My friend Danny is always playing this one in the chatroom so I thought I would give it a try.

BHO Member Tim Purcell inspired me to try to work up Jim Mills' version of this great song. I'm using tab purchased from Rusell Sawler at bluegrassoutlet.com. This is the opening break twice. The first is with my Yates Maple and the second time is with my Gibson TB-2 Mahogany Conversion. Next, I'll try to tackle the up the neck break. Then I'll add in the vocals for a future video (hopefully).
