GDgd / learned to play this from a recording by the Canote Brothers. There is a lot of lyrics that can be found, so I picked the verses I liked and used the chorus from a YouTube video of an interview that Bob Holt did with Charlie Acuff. Charlie plays and sings the tune. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IyomC16KTo) Charlie says he learned it from his grandfather and figures it went back to a time during or right after the civil war. But since there are a good number of variations to the tune with different names - I'm not sure we can say where or when it really originated. (http://tunearch.org/wiki/Annotation:Old_Yeller_Dog)

GDgd. A Henry Reed tune I learned from an Alan Jabbour and Bertram Levy recording. I can't find a YouTube video with this recording.

My arrangement of a fine tune. Played with the low E tuned down to D (drop D).
