    Strumming version on a McSpadden Mountain Dulcimer tuned DAD. I am still struggling with it.

    The bottom of the "film reel" lines up with the edge of the dulcimer!

    Older lady at church just handed one down to me that she never learned. Looks simple enough to learn. Can't wait to tackle my next learning experience.

      Starmill5 , thank you for your nice feedback. I am sorry to say I don't have tabs for this song. With the mountain dulcimer, I always try to find out how to play a song intuitively.

    John Denver played and sang this in A. Most mere mortals (like myself) play and sing it in G. This arrangement is in D. I suggest a capo at the 3rd fret for the dulcimer to play in the key of G.

    It's actually amazing what you can do with only 3 strings. However, I did not recognize the tune, I suspect this would be fine as fill-in or background in a larger arrangement, however.

      I'd say this is above beginner, probably about intermediate level. It's 3 pages with a CD for teaching and it sounds good.www.tullglazener.com/WCD033-TakeMeHomeCountryRoads_Workshop_CD.htm It's $15.00

      ​@@anotherguyonthepc5 I'm sorry if you're disappointed in me, Cole. I'm 78, never played a musical instrument and new to all of this. I'm not very good as you detected. Maybe I should just quit trying as even having the tab is still so hard for me.

      Choose Know ....dont be intimidated by a 23 year old wanna be guitar player. He has also put rude replies on two of my posts here. I was taught if you cant say something nice, dont say anything at all.............neither one of us asked for his input and it was uncalled for. I am 68, and also just learning. I think being older, i want to do things quicker. I learn much quicker with tab. Am starting to do some by ear now also. I enjoy learning....im beginner to intermediate and am getting better with practice. I also bought tab from Tull and am very happy with it. We do whats best for us. Keep playing
