Misc Traditional - Ashokan Farewell guitar tab

This is a lovely fiddle tune that sounds great on guitar. It was the

theme song to an (American) public television series called _The

(American) Civil War_. It's a waltz with a very soulful melody - don't

rush it. Notes in parentheses are ``optional.'' - I don't think

they're in the original, but they sound good IMO. The chord

progression is pretty straightforward, but note the unusual vi - V7

progression, instead of the usual ii - V7. If there are any mistakes

or questions, please email or post.
