Nice job! A finger picking intro; solid strumming; and some riffs in the mix. Way to go!

Thx. Been playing this one since the beginning but i haven’t played it lately until tonight. I think this might’ve been the first full song I ever learned and actually memorized without playing it from tab

I really like the intro, outdo, and riffs. Adds a lot of nice aroma. I play this Haggard tune too but just not with those quality riffs so now I have something to add. Thanks for sharing.

I get most of my song tabs from ultimateguitar.com

They have pretty much any song you can possibly think of no matter how new or old and it’s free. I recommend paying the $20 yearly subscription to get auto scroll cause it’s annoying to have to keep moving the page while you’re trying to play lol

It’s mostly user submitted, but there’s usually several to pick from whether you’re looking for chords or actual tablature.

I’m trying to add more intros and fills to the stuff i play instead of just strumming but it’s proving to be really hard to play the electric guitar parts on an acoustic with medium strings.

I still can’t figure out why the old time country guys used to wrap their pick arm around the side of the guitar down near the strap button. I don’t ever play standing up so I wonder if this has to do with the fact that they used to tie the other end of the strap to the headstock behind the nut instead of the heel of the guitar which is more popular these days

@That_Guy y, Sounds good! Nice intro and strumming. The solo breaks really set it off! Good job.

Nice. That had everything – fingerpicking, strumming, solos. 🎸
