I saw a version of this that wasn't complete. So, I am posting the way I
play it. I tabbed this out by listening to the version off his "Best of
Chris LeDoux" CD. I don't know if this tab is correct or not, but I
think it's pretty close. Personally, I play this song with a capo on the
2nd fret on both the acoustic and the electric, but I suggest just
playing whatever sounds best to you. If you have any questions or
comments, please let me know. Thanks.

FANTASTIC I have been looking for someone to step up to the challenge of this song, Great Job! I will be contacting you in the near future to discuss some things i've come up with that i'd like to share with you and get some feedback from you on. If that is O.K. e-mail me and let me know. I will be out of town this (Seeing Chris in concert), but when I get back i'd hope we can get together. THANKS AGAIN!!
