101 Three-Chord Songs for Guitar, Banjo, and Uke

You only need minimal playing skills and three chords–G, C, and D7–to accompany all the great songs in this innovative book. If you are just getting started or a "casual" player on a chord instrument, this book is for you. The book is bursting with a great variety of music: Old-time, bluegrass, gospel, Christmas, children's tunes, Stephen Foster, British and Celtic, cowboy, blues, and more. Because melody and lyrics are provided with every song, singers will also enjoy this wonderful collection of the world's favorite songs. Truly a book of outstanding arrangements, made playable for folks who play for their enjoyment. (Some of these songs, like "Dark Hollow" and "Way Downtown," are hard to find in print.) Guitar, uke, and five-string banjo diagrams are included for the three chords, along with tips on strumming and transposing for singers. An invaluable reference book for teachers and pros, too!
