Can anybody help me with this song in E9th?I am not looking for complete TAB of the song, just a hint as to what position to start in to get the correct feel. I can find several places on the neck where I can pick out the basic tune, and could get by if I had to, but I am looking for someone who might know the best position to get kicked off in so as to get the right "feel" of the song, (as close as possible in E9th). I think the rest will fall into place after that. I don't have C6th neck, so that is not even an option at this time. Any help at all would be appreciated, Thank You, Les |

Les;
Check with Don Curtis at Scotty's. He has it in one of his courses (C6 on E9,I believe) |

If you want to try something, try playing it with the e's lowered lever and play it in B at the 12th fret. That still gives you the open string hammer on's for the bridge. Most of it is around the 12th fret, 5th fret and open.Now having stuck my neck out, does anyone know how to get it into C on a E9/B6 12 string? What ever do you do with those open strings? ------------------

Jeff Newman has a great tab and track for this tune in the "Just Jammin" package!

Jeff starts the melody to the song on the seventh fret, in the key of E, on the 3rd string, pedal down. The intro is started on the 5th fret, strings 5-6-8 with E lowered.[This message was edited by Fred Murphy on 12 May 2001 at 07:32 AM.] |

In the key of E you should be able to play the hammer-ons pedals down in F. I usually play it in D on the U-12, but don't use the hammer-ons.
The U-12 usually gives another option or key to play many of the songs requiring open strings. Two examples: Raisin The Dickens and Remington Ride can be played in E

The Tommy White/Lloyd Green video would be a good resource. I have always played this tune in the C6th tuning but after seeing that video I have thought about working it out in E9th as well as Rolly Polly------------------

I play it in E9 with AB pedals down, in the keyof E, 7th fret, starting with 3 stg, to the 1st, then 4th stg, 6th then 5th strings, all at the 7th fret. You can almost get the whole song right there. Hope it works the way I've written it. |
