Guitar Tab

Alright, so there is a lot going on in the middle sections of
this song and with so many stringed instruments
playing at the same time it's hard to say what exactly is the guitar part.
With that said, I'm fairly certain I've at least got the main riff 100% right.


[Main Riff] 0:49

     Bm     Bm7       G                     G6
e|-7-7-7--5-5-5---------------------------|
B|-7-7-7--7-7-7----3-3-3------------------|
G|-7-7-7--7-7-7---0-0-0--4--4-----4-------|
D|-9-9-9--9-9-9--0-0-0--0--2h4h2----------|
A|------------------2-2-2---2--2-----2----|
E|------------------3-3-3---3---3-----3---|

I didn't bother with the harmonics on the second verse, sorry.


[Middle Section] 2:14

        A7/C#             Fm7/C#         D5 (keep playing it every beat for a while)
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------3-------------------------------------|
G|-----2-------2--------2-------2----2---------------------------------------|
D|---2--5---2---5----2---4---2------0----------------------------------------|
A|-4------4--------4--------4------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

For this part play the same pattern as exemplified in the D/F# over these chords:

                              D/F#                  Asus4/E    DM7  DM7/C#
e|---------------|------5--------5-----5------------5------5----------|
B|---------------|--------7--------7---5------------3------3----------|

D|--2--5--2--5-|-----------------------------------0------------------|
A|-4-----4------|-9--------9---------7-------------------4------------|
E|---------------|----------------------------------------------------|


[Main melody]

This is the banjo melody that has been popping up here and there throughout the
song. Played in round with the mandolin and guitar at around 3:16

e|----------------------------------|-----------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------|------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------2----------|----------------------2--------------------|
D|---0-2---0-2---0-2--2-0------|---0-2---0-2---0-2----2-----0-----------------|
A|-4-----4------4----------4-2--|-4-----4------4-----------------4--2---------|
E|---------------------------------|------------------------------------------|

And while the fiddle plays the main melody:

     Bm/D                     D5                          Same pattern again over Asus2/E and  DM7
e|--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7----5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-----------------------------------|
B|--3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-----3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3----------------------------------|
G|--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2----2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-----------------------------------|
D|--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0--------------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|

        A7/C#             Fm7/C#         Fm/C# (listen for rhythm)
e|--------------------------------------2-------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------2--------------------------------------|
G|-----2-------2--------2-------2----2----------------------------------------|
D|---2--5---2---5----2---4---2------4-----------------------------------------|
A|-4------4--------4--------4--------4----------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Those are all the different parts in the song.

Finally, it's never actually played on the guitar but just for the hell of it,
here's the rest of the main melody:

e|-------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------------------|
D|----------------------2-----------------------4--------|
A|--2-----2------2--------2-----2-----2-----2----2-------|
E|----4-5---4-5---4-5------3-5---3-5---3-5---------------|
