Notes: Sawmill tuning capoed two. This is based on the source recording of Henry Reed. I play the high (A) part first in the Dorian mode, then on the second time through, I play a G# rather than a G natural on the 3rd string, as Mr Reed did. His version had a lot of variations in it, and I tried to capture some of that. A video of me playing this rendition is posted on my YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/h7t_OAubYVE
