Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - Face On The Cutting Room Floor (mando) solo guitar tab

Here is the mandolin lead part. I think it is very close to

correct. I tabbed this from their live album "Live Two Five"

I believe it is the same as their other recordings, but I'm

not sure if the live version is different than others.

The mandolin chords are exactly what jeffrey_brent has

for the guitar chords. The major rhythm of this song is

formed by mandolin chords.

e ----------------------------------------------

a --------0-1/2-020--------02-3--0-2-0--0-------

d --0-2h4------------5--045--------------520-025

g ----------------------------------------------

e --------------3p0-0---------------------------

a -0-2-5-2-5-2-5---5--5-22-3-2h3p2p0------------

d ----------------------------------5-----------

g ----------------------------------------------

e -7/3p0-0---------------------------

a ------5--5-2-5---7t---9t---10t-----

d -----------------5t---7t---8-t-----

g -----------------------------------

Then this short little sequence starts a few bars later

e -7-7---5-5---3-3-----3-3---5-5---3t----

a -5-5---3-3---2-2-----2-2---3-3---2t----

d ---------------------------------------

g ---------------------------------------

Then it goes back to rhythm
