2Shower The People (James Taylor)F (capo 3rnd fret)
3Lovers & Fools (RAH)Gm – Lovers & Fools (RAH)
4The Weight (The Band)A – I do this a little differently, but not hugely so. I have never done the intro but will try it…

12The Letter (Joe Cocker)Am – Kind of a Joe Cocker version – at least with this kind of rhythm

17AInt No Sunshine (Bill Withers)Am
18Wagon Wheel (Darius Rucker version)A – I’d like to do this but I have to learn it first so we will see
19Getting Old (RAH)Am – Getting Old (RAH) This is a wild version and I don’t play it quite this fast but you should get the idea.
20Lucky Man (ELP)G – This is a high probability because it’s one of my “go to songs”
21Homeward Bound (Simon & Garfunkel)A
22Help Me Make It Through The Night (Krisofferson)C – I play this straight, not country swing like this and also a bit slower
23Me And Bobbie McGee (Kristofferson)A But ust as easy in G or ???
