Scottish Songs for Guitar: The Rigs Of Barley
No collection of Scottish songs would be complete without a happy tale of illicit rolling in the hay. 'The Rigs of Barley' is an easygoing song and one that rolls right along using the time-honored device of ending the verse and the refrain with the lyric sung on the tonic and the chord hanging up on the IV chord. And the whole song—verse and chorus—is one simple eight-bar pattern.
