We had alot of fun. Hope to have another get together soon. And maybe with better planning for next year we can get some travelers from other states to visit. This was just a quick thrown together gathering and the turn out was pretty damn good. better than I expected.
It was a 6 string. I no longer have it. It was heavily used the day of the gathering and went home with Crow. Im sure he's found a use for it.
The tuning is standard 440. real easy chords
A .Barred at the 5th fret only holding down the A string at the 7th, while pressing and lifting the b string at the 6th fret
D. barred at the 5th only pressing and lifting the D string at the 7th and the B at the 6th
The 5th fret barr is only lifted at the chorus and those chords are
C B E in that order.

Its not exact to Billys version but i think its close enough. One day I might pop in the song and figure it out correctly. So dont take this as play to the CD perfect chords. I just play everything by ear, and play what i think sounds right at the time.
