The Poor Ditching Boy tab by Richard Thompson
Guitar Tab
Here's a song by Richard Thompson, "The Poor Ditching Boy," off _Starring as Henry the Human Fly_. fortunately, this album has been rereleased by Rykodisk. It's definitely worth the money. It's in open-g: dgdgbd (drop 6, 5, 1 one whole step--notice that this makes your guitar have the same shape as an a major open chord) You should embellish these chords as much as you feel confident to do and/or is tasteful. Richard certainly does. The nature of the alternate means that the open strings will never be dissonant with each other or notes in the g major scale, so if in doubt they will be ok. I'm not entirely sure what he does in this song as he has a violin player as well as his guitar. It works nicely with two guitarists, though. Best way to get a feel for this is to listen really carefully to the song. I don't think Richard plays the bits exactly the same way each time through.
