They contain many mistakes and are difficult to read (even if you have excellent eyes) because the lute tab is printed in a tiny font.

Dear Rob all: I have to say that one must approach even the sainted SB editions with a bit of caution. The poetry retains many of the 'corrections' perpetrated by Fellows, who should be commended for his pioneering work but scolded for messing with the texts. It is worth the bother to check the SB editions against the facsimiles, Diana Poulton's Dowland biography (with song-by-song analysis), and Doughtie's _Lyrics from English Airs_. It seems like a great deal of trouble just to sing some lute songs, doesn't it?

The versions on the net are written for 8 or more course while I'm playing 7 like our not so dear Mr. Dowland. Need it for a project. Thank you all and have a really nice day! Hi, an often used edition is the Diane Poulton edition with the collected music (almost complete, and some pieces which are - I think- not by dowland).Published by faber faber. (with horrible staff notes, so lots of page turning) Can be found on amazon and many musicshops will have it in stock. Don't forget to take a large wallet. The pieces by dowland are for a mix of lutes sometimes even a 9th course is used. This is because all the pieces come from sources where people arranged it for the lute available. If you have only a 7th course lute available than play the piece on this lute and transpose the bass notes which are too low. Guitarists also play dowland and they have only 6 strings What dowland himself played is almost certainly a mix of lutes.
