Here are the words and chords for The wild Mountain Thyme, contact me with
any different/better arrangements. As far as I know it's a very old
traditional song sung in Scotland and Ireland. The Clancy made the best
recording I know of it.


G = 320033
C = X32033 (O.K. so it's really Cadd9, but I'm not gonna write that 20
times)
C/B = X2X010 (Just take your third finger down a fret and mute the D string)
Am7 = X02010
Cmaj7 = X32000 (see note below song)

If you can pull it off  replace the line C - C/B Am7 with Am7 - - Cmaj7
every sencond time, it makes it harder to sing but it puts variety in the
song.
