Loved it Dana. Like usual, your songwriting is great! I can just hear the train rolling down the tracks in your strumming too. Your Papaw would be proud!

Thanks Brian and Nila, he was a very special man to me and I miss him very much. I'm glad I wrote the song, wish he could have been around to hear it.

Good job, Dana! Have to wonder, though, if it was my accompanying you this past weekend that made you decide to both sing and play the song yourself! Grin.gif

Thank you everyone, I was playing on my modern mountain dulcimer dad but I was playing my chords on the bass string. That is the reason it sounds lower. Just reversed the chords. I wrote this song so long ago and I'm so happy now to be able to play it and sing it at the same time. I usually just sing it accapella or with someone else plays with me. I think I'm finally getting the hang of the dulcimer. LOL

ENJOYED the song! I also LOVED the sound coming from the dulcimer - slightly deeper than others!! Thanks for sharing!
