Wading in Deep Waters

Another attempt at a Wade Ward tune that's in the County Sales Clawhammer Banjo collection, Vol. 1, tune 2, John Lover's Gone, also done with Guitar Pro in gp4 format. On the recording Wade is in G# tuning (open G capoed up one will work if you want to play along with him). He plays it fast and begins with a thumb lead on drone string, a difficult manuever for the spastic of thumb like me. (It's a tune more suited to someone like Sissy Hankshaw). On the second go round from what I can hear WW does a strum slide variation on the thumb lead. Here it is in ASCII format as well, John Lover's Gone
