Notes: [][][] Here's tab for another Uncle Dick Hutchison fiddle tune. It's from the LP, Old-Time Fiddlin' with Charles Carr on guitar. It's interesting that on the D-chord, bass notes are played in 5-R order (or A,D) rather than the more typical R-5 order (D,A). This seems to work especially well in the B Part.
