Saw the Stray Birds recently in Leicester, England, and loved every minute of their gig. Brilliant musicians and writing. Can't wait to see them again!
the song is in a key of A major, so chords would be A - D - E, keys with plenty of open strings in first position are in general handy for mandolin/fiddle in this type of situation
Emmylou does, of course, a superb version of this. I play all the instruments on this recording, plus a few others. I sing bass to counter-tenor. I've been making music for a living for half a century. I've taught this beautiful song to a dozen singers or more. Nobody does it better'n Emmylou. But the Stray Birds kick some serious ass on their version. I just found the Stray Birds tonight and if they had Albert Lee, like Emmylou did, they could take over the world. And, no, I can't play like Albert Lee.

This song has been begging for sn acoustic treatment from the stray birds. Absolutely beautiful.

@@Aljoshaaa,thanking you for response!! Lovely!
Keep her glass full of whiskey
My ears are having a big problem staying in key with her voice. It's funny, the same thing happened on the other song I heard her sing too.
I think it's your ears.
Only Emmylou can sing this song this version is far from the real deal Maurice Ireland
Thanks Maurice!
