ALL MY LOVING
4/4 1234 12
Close your eyes and I’ll kiss you, to-morrow I’ll miss you
Re-member I’ll always be true
And then while I’m a-way I’ll write home every day
And I’ll send all my loving to you
I’ll pre-tend that I’m kissing the lips I am missing
And hope that my dreams will come true
And then while I’m a-way I’ll write home every day
And I’ll send all my loving to you
All my loving I will send to you
All my loving, darling, I’ll be true.

DREAM A LITTLE DREAM
The Mamas & the Papas
4/4 1234
Stars shining bright a-bove you
Birds singing in the sycamore tree
Say “Nightie-night” and kiss me
Night breezes seem to whisper “I love you.”
Dream a little dream of me.
Just hold me tight and tell me you’ll miss
While I’m alone and blue as can be Dream a little dream of
Stars fading but I linger on, dear
I’m longing to linger ‘til dawn, dear
me.
Still craving your kiss
Just saying this…
Sweet dreams ‘til sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries be-hind you
But in your dreams what-ever they be Dream a little dream of
me.
But in your dreams what-ever they be Dream a little dream of
me.

play 3 times and then just first bar of chords
It's not [G] time to make a [D] change,
Just re-[C]-lax, take it [Am7] easy
You're still [G] young, that's your [Em] fault,
There's so [Am] much you have to [D] know
Find a [G] girl, settle [D] down, if you [C] want you can [Am7] marry
Look at [G] me, I am [Em] old, but I'm [Am] happy [D]
I was [G] once like you are [D] now,
and I [C] know that it's not [Am7] easy,
To be [G] calm when you've [Em] found something [Am] going on [D]
But take your [G] time, think a [D] lot,
Why, think of [C] everything you've [Am7] got
For you will [G] still be here to-[Em]-morrow, but your [D] dreams may [G] not
Play riff once and first bar of chords - the [G] at the end of the previous verse starts the riff
How can [G] I try to ex-[Bm]-plain, when I [C] do he turns a-[Am7]-way again
It's [G] always been the [Em] same, same old [Am] story [D]
From the [G] moment I could [Bm] talk I was [C] ordered to [Am7] listen
Now there's a [G] way and I [Em] know that I [D] have to go a-[G]-way
I [D] know I [C] have to [G] go
Play riff again as above - and again the [G] at the end of the last verse is the start of the riff
It's not [G] time to make a [D] change,
Just sit [C] down, take it [Am7] slowlyYou're still [G] young, that's your [Em] fault,
There's so [Am] much you have to go [D] through
Find a [G] girl, settle [D] down, if you [C] want you can [Am7] marry
Look at [G] me, I am [Em] old, but I'm [Am] happy- [D]
All the [G] times that I [Bm] cried, keeping [C] all the things I [Am7] knew inside,
It's [G] hard, but it's [Em] harder to ig-[Am]-nore it- [D]
If they were [G] right, I'd a-[Bm]-gree, but it's [C] them they know, not [Am7] me
Now there's a [G] way and I [Em] know that I [D] have to go a-[G]-way
I [D] know I [C] have to [G↓] go

Hel-lo Mary Lou,

goodbye heart, sweet Mary Lou, I'm so in love with you.
we'd never part, so hel-lo, Mary Lou, goodbye heart
You passed me by one sunny day, flashed those big brown eyes my way
And oo I wanted you forever more
Now I'm not one that gets around, I swear my feet stuck to the ground
And though I never did meet you be-fore,
I said…. (Hello, Mary Lou….)
CHORUS
I saw your lips I heard your voice, be-lieve me I just had no choice

I thought about a moonlit night, my arms around you good an' tight

[C] I hear the train a comin’ it’s rolling round the bend
And I ain’t seen the sunshine since [C7] I don’t know when
I’m [F] stuck in Folsom prison and time keeps draggin’ [C] on
But that [G7] train keeps a rollin’ on down to San An[C]ton
When [C] I was just a baby my mama told me son
Always be a good boy don’t you [C7] ever play with guns
But I [F] shot a man in Reno just to watch him [C] die
When I [G7] hear that whistle blowin'
I hang my head and [C] cry
INSTRUMENTAL (same form as the verses)
I [C] bet there’s rich folks eating in a fancy dining car
They’re probably drinkin’ coffee and [C7] smoking big cigars
Well I [F] knew I had it coming I know I can’t be [C] free
But those [G7] people keep a movin’
And that’s what tortures [C] me
[C] Well if they’d free me from this prison
If that railroad train was mine
I bet I’d move it all a little [C7] further down the line
[F] Far from Folsom prison that’s where I want to [C] stay
And I’d [G7] let that lonesome whistle blow my blues a[C]way

JAMAICA FAREWELL w.m. Herbie Lovell, Roy McIntyre,
Lillian Keyser
(1) Down the way where the nights are gay and the sun shines daily on the mountain top,
I took a trip on a sailing ship and when I reach Jamaica I make a stop, but I’m
Sad to say I’m on my way, won’t be back for many a day
My heart is down my head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
Sounds of laughter everywhere and the dancin’ girls swing to and fro
I must declare my heart is there, though I been from Maine to Mexico, but I’m
Sad to say I’m on my way, won’t be back for many a day
My heart is down my head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town.
Jamaica Farewell p. 2
Down at the market you can hear ladies cry out while on their heads they bear
Ake rice, salt fish are nice, and the rum is fine anytime of year, but I’m
Sad to say I’m on my way, won’t be back for many a day
My heart is down, my head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
I had to leave a little girl…….

LET IT BE w.m. John Lennon, Paul McCartney

1…2…123
When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, Let it Be
And in my hour of darkness she is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, Let it Be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeh, let it be, whisper words of wisdom, L I B
And when the broken hearted people living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be
For though they may be parted, there is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be.
Let It Be p.2
Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeh, let it be, there will be an answer, L I B
And when the night is cloudy there is still a light that shines on me
Shine until tomorrow, let it be.
I wake up to the sound of music, Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeh, let it be, whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

MY ISLAND HOME
In the evening the dry wind blows
Six years I’ve been in the desert
From the hills and across the plains
Every night I dreamt of the sea
I close my eyes and I’m standing
They say home is where you find it
In a boat on the sea again
Will this place ever satisfy me
And I’m holding that long turtle spear
And i feel I’m close now to where it must be
For I come from the salt water people
My island home is waiting for me
We always live by the sea
Now I’m down here living in the city
CHORUS x 2
With my man and a family
My home is Australia
CHORUS
We are a land surrounded by sea
My island home, my island home
Though I may travel far across the ocean
My island home, is waiting for me x 2
It will never forget me
For i come from the salt water people
We always live by the sea
Now I’m down here living in the city
With my kin and my family
CHORUS X 2
ON THE ROAD AGAIN
4/4 1234 12
On the road again, just can’t wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin’ music with my friends, and I can’t wait to get on the road a-gain.
On the road again, goin’ places that I’ve never been
Seein’ things that I may never see again, and I can’t wait to get on the road a-gain.
On the road again, like a band of gypsies we go down the highway
We’re the best of friends, insisting that the world be turnin’ our way….and our way
Is on the road again, just can’t wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin’ music with my friends, and I can’t wait to get on the road a-gain
And I can’t wait to get on the road a-gain.
And I can’t wait to get on the road a-gain.
RHYTHM OF THE RAIN
4/4 1…2…1234
Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain telling me just what a fool I've been
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain, and let me be a-lone a-gain
The only girl I care about has gone away, looking for a brand new start
But little does she know that when she left that day, a-long with her she took my heart
Rain please tell me now does that seem fair
For her to steal my heart away when she don't care
I can't love another when my heart’s some-where far a-way
The only girl I care about has gone away
Looking for a brand new start
But little does she know that when she left that day
A-long with her she took my heart

Somewhere Over The Rainbow
by Israel Kamakawiwo’ole
Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
And the dreams that you dream of once in a lul-la-by
Somewhere over the rainbow blue birds fly
And the dreams that you dream of, dreams really do come true
Someday I’ll wish upon a star, wake up where the
clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chi-mn-ey tops that’s where, you’ll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dare to, oh why, oh why can’t I?
Someday I’ll wish upon a star, wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops is where you’ll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
And the dreams that you dare to, oh why, oh why can’t I?

Tell them I won't be long,
They'll be happy to know that as you saw me go
I was singing this song.
We'll meet a-gain, don't know where, don't know when,
But I know we'll meet a-gain some sunny day.
WHEN THE SAINTS GO MARCHING IN
4/4
1234 1
Oh, when the Saints go marching in, oh, when the Saints go marching in
Oh, Lord, I want to be in that number, when the Saints go marching in.
Oh, when the sun refuse to shine, oh, when the sun refuse to shine,
Oh, Lord, I want to be in that number, when the sun re-fuse to shine.
Oh, when the Saints………………..
Oh when the trumpet sounds the call, oh, when the trumpet sounds the call
Oh, Lord, I want to be in that number, when the trumpet sounds the call
Oh, when the Saints……………….
WHEN YOU’RE SMILING
4/4
1234 12
When you’re smiling, when you’re smiling, the whole world smiles with you.
When you’re laughing, when you’re laughing,
But when you’re crying, you bring on the rain,
So stop your sighing, be happy again.
Keep on smiling, ‘cause when you’re smiling
The whole world smiles with you!
the sun comes shining through.
YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE
4/4
1234 1
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You’ll never know, dear, how much I love you
Please don’t take my sunshine away.
The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping,
I dreamed I held you in my arms
When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
So I hung down my head and I cried.
