By Orton/Barnes/Friend, from Trailer Park, but this was tabbed from a
solo acoustic version she did on the radio, so don't expect it to sound
too much like the CD version.

If you do want to playalonga CD, then tune down one half-step or put a
capo on the 11th fret.

It's basically a walking bass part around C & Dm with some folky picking
of the high strings.
