My favourite version of this amazing song, written in 1856, and popular during the American Civil War, Everyone who's anyone in country music has covered it. The *RIFF* I've included doesn't have to be played, but sounds pretty cool. If you like this, !! RATE THIS !! thanks - flatwound - LORENA Dbm = X46654, Ab = 466544 *RIFF* A B e|--0---------------2--| B|--2---------------4--| G|--2---------------4--| D|--2---------------4--| A|--0------------2--2--| E|--X--4--2--0---------| [VERSE]
