Please check me on this. Some English poet, anyway. I ain't an English major. I don't know who originally set it to music, but here goes: Auld Lang Syne F C7 Should old acquaintance be forgot F Bb And never brought to mind F C7 Should old acquaintance be forgot A Dm Gm7 C7 F And days of auld lang syne For auld lang syne, my dear, For auld lang syne, We'll take a cup o'kindness yet And days of auld lang syne The original poem has another verse, but nobody ever sings it. Special bonus (because I don't want to go back to studying yet): Melody tab e-----------5---------5------5--8--10--10--8--5-5----------5------------ b---6--5-6-----8-6-8-----6-6----------------------6--8-6-8---6-------6-- g-5------------------------------------------------------------7-7-5---- e-10--8--5-5-----------10--8--5-5--8--10--10--8--5-5---------5---------- b------------6--8-6-8--------------------------------6-8-6-8---6-------6 g----------------------------------------------------------------7-7-5-- Play with a wah-wah and very heavy distortion; it sounds cool, really. Happy new year to you all; I'm going home for break (assuming I survive exams), so I shan't be posting for a while (now, now, don't get too upset). Corrections, improvements, good karma welcome as always.
