The Best of John Denver Easy Guitar Songbook | Beginner Guitar Sheet Music with Chords and Lyrics | 20 Classic Hits Including Take Me Home Country Roads Annies Song and More Paperback – March 1, 1995

This book is great for beginner, intermediate or advanced guitar players. The sheet music shows the chords with finger placement. I had to buy the book to get the list of songs in it, so I am providing it here for others to see. These are most of John Denver's greatest hits, only a few are missing.The list of songs in this book include the following:Annie's SongBack Home AgainCalypsoEagles And Horses (I'm Flying Again)Fly AwayFollow MeFor Baby (For Bobby)For YouGoodbye AgainGrandma's Feather BedI'm SorryLeaving On A Jet PlaneLooking For SpaceMy Sweet LadyNever A DoubtPerhaps LovePoems, Prayers And PromisesRocky Mountain HighSunshine On My ShouldersTake Me Home Country RoadsThank God I'm A Country BoyWhispering JesseWild Montana Skies

THis book is exactly what I hoped it was. I don't have the reach for some of the more complex chords that the pros use. I simply wanted a book that would help me restart my hobby guitar paling . This book has it all. No complicated chords, sheet music. It can be used with both piano and Guitar. which helps with the vocals.

Good songs easy to read music. Now if I could just get my wife, to whom I gave it as a gift because she constantly plays the same pieces over and over for practice, to play something from it, I would be happy.

It’s awesome

This basic chord book shows guitar tab, melody notation, chord changes by words of the song and all verses. I love it as I'm a raw beginner and even i can play these songs. All chords to a song are presented upfront, so you know going in what ones you have to practice, which helps a lot. I tuned 2 guitars, and a friend and I can practice and play - as she sings and I don't. Definitely a good learner's book. Shows strum timing also. If you don't know guitar tab, this is not a learner's explanation for that, so use another source to learn - its pretty easy I've found. I'm totally non-musical but I love these songs of my youth!

It makes it easy to play his wonderful songs

I am a beginner to guitar although I am 50 years old. I grew up loving John Denver's music, and having this book helps bring it back to me. I especially like that the chords (fingering positions) are shown on the page with the music. Eventually I won't need them, but for today I do. I recommend this book for any beginner who loves Take me home Country Roads, Leavin' on a Jet Plane, Calypso, etc.

Each tune is on several pages, and turning pages while playing screws things up. Have to photocopy and mahe one long sheet. They should have set it up as foldouts for each tune.
