Cigar Box Nation's Ben Baker tuned up his Open G cigar box guitar (tuned GDG) to play the Eric Bogle classic, "The Band Played Walzing Matilda." It's a fitting song for Memorial Day.

Mate, that was well played and sung. The song was written by Eric Bogle, a Scot by birth but resident of Oz for yonks. He has written some very good songs, another in the same vein is "Fleurs of the Forest."
Bit of an ask, but is there any chance of the TABS.
