We all know that mudcat has a data base of 8000 songs and that is a lot I wonder where there are other data bases of other songs with words and music

thanks again Ron

There are thousands of lyric sites. Click here for the tip of the iceberg.

There is also a myriad of sights with guitar chords and/or tabs. Just go into a search engine (dogpile, google, etc) and type in "guitar tabs". You will be amazed at what you find.

I have a few lyrics databases listed in the FAQ:

• OLGA.net Search Engine (rock)
  
• Cowpie (country)
  
• Lyrics World (pop songs)
  
• www.lerenti.com (don't know about this one - maybe Jeff or one of the Clones added it)
  
• Rabid Squirrel's Jazz Archive ("old standards")
  
• Kididdles (children's music).

There's a PermaThread called Folk Musician and Songwriter Links (click) - lots of the sites on that list have lyrics.

I've just started a lyric site for bluegrass and related lyrics. Some of my lyrics are not on other sites. I've got well over 10,000 lyrics but it's taking me a long time to put them on. I want to share them with anyone interested.Click here

Click lyrics; then Fiddle tunes. I'm up the the letter G.

Richie, I click bluegrass lyrics and get a blank page (with message done at the bottom). Not open yet?
