Nice, Ricky!

Anyone have a tab for the melody line?

Thank you Ricky...been tearing my hair out.

Ricky, I used to play in a band with Bob Morris, Bob wrote Buckaroo. Check the sheet music and you will see Bob listed as the guy who wrote it. Bob was from Hardy, Arkansas.
I can play what Tom played, and know a couple of ways of playing what the guitar played. I would like to see you diagram your version of what the guitar player played. Do it on E9th.

Keith; way cool info bro. I have no time for Tabbing these days sorry...I do play a harmony part to the original guitar melody; when our guitar player starts it out...ha...but that's just an ear thing; and can be played a few different ways in a few different places...
Ricky

Swell one, Ricki. Thanks a bundle. Steve t

Hey Steve, I just copied the tab and pasted it into Notepad, WordPad, and Microsoft Word and none of them were squished. Let me know if that doesn't work for you and I'll email it to you.

Thanks Jim, I will give it a try. Steve
