Notes: John Hartford plays this tune in the key of E using 3-finger style. This clawhammer arrangement is in the key of G and attempts to capture the sound of John's fine playing. The first part (Intro and Verse) is modeled after the banjo introduction and can be used as backup to singing the verses. Or simpler strums can be used as backup. The second part (Chorus) is based on the melody of the chorus but is tabbed in the lower part of the fretboard rather than up the neck.
