I'm looking for a tab of this beautiful bluegrass song... It consists of a sequence of descending major scale runs, so I think it would be a good one to know and practice too. Has anyone tried this song?

On Dobro yes, but not on steel. That's one I'll have to play around with!

Tim, try this version in A.
R-raises 1/2 tone. L- lowers 1/2 tone.

PART A
2----------8------------7L-----------5-------
3--------------------------------------------
4------8R-------------7------------5---------
5---8A----------8A/7A--------7A/5A------5A/5-
6--------------------------------------------5---
7------------------------------------------------
8-----------------------------------------------5---

ENDING #1
5----------5/5A---------------5----
6-------5B------5B/5-----5/5B/6B------
7----------------------5--------------
8--------------------5----------------
REPEAT PART A AND PLAY ENDING #2
ENDING #2
6---------------------5----------------
7-------------------5----5------5------
8-----4/5---------5--------5/4-----5---
9---4----------------------------------
10--------5A/5-------------------------

I hope this will help and I'll work up the next section.

Thank you Tony! I had forgotten about this position and it sure opens up a lot of speed picking options involving the D# string! Thanks!
