! South Main Cafe in Blacksburg was our common venue. Bob is one of the coolest people on the face of the earth. He's still pumping out fantastic stuff and his live shows are better than ever. Are you familiar with "The Yams From Outer Space"? If you are I've got some intersting stuff to tell you about them. My band "DejaVoodoo" played such venues as; Lucky's downtown Radford, Hokie House and Buddy's in Blacksburg and a few others that I can't recall the names of? It was a while back ('87-'91) My band also played gigs with such bands as "Electric Woodshed", "The Kind", "The Locomotives", and Greg Albert's "Freak Show." Ah....the good ole days!
