This is a great song and I kept it pretty simple. I did use the 9th string lower on E9th (1:04 - 1:06 and 4:05 - 4:14) and the 4th string lower one half tone on C6th (3:25 - 3:28 and 2 other places briefly).
The diminished chords on E9th used split tuning on the 5th string raise.
The lap steel is a Rondo SX tuned to C6 with the low string at C# to allow for easy 7th and diminished chords. Theres a few places where I pull strings behind the bar to raise them a half tone (2:50 - 2:51).
I will have the rhythm track soon and plan on tabbing the Lap, C6th and selected E9th tab soon.

Ken, I recorded this with the Hilton pedal and I bump my treble back a bit when I use the Hilton. Problem is I take my foot off the volume pedal a lot when I play and the Hilton kept drifting off. So the level goes almost off in a few places and up and down like a YoYo. A few turns on the clutch screw and all is OK now.
I've got "Don't You Ever Get Tired Of Hurting Me" just about done. I used a lot of echo on the steel parts like I used to when I ran two amps so the tone will be quite a bit different.
