Notes: At the end of the 80's I used to ‘sit in’ with Fishbach and Kirby which became 29 Strings at Durty Nellies in Palatine IL. They asked me to learn the fiddle break to this song. I half- speeded on a Tandberg Tape recorder and got it note for note. In the song John Denver's telling you he is just a simple country bumpkin but there is an extra beat in measures 6 and 14. Once you get the basic tune down you will want to double stop on the open A or E string, which ever is not being used to play the melody line.

Notes: I heard this performed by the Dubliners once, who disregarded the repeats and ran straight through the piece, then repeated it again. First time through was strictly strings (banjo, guitar, violin) then the second time through they added harmony with whistles and what sounded like hammer dulcimer. It is a very fun piece to play due to the rhythm and off-beat syncopation thrown in throughout.

Notes: Fiddle can be played standard notation or tab, mandolin plays tab; rhythm guitar is in just as a basic strum pattern, a little background noise.

Notes: My first attempt at transcribing a tune via tabledit. It's more a skeleton of the melody than a close account of what Trent Freeman plays in his first round of the tune. Especially because it doesn't notate the many doublestops he uses. As I never tried playing in GDGD I'm not sure of his tuning either.

I transcribed and transposed the fiddle introduction to the banjo, so that banjo players could cover the whole melody.
Here, in this version of the arrangement, I have turned on the music notation of the vocal melody AND the intro fiddle melody that the banjo plays in my arrangement...
Hopefully, one of the skilled fiddle players/writers/arrangers can come up with a fiddle solo using this arrangement for a guideline...
