Here's an old time version I arranged way back in 2000. Most people were playing it in Bluegrass style at blistering speeds. Fun little tune for beginner clawhammer players...

Great tab, Jack! That's the old time way, without that F chord those blaspheming bluegrassers like to throw into the low part.
HA! Agreed Don, I didn't make it Mixolydian like so many Bluegrassers do....That D belong in there in my opinion...Jack but!! F is doable and works both ways...HA p.s. I don't think I've ever heard Bill Monroe put in that F chord....

You know, Jack, I was going to mention that, how Monroe stuck with the old time way. Maybe that's how his Uncle Pen played it, Anyway, i decided not to, people on here get mad at me when I complicate things too much. 
Recorded in December, 1961, with Tony Ellis on banjo.
Whew, tony's playing with fire...
