Gospel Guitar Encyclopedia
by William Bay

William Bay's Gospel Guitar Encyclopedia presents a collection of 63 all-time favorite gospel tunes scored as lightly ornamented flatpicked melodies in guitar-friendly keys. Suggested chords, tablature and lyrics are included along with a companion CD. The melodies are arranged in a fashion that they can be comfortably played as flatpicking solos or with another guitarist providing simple chord backup.

In the following arrangement of "I Love To Tell the Story", time values and stem directions are written with an eye towards ease of reading; the melodic notes should be brought out and sustained as long as possible with the ornaments and arpeggio fills slightly subdued. All of the arrangements in this collection are written similarly. A complete listing of the tunes in this book appears below.
