Bluegrass

Bluegrass - Wildwood Flower (1930's) guitar tab

Wildwood Flower (1930's version)

The difference between this and the 1920's version is that

Maybelle Carter played the 20's version using a fingerpick

on her index finger to play the notes on the bottem string.

She used a fingerpick in this 1930's version also but

simplified the song to this version.
