Notes: Notes: You will need to occasionally use the same thumb or finger to pluck consecutive notes to pull this tune off, but it works, because the songs does not need to be played fast. In fact, I think it sounds better at a slower pace. You can also fluctuate the tempo a little throughout the song to give it more feeling. Most of the tune is played in melodic style, with some single string thrown in as well. Some banjo players tune their 4th string down to a C in order to get a couple of notes. I tried this but ultimately decided it was much easier to keep it in standard tuning, and did not affect the sound of the tune very much.
