Ballad of Serenity - Sonny Rhodes
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: BluesLP1990
Email:jjudson@g.clemson.edu
Tuning: standard, CAPO 3rd FRET
The main purpose of this tab is to detail the fiddle, banjo, and guitar fills throughout
song. I'll provide a basic structure for the verses, but my focus is on the
breaks, since no one else has tabbed them. Keep flying, Browncoats!
Intro/verse - really helps to pick the strings hard and get a real steely sound. the
sounds great with a little extra bend before the pulloff
