Amazing Grace" is a Christian hymn published in 1779, with words written in 1772 by the English poet and Anglican clergyman John Newton (1725–1807). It is an immensely popular hymn, particularly in the United States, where it is used for both religious and secular purposes. Newton wrote the words from personal experience. He grew up without any particular religious conviction, but his life's path was formed by a variety of twists and coincidences that were often put into motion by others' reactions to what they took as his recalcitrant insubordination. He was pressed (conscripted) into service in the Royal Navy. After leaving the service, he became involved in the Atlantic slave trade. In 1748, a violent storm battered his vessel off the coast of County Donegal, Ireland, so severely that he called out to God for mercy. This moment marked his spiritual conversion but he continued slave trading until 1754 or 1755, when he ended his seafaring altogether. He began studying Christian theology and later became an abolitionist. Tune Basics is the popular music education series created by #musician/content creator Kerin Gedge (That's Me).

Genesis 28:11–12 can be translated as follows: "So he came to a certain place and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. And he took one of the stones of that place and put it at his head, and he lay down in that place to sleep. Then he dreamed, and behold, a ladder was set up on the earth, and its top reached to heaven; and there the angels of God were ascending and descending on it..." The hymn is well known, among other uses, as the alleged last song the band on RMS Titanic played before the ship sank and was sung by the crew and passengers of the SS Valencia as it sank off the Canadian coast in 1906. For more visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nearer,_My_God,_to_Thee The lyrics to the hymn are as follows: Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee! E'en though it be a cross that raiseth me; Still all my song shall be nearer, my God, to Thee, Chorus: Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee! Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down, Darkness be over me, my rest a stone; Yet in my dreams I'd be nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee! There let the way appear steps unto heav'n; All that Thou sendest me in mercy giv'n; Angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee! Then with my waking thoughts bright with Thy praise, Out of my stony griefs Bethel I'll raise; So by my woes to be nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee! Or if on joyful wing, cleaving the sky, Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upwards I fly, Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee! A sixth verse was later added to the hymn by Edward Henry Bickersteth Jr. as follows:[1] There in my Father's home, safe and at rest, There in my Saviour's love, perfectly blest; Age after age to be, nearer my God to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!

This praise song about the action of the Holy Spirit is sometimes attributed to L(Louis?) Casebolt, but no further information about them has been located. Hymn-books which it has been published in include: Songs of Praise, Scripture in Song, New Zealand, 1973 Scripture in Song, Songs of Praise, Volume 1, New Zealand, 1979 These both state that the author is unknown, and that the arrangement (not the underlying tune / words) is copyright Scripture in Song USA, 1972. The song, credited to Betty Pulkingham and L Casebolt was recorded on the Songs of Praise, Album 3 released under the Word of God label in 1977 (ref). It was also included in the 1978 album Rejoice with the Fisherfolk - and the sleeve material of this recording credits verse 1 to L Casebolt, and verses 2-6 to Betty Pulkingham (ref). It is not clear when, or by who, the chorus and actions were added. There are at least two variations of these which have been recorded. The song has been translated to various languages, including Tongan (ref), and one recording on YouTube shows an adapted version being sung at at 21st century vacation bible school.

These TABS are for a Tremolo Harmonica with 24 holes / 48 tones. If you find they are moving too fast then please slow the video play back speed down or press pause so you are able to master each phrase before moving on. So now, a little bit about this song and its history (thanks wikipedia!) In 1910, in Bath, Somerset, the English lawyer and lyricist Frederic Weatherly initially wrote the words to "Danny Boy" to a tune other than "Londonderry Air". After his Irish-born sister-in-law Margaret Enright Weatherly (known as Jess) in the United States sent him a copy of "Londonderry Air" in 1913 (an alternative version of the story has her singing the air to him in 1912 with different lyrics), Weatherly modified the lyrics of "Danny Boy" to fit the rhyme and meter of "Londonderry Air". Weatherly gave the song to the vocalist Elsie Griffin, who made it one of the most popular songs of the new century. In 1915, Ernestine Schumann-Heink produced the first recording of "Danny Boy". Jane Ross of Limavady is credited with collecting the melody of "Londonderry Air" in the mid-19th century from a musician she encountered. Personally I've never even heard of Londonderry Air, but if you're looking for a harmonica lesson on how to play Londonderry Air then this is the tutorial for you I guess! The original lyrics by Frederick E. Weatherly wen something like this. Oh, Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling From glen to glen, and down the mountain side. The summer's gone, and all the roses falling, It's you, It's you must go and I must bide. But come ye back when summer's in the meadow, Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow, It's I'll be there in sunshine or in shadow,— Oh, Danny boy, Oh Danny boy, I love you so! But when ye come, and all the flowers are dying, If I am dead, as dead I well may be, Ye'll come and find the place where I am lying, And kneel and say an Avé there for me. And I shall hear, though soft you tread above me, And all my grave will warmer, sweeter be, For you will bend and tell me that you love me, And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me! That sounds about right. As for what the lyrics actually mean you can read more about this classic song by visiting https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danny_Boy Now as for the various other things in this tutorial, the crazy gold bathing Leprechaun was drawn by me. That's right, I drew that. It was borrowed from my story The Majestic Unicorn which for the curious among you can be read hear https://kertoons.blogspot.com/2014/03/the-majestic-unicorn.html If enough people ask me, maybe I'll make a video based on it one day. I would have done it already but no one seems to like my songs/stories, they just want me for my tutorials. The wonderful green clover patch was pulled from Timothy Dykes on Unsplash https://unsplash.com/@timothycdykes I drew the rainbow myself too. The special effects. Those were me, with a little help from Adobe Audition and the audio, all recorded by me on Logic Pro X and using my snow ball blue, for the most part... well, for the some part... can't remember what the name of my other mic is. Anyway, if you are the impatient type and can't wait, and I mean really can't actually wait for reals, until my next video comes out then don't forget, you can check out my TABS page, there's a link in the description below, and until next time stay tuned. https://tunebasics.blogspot.com/2019/09/harmonica-tabs.html See what I did there? ;)

In 2010, members of the Western Writers of America chose it as one of the Top 100 western songs of all time... for more details on this classic American tune visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_on_the_Range Cowboy photo by Polina Portnaya on Unsplash https://unsplash.com/@greenjelloandredjello except for the face that is, that's my face, I stuck that on myself, along with the handy tin whistle... the original photo is much better!

If you find they are moving too fast then please slow the video play back speed down or press pause so you are able to master each phrase before moving on. So now, a little bit about this song and its history (thanks wikipedia!) In 1910, in Bath, Somerset, the English lawyer and lyricist Frederic Weatherly initially wrote the words to "Danny Boy" to a tune other than "Londonderry Air". After his Irish-born sister-in-law Margaret Enright Weatherly (known as Jess) in the United States sent him a copy of "Londonderry Air" in 1913 (an alternative version of the story has her singing the air to him in 1912 with different lyrics), Weatherly modified the lyrics of "Danny Boy" to fit the rhyme and meter of "Londonderry Air". Weatherly gave the song to the vocalist Elsie Griffin, who made it one of the most popular songs of the new century. In 1915, Ernestine Schumann-Heink produced the first recording of "Danny Boy". Jane Ross of Limavady is credited with collecting the melody of "Londonderry Air" in the mid-19th century from a musician she encountered. Personally I've never even heard of Londonderry Air, but if you're looking for a harmonica lesson on how to play Londonderry Air then this is the tutorial for you I guess! The original lyrics by Frederick E. Weatherly wen something like this. Oh, Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling From glen to glen, and down the mountain side. The summer's gone, and all the roses falling, It's you, It's you must go and I must bide. But come ye back when summer's in the meadow, Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow, It's I'll be there in sunshine or in shadow,— Oh, Danny boy, Oh Danny boy, I love you so! But when ye come, and all the flowers are dying, If I am dead, as dead I well may be, Ye'll come and find the place where I am lying, And kneel and say an Avé there for me. And I shall hear, though soft you tread above me, And all my grave will warmer, sweeter be, For you will bend and tell me that you love me, And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me! That sounds about right. As for what the lyrics actually mean you can read more about this classic song by visiting https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danny_Boy Now as for the various other things in this tutorial, the crazy gold bathing Leprechaun was drawn by me. That's right, I drew that. It was borrowed from my story The Majestic Unicorn which for the curious among you can be read hear https://kertoons.blogspot.com/2014/03/the-majestic-unicorn.html If enough people ask me, maybe I'll make a video based on it one day. I would have done it already but no one seems to like my songs/stories, they just want me for my tutorials. The wonderful green clover patch was pulled from Timothy Dykes on Unsplash https://unsplash.com/@timothycdykes I drew the rainbow myself too. The special effects. Those were me, with a little help from Adobe Audition and the audio, all recorded by me on Logic Pro X and using my snow ball blue, for the most part... well, for the some part... can't remember what the name of my other mic is. Anyway, if you are the impatient type and can't wait, and I mean really can't actually wait for reals, until my next video comes out then don't forget, you can check out my TABS page, there's a link in the description below, and until next time stay tuned. https://tunebasics.blogspot.com/2019/09/harmonica-tabs.html See what I did there? ;)

"God Defend New Zealand" was written as a poem in the 1870s by Irish-born, Victorian-raised immigrant Thomas Bracken of Dunedin.[3] A competition to compose music for the poem was held in 1876 by The Saturday Advertiser and judged by three prominent Melbourne musicians, with a prize of ten guineas.[4] The winner of the competition was the Vandemonian-born John Joseph Woods of Lawrence, Otago, who composed the melody in a single sitting the evening after finding out about the competition.[5] The song was first performed at the Queen's Theatre, Princes Street in Dunedin, on Christmas Day, 1876.[4] In February 1878, sheet music was published.[6] A Māori version of the song was produced in 1878 by Thomas Henry Smith of Auckland, a judge in the Native Land Court, on request of Premier George Edward Grey.[4] A copy of the Māori lyrics, using Aotearoa for its title, was printed in Otago newspapers in October 1878.[6] In Smith's original text the word "whakarangona" was used to translate 'hear', rather than the modern "whakarongona".[7] In 1897, Premier Richard Seddon presented a copy of words and music to Queen Victoria.[4] The song became increasingly popular during the early 20th century, and in 1940 the New Zealand government bought the copyright and made it New Zealand's 'national hymn' in time for that year's centennial celebrations.[6] It was used at the British Empire Games from 1950 onwards, and first used at the Olympics during the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich.[note 1] Following the performance at the Munich games, a campaign began to have the song adopted as the national anthem.[9] "God Save the Queen" was New Zealand's sole national anthem until the 1970s.[9] In May 1973 a remit to change the New Zealand flag, declare a New Zealand republic and change the national anthem was voted down by the Labour Party at their national conference.[10] In 1976 Garth Henry Latta from Dunedin presented a petition to Parliament asking "God Defend New Zealand" to be made the national anthem. With the permission of Queen Elizabeth II, it was gazetted as the country's second national anthem on 21 November 1977, on equal standing with "God Save the Queen".[11] An alternative official arrangement for massed singing by Maxwell Fernie was announced by the Minister of Internal Affairs, Allan Highet on 31 May 1979.[12] Woods' original score was written in the key of A-flat major (concert pitch) and was better suited for solo and choral singing; Fernie's arrangement changed the key down a semitone to G major. Until the 1990s, only the first verse of the English version was commonly sung. The first public singing of the anthem in both Maori and English was by singers Vicky Lee and Cyndi Joe at the Kiwis-Britain league test in 1992.[13] A public debate emerged after only the first Māori verse was sung by Hinewehi Mohi at the 1999 Rugby World Cup match between the All Blacks and England, and it then became conventional to sing both the Māori and English first verses one after the other.

Here are some more Tabs for the tremolo players out there, only this time for those of you who play the 16 hole/ 32 Tone variety. Some of you may have noticed by now that I have been taking a break from my usual style and format for my tutorials. It's not a conspiracy, it's just that lately I haven't had much time to spend on content, because I still work for a living. So making these helps me to help you and me at the same time. I will be making more of the same old tutorials eventually as my schedule allows! Please let me know if these TABS videos are useful though, I'd really like to know! "My Bonnie lies over the ocean" is a traditional Scottish folk song that remains popular in Western culture. Although the song's origin is uncertain, its original subject could possibly be Charles Edward Stuart ('Bonnie Prince Charlie'):[1] after the defeat of the Prince at the Battle of Culloden in 1746 and his subsequent exile, his Jacobite supporters could have sung this song or one like it in his honour; and thanks to the ambiguity of the term "Bonnie", which can refer to a woman as well as to a man, they could pretend it was a love song. The English traditional singing group The Watersons, on their 1975 album "For Pence and Spicy Ale" sing a song from the English tradition called "My Barney Lies over the Ocean" which has a slightly different melody and is said to be an antecedent. In the liner notes for the song, the musicologist A. L. Lloyd says about "My Barney": "A stage song favoured by Irish comedians from the 1860s on. During the 1880s, apparently on American university campuses, close harmony groups remade it into the better-known—and even more preposterous[clarification needed]—'My Bonny Lies over the Ocean'. Watersons had this from Bob Davenport who learnt it from a Frank Quinn 78."[2] In 1881, under the duo of pseudonyms H.J. Fuller and J.T. Wood, Charles E. Pratt published sheet music for "Bring Back My Bonnie to Me".[3][4][5] Theodore Raph in his 1964 book American Song Treasury: 100 Favorites, writes that people were requesting the song at sheet music stores in the 1870s, and Pratt was convinced to publish a version of it under the pseudonyms, and the song became a big hit, especially popular with college singing groups but also popular for all group singing situations... for more details check out https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Bonnie_Lies_over_the_Ocean Ocean photo taken by Pawel Nolbert on UnSplash https://unsplash.com/@hellocolor

Here are the TABS for Turkey in the Straw for a Chromatic Harmonica with 20 Tones/10 holes. "Turkey in the Straw" is an American folk song that first gained popularity in the early 19th century. "Turkey in the Straw" was initially a popular tune for fiddle players as early as 1820. The first part of the song is a contrafactum of the ballad "My Grandmother Lived on Yonder Little Green", published in 1857 by Horace Waters, 333 Broadway, New York, which itself is a contrafactum of the Irish ballad "The Old Rose Tree" which was published by at least 1795 in Great Britain For anyone interested this is part of my new series of tutorials which will consist of me presenting the raw tabs for various public domain tunes. I get a lot of feed back from viewers who really just want the tabs or the very basics and aren't really interested in what the notes are and want to be able to just follow the numbers. This harmonica is in the key of C, but if your harmonica is in a different key the tabs will still be exactly the same. Just turn the volume down if and follow the finger and the arrows. Fun fact - here in New Zealand this song is known as "Do your ears hang low", which is a slightly different tune but I think we must have stolen it from the Americans and changed the lyrics to suit our kiwi strangeness! Unless of course it was the Australians, I actually don't know where "Do your ears hang low" even came from!

The aim of this series is to gradually walk you, the viewer, or at the very least marginally interested person, through the entire process of my drawing, which begins here on my computer and will hopefully end with my putting the last drop of paint onto canvas... that part I'm not so sure about. In any case, if you don't want to sit through the full 20 mins there will be a time lapsed video later on down the track which will bundle the entire process into about 10 mins. As of typing this I have spent nearly 40 hours on this picture, so it's taking a lot of dedication and determination on my part. I'm not entirely sure what is driving my new found interest in art as opposed to music, but come along for the ride and let's see where this ends up! If you're waiting for some more harmonica tutorials, don't worry! There are indeed more coming soon! I wouldn't want anyone of you to assume that just because I'm spending so much time on this now that I'm not spending time making tutorials.... quite the contrary, this project, in a way is becoming my break from my musical pursuits, and in fact, might be the very thing that is keeping me from giving up on music all together! I think I've been getting close to creator fatigue or burn out or maybe I'm just low on blood sugar and need a snack. That last part sounds pretty good... I do need a snack. If you haven't already, please go back and check out part one of this series!

In this video you will find just the tabs for that song that everyone knows - Happy Birthday on a Diatonic Harmonica. Just follow the finger and do like the arrows show you, nice and slow too so you shouldn't have any trouble following along! Happy Birthday to You", also known as "Happy Birthday", is a song traditionally sung to celebrate a person's birthday. According to the 1998 Guinness World Records, it is the most recognized song in the English language, followed by "For He's a Jolly Good Fellow". The song's base lyrics have been translated into at least 18 languages.[1] The melody of "Happy Birthday to You" comes from the song "Good Morning to All",[2] which has traditionally been attributed to American sisters Patty and Mildred J. Hill in 1893,[3][4] although the claim that the sisters composed the tune is disputed.[5] The song is in the public domain in the United States and the European Union. Warner Chappell Music had previously claimed copyright on the song in the US and collected licensing fees for its use; in 2015 the copyright claim was declared invalid and Warner Chappell agreed to pay back $14 million in licensing fees.
