Keith,
I know and understand we each learn in different ways, some are analytical (myself), some are visual, some are more literal.
Again, I'm not trying to say anything abusive, but....
First and foremost, this is not a "TAB" site, it's a 'learning' site. If all you want is tablature you are missing out on a whole big part of what this place is all about.
Having said that, Ness is very capable of producing a full lesson on the piece as she stated she may, it will take some time if she does so though.
Besides the fact that 'random' is pretty much that, random. Not so much fingerstyle/picking, but fingerstyle/picking. And yes, that remark is intended as stated.
Without going too deep, specifically, there are legal considerations and guidelines to follow. Lynn and Ness have given you a very good foundation and the places here within the site (you are a 'full' member and have access) as to how you can gain the knowledge for not only this particular song, but many, many others.
I am a big fan of "Red Dirt" music, like Jamey and his co-writing bud, Randy Houser, and have met several artist. One of them was once asked the same thing (in a live 'Songwriters Circle' type thing) about the specifics of one of his songs. His reply - "Hell, I don't know, I just know how to play it man". ?What key do you play it in? - "Whatever key my voice feels like that night, I just move the capo up or down".
A direct quote from John Prine - at and during a recent concert here in Dallas as he struggled with a capo "Thank God for capos, otherwise I'd have written everything in G"
To Ness and Lynn - you two, as usual, go over and above and I can not wait to meet up with the two of you in two weeks, what a pleasure that will be.
