Old Macdonald Chords & Tabs
Tabbed by: GuitarMan147 (Perry el Ornitorrinco...)
Hello everyone, just saw that this song can be a lot simpler than some of
the other tabs for it I've seen are - this was the first song I learned on
guitar - a few years ago now XD
Obviously you can do this song in loads of keys so if you want, you can
just use another tab, or put a capo on, or change the string you start
on... :L
Anyway, if you play the tune, you'll know where all the lyrics go.
Basically, it's a simple song, great for beginners to try, and you can
change it a lot to suit yourself :D
Hope it helps :)
Here are the lyrics, and just because it's the one I've heard most, I'm
going to use 'cow' and 'moo' as the animal and animal noise, but obviously
you can change that :L
Old MacDonald had a farm, ee-aye-ee-aye-oh.
And on that farm he had a cow, ee-aye-ee-aye-oh.
With a "moo-moo" her, and a "moo-moo" there,
Here a "moo", there a "moo", everywhere a "moo-moo".
Old MacDonald had a farm, ee-aye-ee-aye-oh.
