I understand, I've only been playing for a year and a half, but it does get easier.

Welcome, Michael, to this little corner of dulcimer heaven. Hope you enjoy it here.

Don't know of any tab available, but I did go to the internet and got the chords and lyrics. From there, I kind of made my own arrangement.

Hi Michael, and welcome to the wonderful world of the Friends of the Mountain Dulcimer. It's a good place to come, spend some time, learn about the dulcimer and meet some good people. Well, I think that I can say that I have survived and learned how to play the dulcimer even though I have no formal training in music. I play by knowing a song (in my head--and all the music that it's in my head!) and thanks to tablature!

Hey Michael and welcome to the site. This is a great place to share ideas and listen to music. I hope you enjoy!
PS: I love that tune as well. The Dillards are my favorite group!
