The song is “Last House on the Street,” by the Young Dubliners. It’s a song a band my uncle used to be in played sometimes. Hillbilly chords are basic, open chords like G or C.

And in case you’re curious, you can capo in the 4th fret and do it all with G, C, F, Em, and Am.

Just a song I whipped up a couple of weeks ago. When my brother makes it into town later in February, we’re going to take a crack at recording it for realsies.

Off celebrating my anniversary this weekend (the actual anniversary was a couple of weeks ago, but my wife was sick that week). Got stuck in the snow in West Virginia right in front of the bed and breakfast where we’re staying, so that was…well, not fun, but an experience, at least.
