Re: campfire songs
Hello oscar88,
To me, campfire songs need a good sing-along chorus where everybody can join in and scare off the bears. In the Public Books here on chordie you will find a whole section for Campfire Songs.
Here are some of my favorites that are sure to get everybody singing:
Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys - Willie Nelson
You Are My Sunshine - Jimmie Davis
I Got You Babe - Sonny & Cher
Home On The Range - Traditional
Your Cheatin' Heart - Hank Williams
Tupelo Honey - Van Morrison
Clementine - Traditional
Wild Horses - Rolling Stones
My Dingaling - Chuck Berry
Spanish Pipedream (Blow Up the TV) - John Prine
