T H E I R I S H M A N D O L A C H O R D C H A R T (for instruments tuned DAea) Version 0.0, by Han Speek, Oct 7, 1997 Chords are notated in tab form, lowest string left, highest right, one chord per line. I have also listed the notes actually played, in ABC(*) notation, and tried to name each form. Any corrections, additions or other comments are most welcome. Han.

You still haven't got enough chords? Go off, practise !) *) The ABC notation is the music notation as used by Chris Walshaw's abc2mtex program. Info on this program (and the program itself) can be found at the ABC homepage: http://www.gre.ac.uk/~c.walshaw/abc/. **) Based on this chord, try the following chord progression for the typical Donal Lunny sound: 0 5 5 0, 0 3 3 0, 0 2 3 0 The last two forms are not officially chords, but it's the sort of thing Donal would use. Play with it a bit, see what it sounds like. ***) The Gsus4 chords (added in version 1.2) work very nicely in progressions like 7 0 0 0, 7 4 0 0, 7 5 0 0, 7 4 0 0, 7 0 0 0, 7 4 0 0, 2 2 0 2. This can sometimes be substituted for a long phrase of just G chords (leading into an D chord here). +) The C/E chord in this form is typically used to "lead into" a F chord, like 0 5 2 0, 4 5 2 0, 5 5 3 0, 4 5 2 0, 0 5 2 0, 4 5 2 0, 2 0 0 0. Like the previous note, this can be used to "liven up" a long stretch of C chord (leading into G in the example given).
