    1. Re: Happy Birthday Helen tabs
      Stuart Fenech

      "Happy Birthday Helen" is a song by Things Of Stone & Wood, another Australian band. Poor band… the only song of theirs floating around the internet is credited as a song by another band!

      John

      The MP3 can be procured through Napster: http://www.napster.com. There was a version of it that appeared on an Australian artist compilation album called "Maiden Australia" that is a bit more "stripped down" than other H&C versions I’ve heard…look for that one…Also, Crowded House covered it quite a bit and their versions are also worht listening to…

    3. Re: Does anyone know throw your arms around me
      Luke

      The chords are very easy!
      The Intro is: E(play open), A(barre chord on 5th fret), B(barre chord on 7th fret).

      E A
      I will come for you at night time
      E B
      I will raise you from your sleep
      E A
      I will kiss you in four places
      E A
      I’ll go running along your street, etc….

      I hoe this helps. It does sound harder than what it really is, another classic, three chord song!!

      Luke

      1. For Gods sake....
        Grantley Smith

        I know you all mean well, but it isn’t!! In order to get that drone, you have to tune to a drop D, and capo up 2 to play it in E. Sorry, but there it is. Email me if you want the chords (DADGAD is the tuning).

      : I got an original Baldwin 12 string for my birthday when I was in the 5th grade (late 60s) and had it until the late 80s. The guitar was purchased at a music store in Eureka Calif and came with a square hard shell case. The guitar ended up with my son in Denver Colorado and I think he Pawned it for $100.00. The guitar was made in Italy in the mid 60’s and was avalible with a Baldwin solid state amp and an optional second powered speaker cabinet. The guitar my son pawned had my name and SSN scribed on the tuners because it was stolen and recoverd when I was a Sr. in High School. I do recal that the pickups were cheep and the vol/tone controls get dirty and needed WD-40 sprayed in then to keep clean.
