this is how it is tabbed

Code: Select all

G:2----9--- 
A:3----x-- 
D:3----10--

this is how I play it. You just keep your ring finger on the A string and can slide and it is faster and more effecient than dave's way. What do you think?

I play it with a 1332 and a 8,10,10,9 I think it sounds fine. While we're on the topic, Granny is such a great song, I just love the way Dave wrote this song, its is beatiful. Of course, it's better played live with a full band, but this is a song that when played solo, not having a band doesnt affect it too much.

Congratulations, mlb, you have been inducted into the "who cares what I play even if it is not exactly what dave does as long as it sounds go to ME" club.

Believe me, that was far more of a complement than you realize.

What do you mean it sounds fine? It sounds EXACTLY the same. It's the same note, dude. Just eas...

Oh, yeah- you're a "purist". That's cool, too.
