Here is another Sons of Pioneers tune written by Tim Spencer ; Tim
considered this piece his finest composition. To play it I transposed this
song from the key of Eb to the Key of G for easier playing, and simplified
the arrangement a bit more by making a couple less chord changes with this
arrangement.
For those who like to play alongside a recording; I would suggest
transposing
this arrangement up to D then capo that arrangement up 1 fret.
