Im trying to play " Walk right in, sit right down" You know that 12 string ditty from the 60's . I cant find the chords for it, or a proper song for me to try and play it by ear....anyone help me? So far, I've found some listings for sheet music (as in "buy"), and this: The “E-C#7-F#7-B7” Ragtime Progression was popular in the early 1900s. The Ragtime Progression follows the Circle of Fifths movement and is similar to the Standard Changes except the “C#m” and “F#m” chords are substituted for their respective Dominant 7th Chord Qualities to create a harder bouncier sounding progression. Bruce Channel’s 1962 hit Hey! Baby, the Rooftop Singers’ 1963 Walk Right In, and Arlo Guthrie’s 1967 Alice’s Restaurant employed this turn of the century chord sequence.....www.angelfire.com/fl4/moneychords/ragtime.htmlAlso found some chords and a brief discussion about what key it was really in, at www.guitarnotes.com/forum/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=11;t=000019;p=I guess the best-known version was the one that was on the "Forrest Gump" soundtrack, by The Rooftop Singers. It hit the pop scene in 1963, but actually goes back to 1930. staxrecords.free.fr/cannon.htmAnother shot of Amazingly Arcane Information from Professor Trivia
