Classic Barbershop Tags

Classic Tags
for mens voices

PREFACE
Barbershop tag singing is surely one of the grandest traditions arising from the field of vocal harmony. A
tag is a short passage consisting of an arrangements ending, or coda, which is taught and sung in sessions of
informal chord-ringing. The tag allows four singers to quickly blend their voices in a few seconds of blissful
harmony without the burden of learning an entire song.
This manual is an anthology dedicated to the perpetuation of this practice. We have endeavored to chronicle
the tag-singing of today and yesterday by collecting the classic tagsthose which have become lore by virtue of
having been repeated and passed along from harmonizer to harmonizer.
Most of these tags originated within the barbershop community, but a few from neighboring vocal styles
have been embraced by barbershoppers and are therefore included as well. It should be noted that some of the tags
contain chords which are not accepted in a barbershop contest. We have simply recorded the tags the way they are
usually sung, with no editorial corrections.
An effort was made to determine the origin of each tag, but this proved to be an impossible task. The
source of many of these little gems seems lost in the murky past, perhaps never to be ascertained. When possible
we have identified the tags arranger and an approximate date of origin; if the tag was popularized by a particular
performer, we have so indicated.
The tags appear in no particular order, and no consistent method was applied in labeling them. (Sometimes
the tag is identified by its first line, sometimes by the song title, sometimes both, sometimes neither.) The index
which appears at the end is hopefully thorough enough to enable the user to locate any particular tag. In some
cases there exists more than one common version of a tag, in which case we have attempted to select the one which
is most traditional, occasionally notating alternatives using grace notes. Accordingly, we have generally opted for
the popular version even when it differs from the arrangers original.
Barbershop harmony is typically sung by singers of the same gender; hence a mens version and a womens
version have been created. Often the most appropriate interval of transposition between the mens key and the
womens key is a tritone, so a tag written in B-flat for men transposes to E for women. It is not unusual to find men
and women singing tags together, and in this case they may choose to split the difference in selecting a suitable
key by singing it approximately a minor third above where it is written for men, or a minor third below where it is
written for women.
Many of these tags contain recognizable portions of copyrighted songs and arrangements. Therefore this
manual may not be sold for profit. Since a tag is not a performable unit, the manual may be used for classroom/
educational purposes. Barbershop choruses will find the tags useful in warm-ups and as exercises in vowel matching, tuning, balance, and vocal production. However, anyone wishing to use this or any copyrighted material in
public performance must obtain a legally cleared arrangement.
This manual is an ongoing project, to be updated and appended from time to time. The date of the latest
revision appears at the top of page one. Many thanks are due to a number of people who assisted us in tracking
down information. We would appreciate the help of anyone who can provide missing origins and/or dates of the
tags in this collection, and we welcome suggestions for tags which should be included in future updates.
I wish to specifically recognize and thank my colleagues Jim Bagby, Jim Henry, Kevin Keller, and David
Krause for serving as an editorial board for this project.
