All Other Circles

Aug 24, 2024 Release
NOTE: You are certainly welcome to print the PDF, some have even taken previous editions to print shops and have them professionally bound. That being said, we cannot guarantee they print and bind well. Everything here is "best effort". We are always happy to receive feedback on how to make things better.
This song book is 100% for educational purposes. It is free to all. Many of the songs we tabbed ourselves. All songs have been checked for accuracy and chord placement (as best as possible).
I hope you find this a useful tool on your musical education journey!
Huge thanks to the numerous members of Roswell Music Jam who helped tab, reviewed and proof our books! You are the real heroes!
If you have feedback or requests don't hesitate to email us at roswellmusicjam@gmail.com
ONSONG IMPORT INSTRUCTIONS
Here are the instructions for importing the ChordPro zip file into OnSong on an iPad. If you have a different tablet or ChordPro viewing app, it should work just as well. But this is what we have tested and it works.
-
On your iPad - open Safari
-
Navigate to this page: https://www.roswellmusicjam.com/songbooks
-
Click on the link above for the ChordPro Zip file
-
Click on "Download" when prompted.
-
This will save the Zip files to your "Files" on your iPad.
-
The file will have a name like rmj-all-chordpro-DATE-TIME.zip
-
-
On your iPad - open OnSong
-
Touch the "Songs" at the top left
-
Click "All Songs" (first item in the menu)
-
In the pop up menu, in the very bottom right, click on the icon with the square with the arrow pointing down.
-
Click on "Files"
-
Find the file that you just downloaded and tap it.
-
In the top right click "Open"
-
Wait 2 minutes, seriously. 120 seconds.... Go get some coffee, tea or something stronger. It takes about 2 minutes, and doesn't give any indication something is happening
-
In the background (on the left) you will see the song list populate when it is all imported.
-
When you see the songs on the left, now click the "X" at the top left of the Pop Up window.
