There’s a yel-low rose in Tex-as

I’m go-ing home to see,

she wants no oth-er fel-low
7 -7 7 -8 8 -8
no-bo-dy on-ly me.
6 -5 5 6 6 6 -6 6
Oh, she cried so when I left her

6 6 6 -9 -9 -9 -9 8 -8

6 6 6 6 -6 -6 6 5

There’s a yellow rose in texas

5 7 -7 7 -8 8

That I am gonna see

8 -9 8 -8 -9 8 -8

No other soldier knows her

7 -7 7 -8 8 -8

No soldier only me

6 6 6 -6 -6 5 5

She cried so when I left her

5 7 -7 7 -8 8

It like to broke my heart

8 -9 8 -8 -9 8-8 7

And If I ever Find her

7 -7 6 -6 -7 7

We nevermore will part

She’s the sweetest little rosebud this soldier ever knew

Her eyes are bright as diamonds they sparkle like the dew

You may talk about your dearest may and sing of rosa lee

But the yellow rose of texas beats the belles of tennessee

Where the rio grande is flowing and the starry skies are bright

she walks along the river in the quiet summer night

She thinks if I remember when we parted long ago

I promised to come back again and not to leave her so

She’s the sweetest little rosebud this soldier ever knew

Her eyes are bright as diamonds they sparkle like the dew

You may talk about your dearest may and sing of rosa lee

But the yellow rose of texas beats the belles of tennessee

Well now I’m headed southward and my heart is sinking low

I’m going back to georgia to find my uncle joe

You may talk about your beauregard and speak of bobby lee

But the gallant hood of texas he played hell in tennessee

She’s the sweetest little rosebud this soldier ever knew

Her eyes are bright as diamonds they sparkle like the dew

You may talk about your dearest may and sing of rosa lee

But the yellow rose of texas beats the belles of tennessee

Oh now I’m gonna find her for my heart is full of woe

We’ll sing the songs together that we sang so long ago

We’ll play the banjo gaily and we’ll sing the songs of yore

And the yellow rose of texas shall be mine forevermore

She’s the sweetest little rosebud this soldier ever knew

Her eyes are bright as diamonds they sparkle like the dew

You may talk about your dearest may and sing of rosa lee

But the yellow rose of texas beats the belles of tennessee

The legend lives on
-5 4 -3* 3 3 3 3
from the Chip-pe-wa on down
-3* -3* -3* -3* -3* -3
of the big lake they called
3 -2 3 1
«Git-che Gu-mee.»

3 4 4 4 4
The lake, it is said,
-5 4 -3* 3 3 3
Ne-ver gives up her dead
-3* -3* -3* -3* -3* -3 3
when the skies of No-vem-ber
-2 3 1
turn gloo-my.

3 4 4 4 4
With a load of iron ore
-5 4 -3* 3 3 3 3
twenty-six thousand tons more
-3* -3* -3*-3* -3* -3 3
than the Ed-mund Fitz-ger-ald
-2 3 1
weighed emp-ty,

3 4 4 4 4
That good ship and true
-5 4 -3* 3 3 3
was a bone to be chewed
-3* -3* -3* -3* -3* -3 3
when the «Gales of No-vem-ber»
-2 3 4
came early.

3 4 4 4 4 -5
The ship was the pride
4 -3* 3 3 3 3 3
of the A-mer-i-can side
-3* -3* -3* -3* -3* -3
Com-ing back from some mill
3 -2 3 1
in Wis-con-sin.

3 4 4 4 4 4
As the big freighters go,
-5 4 -3* 3 3 3
it was big-ger than most
-3* -3* -3* -3* -3* -3 3
with a crew and good captain
-2 3 4
well sea-soned,

3 4 4 4 4 -5
concluding some terms
-5 4 -3* 3 3 3
with a couple of steel firms
-3* -3* -3* -3* -3* -3 3
when they left ful-ly loaded
-2 3 1
for Cleveland.

3 4 4 4
And later that
4 -5 4 -3* 3 3 3
night when the ship’s bell rang,
-3* -3* -3* -3* -3* -3
could it be the north wind
3 -2 3 4
they’d been feelin’?

4 4 -5 4 -3* 3 3 3
3 -3 -3* -3 3 -2 3

3 4 4 4
The wind in the
4 -5 4 -3* 3 3 3 3
wires made a tattle-tale sound
-3* -3* -3* -3* -3* -3
and a wave broke ov-er
-2 3 1
the railing.

3 4 4 4 4
And ev’ry man knew,
-5 4 -3* 3 3 3
as the cap-tain did too
-3* -3* -3* -3* -3* -3 3
’twas the witch of No-vem-ber
-2 3 4
come stealin’.

3 4 4 4
The dawn came late
-5 4 -3* 3 3 3 3
and the breakfast had to wait
-3* -3* -3* -3* -3* -3 3
when the Gales of No-vem-ber
-2 3 4
came slashin’.

3 4 4 4 4
When af-ter-noon came
-5 4 -3* 3 3
it was freezin’ rain
-3* -3* -3* -3* -3* -3 3 -2
in the face of a hur-ri-cane

When suppertime came

the old cook came on deck say-in’.
-3* -3* -3* -3* -3 3
«Fellas, it’s too rough
-2 3 1
t’feed ya.»

3 4 4 4 4
At seven P. M.
-5 4 -3* 3 3 3
a main hatchway caved in;
-3* -3* -3* -3* -3* -3 3
he said, «Fel-las, it’s bin good
-2 3 4
t’know ya!»

3 4 4 4 4
The captain wired in
-5 4 -3* 3 3 3
he had wa-ter comin’ in
-3* -3* -3* -3* -3* -3 3
and the good ship and crew was
-2 3 1
in per-il.

3 4 4 4 4
And later that night
-5 4 -3* 3 3 3 3
when ‘is lights went outta sight
-3* -3* -3* -3* -3* -3 3
came the wreck of the Ed-mund
-2 3 4

The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down
Of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee. v
Superior, they say, never gives up her dead
When the gales of November come early. ^

The Workers Song by Ed Pickford; covered by Dick Gaughan and The Dropkick Murphys.

6 5 4 4 -4 4 4 6 7 -8 8 7

Come all of you workers who toil night and day

-6 -6 7 -6 -6 7 -6-6 7 5 -4

By hand and by brain to earn your pay

6 5 4 4 -4 4 4 6 6 7 -8 8 7

Who for centuries long past for no more than your bread

-6 -6 7 -6 -6 7 5 -4 4 -4 4

Have bled for your countries and counted your dead

In the factories and mills, in the shipyards and mines

We’ve often been told to keep up with the times

For our skills are not needed, they’ve streamlined the job

With sliderule and stopwatch our pride they have robbed

But when the sky darkens and the prospect is war

Who’s given a gun and then pushed to the fore

And expected to die for the land of our birth

When we’ve never owned one handful of earth?

We’re the first ones to starve the first ones to die

The first ones in line for that pie-in-the-sky

And always the last when the cream is shared out

For the worker is working when the fat cat’s about

All of these things the worker has done

From tilling the fields to carrying the gun

We’ve been yoked to the plough since time first began

And always expected to carry the can

The Words of the Lord Are Like Silver

4 5 4 5 -5 5 -5 6 -5
The words of the Lord are like silver,
4 7 7 7 7 -6 6 5 -5 6 -5
Refined seven times in a furnace of clay
4 5 4 5 -5 5 -5 6 -5
The Lord will protect and defend us:
4 7 7 7 7 -6 6 5 -5 6 -5
His word is eternal, and with us alway.
4 7 7
Lord, help us,
7 7 7 7 7 -6 6 -5
The godly are gone from the land.
4 7 7 7 7
No faithful are left
7 7 7 -6 6 -5
In the children of man.

Verse 2:
Yet Your word is flawless like silver
Refined seven times in a furnace of clay
Your word will be with and sustain us
Your word is eternal and with us alway
Our Lord sees the evil, the sin, and the lies. From groans of
oppression our God will arise.

Verse 3:
For your word is flawless like silver
Refined seven times in a furnace of clay
And your word is with the afflicted.
Your word is eternal and with us alway
The evil strut freely but when only when what God regards vile is
honored by men.

Verse 4:
4 5 4 5 -5 5 -5 6 -5
But your word is flawless like silver
4 7 7 7 7 -6 6 5 -5 6 -5

Our God will protect and defend us

His word is eternal and with us alway.

alway.

B was the boys who could use them so.

E was the echo that through the woods rang.
F was the foreman, the head of our gang.
G was the grindstone so round and so smooth.
H was the handle so swiftly did move.
Chorus
I was the iron that marked the pine.
J was the jovial lads, never behind.
K was the keen edges our axes did keep.
L was the lice that kept us from sleep.
Chorus
M was the moss we worked in our camp.
N was the needle with which we mended our pants.
O was the owl tha hooted at nigh.
P was the pine that we always felled right.
Chorus
Q was the quarrels we did not allow.
R was the rivers our boys did not plow.
S was the sled so stout and so strong.
T was the team that hauled them along.
Chorus
U was the use we put our teams to.
V was the valley we hauled our logs through.
W was the woods we left in the spring.
Now I have sung all I’m going to sing
Chorus
These last three letters I can’t get to rhyme
But I’ll tell you I love you and hope I’m in time.
