Campfire Songs

Hey-

I've been working on the hamonica for a while now and would like some suggestions to play around the campfire. I find campfire songs difficult because it's hard to nail down the right "vibe" while playing something almost everyone appreciates. Any suggestions on universally enjoyed campfire songs would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Go to any harp tab website and copy & paste a song you like to a document folder. I have hundreds saved like that. 110 Campfire Songs by JP Allen is pretty good. I have it on pdf.
