This song is tabbed out from the Live at Luther College CD. Tim's solos are
accurate and actually they aren't too difficult either considering he's Tim
Reynolds.

KEY:
/=slide
h=hammer on
<>=harmonics
x=muting
~=vibrato
-notes that follow each other with no dash in between them are played
rapidly.

Verse and Intro:
-2-xxx------------------xxx-------------------
-3-xxx----------------3-xxx-------------------
-2-xxx----------------0-xxx-------------------
-0-xxx-----4-----4----0-xxx-----5-----5-/7-0--
---xxx-4/5---4/5---5--2-xxx-4h5---4h5---------
---xxx----------------3-xxx-------------------

Sometimes Tim throws this in during the verse.
-2-xxx------------------------xxx--------------------
-3-xxx----------------------3-xxx-----8-----8-/10~~--
-2-xxx-------11-------11----0-xxx-6/7---6/7----------
-0-xxx-11/12----11/12----12-0-xxx--------------------
---xxx----------------------2-xxx--------------------
---xxx----------------------3-xxx--------------------

Following the first verse, Tim plays his first solo:
-8888888-7----------7777777-------------10-7-8----7------------
-----------10-8-10--8888888-10-8--8-10---------10---8-10-8-7-8-
--------------------7777777------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------
After the final note, Tim plays a blazing scale which I cannot tab out so
what I do is improv with the notes I previously tabbed out until it goes
back into the verse.

Chorus:
-2--2-----2--0-
-3--3--3--3--2-
-4--2--0--4--2-
-4--0--0--4--2-
-2-----2--2--0-
-------3-------

Then comes Tim's second solo. It's better known for being the Dueling
Banjo's part of the song.
-7-8-10-7-8----7----14-15-17-14-15-14----14-12~-7-8-10-7-8-10-7---7-
------------10---8~-------------------15------------------------8-7-
--------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Tim's third solo is as follows:
-5555555555-88888-77777-10101010101010-10101010101010-5-5-
-7777777777-88888-88888-10101010101010-12121212121212-7-8-
------------------------------------------------------7-7-
----------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------
With the last 2 chords, alternate quickly between the 2 to finish off the
solo. It's not too difficult because its mostly just strumming. Listen for
the rhythm though.

These are the bridge chords:
----------
----------
-0--2--0--
-0--0--2--
-2--0--2--
-3--2--0--

During the last chord Tim plays it for half the time that Dave does and
plays this while Dave continues with the last chord.
-----------<12>--
------<12>-------
-<12>------------
-----------------
-----------------
-----------------

The second time they go through these chords, Tim then plays this over the
last half of the last chord.
-<12>-----------
-----<12>-------
----------<12>--
----------------
----------------
----------------

Now for the last solo. You must have a slide to play it like this.
---10--10--10--10--10---15--15--15--15--15---22--22--22--22--22-

These notes are the exact amount of times the note is played because its
tough to hear because of Timmy's effects. The notes are right so try and
listen for any changes.
