I guess because i dont listen to folk music i cannot get myself to learn them...so instead i find myself just coming up with my own rhytyms and just practice chord changes ...and skip the songs

When I was ten I wanted a guitar. Instead, my mother determined to teach me piano. The one memory that sticks out from that period... "Three Blind Mice."
