Folksong: The Ash Grove



Because of furlough and moving, we started this school year off late, but we're not really even trying to catch up.  So even though The Ash Grove is supposed to be the folksong for October according to the AO Folksong schedule, we're quite fond of doing things at our own pace. We're singing Ash Grove right now! 

I put together a page for our Family Music Book and thought y'all might like to use it too.  Here it is, another fine Fisher Academy printable: The Ash Grove


Here are the chords for guitar:
Part A
G--|G--|C--|D--|G--|C--|D--|G--:||

Part B
G--|G--|Am--|D--|G--|G--|D--|D7--|
G--|G--|C--|D--|G--|C--|D--|G--||


Helpful Links:
My favorite Ash Grove link from Music-for-music-teachers.com
Youtube for sing-along (lyrics are on the screen & he sings quite slow, so it's easy to keep up!)
Lively musical rendition with bagpipes

We liked this one better than November's anyway so we just sort of stuck with it. lol now it's all Christmas, all the time for awhile. January's song is well loved too, so we won't mind the transition.

This is definitely one of my favorite folk songs so far...and I loved that a piano score was available over on that music-for-music-teachers link.

Have fun! :)
