Ashokan Farewell

A real treat in this post, Ashokan Farewell played by the composer himself.  Sheet music and chords included below as usual.  Meant to be played as the last song when saying goodbye.

Jumbolaya Cajun tune, recording, sheetmusic and chords and lyrics!

Jumbolaya's another Cajun tune, written by Hank Williams, and may be based on an older Cajun tune, like the way much music truly is based on what came before, especially in the folk tradition.

Here's R Cajun and the Zydeco Brothers playing it: sheetmusic, chords and lyrics await your viewing pleasure below :)

Jambalaya
written and recorded by Hank Williams 
G                             D7
Goodbye Joe me gotta go me oh my oh
                                      G
Me gotta go pole the pirogue down the bayou
                                 D7
My Yvonne the sweetest one me oh my oh
                                       G
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou
 
                                       D7
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and filet gumbo
                                       G
Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio
                                  D7
Pick guitar fill fruit jar and be gay-o
                                       G
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou
 
                                   D7
Thibodaux Fontaineaux the place is buzzing
                                  G
Kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen
                                     D7
Dress in style and go hog wild me oh my oh
                                       G
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou
 
                                     D7
Settle down far from town get me a pirogue
                                   G
And I'll catch all the fish in the bayou
                                   D7
Swap my mon to buy Yvonne what she need-oh
                                       G
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou
