Tab Request - Idaho by Gregory Alan Isakov

Post by Stone Preston »

Hey Guys,

Just got my first pedal steel yesterday. Figured Id try and learn something. This song has a pretty simple sounding steel in it. My ear isnt too great and I am having trouble figuring out the intro swells. Sounds like its in E maybe?

Could someone see if they could figure it out and tab it for me? It doesnt seem too difficult but what do I know.

His stuff is really good, I’m about three years in on PSG and have taught myself “If I Go, I’m Going” by Alan and “Empty” by Ray Lamontange, both have similar steel to what I’m hearing in Idaho shouldn’t be to hard to figure out. Here’s a live version of Empty.
