Here's my souped up version of the tune. Did it with my new camera that just happens to have a recording feature. Not the best quality but was fun to make all the same.

Interesting take, though not too far off the beaten path - nice job.

Even more interesting fingering for your D and E chords up the neck - never seen anyone finger those like that...not that I'm a student of folks chord fingering or anything. :-)

Do you mean when I'm doing the barre chords or the open chords? I don't really do a lot of self-analysis when it comes to my guitar playing, I'm trying to see what I'm doing different.

The D fingering - looks like - and correct me if I'm wrong - you've got the B & G stings with your pinky and the D string with your ring finger on the 7th fret - then same thing 2 frets up for the E chord on the 9th fret.

Most barre all three with either the ring finger or pinky.

Ah yes your right. I guess I had never really not being the norm. Interesting, it always just worked best for me.

I liked it. Nice little scale runs in the beginning when you first sit down. You definitely have some chops.

Which is your bed? The top or bottom bunk? LOL

haha......ah yes


I was staying at my folks place during the holidays. That room was once my little sisters and she has a strange decorative taste.

I am not a 30 year old male who sleeps in a purple room with pinwheels and bunkbeds.
