Here are some songs we didn't get to yesterday that we might want to work on next week:
• At least one Waylon Jennings song (Colin sings). Colin suggested "Only Daddy that Will Walk the Line." (Does anyone have a YouTube link? ) And any of those Billy Joe Shaver songs that Waylon recorded would be great, too. • Above and Beyond (G, Jim sings melody, Steve sings harmony) The chords on the website are in C. They're easy to transpose. • Sweet Caroline (D, Ronnie sings). The chords on the website are in A. I'll transpose them if I get inspired. • Only the Lonely (F, Jim sings) • Pretty Woman (A, Ronnie sings) • Yes Sir (D, Steve sings) • Shana instrumentals • No One is to Blame (A? Ronnie sings?)
Maybe's
• What a Difference A Day Makes / Cuando Vuelva a tu Lado. (Christy sings in D, Jim sings in F) • Fly me to the Moon (E flat and A flat? Christy and Ronnie sing) • Mrs. Robinson (G) • You're Gonna Lose that Girl (D) • Other Buck Owens (Sam's Place, My Heart Skips a Beat) • I Saw Her Standing There • Penny Lane • I’ve Just Seen A Face

Does my baby call me honey, Yes Sir Does she help me save my money, Yes Sir When she rolls those big black eyes, breathes those heavy sighs Does it make goose pimples rise, Yes Sir
Is there gonna be a wedding, Yes Sir Is the news already spreading, Yes Sir When they play here comes the bride, we walk down side by side Will I be puffed out with pride, Yes Sir
Did I call on Sally Pringle, Yes Sir Did she vow that she was single, Yes Sir When that man walked in the flat, and he hollered who is that Did I leave without my hat, Yes Sir
Did I quit my misbehaving, Yes Sir Is my razor just for shaving, Yes Sir Did I take my gals advice, did I cut out gin and dice And wasn’t that some sacrifice, Yes Sir
Did I come home barely ticking, Yes Sir Boy did I do some sweet bone picking, Yes Sir When my neighbor counts his flock Boy, will he get a shock, and will he miss those Plymouth Rock, Yes Sir

Page 13 2/4/2007 Penny Lane (B) (John Lennon and Paul McCartney) * The chords in the second line should be B to Bm7, I think. At any rate, the chords I wrote aren't right. * The third line (G to F#7 to E) isn't right when you're going to another verse. But I think these chords work when you're going to the chorus. Here are a couple of URLs for versions in G: http://www.tabpower.com/s7155.html http://www.azchords.com/b/beatles-tabs-410/pennylane-tabs-101035.html
Here are the chords transposed to B:
1. B G#m C#m F#7 Penny Lane: there is a barber showing photographs
B G#m Gm7 of ev'ry head he's had the pleasure to know
Bm6 G F#7 E And all the people that come and go stop and say hello
A C#m7 D Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes.
A C#m7 D F#7 There beneath the blue suburban skies. I sit and meanwhile
2. On the corner is a banker with a motor car. The little children laugh at him behind his back. And the banker never wears a "mac" in the pouring rain, very strange. Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes. There beneath the blue suburban skies. I sit and meanwhile.
3. Back in Penny Lane: there is a fireman with an hour glass. And in his pocket is a portrait of the queen. He likes to keep his fire engine clean, it's a clean machine. Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes. Full of fish and finger pies in summer meanwhile
4. Behind the shelter in the middle of a roundabout The pretty nurse is selling poppies from a tray And tho’ she feels as if she’s in a play She is anyway.
5. Back in Penny Lane: the barber shaves another customer. We see the banker sitting, waiting for a trim And then the fireman rushes in from the pouring rain, very strange. B E Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes.
B E There beneath the blue suburban skies.
Penny lane.
