WORRIED MAN BLUES
Beginner BA1 - Unit 2 (Practice) Song-Melody
Traditional American
Accordion Notation
Although you may be a "beginner" on the button accordion, you already know lots of tunes, perhaps including Worried Man Blues. If so, you already have a sense of how long to hold each treble note, and where to put the emphasis. You just need to get use to it on the button accordion.
Either row: Buttons 5 to8*
(Place first finger at button 5 and little finger at 8, covering all the notes without having to change your finger positions.) |
Verse 1:
6 6 6* 5* 6 6*
You fill up my sen-ses
5* 5* 5* 6* 6 .5 4
Like a night in a for - est
5 5 5 5* 6* 6 6*
Like the moun-tains in spring-time
5* 5* 5* 6* 6 6*
Like a walk in the rain
6 6 6 6* 5* 6 6*
Like a storm in the des-ert
5* 5* 5* 6* 6 5 4
Like a sleep-y blue oc-ean
5 5 5* 6* 6 6*
You fill up my sen-ses
.5* 6* 6 7* 6
Come fill me a - gain.

The lyrics can also be found in many of songbooks, for example, "The Complete Guitar Player Songbook" by Russ Shipton published by Amsco Publications of New York/London/Sydney (1989). I believe this is still in print. |
