I'm posting a song a day from the Rise Up Singing songbook, which you may or may not know. It's a pretty invaluable resource for song leaders, and useful for anyone who likes to sing in groups. The book doesn't include the melodies to the songs, just the lyrics and some chords, so I’m trying hard to find the tunes I don’t know, learn them, and post them on YouTube for anyone to learn. That’s where these videos are hosted; the blog is just pretty packaging.

Lord Franklin / Lady Franklin's Lament
Rise Up Singing chapter: Seas & Sailors, p.203
D - Bm - / Em - A - / D - G D - / - A - G D -
In the first verse, third line I play this: / D - G D - G D - /
But you'll figure it out. The website I mention with another, perhaps more traditional, recording of this song, is here: http://www.acousticmusicarchive.com/lord_franklin.html
