The Steel Guitar Forum

Can anyone help me with this one? I'd take the intro, the middle stuff, or whatever anyone could show me. I want to record this for my wife. But I've been waiting until I could put a steel part in it. Who would have thought that it would be me playing it?
I can put up an .mp3 of it on my web site if anyone is willing to tab it for me.

I've upload, to my web site, an .mp3 file of the steel intro. I'd really like to record this for my wife for Christmas. Could one of you nice guys help me with the tab? It's only a few measures. I think there's a 1/2 pedal in it but I'm just starting on pedal steel. So it's hard for me to say.
I put the .mp3 file here

Man, you're a genious. Now a technical question....


My lever to do that 1/2 raise is above my C pedal. It's hard to get to just the A pedal without hitting that lever. Shoule I try to use the outside of my left foot to get to A, or should I pivot on my left heel to get to it? Or should I just do whatever works?


In any case, thanks for the help. it already sounds like what I was trying to do. But I'm sure it would have been a long time before I'd have tried the lever backed up 1 fret.
