I love when the two worlds of old-timey melodies and grassy presentation come together! I was leading our men's group in singing a few weeks ago and we sang this song. I needed an intro and I just started playing the verse like you hear on the guitar. Then, I couldn't get it out of my mind! Have fun with this one!

Key of G

    Got about 80% of this one down but the third measure keeps tripping me. Anybody else find that part awkward at speed?

    Count it out loud. Everyone says it and everyone's right.

    Take the capo off and play it in open G a few times, then put it back. Helped me hear it.

    That's the one that made me finally understand backup. Stick with it.

    Memorization comes from playing it at a tempo you can think at. If you need the tab, you're playing it faster than you know it.

    The pinky thing goes away, I promise. Took me about three months.
