A lot of tunings and transcriptions have been posted here to
taproot, so I decided to submit one of my own.
This is the live version of "Two Days Old", which has been posted
a few times to the newsgroups. This was done from scratch,
but I feel it's pretty accurate, and probably close to how
Hedges plays it. (A couple parts may be different)
If anyone has any suggestions, send them to me at

These next two bars are really awkward, and just because I've practiced
them enough to play them smoothly, that doesn't mean I think they're right.
If anyone finds a better fingering, please let me know.

This is the weird augmented arpeggio part, so sustain the notes as
long as possible. (even though I can't play this as legato as I'd like)
I know this isn't note-for-note, but it at least tells you what the left
hand is doing (which is usually just sustaining a chord).

Then it goes back to the main melody, then back to the intro.
The final measure after repeating is the intro is :

Jay Armstrong did a nice transcription of "Two Days Old" and referred to
a couple of measures which were really awkward:
|-14----------------------|-------------------------------|
|---------0--14---------9-|----11------11^9---------------|
|-------0--------0--15----|-------------------10-/-12-----|
|-------------------------|-------------------------------|
|-------------------------|-10-----10--10-----------------|
|----13------13-----------|-------------------------------|
I finger the first one differently:
|---14-------------12-----------------|
|--------------0-----------12---------|
|------------0-----------0------------|
|-------------------------------9h----|
|-------------------------------------|
|--------13--------13-----------------|
The h next to the 9 stands for harmonic. This fingering is a little
awkward for me also, but I like using the harmonic.
As for the second measure, I play it the same way (as Jay). The only thing
you have to be careful with is the pull-off from the 11th to 9th fret. In
order to get enough volume without hitting the first string, I mute the
first string by holding my right ring finger on it.

These next two bars are really awkward, and just because I've practiced
them enough to play them smoothly, that doesn't mean I think they're right.

This is the weird augmented arpeggio part, so sustain the notes as
long as possible. (even though I can't play this as legato as I'd like)
I know this isn't note-for-note, but it at least tells you what the left
hand is doing (which is usually just sustaining a chord).

Then it goes back to the main melody, then back to the intro.

This file from the Taproot mailing list. Contact dstuart@discover.wright.edu
for more information.
A lot of tunings and transcriptions have been posted here to
taproot, so I decided to submit one of my own.
This is the live version of "Two Days Old", which has been posted
a few times to the newsgroups. This was done from scratch,
but I feel it's pretty accurate, and probably close to how
Hedges plays it. (A couple parts may be different)
If anyone has any suggestions, send them to me at

Jay Armstrong did a nice transcription of "Two Days Old" and referred to
a couple of measures which were really awkward:
|-14----------------------|-------------------------------|
|---------0--14---------9-|----11------11^9---------------|
|-------0--------0--15----|-------------------10-/-12-----|
|-------------------------|-------------------------------|
|-------------------------|-10-----10--10-----------------|
|----13------13-----------|-------------------------------|
I finger the first one differently:
|---14-------------12-----------------|
|--------------0-----------12---------|
|------------0-----------0------------|
|-------------------------------9h----|
|-------------------------------------|
|--------13--------13-----------------|
The h next to the 9 stands for harmonic. This fingering is a little
awkward for me also, but I like using the harmonic.
As for the second measure, I play it the same way (as Jay). The only thing
you have to be careful with is the pull-off from the 11th to 9th fret. In
order to get enough volume without hitting the first string, I mute the
first string by holding my right ring finger on it.

These next two bars are really awkward, and just because I've practiced
them enough to play them smoothly, that doesn't mean I think they're right.
If anyone finds a better fingering, please let me know.

This is the weird augmented arpeggio part, so sustain the notes as
long as possible. (even though I can't play this as legato as I'd like)
I know this isn't note-for-note, but it at least tells you what the left
hand is doing (which is usually just sustaining a chord).

Then it goes back to the main melody, then back to the intro.
The final measure after repeating is the intro is :
