English version

Ye sons of France, awake to glory,

Hark, hark! what myriads bid you rise!

Your children, wives and white-haired grandsires.

Behold their tears and hear their cries! (repeat)

Shall hateful tyrants, mischiefs breeding,

With hireling hosts, a ruffian band,

Affright and desolate the land,

While peace and liberty lie bleeding?

To arms, to arms, ye brave!

The avenging sword unsheath,

March on, march on!

All hearts resolv'd

On victory or death!

Now, now, the dangerous storm is rolling

Which treacherous kings confederate raise!

The dogs of war, let loose, are howling,

And lo! our fields and cities blaze! (repeat) alt: And lo! our homes will soon invade!

And shall we basely view the ruin

While lawless force with guilty stride

Spreads desolation far and wide

With crimes and blood his hands embruing?

To arms, to arms, ye brave!...

With luxury and pride surrounded

The vile insatiate despots dare,

Their thirst of power and gold unbounded,

To mete and vend the light and air! (repeat)

Like beasts of burden would they load us,

Like gods would bid their slaves adore,

But man is man, and who is more?

Then shall they longer lash and goad us?

To arms, to arms, ye brave!...

O Liberty, can man resign thee

Once having felt thy generous flame?

Can dungeons, bolts or bars confine thee

Or whips thy noble spirit tame? (repeat)

Too long the world has wept, bewailing

That falsehood's dagger tyrants wield,

But freedom is our sword and shield,

And all their arts are unavailing.

To arms, to arms, ye brave!...

Dueling Banjos (tab)

Last month I put a nice play of this song. Here it is the tab I found and I paste it as I found it.

Have fun!

This song (originally called "Feuding Banjos") was made popular by the movie Deliverance. It consists of two banjos (one playing high and one playing low). Basically, the low banjo plays the notes first, and the high banjo repeats the same notes an octave higher. This would be fun for two harmonica players to try. Listen to the midi if you're not familiar with it. LB = low banjo (a guitar was used in the movie) HB = high banjo LB: -2 -2 -2 -3'' -3 +4 -4 +4 -3 HB: +6 +6 +6 -6 -7 +7 -8 +7 -7 LB: -2 -2 -2 -3'' -3 +4 -4 +4 -3 HB: +6 +6 +6 -6 -7 +7 -8 +7 -7 LB: +4 +4 +4 -4 +5 -5 +6 -5 +5 HB: +7 +7 +7 -8 +8 -9 +9 -9 +8 LB: -2 -2 -2 -3'' -3 +4 -4 +4 -3 HB: +6 +6 +6 -6 -7 +7 -8 +7 -7 LB: -4 -4 -4 +5 +5o +6 -6 +6 +5o HB: -8 -8 -8 +8 +9' +9 -10 +9 +9' LB: -3 -3 -3 +4 -3 HB: -7 -7 -7 +7 -7 LB: -3 -3 -3 +4 -3 HB: -7 -7 -7 +7 -7 [this is the popular part everybody associates with the movie]: LB: -3 +4 -4 -3 +4 -3'' -3 -2 -3'' HB: -7 +7 -8 -7 +7 -6 -7 +6 -6 LB: -3 +4 -4 -3 +4 -3'' -3 -2 -3'' HB: -7 +7 -8 -7 +7 -6 -7 +6 -6 LB: -1 -2 -2 -3'' -3 -2 -3 -3'' HB: -4 +6 +6 -6 -7 +6 +6 -6 -7 _______________________________________________ [the next part is some incredibly quick playing; personally, I'd stop playing here, but I tried to tab the rest of the song; I believe a fair amount of this is actually played by just the HB while the LB actually plays either chords or repeats the first 2 lines below; I tried to tab it by high and low lines]: [play 2x] HB: +4 +5 +4 +5 +4 [play 2x] LB: -2 -3 -2 -3 -2 [play 2x] HB: -4 +5o -4 +5o -4 LB: -2 -3 -2 -3' -2 +2 -1 -1 [play 2x] HB: +4 +5 +4 +5 +4 [play 2x] LB: -2 -3 -2 -3 -2 [play 2x] HB: -4 +5o -4 +5o -4 LB: -2 -3 -2 -3' -2 +2 -1 -1 [play 2x] HB: -6 -7 +7 -8 +7 -7 LB: -2 -3 +4 -4 +4 -3 HB: -8 +8 -9 +9 -9 +8 LB: -4 +5 -5 +6 -5 +5 HB: -6 -7 +7 -8 +7 -7 LB: -2 -3 +4 -4 +4 -3 HB: +8 +9' +9 -10 +9 +9' LB: +5 +5o +6 -6 +6 +5o [play 2x] HB: -7 -7 -7 +7 -7 LB: -3 -3 -3 +4 -3 [play 2x] HB: -10 +10' +10 -10 +10' +9 -10 -9 +9 LB: -3'' -3 +4 -3'' -3 -2 -3'' -2'' -2 LB: -1 -2 -2 -3'' -3 -2 -2 -3' -3 HB: +7 -8 +8 -9 +9 -9 +8 -8 +7 -8 +8 -9 +9 -9 +8 -8 +6 -6 -7 +7 -8 +7 -7 -6 +6 -6 -7 +7 -8 +7 -7 -6 -8 +8 +9' +9 -10 +9 +9' +8 -8 +8 +9' +9 -10 +9 +9' +8 +6 -6 -7 +7 -8 +7 -7 -6 +6 +7 -8 +8 -9 +9 -9 +8 -8 +7 -8 +8 -9 +9 -9 +8 -8 +6 -6 -7 +7 -8 +7 -7 -6 +6 -6 -7 +7 -8 +7 -7 -6 -8 +8 +9' +9 -10 +9 +9' +8 -8 +8 +9' +9 -10 +9 +9' +8 -9 +9 -10 +10' +10 +10' -10 +9 -9 +7 +7 +7 +7 +7 +6 [play 2x] HB: +4 +5 +4 +5 +4 [play 2x] LB: -2 -3 -2 -3 -2 [play 2x] HB: -4 +5o -4 +5o -4 LB: -2 -3 -2 -3' -2 +2 -1 -1 [play 2x] HB: +4 +5 +4 +5 +4 [play 2x] LB: -2 -3 -2 -3 -2 [play 2x] HB: -4 +5o -4 +5o -4 LB: -2 -3 -2 -3' -2 +2 -1 -1 [end w/ banjos playing their lines at the same time]: HB: +10'' +10 +10'' -10 +9 -9 +10'' +10 +10'' -10 +9 -9 -8 -9 -10 +10' +8 +9 +10'' -10 LB: -6' -6 +6 -5 -4 +4 -6' -6 +6 -5 -4 +4 -3 -4 -5 -6 -7o +5 +6 -5

No woman, no cry

Another Bob Marley song...

+7 -7 +7 -7 -6 +8 -9 +8 -8 +7
No, woman, no cry; No, woman, no cry;

+7 -7 -8 +7 -6 +8 -9 +8 -8 +7
No, woman, no cry; No, woman, no cry.

+7 +7 +8 +8 +9 +9 +8 +8 +8 +8 +7 -6
Said - said - said: I remember when we used to sit

+8 +8 +8 +8 -8 +8 -7 -8 +7
In the government yard in trenchtown,

+8+8 +8 +8 +9 +8 -9 +9 +8 +7
O-ba - ob-a-serv-ing the hy-po-crites

+6 +7 -8 +8 +8 +8 +8 +8 -9 +8 -8 +7
As they would mingle with the good people we meet.

+8 +9 +9 +9 +8 +7 +9 +9 +8 +7 -6
Good friends we ha--d, oh, good friends weve los-t

+8 -8 +7 +8
Along the wa----y.

+8 +9 +9 +9 +8 -9 +9 +8 +9 +8 +7
In this great future, you cant forget your past;

+8 -8 +8 -9 +8 -7 +7
So dry your tears, I say.

+7 -7 +7 -7 -6 +8 -9 +8 -9 +7
No, woman, no cry; No, woman, no cry.

+8 +8 +8 -8 -7 +7 +7 +7 -6
ere, little darlin, dont shed no tears:

+8 -9 +8 -9 +7
No, woman, no cry.

+7 +7 +8 +8 +9 +9 +8 +8 +8 +8 +7 +7 -6
Said - said - said: I remember when-a we used to sit

+8 +8 +8 +8 -8 +8 -7 -8 +7
In the government yard in trenchtown.

+8 +8 +8 +9 +8 +9 +8 +9 +8 +7
And then georgie would make the fi-re light,

+6 +7 -8 +8 +8 -9 -9 -9 +8 -8 +7
As it was logwood burnin through the night

+8 +8 +9 +9 +8 -10 +9 +8
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge,

+7 +8 +7 -8 +7 +8 +7
Of which Ill share with you; Ooh!!

+8 +9 +8 -9 +8+8 +9 -9
My feet is my only carriage,

+8 -8 +8 +9 +8 +8 +7
So Ive got to push on through.

+6 +7 -8 +8 +7 -8
But while Im gone, I mean:

+7 +7 +7 -6 +6 +7 +7 -3
Everythings gonna be all right!

+7 +7 +7 -6 +6 +7 +7 -3
Everythings gonna be all right!

+7 +7 +7 -6 +6 +7 +7 -3
Everythings gonna be all right!

+7 +7 +7 -6 +6 +7 +7 -3
Everythings gonna be all right!

+7 +7 +7 -6 +6 +7 +7 -3
Everythings gonna be all right!

+7 +7 +7 -6 +6 +7 +7 +7 +7
Everythings gonna be all right, now!

+7 +7 +7 -6 +6 +7 +7 -3
Everythings gonna be all right!

+8 -9 +8 -8 +7
So, woman, no cry;

-9 -10 +9 +8 +8 -9 +8 +8 +7
No - no, woman no woman, no cry.

+8 +8 +8 +8 -7 -7 +7 -6 +7 +7
Woman, little sister, dont shed no tears;

+8 -9 +8 -8 +7
No, woman, no cry.

(LEAD BREAK)

+8 +9 +9 +8 +8 +8 +8 +7 +7 -6
I remember when-a we used to sit

Hora dels adeus (Auld Lang Syne)

Another of my tabs! "L'hora dels adéus" is a beautiful song to say good bye. I made the tab from the Catalan version but the song is originally Scottish with the title "Auld Lang Syne".


4 -5 5 -5 -6 6
És l'hora dels adéus

-5 6 -6 6 -5
I ens hem de dir:

-5 -6 7 -8__-8
Adéu-siau!

-8 7 -6 -6 -5 6
Germans, dem-nos les mans,

-5 6 -6 6 -5 , -4 -4 4 -5__-5'
Senyal d'amor, senyal de pau.

---

4 -5 5 -5 -6 6
El nostre comiat diu:

-6 6 -5

A reveure,

-5 -6 7 -8__-8
si a Déu plau!

-8 7 -6 -6 -5 6

I ens estrenyem ben fort,

-6 6 -5

Mentre diem:

-4 -4 4 -5__-5'
Adéu-siau.

---

-8 7 -6 -6 -5 6 -5 6
No és un adéu per sempre

-6 6 -5 , -4 -4 4 -5__-5'
És sols l'adéu per un instant,

---

4 -5 -5 -5 -6 6
El cercle refarem

-6 6 -5 -5 -6 7 -8__-8
I fins potser serà més gran.

-8 7 -6 -6 -5 6 -5 6
La llei que ens agermana,

-6 6 -5 -4 -4 4 -5
Ens fa més forts i ens fa més grans.

Auld Lang Syne
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And days of auld lang syne?
Refrain
For auld lang syne, my dear
For auld lang syne
We'll take a cup of kindness yet
For auld lang syne
We twa hae run about the braes
And pou'd the gowans fine meaning: pulled daisies
But we've wander'd mony a weary fitt : foot
Sin' auld lang syne. : long ago
We twa hae paidl'd in the burn
Frae morning sun till dine meaning: dinner time
But seas between us braid hae roar'd : broad
Sin' auld lang syne.
And there's a hand, my trusty feire
And gie's a hand o' thine
And we'll tak a right gude-willie waught
For auld lang syne.
And surely ye'll be your pint-stowp
And surely I'll be mine
And we'll tak a cup o'kindness yet
For auld lang syne.
