Tuning: E A D G B E

Ahoy! I'm Continuing my quest to add some newer Punch Brothers lead sheets to this site with "In Wonder". I count this tune in three (as opposed to a slow 6/8), so each line in the verses takes up four bars; just something to keep in mind when you see me refer to the fiddle solo as 16 bars. The typical voicings for these chords do lend themselves well to plucking out the melody, so that could be something to try. Have fun! [Intro]
