    This is why I love all guitars! You can do fingerstyle, percussive, steel guitar, electric, and it's all the same instrument!

      Very similar but theres some different tricks to these instruments for sure. If you can play round neck slide though you can probably play lap steel/dobro.

      Think the dude has a relay loop system, and not actually playing everything at the same time. Simply look at his right hand, visually not seeing any "boom-chick" fingerstyle pucking in the background to his lead slide playing.

      He didn't write it alone, but did contribute. Bill Danoff and his wife, Taffy Nivert were the main authors of the song and it took them several months to get a final draft. Denver heard that draft and the three of them spent an entire night changing around the lyrics. Considering Country Roads is rooted in feelings of nostalgia, its actually pretty amazing they were able to condense those complex emotions and memories into a simple song.

    Country roads, take me home
    To the place I belong
    West Virginia, mountain mama
    Take me home, country roads
    Almost heaven, West Virginia
    Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
    Life is old there, older than the trees
    Younger than the mountains, growin' like a breeze
    Country roads, take me home
    To the place I belong
    West Virginia, mountain mama
    Take me home, country roads
    I hear her voice in the mornin' hour, she calls me
    The radio reminds me of my home far away
    Drivin' down the road, I get a feelin'
    That I should've been home yesterday,
    yesterday
    Country roads, take me home
    To the place I belong
    West Virginia, mountain mama
    Take me home, country roads
    Take me home, country roads
