It's All good! I agree that the artist's should be responsible too and use common sense when
posting their songs. If anybody writes a song with offensive language they should clean it up
before posting it, or if someone wants to read it unaltered, they could send it to them via e-mail.
I personally try not to write offensive language in my songs cause I see no reason to write like
that. There are clever ways to write and get your message across without using offensive
language. I still believe in freedom of speech, but use common sense when posting your songs.
Actually I ran across a song a short while back in the songwriting section called "At The Bottom
Of The Hill" that had the F-word in it, so you might want to look thru there and pull it.

Roger,
I'm working on recording all my songs that I've posted. I think I'm just gonna sit down, just me and my guitar and do a rough live recording, so everyone can get an idea how my songs go.
I'm not sure which site I want to upload them to. There's a lot of good sites! I'm registered as
an artist at myspace, but I'm considering registering with soundclick also. either way, as soon
as I get them recorded and uploaded, I'll let everyone know. I hope my explanation of those
chords helped. thanks for the kind words.

I agree! bass tabs would be a very good idea.

Thanks KAP54,
As you can tell by my songs, I really like the Am/G chord, 3X2013. Simple to play. The Cmaj9/B
I took from a Bob Marley song. Also simple to play x20010. Just walk down from C to Cmaj9/B
to D7.

etc_04,
You are correct, 'She Talks To Angels' is in open E. I like open tunings, but find it a bit frustrating
To retune every time I want to play 'She Talks To Angels' or any other song thats open tuning.
Drop D is a lot easier to get to since all you have to do is drop your top string down one whole
step. I have seen bands play 'She Talks To Angels" In Standard tuning in bars, so it's possible
to play it without retuning!

Thats cool, just wanted to know. would it be feasible if one signed up as an artist?
                                                                                                                 getfiddle

Yeah, and why would a person want to copyrite material that someone else is going to have total
control over. Thats doesn't make sense. What good does it do any artist to have a contract with a corp. that in the end is going to have more control over your material than the artist them selfs.
If you ask me their the biggest thieves!!  I've read plenty of interviews with artist who have said them selfs that they were ripped off by record companies. And as far as Metallica goes, I see where their coming from on recorded material, but tab? Half of the tab on the web is not correct anyway. I can't tell you how many tabs I've had to correct in order to play the song right!!! I'm sorry but big corporations are the SCUM of the earth. The majority of them do more ripping
off than they do good. And no one, I MEAN NO ONE can say they have payed for everything they have downloaded off the internet! Anyone who says they have is a liar. TVlinks.com got shut down for hosting other websites that had movies on them, they did not have any movies on their website
at all. Isn't that the same thing chordie is doing? Giving access to other websites that people take tab off of? Don't get me wrong, I love chordie! But you cannot say it's any different.

Yes, If you go to "songwriting" section you can post your own songs. But only what you have
written.

I love chordie!!!
I think chordie is the best music related site I've found on the internet. And I've been to quite a
few. I like the idea that I can share my homegrown music with other musicians, and I also enjoy
reading and putting my interpretation to other peoples music when I play them. There's alot of talent on here. Who ever came up with the idea for this website, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!
