New Songs - Pink & Jack Johnson
Two new songs added to the site today, "Who Knew" by Pink, and the excellent "Upside Down" by Jack Johnson.
Jack Johnson's songs were meant for guitar, but it's surprising how many of Pink's songs sound great with just acoustic guitar and vocals. You can find the new songs on these pages:
Pop guitar songs
Jack Johnson chord for guitar

Mew - Symmetry guitar chords and lyrics
Denmark's finest, 'Mew' are what I suppose would be classified as an 'Indie Rock' band, making what one critic called 'dreamy thunderstorm pop'
As one of my daughter's favourite bands, I've been under a little pressure to try working out chord versions of some of their songs, which to be honest is not easy. I had previously worked out and posted 'Pop song chords - She came home for Christmas', which ( I have been reminded ) was in the charts for Christmas 2003. I have had "Symmetry", which also appeared on the 2003 album "Frengers", on my "to-do" list since then also, so decided to finally tackle it as part of my May selection of songs.
I had been previously put off by finding some fairly badly transcribed 'Tab' versions of the song, and trying to work out chord versions from these. This time I just listened to the song, figured that the first chord was B flat major 7th... stuck a capo on the 1st fret and ended up with a very nice, and quite playable chord sequence - a Gmaj7 Dmaj7 riff for the verses, with D, E, Bm, A and G thrown in for the Bridge and Chorus.
According to Wikipedia, "Symmetry" features vocals from 14 year old Becky Jarrett of Georgia, USA.
I've posted the chords and lyrics for "Symmetry" to my Pop Guitar Songs page at the link below:
PJs Guitar Chords and Lyrics - Pop Songs
You can buy Mew music at CDUniverse - "Mew" Music page
The official Mew website is at: http://www.mewsite.com/ or you can check out the Mew MySpace page here.

Brendan Benson - Metarie chords and lyrics
Another requested song - and it surprised me somewhat that this is only the second Brendan Benson song I've attempted to work out. Multi-instrumentalist and Raconteur Brendan has been around for about 10 years, and has released seven albums ( 5 solo, and two with the Raconteurs, a band formed with White Stripe's Jack White in 2006 ).
I've enjoyed pretty much everthing of his I've heard, 'tho not all of it would have lent itself to working out straightforward chords, particularly for early learning guitarists, or for acoustic guitar players.
"Rock guitar songs - Metarie", which was released as an EP in 2003 can be played with fairly straightforward chords - Bm7, D, A, E and F#. There is a little riff on the E chord in the chorus involving moving the 4th finger along the 2nd, 3rd and 4th frets ( I named these E1, E2, E3, E4 rather than dig out the technically correct chord titles, as it basically comes under the heading "E riff"! ). A bit of a stretch on the poor pinky, but it's good exercise for that under-used digit!!
The chords for "Metarie" are now on my Rock Guitar Chords page at the link below:
PJs Rock Guitar Chords and Lyrics page
Thanks to Jimmy in Sweden for the request - I think if you know the song, it will be a good one to add to your repertoire, it can sound really good once you've mastered the little chorus riff.
You can buy Brendan Benson music, and Raconteurs music, at CD Universe - Brendan Benson Music / Raconteurs Music page
Brendan's official site can be found at http://www.brendanbenson.com/ and his MySpace page, with some new songs from his up-and-coming album is at http://www.myspace.com/brendanbenson

Gabriella Cilmi - Sweet about Me chords and lyrics
At the tender age of 16, Austrialian singer-songwriter Gabriella Cilmi is something of a veteran, having signed her first US recording contract when she was just 13!
I first heard her last December, when she sang "Sweet About Me" on Later with Jools Holland.
The song has stuck in me head since, and I'm delighted to see that it is now a successful single. I think we'll be hearing much more from the talented Ms. Cilmi in the coming years.
I've worked out my version of the song chords, which you can check out at the link below:
Miscellaneous Pop guitar songs - Gabriella Cilmi 'Sweet about Me'
The official Gabriella Cilmi website can be found at: http://www.gabriellacilmi.com/ , and her music can be browsed or bought online at the link below:

Whistle Down The Wind - Tom Waits
Just been saying that I need to get working on more of the songs from the fantastic Tom Waits 'Orphans' ( Bawlers, Brawlers and Bastards ) Triple-CD, but I received a request for "Whistle Down The Wind" from the earlier (1994) "Bone Machine". I'd forgotten how good this album was, so I've been catching up.
I've worked out my playable version of the chords and lyrics to "Whistle Down The Wind", and added them to my Tom Waits page. It's a typical Tom ballad, and with my basic guitar chords you can just get away with it, though it's pretty much a piano song. I hope you'll give it a go, see how you like it.
If you are a new visitor, or haven't visited in a while, check out the more than 1,600 songs on my song chords and lyrics site
You can check out Tom's official website at : http://www.tomwaits.com/ or check out his albums online at CD Universe

Wilco - 'I am trying to break your heart' chords
Wilco have been one of those 'slow-burner' bands for me. Always quite liked them, bought the albums, but never really listened to them that often. I had posted "Jesus Etc" and "Either Way" earlier, to my Rock guitar songs page, mainly on my daughters' recommendations. But I listened to them exclusively recently while walking the pup, and have definitely 'seen the light' - I hope to work out and post enough of their songs to warrant a seperate Wilco page on the site, very soon.
Meanwhile, I have worked out my version of "I am trying to break your heart" from the somewhat controversial "Yankee Foxtrot Tango" album, and for the time being, posted it to the Misc. Rock songs page at the link below:
Rock songs - guitar chords and lyrics to I Am Trying to Break Your Heart by Wilco
Check out the official Wilco website at : http://www.wilcoworld.net/ or check out their album and singles list on their CDUniverse page
Heads up... James Todd ( of GuitarLeads ), has created a special page for my Blog and website visitors to check out free samples of DVD1 of his 5 DVD lead guitar course , with tab plus fullspeed and half-speed sound. This page will be exclusive to those clicking on the link below, or the corresponding link on my Free Guitar Chords and Lyrics website

Fratellis - Henrietta chords and lyrics
As I eagerly await the new Fratellis album "Here we Stand", I realised I hadn't included chords and lyrics for "Henrietta", the very first single from "Costello Music" ( which as regular readers will know is my favourite album from a new band for many, many years ). I had kinda held off 'cos it's one of those bouncy songs, with staccato bursts of chords, and in the key of B major. Basically the kind of song I'd have run a mile from when I was in the early learning stages.
But I've done my best with it, I transcribed it to A major ( you can put your capo on the 2nd fret if you want to play along with the song, or want to sing it in the right key ). This takes some of the sting out of it by removing some of the tricker chords - if you still have problems with the power chords (A5 etc. ) just play them as standard major chords.
So the staccato burst at the end of the pre-chorus lines could be changed from:
If you haven't already got this album you've been missing out - go get it now!! You can buy it online at this CD Universe Fratellis music link - the new album is also now available.
You should also take a look at the Fratellis official website at: http://www.thefratellis.com

So the staccato burst at the end of the pre-chorus lines could be changed from:
A5-G#5-G5-F#5 towww.guitarsongs.info/the-fratellis.htm
A-G#-G-F#
If you'r still struggling with the chord changes, just play
the A and the F# e.g.:
D E A F#
Give us a kiss and maybe we can go out
... still gives you a 'buskable' version of the song.
Obviously for your own improvement, playing the tricky
parts is something you *should* do. A song to revisit
when your range of chords and speed of change have
improved, perhaps. But it is a song to be enjoyed, so
you are excused if you want to take the simpler options
for now!
Check out my interpretation of the song at the link below:

Weezer - Pardon Me & Good Life
Finally got around to working out "Pardon Me" - it had been on my 'to do' list for months, but I was struggling with it. Think it's pretty ok now. As I hadn't posted a Weezer song for some time, I'll try to make up by posting two today!
So if you go to my Weezer song chords page: www.guitarsongs.info/weezer.htm you'll find my versions of "Pardon Me" and "Good Life" have been added.

Phoenix - "Too Young" chords
Just been in laidback mood, listening to my 'Easy Rock' selection on my trusty Zen Vision, and got to listen to some songs I hadn't heard in a long time, including 'Too Young' by French rockers Phoenix.

The best band in Cyberspace - Moeraes Fate ( was Dame )!!
Yes, I know this is meant to be a song chords blog...
This is only the second time I have posted off-topic, and once again it's a 'heads up' on the best new band I've heard in a long, long time.
Firstly, I should make it clear that I have no connection with this band whatsoever, except for the musical connection I have with all of my favourite bands.
I discovered them ( not literally! ) on MySpace some months ago, and posted a link here to an online Battle of the Bands contest, in which they were embroiled at the time - for those of you who took the time to check out the band and vote for them - many thanks. I know from the feedback that you all felt as strongly as I that these girls are going places.
For those who haven't been introduced to the phenomenon that is Dame ( update Sep 29 09 - band now called "Moeraes Fate", you can listen to four of their self-penned, 'progressive-aggressive' kickass rocking songs on their MySpace page www.myspace.com/moeraesfateband
They have now kindly sent me a link to a YouTube video montage of their performances at Lost Lounge, Missauga. Follow the link below for a taste of the high-octane, sheer exhuberance that is Moeraes Fate ( was Dame ) in concert:

Their MS blurb says 'Recommended if you like Audioslave with chunks of Iron Maiden.'. I think this is selling themselves short. I would recommend them to anyone who likes REAL rock music.
For once, a post which has nothing at all to do with my website ( there will be new song chords very soon, don't panic! ).
This is only the second time I have posted off-topic, and once again it's a 'heads up' on the best new band I've heard in a long, long time.
Firstly, I should make it clear that I have no connection with this band whatsoever, except for the musical connection I have with all of my favourite bands.
I discovered them ( not literally! ) on MySpace some months ago, and posted a link here to an online Battle of the Bands contest, in which they were embroiled at the time - for those of you who took the time to check out the band and vote for them - many thanks. I know from the feedback that you all felt as strongly as I that these girls are going places.
For those who haven't been introduced to the phenomenon that is Dame ( update Sep 29 09 - band now called "Moeraes Fate", you can listen to four of their self-penned, 'progressive-aggressive' kickass rocking songs on their MySpace page www.myspace.com/moeraesfateband
They have now kindly sent me a link to a YouTube video montage of their performances at Lost Lounge, Missauga. Follow the link below for a taste of the high-octane, sheer exhuberance that is Moeraes Fate ( was Dame ) in concert:

REM - Supernatural Superserious chords and Lyrics
REM released "Accelerate", their 14th studio album, earlier this year. After the general disappointment of fans with its predecessor "Around the Sun", "Accelerate" marks a return to a more guitar-based sound. Which suits me just fine!
REM - Guitar Chords for 'Supernatural Superserious', the first single from the album is definitely reminiscent of earlier albums, I think it sounds as if it could have been on 'Monster'.
My chords and lyrics version of the song, suitable for either electric or acoustic guitar players is now on my chords and lyrics website, strangely enough, on the REM song chords page! I have quite a few of their songs, scroll down about halfway down the page. Check it out at the link below:

Long Way Home - Tom Waits
I've had the Tom Waits 'Orphans' Triple-CD since Christmas, so I've surprised myself with how few of the songs I've worked on since then. While the 'Bastards' ( 3rd CD of the set ) songs are unlikely to suit acoustic or rhythm guitar, there are a bunch of songs on the 'Bawlers' and even on the 'Brawlers' CDs, so I'm going to try catch up over the next while.
With this in mind, I've just added my version of the chords and lyrics to "Long Way Home" to my Tom Waits song chords page. Very playable - and you don't have to do the 'Tom' voice!! It actually has a bit of a Springsteen feel to it, much like 'Hold On' from 'Mule Variations'. See what you think of it. If you are a new visitor, or haven't visited in a while, check out the more than 1,600 songs on my song chords and lyrics site
You can check out Tom's official website at : http://www.tomwaits.com/
If you're serious about becoming a real Guitar Player, you should check out the brilliant guitar lessons course at Amazing Guitar Secrets. Click this link Amazing-Guitar-Secrets.Com to start your journey.

Regina Spektor - Samson chords and lyrics
I had previously worked out and posted chords and lyrics to "Hotel Room" from "Begin to Hope", the fourth album by New-York-based, Moscow-born Regina Spektor. I had always intended that I would work on some of the other songs from this album, but am amazed to discover that the "Hotel Room" post was in May 2007!
So - I've decided to rectify the omission, and have worked out my basic chords and lyrics version of "Samson", another great song from the album. The song is now included on my Miscellaneous Pop Guitar Songs page, which now has 221 songs. The website ( PJs Guitar Chords and Lyrics ) has chords and lyrics to 1,710 songs )
The song is in the key of B major - I have transcribed it to A major to make the chords a bit more playable for learning guitarists ( you can still play along with the CD by putting a capo on the 2nd fret ) - but I've included the version in B for the purists! You can try your hand at playing the song by clicking on the link below

Win a Dave Mustaine Guitar!!
My very good friend Chris Elmore, who you will know from the great guitar 'mini-lessons' he provides for my Guitar Tips blog and for my Guitar Chords monthly newsletter, is holding a contest with a superb Dave Mustaine guitar as the main prize. You can actually check out the guitar at this link:
http://www.guitartrader.com/Dean-Dave-Mustaine-Bolt-on-Electric-Guitar
Ok, so to win this guitar, or one of the other contest prizes, Chris wants you to submit a YouTube video of yourself performing on guitar. He explains it fully in this short video clip:
How to win the Dave Mustaine Guitar
Take a look at the video clip ( about 2 mins ) - if you think you have what it takes to impress Chris, just follow the instructions on the page, and you're on your way to bringing home an awesome guitar. Please don't be shy about this - I know Chris is not necessarily looking for someone who can replicate an existing guitar riff. If you think there is anything special you can do, this is your chance to show off your talent, and maybe bag a big prize in the process.
The link to enter the contest again is: How to win the Dave Mustaine Guitar
Regular subscribers will know that Chris is absolutely the most genuine guy in the guitar learning world. As well as regularly providing great free guitar tips for my chords and lyrics newsletter readers, he sponsored some amazing prizes for my 5 million and 10 million visitor celebrations. This contest is to celebrate the release of his latest learning program - 'Rock Methods', and runners-up in the contest will receive copies of this course. I haven't had sight of this course yet ( it won't be launched for a while ) but I know that it will be up to the standard of excellence of all of the Elmore Music learning tools.
I would encourage you to take part in this contest, show the world what you can do, and hopefully, bring home that fabulous guitar!
Meanwhile, I will be adding some songs to my chords and lyrics website which will hopefully meet your requirements.
Enjoy your music,
PJ

Cystic Fibrosis - help if you can
This is an appeal to maybe anyone who has visited my free guitar chords website and found songs they've enjoyed playing on guitar, or to any of my friends who know someone affected by CF. Having spent most of my adult life among musicians, I know they are the most generous, caring and compassionate group of people on the planet.
One of my daughters great friends, Tracie Lawlor, herself a really talented musician, sadly passed away recently from this life-threatening and life-shortening disease. The Republic of Ireland has the highest proportion of Cystic Fibrosis in the world, yet of all of the developed countries ( USA, Britain, France, etc. ) life expectancy is about nine years lower than the others. In Northern Ireland, for example, CF sufferers average life expectancy is in the early Thirties, compared with early Twenties in the Republic of Ireland. This is because of the lack of suitable facilities provided by the Irish Government for CF patients.
A fund has been created in Tracie's memory, with the aim of helping CF sufferers in her home town ( and mine ) of Wexford, Ireland. It would mean a lot to me if you would consider making a donation, however small. All money received to the fund is channeled directly to the aid of CF sufferrers.
If you can spare a few Euro, Dollars, Pounds, please take a moment and visit the Trust website at http://www.tracielawlortrust.com where you can find out more about fundraising events, and make a donation if you can.
My guitar songs website has been providing free chords and lyrics to guitar songs for musicians all over the world since 1999. I hope that you will have found it helpful in improving yourself as a guitar player. If you have, please consider giving a little something back. It could help extend someone's life.
Thanks for your attention.

Kooks 'Always where I need to be' chords
Always a bit of a nailbiter when a band you like are about to release their second Album.
I loved 'Inside In/Inside Out', the million-selling debut album by Brighton Brit-Pop-Punk-Rock band, "The Kooks", particularly "Naive" and "She Moves in her own Way". I wouldn't be quite as bowled over as I am by The Fratellis ( nervously awaiting their second offering...! ), but a great band nonetheless, and "Konk", their second album, is growing on me with every listen.
'Always where I need to be'', is the new single from "Konk", and it continues in the quirky, rocky vein of it's predecessors.
I've worked out a playable version of the song, which should be suitable for either electric or acoustic guitar and, as I already had 3 Kooks songs on my chords and lyrics website, I've now created a new 'Kooks' page, at the link below:
The Kooks - Guitar Chords and lyrics, including 'Always where I need to be'
You can buy all of the Kooks music at CDUniverse - The Kooks Music page
The Kooks official site can be found at http://www.thekooks.co.uk/ and their MySpace page is at http://www.myspace.com/thekooks

Galway Girl - chords and lyrics
Still spending much time listening to the older songs in my collection. I remember my daughter buying me the single of Steve Earle and Sharon Shannon performing Steve's "Galway Girl" as if it was yesterday - Wikipedia tells me it was from Steve's "Transcendental Blues" and Sharon (+friends)"The Diamond Mountain Session" albums - both realeased in 2000! Unbelievable!
What's even harder to believe is that I didn't put the song up on my guitar chords site at the time, it's a great song. Anyway, eight years on, and Sharon has recently recorded the song again, this time with Mundy, so I am making good the omission, and have added the song to my Folk songs guitar chords page, at the link below:
Steve Earle / Sharon Shanon / Mundy "Galway Girl" chords and lyrics
You can buy Sharon's and Steve's albums, including those mentioned above, at CD Universe - Sharon Shannon music page ~~~ Steve Earle music page

Tori Amos - "Winter" chords and lyrics
I've been in very reflective mode lately, listening to a lot of the older stuff in my CD collection. One artist who I have shamefully neglected, not having posted any of her songs on my free chords and lyrics website, is Tori Amos. Tori is widely acclaimed as having single-handedly kick-started the whole female singer-songwriter genre in the early 90's.
I have selected "Winter" from her first, and arguably best, album - Little Earthquakes - to add to my list of song chords and lyrics quota for April. You can find it on my site, PJs Guitar Chords and Lyrics, at the link below:

The Frames - Neath the Beeches chords & lyrics
Since posting Glen Hansard's "Falling Slowly" last month, I've been listening to some of the Frames older stuff quite a lot. I'd almost forgotten what a great band they are, and what a fabulous voice Glen has.
One of the 'oldies' that shows off the talents better than most is "Neath the Beeches", a haunting song from their 1999 album "Dance the Devil". I already have "Star, Star" from this album on my The Frames Guitar Songs page - hard to believe it's 9 years ago!
I've worked out fairly playable chords and lyrics to "Neath the Beeches" which you can find on my guitar chords website at the link below:

Stereophonics - It Means Nothing chords and lyrics
The Stereophonics have been belting out chart topping albums and singles for around 10 years now - Their 6th album "Pull the Pin" made it 5 No 1 albums in a row for the boys from Aberdare in South Wales.
I have worked out my interpretation of the chords and lyrics from the first single from the new album "Guitar chords to Stereophonics 'It Means Nothing'" - if you want to try your hand at playing this great song, click on the link below:

Futureheads - Beginning of the Twist
The latest song from Sunderland's post-Punk finest, Futurehead, has been banging around in my head for the past number of weeks, so I finally got down to working out a playable version.
While 'Beginning of the Twist', their new single from the upcoming "This is not the World" is not quite up there with "Hounds of Love" and "Decent Days and Nights" for me, it's still a great song to listen to, and even more so to play along with.
My version of the song, which should be suitable for either electric or acoustic guitar is available at my guitar chords and lyrics website, on the link below:

While 'Beginning of the Twist', their new single from the upcoming "This is not the World" is not quite up there with "Hounds of Love" and "Decent Days and Nights" for me, it's still a great song to listen to, and even more so to play along with.
My version of the song, which should be suitable for either electric or acoustic guitar is available at my guitar chords and lyrics website, on the link below:
Rock song chords and lyrics- Futurehead - Beginning of the Twist
You can buy all of the Futurehead CDs at CDUniverse - Futureheads Music page
The Futureheads official site can be found at http://www.thefutureheads.co.uk/ and their MySpace page is at http://www.myspace.com/thefutureheads

Elvis Ain't Dead chords - Scouting for Girls
In the tradition of the many bubbly British pop/rock bands which have abounded over the past few years, Scouting For Girls hit the scene big time when their eponymous debut album hit the UK #1 spot last year.
Some great bop-along, sing-along numbers, including their latest single 'Elvis ain't dead', a top 10 singles hit from earlier this year.
I have worked out a fairly playable chords and lyrics version, which you can try out by clicking the link below:
Rock song chords and lyrics - Scouting for Girls - 'Elvis ain't dead'
You can buy all of the Lifehouse albums ( including some compilations they appear on ) at CDUniverse - Scouting for Girls' Music page
The official SFG website is at http://www.scoutingforgirls.co.uk/ and their MySpace page is at http://www.myspace.com/scoutingforgirls

Lifehouse - You and Me chords
I'm really just cathing up with Lifehouse - hadn't really listened to any of their stuff since "Hanging in a Moment" back in 2001. Just started listening to "Who We Are", and hopefully will work out a song or two from that album presently.
Meanwhile, I have worked out my interpretation of the chords and lyrics for Lifehouse "You and Me", my favourite song from the eponymous "Lifehouse" album in 2004. You can check it out at the link below:

That's how people grow up - Morrissey
"That's how people grow up" is the fantastic single ( and the only new song ). from the "Greatest Hits" album of one Stephen Patrick Morrissey, aka Morrissey, aka 'Mozza'.
Having set the 80's alight with The Smiths, he continues to create pithy lyrics and haunting melodies; while there is a continuity with his early works, his newer songs still sound current.
It's quite a playable song, even on acoustic guitar. I've posted my interpretation of the chords and lyrics on the Smiths/Morrissey chords page of my website at the link below:
Free chords and lyrics to Morrissey - That's How People grow up
You can buy Morrissey albums, including the Greatest Hits ( and pre-order 'Lowdown Unauthorized - check it out ) at CDUniverse - Morrissey music page
Morrissey's official website is at http://www.itsmorrisseysworld.com/ and you can find him on MySpace at http://www.myspace.com/morrissey

Glen Hansard - Falling Slowly chords and lyrics
In February, "Falling Slowly" by Glen Hansard ( of The Frames songs fame ) and Marketa Irglova won an Academy Award for "Best Original Song" ( From the film "Once" ). The Frames are one of the most underrated bands on the planet, and Glen ( who appeared as 'Outspan' in 1991's "The Committments" ), is thoroughly deserving of this great achievement.
It's a lovely, haunting song, I've done my best to work out playable chords and lyrics which you can find on my guitar chords website at the link below:
Falling Slowly - Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova
You can buy the Frames albums, including the "Once" soundtrack at CD Universe - Frames/Glen Hansard music page

Colbie Caillat - Bubbly chords and lyrics
I first 'discovered' Colbie Caillat ( not literally! ) when she sent me an add request on MySpace about 18 months ago. She was an unsigned artist at that time, but listening to her profile songs ( to which Bubbly was added quite early ), it was obvious she was going places. Having been #1 Unsigned singer for an amazing 3 months, Bubbly finally broke the charts in the US, making it all the way to the #1 Spot.
For some reason, it's taking some time for Colbie to hit the same heights on my side of the pond - if you are one of the unfortunates who haven't heard her sultry blend of country/blues/rock ballad, check out the 6 songs on her MySpace profile ( Bubbly included ), and see why the song had 22 million clicks up to last August!!
For those who are familiar with the song, and would like to attempt playing it, I have worked out a pretty straightforward version which you can reach at the link below:
Colbie Caillat - Bubbly chords and lyrics.
You can buy her brilliant first album "Coco", featuring "Bubbly" and her other singles at CD Universe - Colbie Caillat music page
Colbie's official website is at http://www.colbiecaillatmusic.com/ Her world renowned MySpace page is at http://www.myspace.com/colbiecaillat - this is a 'must visit' page!!!

Tom Waits - Rains on Me Chords
I can't believe that it has taken me so long to post a song from the latest Tom Waits Album "Orphans - Brawlers, Bawlers and Bastards". Certainly no reflection on the album, which is brilliant! Although it's a collection of songs from various projects and other unreleased recordings, the quality of the songs is superb, it was exactly like a new album being released - only with 54 new songs!!
The categorised format exactly fitted my Tom playlists on my Zen - LiteWaits, MiddleWaits and HeavyWaits, which made the upload really easy!
Anywaze, I have added my version of the chords and lyrics for "Rains on Me" ( which I think is a Chuck E. Weiss colloboration ) to my Tom Waits Songs page -
http://www.guitarsongs.info/waits.htm
Find out more about the album on his new record label's page http://www.anti.com/catalog.php?id=69 or check out the official Tom Waits page at http://www.officialtomwaits.com/main.htm

Free Acoustic Guitar Video Lesson
PJ's chords and Lyrics presents:
I have been singing the praises of Dan Denleys guitar courses - AmazingGuitar, BluesGuitar, LeadGuitar and AcousticGuitar for some time now. The link to the Acoustic course has been displaying "Sold Out" for some weeks now, but it is being relaunched tomorrow, Fri 14th March at 11 a.m. Eastern time. To celebrate the relaunch, Dan has given me a POWERFUL, 14 minute free video lesson crammed with incredible info about guitar CHORDS to share with my Blog readers. In this video you'll discover:
-> How chords are related to scales...
-> Why some chords are maj, minor, dom, etc.
-> What guitarists mean when they say... "two
chord" or "five chord" etc.
-> Which chords come from the major scale
-> The difference between a triad and a 7th
chord...
...and a LOT more.
You can watch it here right now:
14 Minute Guitar Chords Lesson - From Dan Denley's AcousticGuitarSecrets course
This video shows extracts of Dan's Acoustic Guitar Secrets course,
which is fast becoming THE standard for learning acoustic guitar.
The course completely sold out when it was released back in December,
hence the unavailable message you will have seen if you clicked the
link recently.
Now, *finally* it's going to be available again, remember it's
tomorrow: Fri, Mar 14 at 11AM (eastern).
Oh - and you can also download this video and watch on your iPod.
Just look for the "iPod" link.
I own a copy of this course, and it has done more to improve my
guitar playing than anything I've tried in the past 20 years.
Seriously. I would strongly advise anyone who REALLY wants to be
a "Guitar Player" to grab a copy of the course, you won't regret
it. But get in early, I have a feeling that the "Sold Out" signs
will be back up fairly soon, also Dan is making noises about
splitting the course into 3 seperate courses, which will almost
certainly increase the cost.
Either ways, you can enjoy the free 14-minute video lesson at:

Greenday - Waiting chords and lyrics
Greenday are one of those bands who seem to have always been around, and for learning guitar players, provide a wealth of great and fun songs to have a really good go at.
I've added "Waiting", from the 2001 album "Warning" to my Greenday guitar chords site page. Mainly very playable chords, even for beginners, although the end gets a bit busy....! But definitely one to enjoy learning and playing, and to impress your friends with.
You can find the song on my Guitar Chords & Lyrics website, on the Greenday page.
Greenday's official website is at www.greenday.com Latest news is that Billie Joe's alternative band 'Pinhead Gunpowder' are playing California shortly.
BTW - If you are a wannabe lead guitar player, you really should check out James Todd's Guitar Leads website, it is a really excellent resource for guitarists of all levels to acquire or improve their lead guitar playing skills.
Enjoy your music!

BTW - If you are a wannabe lead guitar player, you really should check out James Todd's Guitar Leads website, it is a really excellent resource for guitarists of all levels to acquire or improve their lead guitar playing skills.
Enjoy your music!

Weezer - Susanne
As I update my website with chords and lyrics to my favourite songs, I try to maintain a balance of old and new songs. This time I've reached back, right back to 1994! My first experience of Weezer was buying a PC with Windoze95, at the birth of the multimedia PC. The OS CD had 3 or 4 music videos, one of which was 'Buddy Holly', from the debit 'Blue' album. Although Suzanne was recorded ( I think as a B-side ) at that time, I only heard it when it was included on a Bonus disc, when the album was re-released in 2004.
25 albums and 22 singles on, they are still one of my top 'feelgood guitar bands', both to listen to, and to busk out my own ( mostly acoustic guitar ) versions of. I've posted my interpretation of the chords and lyrics to "Suzanne" on my Weezer guitar chords page. I hope you remember the song, and will enjoy playing it!
Check out the official Weezer website at : weezer.com or check out their album and singles list on their CDUniverse page
Enjoy your music!

Paul Simon - Father and Daugter
It has been a while since I posted chords for a Paul Simon song. While I've never been a huge fan ( only 7 solo songs + 3 S&G songs on my Paul Simon guitar chords page ), I have bought most of the albums, without playing them all that often. Since I started to listen to music almost exclusively on my MP3 player, a bunch of songs I hadn't heard in a while are jumping out and reminding me how good they are. "Father and Daughter" is just one of these songs. The guitar chords aren't too tricky for a Paul Simon song, and as a father of two daughters, I can't help but be grabbed by the lyrics. You can find my version of the guitar chords and lyrics to "Father and Daughter" on my Paul Simon / Simon and Garfunkel guitar chords and lyrics page below:
