Chris Rice - Billy Joe McGuffrey

Click here for a plain text version of this song (for better printing)

I tried playing the chords listed on the site, but they didn`t sound right on
my acoustic guitar. Mr. Rice performs the song with an electric guitar.
I wanted to pick up the song to play for my kids by the campfire. I worked out
what I thought sounded alright and was really easy. Just replace the la la las 
with the lyrics (syllables), or sing `em to the tune cuz the lyrics ain`t easy,
and you`ll get the idea. Like I said, it isn`t the original version. It`s just
super easy to play, and sounds good with acoustic.
