WHY WALK WHEN YOU CAN FLY (Mary Chapin Carpenter)
-------------------------------------------------
[I've no idea how Mary Chapin Carpenter plays this song. In concert, she
plays it with a capo on the 7th fret. Since the song is in B, that would
mean she's playing in E, and the verse chords are B E A A. She's clearly
using a very strange tuning, because I can't for the life of me figure out
how she's getting those chords out of the positions she uses. Any ideas?]
[I'm going to write these chords down in the key of G, since I know that's
where John Jennings plays them, with a capo on the 4th fret.]

In this world there's a whole lot of trouble, baby
n.c.
In this world there's a whole lot of pain

In this world there's a whole lot of trouble

But a whole lot of ground to gain
n.c.
Why take when you could be giving, why watch as the world goes by
n.c.
It's a hard enough life to be living, why walk when you can fly

Mountain Dulcimer - Dulcimerica Video Podcast #88
For real now, part two from Dulci-More 14 in Lisbon, Ohio featuring big fish, a look around Boy Scout Camp mckinley and another duet mountain dulcimer performance from Bing Futch and Butch Ross, this time with a tune from Butch's album "Moonshiner's Atlas" called "Why Walk When You Can Fly." Also featured, the return of dancing Chip and "If I Only Had A Brain" performed by Guy George, Randy Clepper and Butch. My apologies for the sound glitches - there is something amiss with my sound transfer, though this is not present in the original audio soundtrack. It might be an issue with my camera, but upon viewing the un-processed video, these sound drop-outs are not present, which is a very good thing. I'll be working on solving this problem, in the meantime - sorry for the aural interruptions!
