The short answer is "no" there is not way to do a conversion. However, from experience, the archaic Do Re Mi system is cumbersome and not easy to use. All my students here in Portugal, where solfeggio system is used, have said how much easier the modern A, B, C notation is to use once learnt. So I would suggest time spent the newer system is time well spent,

Grah. Snap!! I got 13 and 15 wrong too. Being partially deaf through years of shooting as a youngster, I was pleased to get such a good result.

I always keep some sets of D'Addario EJ38H for my Nashville tuned guitars (I now have two Nashville tuned, two standard tuned and one 12er in acoustic guitars).

A friend was selling this mid 90's Fender DG-4CE NAT electro-acoustic. There are a couple of scratches on it but it is not bad. I straightened the neck, lowered the bridge, oiled the fret board, fitted new strings (Nashville) now it plays easily and sounds great. I am very pleased with my buy. Roger

Chordie is a free site. There are no charges for membership; there were none in 2009 when you joined and there are still none in 2022 so I have no idea what you are talking about. However if you wish to cancel your membership I can easily do so. Please confirm that you wish me to do so.

Regards, Roger.

I have messaged Per and he stated: "The domain chordie.com was registered Oct 25 in 2002. So it does actually have a 20 year birthday soon."

upyerkilt (Ken) 'Unofficial king of Scotland' is the earliest recorded Member on 4th March 2006 but I am sure that Chordie has been around longer than that.

The only way this can happen is if you have the automatic translate active in your browser.

I had the same problem a while ago and found that the buttons on the right hand side of the screen were not functional. I had my browser window set at 125%, reducing back to 100% cured the problem, so maybe you are experiencing the same.

Give this a try and let us know if it is successful.

Hi Jim,

You are correct about the songbook limit so you have to create extra ones when you reach the limit.

Hi datsunrobbie,

There is a limit of 100 songs per song book so you have dome well to get 130 in it. you need to open a new book for more songs.

There is not a song save button, we have a 'ADD' to Songbook button so it looks like you are not doing it right. However, if pressing the 'ADD' button does not work please clear the cookies from your system as they can sometimes affect the correct operation of Chordie.

Ooops look like I am in error. Not ever hearing Joe's song before I thought it was an original but from Jan's comment I guess I was wrong.

Roger     

I enjoyed both Jan's adaption of a classic and Joe's original song. Great stuff, well done both of you.

Roger     

Thanks guys for the encouragement.

Richard the song was originally written in French, translated and recorded by Peters and Lee and spent a week at number one in the UK charts in July 1973 (it was there only number one recording).

Roger     

OK, I had a go. I rewrote the lyrics to the Peters and Lee song:

Nice one and an original especially for the return of Jan. Fantastic!

Hi Kateskw,

There is not 'How Deep Is Your Love' by the BeeGees in the Chordie library, only versions by Dru Hill and by Portrait. so I have no idea where you are finding the song.
