Before He Cheats
I'm learning this song on my lap steel in C6 tuning (CEGACE). I've got the chords, but not all the licks right. Does anyone have tab for this song? What tuning are you using? Thanks.

David- One of my bands does that song, but I play piano on it. We do it in F# minor. I've never played steel on it. Maybe some of the licks you need I do on piano. Any one in particular you need ?

Yeah! That's one of the best parts of the song. I saw the steel guitarist for a couple seconds on a YouTube video, right when he was playing that phrase. It helped to know that it was they were intervals from a B7 chord (playing the song in Em). Here's the four bars that contain that lick:

The video clip I saw was Carrie Underwood singing live at some awards ceremony. The steel guitarist was playing a 6-string Lap King Rodeo model, no pedals. The actual guitar builder noted the video clip on this forum, I just can't find the thread with the search function here. It's a beautiful guitar though.
