Note: The first note I sing is a G (on "Won't). This may not be the key typically used,

so use a capo to fit your vocal or preferred style/sound. I also wrote this as a sort of

cover, so for those who sing the sing note by note, it may not fit (see post script).

This is my first tab so I hope you enjoy it =)

P.S. I am open to critiques.

[G] [Em]

Wont play a simple melody

[C] [D]

Just like my mother sang to me,

[G] [Em]

One with good old fashioned harmony

[C] [G]

Play a simple melody

[G]

Musical demon, set your honey a’dreamin’

[Em]

Won’t you play me some rag?

[C]

Just change that classical nag

[D]

To some sweet beautiful drag

[G]

If you will play from a copy of a tune that is choppy

[Em]

You’ll get all my applause

[C]

And that is simply because

[G]

I want to listen to rag

Pretty much the same chord progression throughout the song.
