My Daddy was a rock and roller by Jason Collett
Album: Pony Tricks
For some of the changes from E to F#m he
does a walk from E - F - F#m.
I couldn't find the tab or lyrics
for this song anywhere so I'm not
sure about all the lyrics but I think
it's close. This song is off the Pony Tricks
album which is a compilation of Collett songs
from other albums, such a good album! Comments are welcome, enjoy!
