I've been working on learning toki pona! But much more than that I've been immediately jumping into trying to translate songs into it without quite having the full knowledge that would support that XD. Here's an attempt at the first verse of "O Come, All Ye Faithful" that I threw together Christmas night.

Doing a ton of rapid chord changes while singing in toki pona was a little beyond my ability, so I've included both full and simplified versions here!

Simplified Version

    D       A
jan nasin o kama
   D       G D A
li pona li kalama
  Bm A       D A  D A  E   A
o kama, o ta - wa e ma Petelen
  D       G D
o lukin e o-na
   Bm   G    A
ni li lawa e sewi
  D
a o lukin e ona!
            A
a o olin e ona!
  G     Em  A   G   D
o lukin li olin e ona
A   D
jan Jesu

A friend told me about the "pre" HTML tag and that made things a lot easier than just trying to change the font! Thanks

unbitwise!

The other day I was musing about how ultimate-guitar.com is such a valuable resource that's so awful and so close to becoming completely unusable because of how transparently greedy it is, so maybe I'll start crossposting some chords of my own here! This is a test of that viability.

Here's an old version of "Crystal Kingdom" from The Adventure Zone: Balance, arranged pretty specifically for ukulele and not precisely following the actual version in the show.( Read more... )

If this ends up looking the way I expect once I hit post I think it's overall viable, although the thing where the horizontal spacing goes away if you switch to HTML and back to rich view is a little annoying. Hopefully it stays at all without a billion nbsps!

EDIT: Well, the spaces worked (and now there are indeed a billion nbsps in the HTML which I didn't have to personally add, yay), but my intention of putting the chords themselves in a dropdown didn't. You live and you learn it, I guess.

EDIT 2: Oh! The cut does work when viewed on my overall blog and not the link to the specific post. Love wins.

Chords: o kama ye faithful

Chord sheets, do they work here? Crystal Kingdom
