The Gordon Lightfoot tune from 1965; Emerson & Waldron recorded this one back in the day. Here’s a demo & TAB.

Really good job on that one, Chuck. I remember that Mac Wiseman recorded a version of it, too.

Thank you, Mark. Mac, like Tony Rice, did a whole album of Lightfoot tunes. Bill Emerson, so the story goes, brought Lightfoot songs into bluegrass. I was conversing online with his son a while back who mentioned that Bill would put on a Gordo LP and turn the bass way up on "Old Blue".
