WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Hoyt Axton - Oh Im A Good Old Rebel Ukulele | Ver. 1
This is an old American Civil War song written obviously by a confederate soldier. It
me awhile to figure out the exact chords because the one other tab i found was completely
But this here is completely right.
And because this is an old folk song go ahead and feel free to change the lyrics however
feel when you play it. Folk music will never die. Enjoy!
