Though this tune is traditionally a waltz, this particular version is built in 4/4 time and jazzed up a bit. It's in the key of E minor, and it's built to play fast! This tab is written to go along with the guitar and banjo versions of this tune, so introduce it to the rest of the band!

Third time coming back to this lesson over two years. It's amazing what shows up when you're ready for it.

There's a slower track in the resources for this one. If you want it slower still, let me know and I'll cut one.

Try it without the pick for a few passes. Sounds silly but it told me my right hand was doing too much.

I had that exact problem. Turned out my thumb was anchoring in the wrong spot.
