Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
OK, first up, Arlo's website has the 'official' chords on it.
http://www.arlo.net/resources/tablature/display.php?file=ring-around.chopro
But speaking as a rank novice, I found the D minor to B flat chord switch was a
tad tricky which was a shame as this song's a real crowd pleaser!
Anyway, I found a way to cheat a bit and make the whole thing more novice friendly
- transpose the chords down 5 semitones and capo it to the 5th fret to get it back
into key. It makes the chords way easier to play!
C E7
1) I had a friend, a friend you could trust
Am F
Went into the park and got busted
C D7 G7
Doin' the Ring-Around-A-Rosy-Rag.
C E7
Went to the park, late at night
Am F
Ring-Around-A-Rosy in the middle of the night
C D7 G7 C G7
Yes, we all should do the Ring-Around-A-Rosy-Rag
Ch) Ring around, ring around Rose
Touch your nose and blow your toes
And mind after doin' the Ring-Around-A-Rosy-Rag.
Ring around, ring around Rose
Touch your nose and blow your toes
And mind after doin' the Ring-Around-A-Rosy-Rag.
2) We ought to send Officer Joe Strange
To some Australian mountain range
So we all could do the Ring-Aroud-A-Rosy-Rag
Would you like to put Philadelphia upthight, one mass
Ring-Aroud-A-Rosy in the middle of the night
Yes, we all should do the Ring-Aroud-A-Rosy-Rag
Ch)
C E7 A7
Touch your nose and blow your toes
D7 G7
And mind after doin' the Ring-Around-A-Rosy-Rag.
