              Alphabetical List of Songs on this Site

Here's the full list of songs on this site so far. I' will be revising all the links over the next couple of months, but I hope they will continue to work. Please let me know if you find any dud links!


The levels refer to the sequence I have worked out for step-by-step learning to play (see How to make Chords for the chords and sequence). They don't necessarily mean that the levels get harder, though the early levels are very easy.


Click on the song title to open/download the PDF file.


Each PDF file has the words to the songs with chords on all verses, and most have chord diagrams. I'm re-doing them to add the levels and the starting note to help you sing. You'll have to know the tune and the timing, though.


I've made the words on the songs sheets as large as feasible, so they're easy to read when you're playing them (or when you're sharing with someone else for a sing-along). I've put them on PDF documents as it's too hard to format them on the web pages- and PDF is stable and easy to download. If you want a Word copy that you can edit, let me know.


Please leave me a message in my Guestbook or Blog, post a comment on my Facebook page (Cathy's Chords), or send me an email if you like the songs or find an error in my transcriptions, or if you have any queries or requests!


Have fun!


Cathy 

P.S. Opening and/or downloading these song sheets uses bandwidth, which I have to pay for, so if you are using more than half a dozen or so of the sheets, and if you have a few dollars to spare, you may like to donate a little bit to help with the site costs (but please don't feel obligated in any way, the songs are here for you to enjoy).
