Capt Thighbiter Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 Pretty sure he means Skip Henderson's tune Billy Bones. I had the opportunity to play with Skip a bit at St. Augustine Pirate Gathering last year and forgot to ask him for the chords etc. How I regret that! He is real trip, we talked with him between flights at the airport for an hour! Pirate music at it's best, from 1650 onwards The Brigands
hurricane Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 It's on iTunes. You just can pull the chords off of it by playing along. It shouldn't take more than three run throughs to figure out the progression. -- Hurricane ______________________________________________________________________ http://piratesofthecoast.com/images/pyracy-logo1.jpg Captain of The Pyrates of the Coast Author of "Memoirs of a Buccaneer: 30 Year Before the Mast" (Published in Fall 2011) Scurrilous Rogue Stirrer of Pots Fomenter of Mutiny Bon Vivant & Roustabout Part-time Carnival Barker Certified Ex-Wife Collector Experienced Drinking Companion "I was screwed.
