Hi, Greg. . .
Here are a couple of Wilf Carter (Montana Slim) songs that I particularly
like. I love Wilf's pure, simple yodeling style, and I've included the
yodeling as I transcribed it from his recordings.
DREAMY LULLABY YODEL
Wilf Carter (Montana Slim)
slow ² time
[E] Riding along - 'neath a [A]pale silvery moon
The [E] rangeland, a dreamland - will [F#7] fade all too [B7] soon.
[E] Linger awhile - while [A] I hum a [G#] tune,
A [E] dreamy [B7] Lullaby [E] Yodel.
Don't roll on by - [A] I'm lonely, too.
[E] You'll be my pal 'way up [F#7] there in -- the [B7] blue
I've [E] no one to love - no [A] one - to love [G#] me
But [E] dreamy [B7] Lullaby [E] Yodel
[E] Bye [B7]hay ho [E] lay-ee,
Ho [F#7]lay-ee dee-[B7] ay, [E] lay-ee dee-[B7] oh
[E] Bye [B7]hay ho [E] lay-ee,
Ho [F#7]lay-ee dee-[B7] oh, oh lay-ee [E]dee.
