  • The tune can be played simple on the high G string with someting like :

    7 - 7 - 4 - 0 - 4 - 2 - 0 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 7 - 7 - 4 -0

    7 - 7 - 4 - 0 - 4 - 2 - 0 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 7 - 7 - 4 -0

    4 - 2 - 0 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 7 - 7 - 4 -0

    You can then ad slide and shifting bas on the low G and D string. That sounds quite close to me :-)

    • Thats a good start, thank you

  • I have a complete tab (finger picking as well as chords) for Man of Constant Sorrow that I published using Guitar Pro.  The tab is for a six string guitar with drop D tuning capoed on the third fret.  Tell me how many strings you are using and the key you want to play it in and I will see if Guitar Pro will convert it correctly.  However you will have to purchase Guitar Pro to print the file and/or play the tune.

    Best regards,

    George

    • Tabs for a 3 string frettless would be great if you can convert it

  • See my blurb on the CBG Tabs group wall praising Wernick's "Bluegrass Songbook." It has DGb 3-string tabs based on the way Ralph Stanley was doing the song in the 1970s--including 6 verses of lyrics.

  • Here's a dulcimer version:

    306209562?profile=originalI got it from "Yet Another Digital Tradition Page" (http://sniff.numachi.com). They have a bunch of other songs as well. You should be able to work out the rest of the song on your own.
