Badeye,

Seriously - yesterday I actually looked at the date  icon on my computer bc I thought somehow I messed up and  it was Thursday - when you didn't have the post. up. 
Leadbelly is awesome - what a wild life he had. His Biography is a good read.
His song "Where did you sleep last night?" is one of my favorites - it's actually how I discovered Leadbelly.  I thought it was a  Kurt Cobain / Nirvana song - but after researching found that they just were covering good ol' Leadbelly.
Thanks for the Blues with Saturday coffee and cartoons !:)

Thanks Arkady

I added the lyrics and chords in my edit.

baha    - After reading the Bald Eagles post, the fishing season post, I actually thought this was going to be about trucks.
What a pleasant surprise - this band is very good.  A cross between Bonnie Raitt and Steeley Dan.

It kind of created a picture in my head of what a band from all the Chordie Contributors might look like if they ever all got together and seriously played together for a while.
Let's see - Kiki Jan and Mekidsmom singing along with Mojo,  Gil and Phill on guitar and keyboard,  Strummerboy Bill on Percussion,  Dino and Beamer on Lead,  bluejeep, TF, BGD, and whoever else I'm unintentionally leaving out playing and singing backup ,  I am sure that would be fantastic!   an organized chordiestock band:)
Thanks for sharing

I just watched demos of it - its pretty amazing
My draw back is that - with my bad singing - instead of one bad singer there would be 3 or 5
 
Thanks for sharing though = it is pretty cool

Trust me Wayne - the good people of Chordie will figure it out.
I too was frustrated at first - and everyone - especially us older guys (and gals too I suppose) are a little slow to jump on the "change bandwagon". But I have started to get used to it - you just have to jump in - get those feet in the pond- and try some new stuff.  It hasn't always worked/ but the mods and Per will address anything you send them.  Like it says all over - Keep Calm and carry on !  I hope it all works out for you and you continue to enjoy Chordie and all the good people around the globe that participate and interact.  It's a really good family of friends!

Jim

Thanks Guys

Dino you are right - A7 is much better - thanks for the tip _ i will edit and change it.

Mods - can you tell me why it won't go in to chord pro format - I entered it according to directions as I have always done in the past. Is there something new I need to do ?

I think this song has the potential for a nice guitar solo in it, right after the first chorus - - too bad I can't play enough to put one in

Thanks for taking a look!
Jim

Good one Badeye

Only One Satchmo  for sure.

Thanks for sharing

You play and sing magnificently

Thanks for sharing

all the songs in my songbook are fine - all the words - all the chords - Chord pro format

none of the songs I had on the songwriter forum that were in chordpro format are there intact - only a few lines and then they are cut off and not in the chordie pro format

I know you guys are working hard to resolve bugs, but I just want to know if you can tell me if there is going to be a recovery of the songs in songwriting or not.

that's what I'd like to know as well
is there a way to get back to old site ?
