Thomas Balinger The Ukulele Songbook Shanties & Songs of the Sea Far-away oceans, perilous storms, bold explorers, bloodthirsty pirates and treasures hidden on mysterious islands - but likewise the hopes and the fears of friends, lovers and families left back home on dry land - have made for fascinating and evocative stories since the day men caught a glimpse of the deep blue sea. But there's more to the ocean's fascination than just stories and myths. It also spawned its very own kind of music: the Shanties - songs of the wind and the waves, of hard work on the seven seas, of romantic buccaneers and brutal skippers harrying their crews to the marrow. In this book you'll find a collection of shanties known and loved all over the world, arranged for easy Ukulele in standard C tuning (C-G-E-A). Of course, there's classics" like Banks of Sacramento, Blow the man down or What shall we do with the drunken sailor, but you'll also encounter some songs not as common and maybe some you might never have heard before. All songs in musical notation with chord symbols plus melody TAB - you don't have to read music to start playing right away! Whether you want to pick the melody, strum the chords or just need the complete lyrics: you'll find everything you need on these pages.
