The studio and SYF(live) are both in Bb (starts on Cm)

When did they ever do it in C (starts on Dm)?

by **IamDocWatson** » Tue Nov 20, 2007 12:57 am

none of the version i have...

i personaly like the feeling from playing it in Bb.

i use the key of C and G especialy alot in bluegrass tunes. so theres something about me that feels a huge difference from the commonality of C to Bb...like i dont just hear the intervals, it feels completely different to me

Agree. Plus it sounds too happy in C.

ya b flat is the way to go. but idk its tabbed different on here, its all a step down i believe

i just tried playing it in C and i cant think of a version that sounds like that... like strummin said it sounds waaay to happy

So I need to learn this song for a show on Saturday.

It's C here.
It's Bb on the album
The singer requested it in G!

gotta go with the singer i suppose...

if he feels comfortable in G its probably easier for you to transpose the chords then him stretch his vocal range

Agreed, Doc! Plus I never knew how to play it so there ya go! The only trouble is that it's funky to play with the album then play it in another key and back and forth!

BTW, the into tab is album key not tabbed key

LOL, Ed. I wasn't correcting but wanted to point it out in case anyone was working on it. It fucked me up good though. I transposed it then went to transpose your intro and got me all jacked up!
