#Mr. Bojangles (partial lyrics)
#
#I know the song, but can't remember all the lyrics, so
#another post there would be helpful. I'll just include
#the first verse so you know where the changes are.
#
#This is easy to play, and you can make it sound good by
#adding little walks up and down on the bass notes.   This
#is one of the first songs I started using bass notes on
#when I taught myself to play, so I'm going spell out how to do
#it for any beginners.
#
#I am using C* and G* to denote changes in bass notes.
#The progression for each is as follows:
#
#C* -  C bass note, strum C a couple times,
#      B bass note, strum C a couple times,
#      A bass note, strum C a couple times,
#      G bass note, A bass note, B bass note.  (no
#      strumming when you walk back up)
#
#G* -  Strum G a couple of times,
#      G bass note, A bass note, B bass note.
#      (note: next chord will be C or Am, with a C bass note,
#       so it fits the progression.)     Mr.  Bojangles       by ...?
#

#Intro:   C*  a couple of times.

#I knew a man, Bojangles, and he danced for you,
#
#F           G*
#In worn out shoes,
#
#C*
#Silver, a ragged shirt and baggy pants,
#
#F            G*
#The old soft shoe,

I dislike going to a song and the entirity of it is missing and it starts in the middle of the song, I recently joined another Guitar webpage that actually gives the entire song, this is bs.
