Product Description
Arranged for mountain dulcimer in standard DAd (1-5-8) tuning. The 1+ fret is required.
*There are two measures where the 8+ fret is indicated, but an alternate fingering is included for those without it.
Suggested skill level is set at Intermediate to Upper Intermediate and above.
NOTE:
The overall beat of this song is fairly moderate, but after verse one there are a lot of notes added in to match the wordy lyrics. It is a bit deceptive because it sounds like the pace really kicks up at verse 2, but in reality, the beat stays the same...there are just more strums. This works in the player's favor. For the most part, you can hold the same chord shape for many of these measures with your fingers and use your thumb to bounce around to grab the extra notes. It makes it sound like you are working harder than you are.
**This is one of those songs that the axiom "if you can sing it, you can play it" really holds true.
Included in this packet:
~DAd dulcimer tablature
~Complete lyrics and reading order
~Lead sheet standard notation
~Optional instrumental interlude
~Accompaniment chords
~Alternate finger positions for no 8+ fret
