Songbook

There are hundreds of songs suitable for camps and campfires, and although my songbook runs to over 80 pages, there are probably many that you know that are not there as well. I have mostly only included ones I know, as this was basically created as a personal resource, so many songs local to your country will not appear if you are not living DownUnder. Guitar Chords are included for nearly all songs.
Of course I am updating my master copy with a lot of other songs that I want, a lot of which are just good for those times I feel like getting out the guitar, so feel free to convert this to suit your own requirements and add/delete as you see fit. For now this is the version that will remain on my site.

Before you bother to download the file (An editable MSWord Doc, about 550Kb in size, last updated 10th January 2012), here is the index, so you know if it is worth the effort.

The Cub Scout Law fits a song, making it easier for the cubs to remember.

To save downloading the entire songbook if you are only after Graces (for a camp etc), I also have a page of Scout Graces available as well.
