Preface to the 5th Edition

This book and the Club that went with it started because one of my old counsellors put a few guitar chords into the official camp song book. Those chords were the reason I learned to play. That summer, when we were last-year campers, regular activities were cancelled one day because of stormy weather. We all piled into the lodge, where we sat with Ryley and her guitar, all afternoon. It was the first time a lot of us had ever sung our favourite camp songs with a guitar. At the time, I'd never even heard recordings of most of them. (This is before Napster, kids.) I remain ever thankful that we didn't play Rainy Day Bingo that afternoon. At the end of the summer I started writing in chords for the rest of the song book, which gradually led to the first edition of The Mi-A-Kon-Da Guitar Book. Since then, this book's seen a few new places and met a lot of new songs. It seemed about time to give it a name that would bring everything and everyone together. Turtle Rock does just this. On Birch Island, it's where the whole camp meets after lights out on Mi-A-Kon-Da night to sing quiet songs by the fire, listen to the camp legend, and watch the full moon rise over the lake. It's also where we meet for special cook-outs, reflections, and early in the morning to watch that bittersweet Last Sunrise of the Summer. Every camp has its turtle rock. Each has seen some beautiful skies and heard some great music. We all have these special places in our personal geographies, whether or not it's at a camp, or on a rock that looks like a turtle. (I'm sure if you look closely, though, it probably does.) A wise woman has been known to say that it's not the place, it's what you bring to it. I hope wherever you venture on the back of this great turtle, you bring a few songs. Each of the songs in this book has a story or two attached to it. Some songs were added by request, some inspired by a memory. If a song is dedicated to you in this edition, it's because you're the reason it's there; I always think of you when I play it. This edition wouldn't have happened without the persistent encouragement of Rob Grundy. Rob, thanks for always making sure I was procrastinating the right things, and for all the songs you've added over the years. You're amazing. Also, big high fives to Ian Grundy, Rich Howard, Hilary Best, and Mike Yan for their contributions to past editions. Thanks!!

Camp is the sort of place where you can do anything. The sort of place where someone has a guitar you can borrow and a few kind words to keep you going. It's where you stop being nervous because everyone's singing along with you. Thank you to everyone who sang me through the past few years, for your patience, support, and understanding. It's meant more than words.

Rock on,

20 Sound of Silence (Simon & Garfunkel) One Tin Soldier (Original Caste) Am G G D Em Hello darkness, my old friend Listen children to a story that was written long Am ago I've come to talk with you again C G C D C F C ‘Bout a kingdom on a mountain and the valley Because a vision softly creeping folk below. F C Left its seeds while I was sleeping On the mountain was a treasure F C buried deep beneath the stone And the vision that was planted in my brain And the valley people swore G F Am they’d have it for their very own. Still remains C G Am Chorus: Within the sound of silence. G D Go ahead and hate your neighbour In restless dreams I walked alone C Bm Narrow streets of cobblestone Go ahead and cheat a friend. 'Neath the halo of a street lamp G D I turned my collar to the cold and damp Do it in the name of heaven, When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a C G neon light You can justify it in the end. That split the night G D And touched the sound of silence. There won’t be any trumpets blowing C Bm And in the naked light I saw Come the judgment day Ten thousand people, maybe more G C People talking without speaking On the bloody morning after… People hearing without listening G D C G People writing songs that voices never share One tin soldier rides away. And no one dared Disturb the sound of silence. So the people of the valley Sent a message up the hill "Fools", said I, "You do not know Asking for the buried treasure Silence like a cancer grows Tonnes of gold for which they’d kill Hear my words that I might teach you Came an answer from the mountain, Take my arms that I might reach you" “with our brothers we will share But my words, like silent raindrops fell All the secrets of our mountain And echoed All the riches buried there.” In the wells of silence. [Chorus]

And the people bowed and prayed Now the valley cried with anger To the neon god they made “Mount your horses, draw your swords,” And the sign flashed out its warning And they killed the mountain people In the words that it was forming So they won their just reward And the sign said, "The words of the prophets Now they stood beside their treasure are written on the subway walls On the mountain dark and red And tenement halls" Turned the stone and looked beneath it And whispered in the sounds of silence. “Peace on earth” was all it said. [Chorus] 21 I Want to Linger Why don’t you have wings to fly with G Like the swallow so proud and free?” Mmm, I want to linger Am Calves are easily bound and slaughtered Mmm, a little longer Never knowing the reason why D G But whoever treasures freedom Mmm, a little longer here with you Like the swallow has learned to fly.

Mmm, it’s such a perfect night Puff the Magic Dragon (Peter, Paul, and Mmm, it doesn’t feel quite right Mary) Mmm, that this should be my last with you. Chorus: C Em F C Mmm, and come September Puff the magic dragon lived by the sea Mmm, I will remember F C Am Mmm, our camping days and friendships true And frolicked in the autumn mist D7 G7 Mmm, and as the years go by In a land called Honna Lee. Mmm, I’ll think of you and sigh Mmm, this is goodnight and not goodbye. Little Jackie Paper loved that rascal Puff And brought him strings and sealing Mmm, and suddenly one day C G7 Mmm, you’ll come to me and say wax and other fancy stuff. Oh! Mmm, good morning, here I am to stay. [Chorus]

Dona Dona (Joan Baez) Together they would travel on a boat with Am E Am E billowed sail On a wagon bound for market Jackie kept a lookout perched on Puff’s gigantic Am Dm Am E tail. There’s a calf with a mournful eye Am E Am E Noble kings and princes would bow whenever High above him there’s a swallow they came Am Dm E Am Pirate ships would lower their flags Winging swiftly through the sky. When Puff roared out his name. [Chorus] Chorus: G C A dragon lives forever but not so little boys How the winds are laughing Painted wings and giant rings make way for G C other toys They laugh with all their might G C E One grey night it happened: Laugh and laugh the whole day Jackie Paper came no more Am And Puff that mighty dragon he ceased his through fearless roar. E Am [Chorus] And half the summer’s night Dona Dona… His head now bent in sorrow, (Chorus chords) green scales fell like rain Puff no longer went to play “Stop complaining,” said the farmer. along that cheery lane. “Who told you a calf to be? 22 Without his lifelong friend Daniel (Elton John) He could not be brave C F G7 Dm-C So Puff that mighty dragon Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane sadly slipped into his cave.

God it looks like Daniel A F#m D G7 F/G C And what’s on the other side? Must be the clouds in my eyes. A F#m Bm E Rainbows are visions, but only illusions G7 F C A F#m D Oh Daniel, my brother, you are older than me And rainbows have nothing to hide. F C Dmaj7 Do you still feel the pain of the scars that won’t So we’ve been told heal? and some choose to believe it Am F C#m7 Your eyes have died but you see more than I I know they’re wrong, wait and see Fm C A7 Dm G7 Dm7 F C#m7 F# Daniel you’re a star in the face of the sky. Someday we’ll find it: the rainbow connection Bm E A They say Spain is pretty though I’ve never been The lovers, the dreamers, and me. Daniel says it’s the best place that he has ever seen Who said that every wish Oh and he should know, he’s been there enough Would be heard and answered Lord I miss Daniel. Oh I miss him so much. When wished on the morning star? Somebody thought of that Imagine (John Lennon) And someone believed it C Cmaj7 F Look what it’s done so far. Imagine there’s no heaven, What’s so amazing that keeps us stargazing, It’s easy if you try And what do we think we might see? No hell below us Someday we’ll find it: the rainbow connection Above us only sky The lovers, the dreamers, and me. F Am Dm7 F A/G# F#m E Imagine all the people All of us under its spell G C G7 D D/C# E F Living for today We know that it’s probably magic… Imagine there’s no countries Have you been half asleep It isn’t hard to do And have you heard voices? Nothing to kill or die for I’ve heard them calling my name. And no religion too Is this the sweet sound that called the young Imagine all the people sailors? Living life in peace The voice might be one and the same. I’ve heard it too many times to ignore it Chorus: It’s something that I’m supposed to be F G C Cmaj7/E/E7 Someday we’ll find it: the rainbow connection You may say I’m a dreamer The lovers, the dreamers, and me. But I’m not the only one 23 I hope some day you’ll join us less the same. F G C After changes, we are more or less the same. And the world will be(live) as one. Lie-la-lie ...

294 In the window of the tallest tower call The clown that passed Then pass us by Saw me just come up with anger But much too high When it filled with circus dogs To see the empty road at happy hour The parking lot Leave and resonate Had an element of danger Just like the gates So, Around the holy kingdom With words like 'Lost and Found' and 'Don't Look Please, remember me Down' Finally And 'Someone Save Temptation' And all my uphill clawing And My dear But if I make Please, remember me The pearly gates As in the dream Do my best to make a drawing We had as rug-burned babies Of God and Lucifer Among the fallen trees A boy and girl And fast asleep An angel kissing on a sinner Aside the lions and the ladies A monkey and a man That called you what you like A marching band And even might All around the frightened trapeze swingers. Give a gift for your behaviour Na na... A fleeting chance to see A trapeze I'll Be There For You (The Rembrandts) Swing as high as any saviour For Sofie, July 2002 But A G So no one told you life was gonna be this way Please, remember me A My misery Your job's a joke, you're broke, And how it lost me all I wanted C#m Those dogs that love the rain your love life's D.O.A And chasing trains G Bm A The coloured birds above there running It's like you're always stuck in second gear In circles round the well G Bm And where it spells When it hasn't been your day, your week, On the wall behind St. Peter's A E So bright with cinder grey your month or even your year. But, And spray paint 'Who the hell can see forever?' Chorus: And A D E I'll be there for you Please, remember me (when the rain starts to pour) Seldomly I'll be there for you In the car behind the carnival (like I've been there before) My hand between your knees I'll be there for you You turn from me G A And said 'The trapeze act was wonderful ('cause your there for me too) But never meant to last'

295 You're still in bed at ten and work began at eight Walk With You (Dispatch) You've burnt your breakfast For TC So far things are going great [Flute Instrumental] Your mother warned you there'd be days like these D C G But she didn't tell you when the world has brought D C G C D you down to your knees that C G D C G [Chorus] And I will walk with you C D C Bridge: Using the stars as guides D G D C G No one could ever know me On a homeward path we go No one could ever see me C F#m Knowing our time is nigh Seems you're the only one who knows D Em C what it's like to be me And I, I will walk Bm C G D Someone to face the day with To be with you A D Em C Make it through all the rest with All I’ve done G C D C D C Someone I'll always laugh with To be with you E D E F#m D E Even at my worst my best was you, yeah So put your hand in mine [Instrumental] And lay your head to rest We’ll light the candles It's like you're always stuck in second gear They won’t be lit for long When it hasn't been your day, your week, We’ll know our day is blessed your month or even your year. [Chorus] And I will walk A D E To be with you I'll be there for you x 6 All I’ve done G All I've done 'cause you're there for me too. Just to be with you. I, I... [Instrumental, Verse 1]

I, I will walk To be with you All I've done And all I say I, I... To be with you To be with you To be with you.
