From 1864, words by Folliott Pierpoint , music by Conrad Kocher. I play this one fingerstyle on the Martin D-35 in two different ways; classical style and thumb picking style with some scratchy vocals thrown in for good measure (pun intended). Thanks to Hal Leonard Publ. for the first arrangement, and to Stefan Grossman for advising not to shoe-horn every piece of music into the alternating thumb style wink

Fingerpicking your 35 sometimes has the harmonics of a harpsichord --- cool !
